    Brief

    The NHS Business Services Authority (NHSBSA) is seeking input from suppliers on designing and delivering an independent business continuity exercise. This is a market research opportunity (RFI) to test the NHSBSA's incident response capabilities in a realistic, catastrophic scenario such as ransomware attacks or data integrity breaches. The exercise should reflect NHS sector complexity and have organisation-wide impact across multiple services and directorates. The supplier will engage with the NHSBSA to gather information before designing the exercise, which will be delivered over half a day followed by a same-day debrief. Two reports will be required: a high-level summary and a detailed analysis, both containing key observations, strengths and weaknesses analysis, and prioritised recommendations. This RFI is a market research exercise only and does not guarantee a future procurement. Interested parties must register via the NHSBSA portal by the stated deadline. Responses are due by 3 November 2025 at 12:00 noon BST. Participation is limited to organisations meeting the definition of 'economic operator' under procurement regulations. The NHSBSA will ensure equal treatment of all participants and will not be responsible for costs incurred in preparing responses.
