Technical requirements: The next generation of national digital identity and signing in Denmark (NDIS) is to be used in the public as well as the private sector. It is expected to consist of the following major areas of functionality: 1. Identity and Authentication. Managing the life-cycle of identities and their related credentials. 2. Advanced Electronic Signature. Securely handling the electronic signing of documents. 3. Client functionality. The user-facing parts of the log-in and signing processes. 4. Business-related functionality. Functionality aimed specifically at businesses' needs and the need for associating employee IDs with organizations. 5. Certificate Authority functionality. The Public Key Infrastructure part of the solution. 6 System integration functionality. Adapting the other functionality areas to the existing systems landscape. Along with the functionality areas described above, the solution will integrate closely with its sister platform, ‘NemLog-in’, which is a separate project outside the core NDIS project. NemLog-in serves the role as login broker system for the public sector — the public-facing login solution built on top of the NDIS projects described here. The Danish Agency for Digitisation is currently planning for 1 or more public procurements for the provision of such a national identity and signing solution.
On behalf of the Danish Public Authorities, the Danish Agency for Digitisation is planning the development of a new national digital identity and signing solution. The vision is that the solution should be applied broadly in the public as well as the private sector as the current NemID-solution — which currently has more than 55 000 000 transactions per month. The next generation solution will replace the existing NemID-solution which citizens use for accessing the Digital Letter Box as well as for digital self-service — both of which are mandatory for most Danish citizens, for online banking and for interaction with various third-parties. The Danish Agency for Digitisation is planning a public procurement procedure with the possibility of entering multiple contracts for providing next generation of national digital identity and signing.
The Agency for Digitisation invites potential contractors, i.e. businesses and service providers operating in the relevant areas, to a presentation of business needs and expectations regarding the NDIS as a preparation for the technical dialogue with the market which is expected to take place in autumn 2016. The information meeting takes place on Monday, 27.6.2016 at 14:00 CET. Potential contractors are kindly requested to register their participation by submitting name and contact information as well as a short description of the company's primary areas of expertise regarding digital identity and signing in the registration form on this website: http://www.digst.dk/Servicemenu/English/News/InfoMeeting-NextGen-eID by no later than the Monday, 20.6.2016 at 14:00 CET. The information submitted will be published afterwards.
