Novell Platinum VAR Associated Network Solutions (ANS) has won a network migration contract valued at £200,000 from North Cumbria Health Community, to consolidate its file, print and email services for the entire NHS region.
The contract will see ANS migrate a number of NHS sites over to a Microsoft Windows 2003, Exchange 2003 and a Hewlett-Packard server and storage infrastructure.
Damon Hoggett, IT technical consultant at North Cumbria Informatics Service, said: “The migration service will help to establish an integrated, scalable and resilient network infrastructure across the north.”
Scott Fletcher, managing director of ANS, said: “It’s a very positive announcement. Traditionally we have been a strong Novell partner, but now we are also in the process of becoming a Microsoft Gold partner.”
