Procurement of a new Council’s Clearswift licencing Contract
26/05/2023 - Procurement of a new Council’s Clearswift licencing Contract
The Clearswift licences are required to ensure
the Council’s email and web gateway appliances remain
licenced and in support. This is required to ensure filtering and
protection is in place for incoming and outgoing emails as well as
website access. Without the email and web gateway appliance, the
Council could be exposed to viruses, malware, and undesirable
content.
The current licence contract was due to expire on 31st March
2023.
Following a procurement exercise, the ED for Strategy &
Improvement approved the one licence renewal with Bechtle UK for
the Council’s Clearswift licences costing
£0.053m.
