DESCRIPTION OF PROCUREMENT
The University is conducting an RFP for Sailpoint Implementation Partner
The University of Toronto is undertaking an enterprise-wide implementation of SailPoint.
The University of Toronto is faced with the challenge of simultaneously providing greater security for its digital assets and computer systems, while providing a greater and more varied range of online services. The bulk of the University’s current Identity Access Management (IAM) services were designed and implemented in the late 1990s. Although this infrastructure has been enhanced over time, these improvements have been implemented in a piecemeal and sometimes uncoordinated manner. As U of T continues to grow in size and complexity, the current predominantly manual approach to manage identities and access has led to inefficiencies, service gaps and risks. The current tools and infrastructure are complex which require them to be replaced by a stable, robust and centralized identity and access management (IAM) solution. This would provide a solid foundation for future expansion of the Institute’s central identity and access management services.
The procurement is anticipated to involve negotiation. An electronic auction is not anticipated.
