II.1.4) Short description
Arden and GEM Commissioning Support Unit (AGEM) was seeking to let a Framework Agreement for the provision of Integrated Resource Management Planning Technology Partners. The systems were required to be agile and have the flexibility to respond to evolving technology and operational requirements as these emerge.
