New Public Sector Agreement between Microsoft and Buying Solutions
The new Public Sector Agreement (PSA09) is a new software purchasing model for the UK public sector. It is the result of an in-depth collaborative procurement engagement between Microsoft and Buying Solutions on behalf of the public sector. You can read the full press release about PSA09 here.
In PSA09, Microsoft is offering value for money, greater choice and licensing flexibility, unique in its public or private sector agreements.
It paves the way for future models of software purchasing and will help organisations to meet emerging and future challenges in delivering public service reform.
What makes PSA09 different from previous agreements?
· Value for money – customers can save up to 16% on previous licensing agreements
· Matches business needs – customers can choose from more flexible licensing options
· Simpler licence transferability – licences can be transferred between organisations
· Accelerates public service reform – provides the enabling technology for frontline services
