Description

Leicester City Council requires a fully managed website hosting service. As a local authority, Leicester City Council provides residents and businesses with a range of essential services, many of which rely upon the websites and digital offerings that the council manages. It is therefore critical that a highly resilient, secure, and robust hosting solution is in place to ensure maximum site availability and to reduce the risk of significant problems and costs for the Council.
Most of the websites owned by Leicester City Council are built in ASP.NET using Umbraco: https://umbraco.com. There are also a small number of HTML based pages and website re-directs which require hosting.
