Industrial Security Systems Transformation (ISST) - Draft Request for Proposal
EP243-170549/A
Public Services and Procurement Canada (PSPC) is identified as one of ten Lead Security Agencies for the Government of Canada. PSPC provides leadership and coordination activities to help ensure the application of security safeguards through all phases of the contracting process within the scope of the Industrial Security Program (ISP).
The portfolio of business applications that support the deliveryof Industrial Security services is largely outdated and unsustainable. This shortcoming hinders the Industrial Security Sector’s (ISS) efforts to meet the expectations of its Industry and Government users and partners. In order to address this problem, the ISS is exploring the opportunity to modernize the technological platform that supports its operations through the Industrial Security Systems Transformation (ISST) project.
The scope and intent of the ISST project is to replace the current complement of aging systems supporting the business functions within the ISS with a unified solution that better addresses the current and emerging needs of Industry and GC.
This Draft RFP is intended to provide industry with initial context and details pertaining to PSPC’s requirement. For the purposes of this Draft RFP, the target audience is potential suppliers of the Solution. Potential suppliers are invited to submit feedback and ask questions on this Draft RFP which will be considered by Canada priorto releasing the final RFP.
