        "title": "Support and Maintenance of BFI's Unified Communications Platform",
        "description": "The BFI requires bidding for the support and maintenance of its current Unified Communications platform.

The platform is deployed to provide UC capability throughout the BFI, in areas such as telephony, voice mail, online conferencing, video, IM and collaboration. The successful bidder should have extensive technical expertise in supporting a Skype for Business environment, utilising SIP and Enterprise Voice. The current deployment comprises Skype Front-End Servers, Edge Servers for remote access, an Office Web Apps server, Audiocodes SBC's for external voice calls via SIP, and integrates with Microsoft Exchange 2010. In addition, the BFI has deployed the Anywhere365 Contact Centre to facilitate our Box Office and Membership teams (based in Southbank) processing calls from customers and BFI members.
