    Brief

    This opportunity involves early renewal of a Certificate Manager contract to ensure uninterrupted business continuity and minimize operational risk for external-facing websites and applications. Although the current contract does not expire until June 30th, 2027, early renewal is necessary due to significant changes in certificate authority lifecycle requirements. Industry standards are reducing publicly trusted SSL/TLS certificate validity periods to 200 days beginning March 2026 and further reducing to 100 days starting March 2027. Suppliers should be prepared to provide continuous certificate management services that accommodate these shortened validity periods and support seamless certificate deployment across all external-facing digital assets.
