The initial C&C Core Delivery (CCCD) Phase is due to an end in March 2025 and has established the following: · OnCall - A call handling system to capture and triage incidents provided by Hexagon · LifeX - A digital control room communications system to support telephony and radio traffic provided by Frequentis · OnCall Planning and Response - An event planning and management system provided by Hexagon · PowerBI - A Microsoft analytics and reporting system to produce reports and dashboards for operational and corporate purposes The MPS are seeking external supplier support for the Refinement and Deployment (R&D) phase of this ground breaking project which comprises: - Refinement is the process of uplifting the core solution, based on the new requirements identified since initial agreement of scope in 2019. The refinements are currently under review with the operational community and will need to be continually challenged as the programme evolves (e.g. at the end of each testing phase when more is understood). - Deployment is the what, how, and when the programme will deliver the C&C solution into the live operation whilst balancing the business change, technical and operational risk. The deployment of technology has been revised to follow a more modular, iterative roll-out across three 'drops' of functionality. These are: 1) LifeX for Despatch 2) First Contact and 3) Despatch+ For full details of the requirement please see the attachment. The Market Engagement event will be hosted via Microsoft Teams. If you would like to attend please contact Ibrahim Haroun at by 12:00 noon on Wednesday 12th February.
