6Foot2 Posted January 4, 2008 Posted January 4, 2008 (edited) Can anyone confirm/does anyone know who has been successful in the bidding for supplying network support under the BSF banner in Hertfordshire, or even if a successful bidder has been chosen. Failing that does anyone know who is in the running? I can't seem to find out anything here. Edited January 15, 2008 by 6Foot2
comedydave Posted January 4, 2008 Posted January 4, 2008 I thought our *ahem* freinds at RM had the corner on the market for this
Dos_Box Posted January 4, 2008 Posted January 4, 2008 RM are just one of many companies getting the contracts for these.
broc Posted January 4, 2008 Posted January 4, 2008 There should be an 'audit-trail' of where the process has got to in Hertfordshire. Under the ground rules laid out by Partnership for Schools there are a number of pre-determined legal and commercial steps that must be followed to select a preferred bidder; The LA must publish its requirements, request interested parties, produce a 'long' and 'short' list at each stage of the bidding process until a final supplier is selected. You will find a lot of this information is in the public domain. Try a trawl of the WWW. You should be able to find out how far they have got. Be assured when a preferred bidder is decided it will be very public! There are quite a number of consortia out there bidding all over the UK, delving into who is behind them is quite revealing too. My LA has a website with the timeline laid out; I know for example they have a shortlist of three potential consortia lined up as bidders...... For starters, have a look at http://www.hertsdirect.org/scholearn/bsf/
