## Summary

The City of Bradford Metropolitan District Council has completed a procurement process to appoint XMA Ltd for the NetApp Storage Infrastructure Refresh project. This procurement falls under the IT services category, specifically focusing on consulting, software development, Internet, and support. Located in Yorkshire and the Humber, the project involves delivering an on-premise NetApp storage infrastructure with refreshed SAN connectivity, continuing the needed capacity, functionality, and connectivity for the Council’s estate. The contract, worth approximately £750,960.02, will run from 16th September 2024 to 15th September 2029, with potential extensions. The procurement followed a restricted procedure under the selective procurement method, adhering to Crown Commercial Services' RM6098 Technology Products & Associated Services 2 Lot 2 Hardware Framework.

The awarded contract presents substantial opportunities for businesses specialising in IT infrastructure and support services. Companies with expertise in NetApp storage solutions and large-scale IT infrastructure projects are particularly well-suited to compete for similar future tenders. Such projects provide growth potential by expanding the business's portfolio with significant public sector contracts, enhancing its reputation and capability in delivering robust IT solutions. Furthermore, being part of an established procurement framework, such as the Crown Commercial Services, can position a business favourably for subsequent opportunities within the public sector.

## Notice

The Council is seeking to appoint a suitably experienced, NetApp accredited partner (the Provider) to deliver an on-premise NetApp storage infrastructure including refreshed SAN connectivity. This refresh of the existing NetApp storage platform must continue to deliver the capacity, functionality and connectivity required for our estate. It is anticipated that the contract will be for a period of 5 years with an option to extend by 2 periods of 12 months. The Council reserves the right to amend the scope of the support requirement for the extension period. This will be purchased via Crown Commercial Services - RM6098 Technology Products & Associated Services 2 Lot 2 Hardware Framework.
