In plain English
The British Council wants to buy an online software system to manage its business continuity programme, which is the planning for how the organisation keeps working during disruptions. The system will hold plan templates, governance documents, training and test records, and incident information in one place, with an estimated value of £207,000.
What the buyer wants
• Provide clear, easy-to-use business impact analysis and business continuity plan templates, with guidance for staff who need help with yearly updates. • Act as a single storage point for all business continuity governance documents, and include a training and exercising module that tracks test learning, assigns actions to staff and confirms they are carried out. • Support the internal team's incident management and emergency information sharing, and bring compliance reporting and all business continuity admin tasks into one environment.
Requirements
What could rule a small business out (our reading of the notice, written with AI): The notice requires a single supplier to deliver all five requirements as one integrated system, so a small business without the capacity to deliver a full platform across all areas, at a value of about £207,000, would most likely be ruled out.
