The Council of Europe Development Bank (CEB) is issuing a call for tenders for the supply, installation, configuration and commissioning of a privileged access management system (PAM).
The Council of Europe Development Bank (CEB) is a multilateral development bank with a social vocation. Established on 16 April 1956 in order to bring solutions to the problems of refugees, its scope of action has progressively widened to other sectors of action directly contributing to strengthening social cohesion in Europe.
The CEB represents a major instrument of the policy of solidarity in Europe in order to help its 41 Member States achieve sustainable and equitable growth: it thus participates in financing social projects, responds to emergency situations and, in so doing, contributes to improving the living conditions of the most disadvantaged population groups.
The CEB contributes to the implementation of socially oriented investment projects through three sectoral lines of action, namely:
The CEB is based on a Partial Agreement among Council of Europe Member States and, according to its Articles of Agreement, is subject to the Council's overall authority. Signed on 16 April 1956 by eight countries, the Bank is the first of the Partial Agreements to have been concluded.
The CEB thus operates within the framework of the Council of Europe and supports its priorities but it has its own legal personality.
At the end of 2016, approximately 200 permanent staff members of 31 different nationalities were employed at the Bank all based in Paris. The two official languages are French and English.
The CEB IT infrastructure needs a complete solution to protect, monitor, detect, alert, and respond to privileged account activity so that controls can be put in place to proactively protect against, detect and respond to in-progress cyber-attacks before they strike vital systems and compromise sensitive data.
Contract duration will be for four (4) years and renewable for a maximum of four (4) additional years. The total duration of this contract may not exceed eight (8) years.
Deadline for request for any clarifications from the CEB: 08 November 2017 Midnight (all times are in the Paris time zone)
Companies interested in that tender need to demonstrate that they are not in one of the following situations:
Interested companies can use any means at their disposal to show that they are not in such situations, preferably court certifications on absence of criminal convictions and declarations or court certificates in relation to the absence of bankruptcy procedures against the company. Certifications can be replaced by a sworn/solemn statement made before a judicial authority or notary or, failing that, a solemn statement made before an administrative authority or a qualified professional body in the country of establishment. The CEB reserves the right to request the abovementioned certifications prior to the signature of any contract coming out of this tender.
Offers from bidders which fail to demonstrate that they are not in the abovementioned situations will not be evaluated. The documentary proof or statements may be in original or copy. If copies are submitted, the originals must be provided to the CEB upon request. Tenderers are reminded that the provision of false information in this tender procedure may lead to their exclusion from the tender procedure.
Language: The offers, all correspondence and documents related to the tender exchanged by the tenderer and the CEB must be written in English.
