Under Additional Terms and Conditions it is stated that "No home working and no company / personal laptops permitted". Can the Authority confirm that this task will be conducted on Authority IT systems and that these IT systems (including user accounts) will be available at contract start? If Authority IT is not available how will the work be conducted? IT accounts will be applied for once the candidate has been selected, there is a 10 day SLA for obtaining accounts and this will be done at the earliest opportunity. As this requirement is for an SC cleared person due to working on documents that are above official-sensitive it makes sense that no company/personal laptops are permitted.
