Description

The University of Worcester wishes to replace its core/distribution and data centre network at its St Johns and City Centre sites. The core and data centre network is a key part of the University's data network that is relied upon for the delivery of learning, teaching and business operation of the University's staff and 12,500 full and part time students. Using the HE Networking - Supply and Services Framework Agreement (HENSS) we wish to form a contract for the supply of the Core Network and create a call off agreement for the supply of replacement switches for a three year period.
