    Short description of the contract or purchase(s)

    West Yorkshire Police wish to update and upgrade the core Network

    Infrastructure. This tender is to identify potential suppliers who could deliver the

    required solution in upgrading the infrastructure to meet the increasing:

    Capacity, Reliability and Resilience that is essential to support current and future

    requirements.

    There are 2 main Data Centres at Bradford and Wakefield with a 3rd smaller

    centre in another area of Wakefield. The Data Centres are inter-connected by 2

    (diversely routed) 10Gbs fibre circuits, which terminate directly on each of the 4

    core nodes. Both Data Centres run in an active/active or active/standby

    scenario on numerous critical IT systems. Servers are load balanced by a

    mixture of Kemp’s and Cisco ACE load balancers. Both Data Centres act as

    a ‘Virtual Data Centre’ by means of stretching VLANs between the 2 sites.

    WYP deployed an EMC Isilon storage solution and is in the process of rolling out

    an ‘in force’ Elastic Cloud Storage solution (ECS) over 4 sites (3xData Centres

    and 2xDivisions). Isilon replication takes place across the forces Local Area

    Network (LAN)/Wide Area Network (WAN) network between Bradford - Wakefield

    (both ways) and Bradford (both ways). ECS is seen to operate in a similar way.

    A critical area that is heavily dependent on the availability and reliability of WYPs

    main LAN/WAN infrastructure is the force Command and Control system and the

    Integrated Communications and Control System. These support the Customer

    Contact Centre which is responsible for handling all 999 and Non-emergency

    calls and the five District Control rooms that handle Emergency Radio dispatch

    and local call handling. Any disruption to these has a major impact in both

    service delivery and Officer / Public safety. In addition to above, there are

    multiple systems that require 24x7 access to ensure both Officer and Public

    safety, delivering Policing effectiveness utilising multiple systems such as: ANPR,

    Crime recording, Forensics and Custody
