(NU/1591) Talend Data Services Platform Renewal

The University makes extensive use of the Talend Data Services Platform to integrate a large number of the University's systems and business (30+ systems of record and 80+ downstream systems) in a variety of different integration methods. Integration methods include API, Enterprise Service Bus, and flat-file and database connection.

The University wishes to continue to use the Talend Data Services Platform and seeks a supplier to provide the necessary licensing and customer support services (at Platinum level, as defined at https://www.talend.com/services/technical-support/ and https://www.talend.com/support/support-statements/) for an initial four-year period, commencing 1/10/2020. The University wishes to have the option, at its absolute discretion, to extend such licensing by two further two-year periods, exercisable at two-year's notice before licence expiry (i.e. by 30/9/2022 and 30/9/2024 respectively).

Mini-competition call-off via Southern Universities Purchasing Consortium Software Licence Resellers Agreement Lot 4 (reference ITS4032).
