The Australian National Audit Office (ANAO) has issued a request for quote (RFQ) for the supply of specialist protective and cybersecurity services to assist ANAO with performing an ICT controls assessment and updating the ANAO Protective Security Risk Review document.

As part of the specialist security services, the supplier must support the organisation to review and update its Protective Risk Security Review (PRSR) document, ensuring that they reflect current and emerging ANAO business and security risks, as well as review and update key performance metrics for ICT security.

The supplier must also review the application of existing technical ICT Controls and provide support to document ICT Controls in a format suitable for ongoing security management reporting, maintenance and continuous improvement.

In addition, the RFQ specifies the supplier must prepare an Essential Eight Security Risk Management Plan using the existing ANAO template, and present and deliver findings to ANAO stakeholders. The presentation needs to be both suitable for management yet have a sufficient level of technical detail.

For the successful supplier to get over the line, they must essentially demonstrate they’ve done it before through case studies illustrating similar projects successfully undertaken in the last two years.

Estimated start date for the project is August 11 and the proposed initial contract term is three months, with a possible two-month extension.

The RFQ closes at 11:59pmon Monday June 29.
