Description

Norfolk County Council is looking to purchase network equipment and services and a replacement virtual server infrastructure and hyperconverged virtual server infrastructure. This procurement is being split into two lots: Lot 1 (Network) and Lot 2 (Server). Lot 1 - The requirement of the Provider will be to deliver network equipment and services to replace its existing legacy Huawei based network solution, Wifi, Firewalls, switch gear, access points and optionally the content filtering solution. This will also support and enhance the existing zero trust network strategy. These services are used by all staff across Norfolk County Council and some partners. Lot 2 - The requirement of the Provider will be to deliver a replacement virtual server infrastructure and hyperconverged virtual server infrastructure. Full details of the requirement can be found in the Statement of Requirements documents which are supported by an additional document outlining the strategic objectives and overview of the existing service (there are separate documents for Network and Server), all of which will form a schedule to the terms and conditions of the contract. The values in this notice are estimated and we expect they could change during the procurement.
