Description

Notes
-----

The successful bidder will be given more information about the network post award, for security reasons only basic information is provided below.

Wigston - Existing equipment.
-----------------------------
The Core switch currently is an Extreme Networks Black Diamond 8100 with 12x10gbps XFP ports. This connects to 5 stacks of Extreme Summit switches which will be replaced at a later stage, 30 switches in all (1440 ports). Wigston connects back to Hinckley for internet and system access.

Hinckley - Existing equipment.
------------------------------
The Core switch currently is a Cisco Catalyst 4510R+E with Sup7A line cards. This switch uplinks to a mixture of POE and non POE 2960 series Catalyst switches 23 units in total. The Hinckley core switch is technically the hub of the network with our Firewall being located at this site and 1gbps intersite links from all other campuses ingress here for internet access.

Connectivity from core switch to edge switch is provided by means of x2 1gbps LACP RJ45 connections, therefore the Hinckley campus will initially require more copper connectivity until such time as the edge equipment is replaced with 10gbps uplink capable equipment.

Due to time constraints and other projects we do not require quotes for the edge equipment described above. This initial engagement is to replace two campuses core switch equipment only.

Objectives.

ID 5590036 - DoF - IT Assist - FRAMEWORK FOR DISPOSAL SERVICES FOR IT EQUIPMENT, ELECTRONIC AND ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT

The Department of Finance - IT Assist wishes to establish a Framework Agreement for Disposal Services for IT equipment, electronic and electrical equipment for use by the Northern Ireland Public Sector including Northern Ireland Civil Service Departments, Agencies and Non Departmental Public Bodies. Unauthorised disclosure of information / sensitive data is a major risk mainly due to the increasing dependence on electronic storage systems and the use of disposable media. Organisations have therefore developed asset disposal strategies that can require data to be deleted from media and equipment sometimes prior to its permanent removal from site for disposal and/or recycling or for assured data destruction. The framework therefore seeks to appoint Suppliers to; securely and irreversibly delete data from a range of media either on the customer’s premises or offsite; and securely and legally dispose of redundant information and communications technology equipment and media. Once the Framework Agreement has been established, secondary competitions will be completed for each disposal required. The Framework period is for 4 years. For further details regarding the requirement, please refer to document entitled 'ID 5590036 – Framework Specification'.
