OGP is currently engaging with its public sector clients in relation to their requirements for cloud services (including collaboration and video conference services) which will inform OGP’s future strategy in relation to potential procurement solutions for cloud services. Any procurement of cloud services will be through public a competition(s) advertised on www.etender.ie. Pre-market engagement relating to any public procurement competition will be conducted in an open and transparent manner through a Request for Information process advertised on www.etenders.ie. Pre-market engagement will not commence until Q1 2022 at the earliest.
