Executive Summary The desktop infrastructure replacement programme has authority to proceed from the Fire Authority. This is a wide ranging programme which comprises of many projects that are expected to run over the next two years.
The most significant project is to replace the desktop environment and devices used throughout the Service.
The strategic objectives of the project are to design, build and deliver a fully operational desktop environment built on industrial strength infrastructure and software. This new model will satisfy the business requirements, provide a future-proofed design and be immediately capable of rapidly scaling and deployment across the estate by the purchase and installation of additional hardware and software licences as required. The new environment will provide: -
Sound technology basis for cost effective and rapid delivery of follow-on projects from ITTP
Cost effective, modern desktop (featuring Windows 7 appearance and Office 2010) Positively transformed and standardised end user experience regardless of location,
role or working pattern Improved security, reliability and availability Improved end user satisfaction with Desktop IT services Reduced annual revenue and capital expenditure Reduced IT maintenance and support effort requirement to maintain a new higher
standard of service Improved ability to quickly accommodate new business requirements and
organisational changes
To focus on the desired business outcome and minimise the risk at each stage, the project is utilising a delivery-horizon approach where we will move, with suitable approval, from one clearly understood and defined outcome to the next. This approach currently calls for four phases to the overall delivery: - 1. Phase 1: Technical Proof Of Concept (Completed)
a. A technology proof-of-concept
2. Phase 2: Analysis, Design and Build of a fully working model (Proceeding to Pilot) a. A fully working model that satisfies the ITTP objectives as described in Section 8 of
the Gateway 1 document. b. Integration testing of existing ECFRS business applications. c. Definition and build of service support model for new desktop. d. Delivery of latest Windows 7 / MS Office 2010 products for phased deployment.
3. Phase 3: Full scale deployment a. Deployment of licensing and hardware infrastructure providing enterprise scalability
and DR (Industrialisation). b. Deployment of new desktop devices and services within ECFRS. c. Deployment of service support model for new desktop. d. Deployment of current version of business software. e. Deployment of latest versions of Windows 7 and Microsoft Office 2010 products. f. Deployment of individual email accounts.
Phase 3 will be split into the following four Stages, in order to provide immediate operational benefits in line with current priorities: -
1) One-for-one replacement of current Neoware devices with new Wyse thin client devices in all Stations.
2) Installation of additional network points and new Wyse thin client devices in all Stations, to support additional ICT business requirements for all Service Delivery personnel.
2
3) Replacement of current PC’s in all Area Commands, Service Delivery Points, Training Centres, Workshops and Emergency Planning.
4) Replacement of current PC’s in Service Headquarters (Kelvedon Park and remaining personnel in Hutton, including Control).
4. Phase 4: Business Application Upgrades a. Delivery of operational SharePoint installation for use across the Service.
Phase 2 is currently proceeding to Pilot, initially at Harlow Command and Station and then subsequently at Burnham-on-Crouch station, in order that the impact, capability and capacity at Retained stations can also be assessed prior to full scale deployment. A fully working model has been built and tested in collaboration with Esteem Group (our chosen professional services provider), utilising the latest Citrix VDI-In-a-Box technology. This creates and runs a virtual Windows 7 / MS Office 2010 desktop for each user on central servers, with the latest Wyse thin client devices deployed to end users.
Wyse were selected to supply the thin client devices following a full evaluation of the market place. A shortlist of three vendors was drawn up, including the two market leaders – HP and Wyse – and a relatively new vendor to the UK, 10ZiG. Each vendor was invited on-site for a day to demonstrate their products, in order that ECFRS could evaluate them against the following predetermined requirements and criteria: -
Functionality, including graphical capability and ability to support Flash Performance, including seamless and rapid start-up for the end user and network usage Size and mounting options Heat generation and dissipation Power consumption Currency and life cycle of products Management of the thin clients, including capabilities and ease of use of the
management interface and maintenance / deployment of images Vendor engagement and support Costs, including initial purchase price, warranty and on-going Support & Maintenance
HP was discounted at an early stage, as the quality of their vendor engagement and support was poor, and their products didn’t meet our functional requirements.
