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.

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.
