Prudential Regulation Authority Rulebook.

Descriptions

The Prudential Regulation Authority (PRA) invites applications from competent and qualified contractors who would be interested in having their names considered for the contract outlined below:The PRA is a subsidiary of the Bank of England responsible for the prudential regulation and supervision of banks, building societies, credit unions, insurers and major investment firms. As part of its supervision of these firms, the PRA makes and applies rules to PRA-regulated firms.Currently, the PRA makes its rules and associated material available to firms online at http://fshandbook.info/FS/html/PRA/ as part of the PRA Handbook. This website displays the legal rule instruments, and consolidates these instruments into a more accessible and navigable online version of the PRA's rules and associated material. This website and associated service is provided by a third party. The site currently displays the PRA's Handbook alongside the Financial Conduct Authority's (FCA) Handbook.The PRA is procuring a supplier to develop and then manage an online website that solely displays PRA material, which henceforth will be known as the Rulebook.The PRA is looking to retain and improve on the current level of functionality provided by the Handbook website. In particular, the PRA is rewriting, renaming and numbering many of its existing rules, so requires a flexible content management system that can be adapted over time and is not restricted to particular content formats or structure. The PRA would like to improve and update the search capability so that users can more easily find content. The PRA would also like to make the contents of the Rulebook, such as the glossary, easier to engage with through functional requirements, for example through ‘mouse-overs' and other such improvements. It is particularly important to the PRA to ensure that the system and surrounding service delivers:- an efficient and well-managed update process;- high levels of accuracy;- comprehensive monitoring of links between different sections of the rules; and- links out of the Rulebook, so that accuracy and usability over time can be easily maintained.
