WIOB application management
The Ministry of Infrastructure and Waterstaat (I&W) is seeking a service provider for the management and maintenance of the WIOB (Waterinfrastructuur Overzicht en Beheer) application. The assignment concerns continuous service provision in which the supplier is responsible for keeping the software operational, performing updates, ensuring security, and providing technical support to end users. The procurement is conducted under a negotiated procedure without prior publication, meaning the provider can negotiate directly with the ministry regarding price and conditions. The service provider must demonstrate experience with similar infrastructure and water management applications, knowledge of relevant laws and regulations (such as the Water Act and the Infrastructure Act), and the ability to maintain a robust IT infrastructure. The contracting authority expects a high level of availability, rapid incident response, and a clear reporting structure. The procurement is aimed at a long-term collaboration with possibilities for scaling up and expanding functionalities.
