Work description
Defra's Security Operations Centre (SOC) is reliant on a hybrid model for protective monitoring, whereby Defra's internal SOC provides coverage during standard business hours (09:00-17:00) Monday to Friday and an external supplier delivers monitors outside these hours. Defra is seeking to reprocure this out-of-hours Protective Monitoring SOC service when the incumbent contract expires on 31st October 2026.
Contract Term: The Authority is seeking an initial contract term of 3-years, with two options to extend for 1-year each (3+1+1).
