What is the framework for?

Public Sector Bodies have a need for the direct provision of support and maintenance for Enterprise Application Software inclusive of any customisation and independent of normal product life-cycles as defined by the relevant Software Owner (for example to provide continued support beyond a product's stated end of life). Services required will include: break-fix support; advice on available patches; development, testing and implementation of bug fixes/workarounds/patches/updates; monitoring operation to assure application and information availability and integrity; maintaining and sharing a knowledge-base of known issues and solutions; assistance with upgrading, replacing, or otherwise changing the Enterprise Application Software.
