The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade has a policy for replacing its ICT assets that are five years old or older. There are a number of network switches that have reached end of life and require replacement.
The Ministry’s Information Management Division have carried out some analysis and evaluation to find suitable replacement switches that can be integrated and managed in the Ministry’s networks. There are various roles that the switches need to fill and they can be grouped as follows:
199 x Isolation Switch – 12 port copper, 2 SFP
137 x Copper Access Switch – 24 port copper, 4 SFP (and a 48 port option for up to 10 x switches if required)
36 x Fibre Capable Access Switch – 24 port
These switches need to meet Country of Origin requirements and come with standard warranty only.
The switches need to be shipped to Wellington in New Zealand.
The intention is to begin the replacement of the Copper Access Switches from July 2022 onwards and the Fibre Access Switches from October 2022 onwards.
If successful you will be the sole provider of this essential technology for maintaining the security and connectivity of MFAT Posts for the duration of the contract.
This tender has been awarded.
