Provision of Amazon Web Services Cloud Consumption

Tender description

This competition is solely for the provision of AWS cloud consumption (compute and storage) only under the Public and Community IaaS/PaaS (Infrastructure as a Service / Platform as a Service). Private IaaS is currently covered by the Authority’s Datacentres. Note there is no requirement for Cloud management services (people) under this competition. See RFT for full list of main AWS services currently in use. The Authority currently has 12 AWS (Amazon Web Services) accounts managed in the AWS cloud. For operational reasons the Authority requires that the successful tenderer must maintain a structure without any impact to IT operations. To achieve this the tenderer must confirm as part of their response that the Authority will be able to maintain this structure which allows the following: AWS Single Sign-On (SSO), AWS Config is centrally deployed, centralise billing and the ability to apply saving plans shared across multiple accounts, separate AWS Organization into three different Operational areas and No root (administrator) access is required by the Tenderer or inherited on Authority’s accounts. Full details of all requirements are available in the RFT document attached to this notice
