In plain English
The Royal Borough of Greenwich wants a company to take over the running of its whole computer network, including the connections between its offices, Wi-Fi, internet access, security systems and phone and video calling. The network covers several hundred devices across many sites, used by about 4,000 staff serving around 300,000 residents, with an estimated value of £16 million.
What the buyer wants
• Fully manage the council's network across all sites, including local and wide area networks, Wi-Fi, internet connections and remote access. • Run network security, including firewalls and secure access, and connect the council to cloud and software-as-a-service platforms, plus support its Teams phone system. • Work within a Service Integration and Management (SIAM) model, coordinating with council teams, incumbent suppliers, strategic partners and third-party providers, and advise on network design and best practice.
Requirements
What could rule a small business out: The £16 million estimated value and the requirement to run the whole borough's network estate end-to-end, across several hundred devices and all council sites, within a multi-supplier SIAM model would most likely rule out a small business.
