Background and Requirements WWU currently use Gamma Horizon VoIP phone system for desk phones at Celtic Springs and in depots.  The current contract commenced in March 2016 and was extended to September 2023. Also supported in this contract is a Redbox fixed line call recording solution located at Celtic Springs. The current Horizon solution is compliant with WWU architectural and security standards and provides all the functionality required. Therefore, there is no intention to change the solution, but the tender will seek a market competitive reseller for support and billing of horizon. Redbox is a SAN (storage area network) based call recording solution housed and maintained at Celtic Springs directly linked to the Horizon solution and serves 135 users at Celtic Springs, supporting our teams in Business Services, System Operations and Despatch. The contract for Redbox has been extended until July 2024. The hardware for this is end of life and currently incompatible with Microsoft Edge meaning it requires replacement. Finally, 16 sites across our network have had their circuits accidentally disconnected. Those sites are now without any phone lines so work is required to restore those sites. The tender is split into two lots: Lot One - Gamma Horizon VOIP solution. Design, implementation, and handover for the Redbox replacement. Lot 2 - Restoration of the Gamma Horizon phone lines to the 16 disconnected sites.
