What is being bought

Published requirement description

The Formic Fusion Licences will ensure the availability of the Army Hosting Environment (AHE) and Defence Gateway (DGW) applications and services. The timely renewal of this 36 month licence is critical for the delivery of Development, Test and live support both at Application and Platform level and supports the ongoing maintenance and security patching on the Army's Cloud hosting infrastructures of both the Joint Server Farm (JSF) and the AHE OFFICIAL, OFFICIAL-SENSITIVE and SECRET environments. The software automatically scans, extracts, and validates hand-written information from paper documents up to 50 times faster than a human operator can key. The software also enables organisations to publish forms of their own design to the web or deploy it to any Microsoft Windows Mobile device for completion electronically, at the front line.
