Notice Information
Notice Title
Gartner Expansion
Notice Description
UoB ITS already have an existing agreement with Gartner that has another year to run. Rather than source a separate capability from Gartner or another analysis provider, it made economic and commercial sense to enhance our existing agreement to service this need.
Lot Information
Lot 1
As part of the Target Architecture work for UoB, it is vital that Digital and Technology trends are understood and contextualised as part of the landscape for IT at UoB. One of the best ways to do this is to engage with an objective analysis and insight service such as Gartner. The most valuable and efficient way to provide this thinking into the architecture is to provide another seat to the Head of Architecture and Design rather than for that role top rely on seeking such insights and analyses from an existing seated member. It also provides the opportunity to establish frequent analysis in relation to the sector and the technologies that serve it together with what other good organisations are doing with technology to service business capabilities that may be common to our organisation.

Procurement Information
ITS and UoB have built a number of Strategies based upon the analysis gained from the arrangement with Gartner. To move to another consultancy now would potentially invalidate the direction of those strategies and any current work underway. They provide excellent context for us within the sector enabling us to benchmark against other peer universities, We are looking to engage with a peer network of other institutions that use Gartner so that we can share and gain understanding of the analysis as it pertains to Universities in a general context without giving away any competitive advantage of course. To move to another supplier would reduce our access to strong and current analysis together with future trend analysis.
