His Majesty's Revenue and Customs (HMRC) is a pivotal entity within the UK Government, responsible for managing over £800 billion annually and serving a broad public sector customer base of more than 5 million business customers and 45 million individual customers. This RFI is initiated to enhance our Security Operations Centre (SOC) capabilities to safeguard against sophisticated cyber threats, which is crucial for maintaining the integrity of the UK's financial infrastructure and ensuring public trust. We are seeking answers to our questions outlined in the RFI Documentation that will be essential for supporting critical enhancements to our SOC.

This RFI seeks solution and service related information that would be capable of enhancing HMRC's SOC through the deployment of advanced technological tools and expertise. Ideal partners will demonstrate a clear technological roadmap aligned with HMRC's strategic needs, show a commitment to effective communication, and provide flexible and scalable solutions. A strong focus on long-term collaboration is essential to meet our cybersecurity objectives, as outlined in the RFI documents, effectively safeguarding against the continuously changing global geopolitical and economic landscape.
