What this covers

  • Provision of Microsoft Services Support and Associated Services (Ref 0384)

    The Contracting Authority seeks to establish a Framework Agreement with a suitably qualified tenderer to meet the requirements for the support and maintenance of Microsoft and associated services. The Contracting Authority ICT infrastructure is a closely integrated ecosystem, uniquely configured to meet the organisation’s operational needs. While the Contracting Authority ICT staff possess expertise across the majority of the Microsoft product suite and related technologies, external support remains a critical component in ensuring the efficient and uninterrupted operation of day-to-day services. The Contracting Authority invites responses from suitably qualified tenderers to be appointed as their Enterprise ICT Microsoft Services Framework Agreement partner, in accordance with the specific requirements outlined in the tender documentation. It should be noted that these requirements reflect the current Microsoft-based environment, and the Framework must allow for flexibility to accommodate additional or alternative software and services related to Microsoft applications and associated technologies.
