The brief

Bidders are asked to submit a formal tender for the refresh of the production storage SAN for National Museums Liverpool.

NML are looking to purchase a new SAN with at minimum of 50 Tb useable storage to give five year's growth capacity.

This solution should incorporate disks that will significantly improve the performance of the SQL databases, as well as a general performance increase across all servers.

The services of an IT solutions provider are required to complete the supply, installation and migration of the first 5 virtual servers to the new SAN.

This should be a knowledge share activity to allow the NML IT Technical team to complete the migration of the rest of the virtual servers.

The IT Hardware provider needs to ensure delivery of a high quality system that not only matches the facilities requirements but will operate with minimal maintenance and maximum reliability.
