NIRAN disengagement

The work to disengage NIRAN continues and has been in progress for nearly a full year. The majority of the work has been completed with the novation of both the contract with Virgin Media for customer connections, router maintenance and the contract with Queens University Belfast for the IP operations being signed over to Janet(UK) with effect from 22nd November 2013.

Northern Ireland region - re-procurement

Janet(UK) will shortly begin preparations for a re-procurement exercise for the Northern Ireland region in 2015 for rollout, delivery and migration in Q2/Q3 of 2016. This affords us a further period of consultation and requirements gathering with the regional users and the funding bodies to ensure that the network is fully fit for purpose and allows sufficient growth to meet the changing needs of the user base. In order to run a procurement in 2015 the existing contract with Virgin Media will be extended until November 2016.
