Crossing the Border - BX/Helios

This notice is for the award of the Crossing the Border (CtB) BX and Helios contract. Crossing the Border (CtB) is the steady state services and products which control the flow of people and services across the UK border. This is done principally via the Primary Control Points, mediated by a Border Force officer, or via an e-gate indirectly supervised by Border Force officer/s. Information from ports is processed by a central collection of systems, hosted in the cloud and on premise. These systems are built on top of a number of infrastructure platforms, leveraging a hybrid cloud model.
