Notice Information

Notice Title

Microsoft Enterprise Licence Agreement

Notice Description

Stonewater has operated a Microsoft-first approach for a significant number of systems and solutions since its inception in 2015, supported by a full enterprise agreement for licences. These licences have always been purchased through reselling partners, based on Microsoft's standard method of engagement with its customer base. The existing agreement, which commenced in 2021 (following a competitive tender process) is due to expire at the end of March 2025 and requires renewing, to reflect the volumes and types of licences required by the Group now, and to support change and future developments over the next 3 years.
