Tender description

ISS has a requirement to deliver effective IT Software development and integrated systems by: — Reducing the dependency on systems/suppliers for ‘custom’ developments which are required to deliver the mainstream academic and administrative systems. This is particularly an issue with regard to the student records system which is a key component of the system architecture. — Implementing a clear system architecture with associated defined linkages with defined benefits and outcomes. — Reducing the risk of loss of accuracy resulting from data replication across a number of ‘silos’. — Reducing the risk of increasing use of ‘niche’ solutions which do not adequately secure key University data. NUI, Galway is tendering to set up a Multi-Party Framework Agreement over 4 years.
