A tender exercise was undertaken for the WAN replacement and a new supplier has been identified. With the provision of a new WAN the opportunity has been taken to review our current LAN and Security Infrastructure. As part of this exercise Tameside Council have considered the strategic requirements of the IT network infrastructure going forward to deliver the necessary levels of connectivity and security for the foreseeable future. A review of our current infrastructure has been completed and an exercise has already been undertaken to identify the infrastructure required to support the new TMBC Core and Security Infrastructure.
