London’s Metropolitan Police Service has awarded CSC Computer Services with two separated ICT contracts.
The awards were announced this morning by the capital’s Mayor’s Office for Policing and Crime. The supplier CSC has been appointed for a six-year contract to provide hosting services, and a five-year contract to supply end user services, worth £94.7m and £155.2m respectively.
The hosting services contract will cover services including software-as-a-service (SaaS), infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) and platform-as-a-service (PaaS). The end user services contract will cover many further services such as storage, managed desktop services, office LAN support and local print services.
Both contracts are part of the Total Technology Programme Infrastructure (TTPI), and will be available to other local governmental authorities – the London Development Agency (LDA), the Greater London Authority (GLA) and the London Fire and Emergency Planning Authority (LFEPA) – as well as police forces across the United Kingdom.
