Description

This Award Notice follows the University of Chester seeking tenders for the Supply of Rubrik Enterprise Edition and Cloud Vault under the Software Licence Resellers (SLRA) Framework Agreement, Number: ITS4042 SU using SLRA Lot 4 Other Software as members of NWUPC. As permitted under the framework University of Chester may appoint one provider to service this further competition, whilst reserving the right to not award at all. The reasons for tendering specifically for Rubrik Enterprise Edition are:

1. The University was extending the cloud coverage of the existing system to on-premises
2. We require it to be part of the single pane of glass for administration and parity with the cloud backup
3. It gave the flexibility to move protected workloads (data) from on-premises to the cloud and have them protected by our existing cloud backup (Rubrik).

All values in this Award Notice have been rounded up.
