Provision of a Police and Justice Text Redaction Tool - Find a Tender (find-tender.service.gov.uk)

This procurement is for the provision of a multi-supplier framework agreement (Framework Agreement), for the provision of a PDS Text Redaction Tool for documentation. The solution will include software, licencing and support and maintenance requirement. The solution will provide a full audit trail of activities and gives forces the ability to be in control of their data.

The redaction process for text requires a solution that is intuitive, can identify selected individual and/or recurring text, adheres to PII and data protection regs dynamically, within a range of document formats and handwritten scanned docs.

The expectation is that individual or multiple docs can be redacted simultaneously without increasing the file size of the document(s).

It is expected that the tool will integrate with existing systems (such as RMS systems) to enable a smooth transition of data and ensure all redacted documents are linked to a case where applicable.
