As the national governing body for orienteering in the UK, British Orienteering supports around 100 affiliated clubs, thousands of members and a wide range of events and activities across the country. Effective, reliable and secure IT systems are increasingly important to how the organisation operates and how it supports clubs, volunteers, members and the wider orienteering community.
The tender provides an opportunity for an IT services provider to work with British Orienteering as it continues to develop its digital infrastructure, improve the way technology supports its staff and volunteers, and ensure that its IT environment is secure, resilient and fit for the future.
British Orienteering is looking for a provider that can offer a responsive, proactive and partnership-based approach, with the capability to understand the needs of a national governing body working with a largely volunteer-led network.
