The solution enables the recovery of HP servers (and the appropriate data related to them) from a Netbackup based disc and tape backup system. The Backups are taken over private Ethernet connection from the Council's Data Centre to storage on the supplier's site. The contract to fulfil the requirement described above commenced on 1 August 2017. The contract provided for an initial 2 year term with an option to extend for TWO further 1 Year periods. The options to extend have been exercised and the contract was due to expire on 31 July 2021. A further 12 months extension was agreed utilising PPN notice 01/20, therefore the current agreement is due to expire on 31 July 2022. This notice confirms that an extension of 12 months until 31 July 2023 has become necessary due to the impact of COVID 19 upon the future delivery of ICT services at the Authority. We can confirm that the specification, pricing and terms and conditions of the original agreement will not be altered, with the sole modification being the change to contract duration (to be charged at existing contract rates).", "contractPeriod": { "durationInDays": 360 } } ], "items": [ { "id": "1", "deliveryAddresses": [ { "region": "UKG32" } ], "relatedLot": "1" } ] }, "awards": [ { "id": "015558-2022-CONTRACT - 00015400-1", "relatedLots": [ "1" ], "title": "SOL - Disaster Recovery", "status": "active", "suppliers": [ { "id": "GB-FTS-54716", "name": "Adam Continuity a division of Centerprise International" }, { "id": "GB-FTS-54717", "name": "Adam Continuity a division of Centerprise International" } ] } ], "parties": [ { "id": "GB-FTS-37564", "name": "Solihull Metropolitan Borough Council", "identifier": { "legalName": "Solihull Metropolitan Borough Council" }, "address": { "streetAddress": "Council House, Manor Square", "locality": "Solihull", "region": "UKG32", "postalCode": "B913QB", "countryName": "United Kingdom" }, "contactPoint": { "name": "Corporate Procurement Service", "telephone": "+44 1217048150", "email": "procurementteam@solihull.gov.uk" }, "roles": [ "buyer" ], "details": { "url": "https://www.solihull.gov.uk", "buyerProfile": "http://www.csw-jets.co.uk" } }, { "id": "GB-FTS-54716", "name": "Adam Continuity a division of Centerprise International", "identifier": { "legalName": "Adam Continuity a division of Centerprise International" }, "address": { "locality": "Basingstoke", "region": "UKJ37", "postalCode": "RG24 8GQ", "countryName": "United Kingdom" }, "roles": [ "supplier" ], "details": { "scale": "large" } }, { "id": "GB-FTS-54717", "name": "Adam Continuity a division of Centerprise International", "identifier": { "legalName": "Adam Continuity a division of Centerprise International" }, "address": { "locality": "Basingstoke", "region": "UKJ37", "countryName": "United Kingdom" }, "roles": [ "supplier" ], "details": { "scale": "large" } }, { "id": "GB-FTS-54718", "name": "High Court, Royal Court", "identifier": { "legalName": "High Court, Royal Court" }, "address": { "locality": "London", "countryName": "United Kingdom" }, "roles": [ "reviewBody" ] } ], "buyer": { "id": "GB-FTS-37564", "name": "Solihull Metropolitan Borough Council" }, "contracts": [ { "id": "015558-2022-CONTRACT - 00015400-1", "awardID": "015558-2022-CONTRACT - 00015400-1", "title": "SOL - Disaster Recovery", "status": "active", "value": { "amount": 493360, "currency": "GBP" }, "dateSigned": "2017-07-25T00:00:00+01:00", "period": { "startDate": "2022-08-01T00:00:00+01:00", "endDate": "2023-07-31T23:59:59+01:00" }, "items": [ { "id": "1", "classification": { "scheme": "CPV", "id": "72251000", "description": "Disaster recovery services" }, "deliveryAddresses": [ { "region": "UKG32" } ], "relatedLot": "1" } ], "amendments": [ { "id": "1", "description": "The modification is limited to extending the contract duration for a further 12 months using the existing annual contract pricing.

Solihull MBC (SMBC) could not have reasonably foreseen the occurrence of the COVID-19 Pandemic and its resulting impacts upon service delivery, ICT infrastructure needs and strategy. Outside of these unforeseen circumstances SMBC would have followed a more evolutionary approach to modifying our systems and ways of working, which would have resulted in the ability to clearly define our future disaster recovery needs. Due to the rapid change caused by unforeseen circumstances, SMBC has needed to respond with a similarly revolutionary shift in ways of working to sustain service delivery in a massively transformed environment. The proposed modification does not alter the overall nature of the contract as the only element of the contract to be changed is the duration. The service specification, terms and conditions of contract, service level agreement and annual charge rates have not been modified. The increase in duration would not cause the overall price to exceed 50% of the value of the original contract." } ] } ], "links": [ { "rel": "prev", "href": "https://ted.europa.eu/udl?uri=TED:NOTICE:328952-2017:TEXT:EN:HTML" } ], "language": "en" }
