UK Public Sector Contracts & Tenders

The contract covers the provision of enterprise-grade switching, wireless infrastructure, and associated licences and support services. The supplier is required to be an authorised Aruba partner or otherwise demonstrate the ability to provide genuine equipment with full manufacturer warranty and support entitlement. The Authority operates an existing Aruba network environment deployed across its Trust estate. The contract supports the expansion and enhancement of this existing infrastructure. All solutions are required to be compatible with Aruba Central and ClearPass to maintain a consistent and centrally managed network architecture. Interoperability with existing Aruba Central and ClearPass platforms is required to ensure integration with the Authority's current switching, wireless, and network access control environment, supporting staged migration and avoiding the need for a parallel network management platform for day-to-day operations.
