The requirement is expected to include the delivery of a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) solution, incorporating web hosting, database maintenance, data management, service desk provision, and ongoing support and maintenance. The system is business-critical and supports the management and validation of plant usage data across the network, underpinning safety assurance, compliance with standards, and supply chain performance management.
