Description
This procurement relates to the replacement of critical server infrastructure located at the buying organization data center. The equipment underpins the organisation's core IT environment and supports the full production infrastructure estate. The current hardware has been in service for approximately 7-11 years and is approaching or has reached end-of-life and end-of-support status. Continued operation of unsupported infrastructure presents significant operational, security, and compliance risk. This is a capital replacement of essential infrastructure and does not represent an expansion of scope or increase in capacity beyond current operational requirements.
