Notice Title
Agora Learning Trust - MFD Partner
Notice Description
The Agora learning Partnership (Agora) encompasses 9 schools and circa 2,693 pupils in Hertfordshire. The Trust Head Office is currently at The Orchard Primary School The Agora Learning Partnership (formerly the Herts for Learning Multi Academy Trust) is an inclusive, collaborative and forward looking Trust where we all work together, learn together and succeed together in order to give all of the children in our academies the best possible education and learning opportunities. The nine schools who currently belong to our Partnership benefit greatly from working collaboratively, providing help and support to one another. The relationship between the schools and the Executive Team and Trustees is also deemed to be a strength of the organisation and the support offered by the Executive Team is very much personalised to the individual needs of our schools. However, this only enhances the provision at our schools, whilst enabling them to maintain their individual identities and the autonomy to deliver a curriculum that reflects their school communities and the needs of the children and young people that they serve; we believe this is the only way to achieve the very best educational standards within our schools and across our Trust - high standards that we continually strive for. This procurement is all about identifying a single MFD partner. At the sole discretion of the Trust any future schools that the Trust may incorporate will also be added to the MFD Partner contract. Any additional schools will co-terminate to the same end date of the initial contract. For the purposes of this shortlisting stage bidders should assume that the Stage 2 will include, but not be limited to; * Provision of a range of multi-functional printing devices to all the schools and the central office * An installation and commissioning service for each device * A handover and training service * A uniform maintenance service for any of the schools who have MFD's across the Trust * An automated service that addresses all consumable needs * A service that includes appropriate print management software * A service that ethically disposes of equipment as necessary * A full service level agreement * Relevant monitoring, management and reporting * A single technical interface to the Trust outsourced ICT Team * Technical interface into the Trusts Managed Service Partner (Note: All MFD delivery will be carried out through this contract and chosen partner). * Value added services. The current estate generates an indicative annual total of circa 1.9m Mono copies The current estate generates an indicative annual total of circa 1.4m Colour copies
