## Description
Equals Trust has issued a tender inviting contractors to provide ICT Managed Services. The aim of the contact is to have a consistent approach to IT support both for the pupils and the staff, moving over to a Trust model approach rolled out to all schools.

The proposed contract will encompass delivering the following services to the Trust which: a. are cost effective and delivers high quality technical support, system management and consultancy b. provides transparent all-inclusive pricing which allows accurate budgeting over the term of the Contract. c. provides a single point of contact for all of the Trust’s IT requirements and management of third-party providers. d. moves to a centralised Trust operating model, which has a consistent approach across schools. e. Centralises the management of the Contract at Trust level, rather than on an individual school by school basis.
