Operational Technology Backup and Data Collection Tool Procurement

This procurement opportunity seeks a dedicated backup collection solution for Operational Technology (OT) environments that captures and securely stores complete data states of critical OT assets across multiple sites as an emergency data recovery resource. The solution must collect full backup states including configurations, control logic, firmware, hardware metadata, and associated files. It must support both automated, policy-driven backup collection and authorized manual backup initiation using secure, non-intrusive protocols that do not interact with OT control or programming interfaces and have no operational or safety impact. Key requirements include vendor-agnostic deployment, full on-premise or private cloud capability, air-gapped environment support, comprehensive audit trails, and compliance reporting functionality. Prospective suppliers must demonstrate the ability to deliver these core capabilities.
