FOI2021/00074: ICT Suppliers

Case reference FOI2021/00074

Published 24 June 2021

Request

Request Received: 18 February 2021

Under the Freedom of Information Act I respectfully request that you provide me with a list of ICT suppliers providing outsourced or managed ICT Services to your organisation at the current time.

Please present the information back by email detailing for each supplier (where more than one is engaged):

- Name of supplier

- Service(s) provided by supplier

- Contract Start Date

- Contract End Date

- Contract Value

- Current spend with supplier for provided service(s) (optional)

In the interests of focusing on suppliers of a material nature it would be acceptable to respond with just those suppliers where annual spend (on any particular service) is in excess of £50,000 per annum.

Asked for clarification as to whether your request for a "list of ICT suppliers providing outsourced or managed ICT Services" should include Cloud Hosting or SaaS contracts as well?

Clarified: 2 March 2021

Yes, if that is possible, please.

I am looking at a research project to identify the level of external government spend versus the historic spend on ICT equipment and civil servant staff. We are aware that the Cloud providers may not pay enough tax, and is that also at the expense of tax that other organisations in their sector used to pay for equipment? I'm hoping the information available will reveal and transparent truth.
