Overview

Background Information Scottish Water is looking to refresh the existing Identity and Access Management (IDAM) technologies (including Microsoft Identity Manager), with a Cloud Based solution and the implementation of a fully supported model (including third party alliance management).

The solution will ensure that Scottish Water will have control of the End-to-End lifecycle of the user accounts (internal and external third parties), as well as evidencing simplification and improvements to the existing process and technology currently in place. The end solution must also ensure there is an enhanced level of resilience for critical national infrastructure whilst removing manual interventions, improving existing control processes and maintaining relevant policies and compliance (e.g. UK DPA and General Data Protection Regulation).

The successful solution must be able to support Scottish Water’s technical future expectations and is expected to provide the technical capabilities for and transform how the organisation approaches its Identity and Access Management needs and processes. New Contract Requirements End to End solution/application capable of managing and transforming the Scottish Water Identity and Access Management Processes which includes:

Policy, Support and Maintenance Business Process Optimisation

The solution must be able to support all Scottish Water employees and third-party identities– mapping of these requirements is required (includes Europe (EU) and other offshore locations). Data storage must follow Scottish Water policies on geographical requirements.

Although remote working is likely, where face to face collaboration is necessary, it is expected Scottish Water’s principal office at The Bridge, 6 Buchanan Gate, Glasgow G33 6FB will be deemed the project base address, and any travel or associated cost would be absorbed by the vendor and not Scottish Water.
