## Notice

BHFT (Berkshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust) operates from a multiple location across Berkshire. At any point in time, the BHFT may request from the supplier to propose and quote for the supply and installation of suitable IT cabling and associated IT fittings. On occasions we will require the identification, reporting and quotation for the repair of cable faults. This requirement will be communicated by either BHFT IT Department or BHFT Facilities Department. If supplier's quotation proposal is approved internally, the installation would then be expected to commence within the agreed timeframe.
