Description

The Authority is moving from a single prime supplier model that delivers its entire data and telephony network, voice and video services, managed infrastructure and data centre support and maintenance requirements to a multi-supplier model including some self-provision.
The Authority sought and selected a Supplier to implement and provide a solution for data access services and local connectivity services (lots 1 and 2 under the Crown Commercial Service's RM1045 Network Services framework).
The main overarching services that the Supplier is required to provide are:
• Gateway Services and management access: access to the Crown Hosting Data Centre and 12 sites of which 9 have Local Server Rooms. This will enable secure access to the platforms and applications hosted on the Authority's infrastructure;
• Connectivity: architecture will provide continuity for ICT services as well as providing connectivity to support the Authority's Digitisation and Sourcing Programme.
