Refresh Project 2010

Mathew Trudgill — Wed, 17 Feb 2010 16:20:34 +0000

In January 2010 Healthcare Computing began another IT Estate Refresh Project.

The purpose of the project is to upgrade the GP Practice estate and establish an infrastructure that will support CfH applications and future NHS deployments as part of the ongoing NPfIT (National program for IT). In this year’s rollout we will locate and replace 400 of the lowest spec PCs, 860 15” TFT monitors and upgrade all remaining PCs to 1GB of RAM; all replaced equipment will then be collected and securely disposed of.

The project is due to complete by the end of April 2010.
