Detailed Description Smart Card & Identity Management - secure identity verification

University is launching a bold and innovative digital transformation programme centred on the implementation of SMART cards and advanced identity management. This initiative is designed to strengthen our identification capabilities improving the wider user experience and is to be driven by the adoption of a cutting-edge approach supported by market-leading technology. This strategic investment will replace the University's outdated ImageBase system (introduced in 2015) and photo uploader (introduced in 2006), which no longer support the university's operational, security or digital transformation needs.

The current anticipated project approach is to deliver a modern, cloud-native identity and credential management solution to support around 7,000 staff, 77,000 student accounts and a wide range of visitors across our campuses. As a minimum, the solution must enable secure identity verification, smartcard issuance and management and integrate smoothly with the University's established Joiners, Movers, and Leavers (JML) processes.

Identified key deliverables that will form part of this requirement include (but is not limited to):

•Cloud solutions replacing Smartcard system (ImageBase) and Identity application (MIM).

•Mobile-friendly platform for photo capture and validation, replacing the legacy photo uploader.

•Transition from Mifare Classic 1K to a secure credential card storage such as Mifare DESFire EV3.

•Smooth interoperability with key business applications such as SITS, Oracle HCM, Entra, ADFS, PACOM and other student and library systems.

•Architecture designed to support mobile credentials and future digital identity options and centralised dashboard for card issuance, usage tracking, and operational reporting.

•Cyber secure offerings to align to National Cyber Security Centres Cyber Assessment Framework
