## Summary

Leicester City Council is conducting an open tender for the "Provision of Support Services for Cisco and Palo Alto Estate" to supply maintenance and support for its existing equipment. The procurement process is currently active, with the tender period set to close on 30th May 2018. The total value of this contract is £600,000, and it will start from 1st July 2018, running until 30th June 2023. The procurement is classified under the software package and information systems category and will take place in the East Midlands region of the United Kingdom.

This tender presents a valuable opportunity for businesses specialising in IT support and maintenance services, particularly those familiar with Cisco and Palo Alto products. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to participate, as they may be well-positioned to meet the Council's requirements. Companies capable of providing responsive support and adaptable solutions will have a competitive edge, especially if they can address potential new equipment needs that may arise during the contract period.

## Notice

Leicester City Council is currently nearing the end of the term of its current support and maintenance agreement for the Councils existing Cisco and Palo Alto equipment and is therefore seeking quotations for this supply of maintenance and support that will be effective from the end date of the current agreements in place. Further should the Council have any new requirements for replacement equipment during the term of the agreement then these would be placed through this Contract by quotation and variation.
