Support: Provide a period of hyper-care support immediately following implementation cutover to address identified issues in a timely manner. Exclusions Significant redesign of Parliament's public facing internet site, as this will be managed separately after a supported and fit for purpose CMS platform is provisioned and deemed stable. The inclusion of any other public facing internet site provisioned for Parliament (for example, the Education and Engagement Office Community Education site). The decommissioning of Parliament's current CMS platform, including the removal of relevant infrastructure, environments, and resources that are no longer required.
