What is the intended timeframe for the new platform?
BVO NL aims to have a legally contracted, implemented, and future-proof platform for the population studies available by mid-June 2027.
What specific requirements are set for the suitability of the IT partner?
The IT partner must be able to meet the technical and policy requirements of an Azure landing zone and explicitly indicate why they are suitable for the management of the data warehouse.
