The Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade invites tenders from suitably

qualified service providers for the provision of expert resources for 3 separate

functions within the ICT Unit. These functions are represented by Lots. Tenderers

can quote for one, two or all three Lots. The requirements are:

Lot 1: Senior ICT Engineer Team 3 Engineers

Lot 2: Senior ICT Infrastructure Architect 1 Architect

Lot 3: Communications Specialists: 1 Senior Network Engineer

1 Security Engineer

The selected service providers must have a proven track record in the delivery of

similar services and this should clearly be demonstrated in the response. While

the ICT Unit remains responsible for the delivery of ICT service and support, the

successful service provider will be expected to work in close partnership with the

Department to ensure the quality of the support service provided to users. A key

requirement is ensuring that an appropriate calibre of resource is available to the

Department and that each resource performs to the standard expected on an

ongoing basis.
