Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust (GSTT) plans to replace its on‑premises compute/storage/network infrastructure and relocate them to supplier hosted Datacentres.

This procurement seeks a service partner who can supply a fully managed service, operate the virtualisation platform and optionally manage guest operating systems and backup/disaster‑recovery services. All equipment will be hosted in a resilient pair of data centres and the successful bidder will work with the Trust to migrate its existing defined workloads.
