What the notice says
Post Office is seeking a replacement service to be procured, which must have sufficient time for transition should a new supplier be selected; estimated at 18 months.
The scope of services "as is" consists of: Data Centre's, WAN Branch & Admin, Managed LAN Service, NNI, Cyber Security, Break Fix Management Information, Mobile devices etc.
Post Office is considering a strategy that covers today's business requirements for Branches and accommodates a future technology delivery model that is cheaper to run.
