De Nederlandsche Bank intends to phase out the current news provision solution, which is built on outdated technology, by 1 April 2025 at the latest. The enterprise search solution NaVi will be replaced by Microsoft Cognitive Search, but this does not yet offer a suitable alternative for news provision. Therefore, it has been decided to realize the news portal within an external platform from a commercial party. The procurement focuses on selecting a supplier capable of delivering a modern, scalable, and secure news portal that integrates seamlessly with the bank's existing IT infrastructure and meets legal and compliance requirements.
