[More contracts for small businesses and VCSEs](https://tendernation.io/opportunities/for-small-businesses) ## About this tender DVLA's Information Technology Service (ITS) require ongoing support of the Agency's Check Point Firewall Estate referenced in user centre 5887006, and wish to consider options for 1, 2 and 3 year support for the as-is estate. This will allow us to understand the discounts brought about by a longer term contract, however due to the foreseeable economic challenges in the market brought about by COVID-19 and the delay it has caused in migrating off products, it may be more prudent to go for a shorter term agreement at this time. Potential Suppliers should note the Agency does not commit to pay more than one year's pricing up front, and expects to pay annually in advance for each year of the contract Licence renewals for Next Generation Threat Prevention (NGTP) IDS/IPS blade licensing provided by core Check Point firewalls are also included.

ITS also require Check Point Professional Consultancy Services in the form of a call-off arrangement for up to 20 days per year.
