02/ The brief

What the notice says

Not fully read: this is the notice text; attached documents are not read.

Belfast Metropolitan College provides Further and Higher Education and vocational

training to a student population in excess of 30,000 students. The College employs

approximately 1000 plus staff comprising approximately 300 full-time teaching staff and

200 part-time teaching staff supported by approximately 500 non-teaching support staff.

BMC's annual turnover is in excess of £55m. The current contract for an IT Security

Partner is due to expire, and the college is acutely aware of the danger of cyber-attacks

across the globe and requires the appointment of a security partner to fill the IT Security

Partner role. The other NI-based FE colleges (Northern Regional College, Southern

Regional College, South-Eastern Regional College, North-Western Regional College,

South-Western Regional College) have also expressed interest in availing of the services

of the IT Security partner. Suppliers should refer to the Specification Schedule for full

detail on the deliverables of this contract.
