Provision of School Routers and Associated Services and the Management of existing School Routers

Currently there are approximately 3,600 schools connections in place under this programme, the majority of schools have one broadband connection with a small amount of schools with two connections. The Existing Routers installed in schools are either a Cisco 871 or a Cisco 881 router (specification attached at appendix 9). In addition to the routers in place in schools the Minister also owns a number of spares (approximately 130). The Minister wishes to put in place a draw down facility for the purchase of new CPE routers for schools. In addition to supply of the new CPE router the provider will be expected to manage the existing estate of routers.
