## About this tender

How can we use technology to create the most efficient and secure supply chain

for public sector procurements, especially in regard to making the requirements,

standards and rules of public sector procurement as efficient to establish as

possible, both for the private sector businesses applying for contracts, and the

organisation assessing those applications; focusing on two initial use cases - cyber

security, design and accessibility.

Supply chains, integral to all organizations, pose a significant risk due to their size,

complexity, and the potential of severely disrupted services if compromised.

Currently, securing supply chains is resource-intensive and often requires manual

efforts from specialist staff which can cause issues - particularly for SMEs.

If we can build a single, effective and efficient system, we could dispense with the

current practice of creating single-use questionnaires for each and every

procurement exercise. This would have significant benefits including resource and

time savings, for both procuring and tendering organisations.

Currently, we do not have this: existing tools provide some data analysis, but

further solutions could enhance this process.

While cyber security and accessibility have been noted as the initial use cases, the

intention is that a successful solution would incorporate all procurement

requirements – for example accessibility, usability and design standards.
