    Brief

    Nest Invest seeks a partner to support Phase 4b activities for implementing a Target Operating Model. The partner will assist with pre-implementation and procurement activities for two key initiatives: (1) finalizing investment team requirements for an Asset Allocation Tool, completing all tender documentation and approvals to launch the procurement process, and (2) conducting commercial and solution design work to prepare for Northern Trust Data Platform implementation. This is a continuation of Phase 4 work and focuses on preparation activities that will enable subsequent implementation phases. Suppliers should have experience in investment operations, procurement management, and financial technology solution design.