Wyse and 10ZiG engagement and support was good from both vendors, and both met our functional requirements. However, Wyse was selected on the basis of their superior video capability, most current and longer life cycle for their product, and only a small price differential between them and 10ZiG.
The intention was that the Pilot would have been completed prior to submission of Gateway 3 documents, but this hasn’t been possible due to protracted resolution of issues with Citrix during ICT System Testing. Therefore, due to the urgency of the project and financial considerations, this paper seeks approval to deliver Phase 3, Full Scale Deployment of the proposed architecture, on the basis that we have now completed the analysis and design to provide enterprise scalability and deployment, even though we haven’t yet been able to complete the Pilot rollout.

Phase 3 - Full Scale Deployment
Nimbus - Summary of Costs / Effort and Variations for Project Initiation DocumentBusiness Case
Nimbus Costs Phase 2 - Fully Working Model
The following points should be noted regarding the costs: - The costs for Phase 2 - Fully Working Model are higher than the original estimate due to
protracted issues during the procurement process with a previous supplier. It was consequently decided that they were unable to meet our requirements; hence we have now engaged Esteem Group to provide us with a more suitable and appropriate solution.
The costs for Phase 3 / Stage 1 are significantly higher than the other Stages because all Hardware and Software Licensing will be purchased up front, in order to obtain best prices for volume purchases. Delivery of hardware will then be phased in line with requirements for each Stage.
No allowance has currently been made for potential Property Services costs to provide new desks and chairs to support the additional terminals in stations, if required. These will be subject to individual site surveys at each station, but would typically cost around £300 per workstation, although this may be less per unit depending on volumes. If we assumed an average of one additional desk per station, this would be a total additional cost of around £15,000.
Please see Appendix A for a full breakdown of costs for each Phase / Stage.
Contributions to Carbon Management Plan
Based on current and predicted usage, reduced power consumption will result in an energy saving of approximately 1,500kwh per annum for each desktop PC replaced by the selected Wyse thin terminal, and approximately 1,300kwh per annum for each Neoware terminal replaced.
At current energy prices, the Wyse terminals will provide a return on investment in 2-3 years.
Recommendations
The EFA Policy & Strategy Committee is asked to approve the delivery of Phase 3: Full Scale Deployment of the new Nimbus desktop infrastructure, based on the approach and rationale as defined in this Project Initiation Document.

External Dependencies 17. The other projects with a direct interface to this project are:
There are two key External Dependencies for this project: - Individual User Accounts project, to ensure that access controls are in place to enable
all users have a secure, individual sign-on and e-mail account to support functional requirements of Nimbus.
Improved Paper Handling and Printing Efficiency, to ensure that new printers are delivered in a timely manner to support Nimbus requirements.
Additionally, the following projects are dependent on Nimbus to deliver the new desktop infrastructure as soon as possible to support additional ICT requirements and usage for all Service Delivery staff: -
SAP ESS / MSS / TEM Electronic Rota Book TASK Self Service
Planning Assumptions 18. In estimating and planning the following assumptions have been made:
That no significant issues or changes will result from the Harlow and Burnham-on-Crouch Pilots
That all hardware can be ordered and delivered in a timely manner That Wide Area Network capacity will support business requirements in all locations That all ICT Technical resource requirements can be sourced internally within current
team and there is no requirement to employ external contract staff That external electrical contractor can carry out additional cabling / installations in a
timely manner, with no significant variations in cost estimates That external Training provider can provide sufficient trainers in a timely manner to
support the training programme, with particular consideration to operational Watch rotas
That currently proposed Windows 7 / MS Office 2010 Tier 1/2 familiarisation sessions will meet the vast majority of training requirements. Tier 3 training can be provided for expert users on an ad hoc basis, but hasn’t been included in current estimates
That Individual User Accounts project will deliver to meet deadlines for deployment of Nimbus
That Improved Paper Handling and Printing Efficiency project will deliver to meet deadlines for deployment of Nimbus

Risks 19. Highlight the key risks from the Risk Register:
Risk no. Risk and description/explanation Residual
risk rating
RS0001 Harlow and Burnham-on-Crouch Pilots may give rise to significant Issues or Changes, resulting in additional hardware or application requirements that have not been planned for. Full station requirements analysis has been carried out and signed off by West Area Command and Harlow Station, so risk should be low.
