Miami-Dade County may soon seek a vendor to provide access to Veritas’ full product portfolio.

According to a draft solicitation document from the county, prospective vendors would be asked to provide “new hardware, new software licenses, upgrade software licenses and software maintenance support services, as well as professional services to county departments, on an as-needed basis.”

Other interest areas for the county include security, information risk and compliance, storage, infrastructure operations, business continuity products and business-critical, essential or basic support services.

Contractors would be asked to provide ongoing software maintenance and support subscriptions for existing hardware, software licenses and subscriptions to various Veritas products the county currently owns.

Some of these products include Veritas’ “Backup Exec product family, Managed Security Services subscription suite, Storage Foundation product family, Net Backup product family, Enterprise Vault Cloud family, Endpoint Protection product family and System Recovery product family.”

As the county moves forward with technology initiatives, the draft solicitation document states that the need for additional licenses and expansion of additional product families may occur.

More detailed information about the future solicitation can be found online.
