## Summary

The public procurement process involves the Crown Commercial Service as the buying organisation, with the title "Award of contract for the supply of Network Management Servers." This procurement falls under the industry category of Computer equipment and supplies and is located in Newport, Wales. The procurement stage is currently at the award phase, with the contract having been awarded on 22nd May 2017. The contract period is set to commence on 30th May 2017 and conclude on 6th June 2017.

This tender represents a significant opportunity for businesses that specialise in supplying computer equipment and technology solutions, particularly those with experience in network management systems. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are encouraged to compete, potentially enabling them to showcase their capabilities in a competitive landscape. Companies that can provide innovative solutions for network simplification and disaster recovery would be particularly well-suited to engage with this contract and benefit from the ongoing relationship with the Crown Commercial Service.

## Notice

3.1 As part of DVLA's current Network Simplification programme, we are looking to procure two servers to be part of the DR solution (out of band network): 3.2 Justification for procurement of such a system is based on the following benefits: * These servers are required to host tooling virtual machines required should any part of the core fail. This, with the out of band network, will enable authentication, investigation and diagnosis in a DR (loss of part of the core) scenario. * These virtual machines would also be used to assist with investigation and diagnosis of non-DR service issues. * These will also host other NW team tooling (both Run and Build).