Low
RS0002 New servers / infrastructure may not be delivered in time to commence the Full Scale Deployment. Server specifications finalised as part of initial build and performance testing carried out by ICT. ‘Smart Quote’ already initiated through Esteem Group in order to expedite the process and obtain best price.
Medium
RS0003 Wyse may not be able to deliver sufficient thin client devices in a timely manner to support the rollout plan. Wyse already engaged and aware of our requirements and timescales, paperwork for order will be completed in advance of Gateway 3 approval, Wyse will adopt a phased delivery approach to ensure our requirements can be accommodated.
High
RS0004 Virtual desktop solution may not support additional application requirements for all sites. Full application requirements analysis will be completed for all sites in advance of Stages 3 and 4 of the rollout to ensure that all requirements are captured, incorporated in final image and tested before deployment.
Medium
RS0005 Wide Area Network capacity / performance may not support business requirements in all locations. Network Quality of Service installed at Harlow prior to Pilot, initial testing proved successful, but additional testing and monitoring to be carried out as part of the Pilot. If performance not acceptable, consideration to be given to installing Citrix Branch Repeaters, but this would incur additional costs.
Medium
RS0006 Individual User Accounts / Sign-on will not be delivered to meet deadlines for deployment of Nimbus. All users across the service have now been setup in Active Directory, but will need to be setup in new Group Policies as part of the rollout process, which will be proven as part of Harlow Pilot.
Medium
RS0007 Improved Paper Handling and Printing Efficiency project will not be delivered to meet deadlines for deployment of Nimbus. Nimbus deadlines will be incorporated in Improved Paper Handling and Printing Efficiency plans as external deliverables.
Medium

8
Risk no. Risk and description/explanation Residual
risk rating
RS0008 ICT Technical Officers and Service Desk staff may not be available to support the project due to conflicting Support and other Project commitments. Resource requirements will be planned out in full with Service Delivery Manager and if necessary, will look to backfill staff with external contract staff, although this will incur additional costs.
High
RS0009 External electrical contractor can’t carry out additional cabling / installations in a timely manner and / or within budget. All estimates based on work already carried out for Harlow Pilot. External contractor will be engaged as soon as PID approved by SMB, in order to plan and cost full programme of work to support Stage 2, to run in parallel with Stage 1.
Medium
RS0010 Training approach not yet proven due to delay in Harlow Pilot. This may give rise to significant Issues or Changes in Training requirements / timescales that have not been planned for and which selected Training provider can’t accommodate. Training programme has been planned in detail with Training vendor, both for Harlow Pilot and full scale deployment. Approach, timings and costs will be proven during the Pilot and adjusted as required, although this may mean that we have to select another Training provider with greater capacity to deliver the programme, which may incur additional costs.
Medium
RS0011 In-house ICT Training courses / manuals / user guides may become out-of-date. PM to liaise with IT Training Dept to determine what training material will need updating prior to full rollout.
Low
RS0012 Nimbus Full Scale Deployment will conflict with Olympics Change Freeze from 1st July to 10th September. Agreed that if the back-end infrastructure is in place and tested in advance of the Change Freeze, we will continue with the deployment into Stations, as no new systems will be introduced. However, it may still be prudent to avoid migrating key operational locations during the Change Freeze.
