To proceed with a procurement for a PC booking
and Wi-Fi print management system for North Yorkshire Library
Service. The current contract expires on 30 September
2021.
Necessary for continuation of service
provision.
1. Do nothing – discounted as would
result in inability to continue service provision.
2. Re-use NYCC systems. PC Booking and Print Control are unique
capabilities to libraries and have little in common with corporate
solutions available within NYCC. Re-using existing systems is not
feasible as no existing NYCC systems can provide the functionality
required.
3. Bespoke NYCC development. Bespoke in-house development of
operational systems is not T&C policy, especially if it is
possible for these systems to be procured.
