Other Information

The successful supplier will be expected to provide the most cost effective solution for the required licences as well as being in a strong position with Microsoft to work flexibly with Stonewater over the contract term to add and enhance the licence estate, in line with business changes and demand. The successful supplier should also be able to maximise their delivery of the Stonewater contract in terms providing updates and information on Microsoft products as well as supporting the training and development of Stonewater staff where possible and relevant. A variety of social value and sustainability initiatives should also be targeted by the successful supplier in any way possible. This will be discussed and agreed with Stonewater during the contract award stage.
