The brief

The University of Exeter is embarking on a journey to transform its IT provision and move to Digital Services which underpin the University's aspiration to combine teaching excellence and high levels of student satisfaction with world class research.

The University's database estate is a key foundation stone in this journey and it needs to be a solid and reliable platform on which the other Digital services can be built.

To this end the University is looking for a partner to join it on this journey transforming our service and provision of today into the connected campus of tomorrow.

The University is seeking a partner to manage the Oracle and SQL estate on a day to day basis.

The University is seeking an option to either include the MYSQL estate within this day to day support or to call off support for the MYSQL as and when required.

The University will base its decision on budgetary constraints based on both quote options received.
