Wales looks for public broadband deal

The Welsh Assembly Government is after someone to provide public sector
broadband connections.
It is asking for tenders to give high speed broadband using existing
infrastructure as part of a Public Sector Broadband Network for Wales, which
could be worth up to £150 million to the successful candidate.
"Currently, individual sectors procure their own connectivity. The
objective of the PSBA project is to aggregate the demand for connectivity
to procure a single high bandwidth solution.
"By consolidating the procurement process, PSBA will provide significant
economies of scale and allow the various sectors to purchase capacity from
a single, national network.
"Further benefits will also be seen, as PSBA will allow increased
interoperability between public sector networks that will support improved
delivery of public services." |
