What is being bought

Published requirement description

The Government manages the records of the former British Coal Corporation. This is

a combination of business documents and personal data which includes a significant

number of historic occupational health claims files. In part, this is to enable us to

respond to disease/illness personal injury claims arising from working for the

Corporation pre-privatisation in 1994. We also have a duty to ensure that the

information is kept safe and is managed securely.

We require a service that enables:

  • secure storage of over 2.8m physical records and 47m digital records
  • the ability to retrieve these promptly and to provide them to the public and the

Department’s contractors as appropriate

  • scanning of physical records for onward processing
  • preparation and transfer of records to The National Archives
  • disposal of records no longer required
  • the hosting of a digital platform that allows contractors to access records
  • the facility to search documents in terms of categories, e.g various types of

colliery minutes and key work searches.
