## About this tender

The University seeks a supplier and/or integrator who can help us to deliver a modern fit for purpose well connected and software driven integrated network infrastructure, whilst ensuring security, agility and reliability/resilience of the platform.

The modernisation and rationalisation programme would be delivered over five years as a programme of works with a significant proportion of works happening within the first 18 months of the project.
