5 Connect | Communicate | Collaborate Current IaaS problems: 1.Conditions of use are not transparent Snowden revelations have raised awareness on privacy & security concerns 2.Service uptake is not aligned with institution processes Institutions can’t use credit card, need PO based ordering 3.Costs are not predictable, need bill-shock prevention. Data egress charges are too unpredictable and can add up quickly

Contacting providers before tender publication to: Sell our requirements: why should they participate in this Listen to their abilities: what can (and can’t) they do. This should ensure that the tender document does not come as a surprise and matches their abilities while setting a high minimum standard guaranteeing that the offer matches our needs.
