Tender Copilot software is ultimately hosted on Amazon Web Services (AWS)

Introduction

Tender Copilot is an advanced AI-powered bid writing platform designed to help construction firms secure contracts by enhancing the quality and compliance of tender submissions. By leveraging Amazon Web Services (AWS) as its ultimate hosting provider, Tender Copilot ensures a secure, scalable, and globally compliant infrastructure.

Data securing and privacy is at the heart of Tender Copilots core values and of utmost importance to us.  Ensuring we select the right partners to help support us with this is critical – AWS provides a robust foundation that meets international security standards and aligns with our own high standard of data security and privacy.

Compliance with Industry Standards and Regulations

AWS is certified under a range of internationally recognised compliance frameworks, which provides a robust infrastructure for Tender Copilot Clients.  Some key standards include:

  • ISO 27001:2022 – This international standard for information security management ensures that AWS maintains robust security controls for data handling and storage, crucial for construction firms dealing with confidential contract details.
  • GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) – AWS provides compliance frameworks that enable construction businesses to handle personal and commercial data in line with UK and EU regulations, reducing the risk of penalties for non-compliance.
  • Cyber Essentials Plus – Many UK public sector contracts require Cyber Essentials certification, and AWS’s security framework supports compliance with these guidelines, ensuring that companies using Tender Copilot meet minimum cybersecurity requirements.
  • NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) Framework – AWS is designed to align with the NIST Cybersecurity Framework, a globally respected standard for security and risk management. By following NIST guidelines, AWS enhances risk mitigation strategies through structured security controls, proactive threat detection, and compliance measures that support resilience against cyber threats.

As Tender Copilot is ultimately hosted on AWS it inherits the benefits that these compliance certifications bring, streamlining adherence to industry regulations and best practices.

Security Measures to Protect Tender Copilots Clients Data

AWS employs multiple layers of security to safeguard data, ensuring Tender Copilots clients can securely store, process, and share sensitive information:

  • Data Encryption – AWS provides end-to-end encryption for data at rest and in transit, ensuring that confidential project data remains protected from unauthorised access.
  • Network Security – AWS’s advanced network architecture includes firewalls, distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) protection, and intrusion detection systems, reducing the risk of cyberattacks.
  • Identity and Access Management (IAM) – Role based access control ensures that only authorised personnel can access specific documents, preventing internal data leaks and enhancing accountability.
  • Continuous Monitoring: AWS monitors its infrastructure 24/7 to prevent and respond to potential threats proactively.

Reliability You Can Depend On
AWS offers robust and redundant data storage systems, designed to ensure your data is always available and safeguarded against loss. This reliability is backed by industry-leading uptime and data durability guarantees.

Conclusion

Tender Copilot choice to have AWS as our partners, ensures that construction companies have a secure, scalable, and compliant solution for bid management.  AWS’s extensive security certifications, robust encryption, and global infrastructure provide the reliability and compliance required for handling sensitive data.  With AWS as its foundation, Tender Copilot empowers businesses to focus on securing contracts with confidence, knowing their data and operations are fully protected.
