Description
The purpose of this RFI is to gather information that may be useful to the Ministry regarding technology and market trends with respect to a potential future procurement or other process or initiative. This RFI is not: (i) a tender notice or call for tenders; (ii) a notice of intended procurement; or (iii) a notice of planned procurement.
In July 2018, the Ministry of Education and Child Care (the Ministry) entered into an Enhanced Cybersecurity Services Agreement with IBM Canada Ltd. to provide implementation and ongoing management and maintenance support for firewalls installed to protect the K-12 school districts. This agreement is set to expire July 2027.
The current services provided under this agreement have met their targets and have evolved with current state technology in the security services space. For future state service delivery, however, the Ministry wants to ensure that any future acquisition of Enhanced Cybersecurity Services has been based on a thorough consideration of developments in best practices and technology standards that are trending in the marketplace.
