Notice Description

Lot Information
Lot 1
An exercise was completed to determine how to source the IT Asset Management Solution and the the direct model was preferred over a reseller option. ServiceNow was determined to be the supplier to fully meet the requirements. There is an existing contract with an expiry date of 31 July 2025 and the ITAM will be aligned with the existing contract with a co-termination date. Additional information: Traditionally, asset management solutions can only monitor usage and licenses for software that is installed on a device. ServiceNow will do this, but will also monitor SaaS applications accessed via a browser and the platform has extensive functionality for monitoring and managing SaaS usage. This will give insights into which SaaS applications are being used, and by whom which could flag any GDPR issues or any overlapping software. License management of SaaS applications should bring a reduction in costs and allow for better license management. Any over licensing will be flagged up either from built in integrations or using APIs.
Procurement Information
