Notice Title

Magna Learning Partnership - IT Services

Notice Description

Magna Learning Partnership ("the Trust") has developed as a Trust since April 2017 and includes a very mixed ICT infrastructure. Some of the academies in the Trust have in-house staff providing support, others external and in some cases external and internal staff work together. We would like to appoint a supplier who can continue the external support currently provided and will be able to provide additional support that we may need over time. The Trust is in a growth phase and the IT strategy is to move towards a common IT infrastructure as funds allow, which will enhance efficiency, collaboration and resilience. The Trust would like to work in partnership with the selected provider to deliver this strategy. The Trust welcomes innovation in the delivery of the service and will consider alternative approaches and solutions where it can be demonstrated that proposals will best support the realisation of desired benefits. The following section provides an overview of the current system, we recommend any future service provider works with the Trust to complete a comprehensive audit of the ICT Infrastructure and services.
