19/03/2021 - Purchase of IT hardware to modernise and provide a reduction in ongoing revenue costs. ref: 728    Recommendations Approved

To agree the purchase of services from the IT Capital Program 20/21.

The Council has a servers, disk storage and networks that provide applications to end users. Much of this infrastructure is over 5 years old and needs refreshing and we have established that we can purchase one simple solution to provide this central solution.

This will modernise the Council’s IT but also will allow our revenue costs to reduce as we will not pay as much in maintenance of hardware and there are opportunities to reduce or remove software licenses. In addition this new equipment will resovle a potential Microsoft Licence problem.

It is proposed to invest no more than £33,000 in delivering this solution.
