HSE’s network is currently operating at less-than-optimal performance, which is believed to be caused by inadequate network capacity to meet the constantly evolving needs of the business. Following initiatives such as moving to a wireless-only solution across our estates, and the removal of old virtual desktops, our network performance has been impacted, but we lack the appropriate metrics to quantify this impact.

HSE is seeking a network engineer/architect with the necessary tools to review the current network state and provide reporting and documentation on how to proceed with optimization.

Resource needed:

HSE requires a network engineer/architect to support our Network Performance Monitoring & Improvement. The work is needed in the week commencing 28th April 2025. The supplier should advise on the timeframe. This work can be delivered remotely, but visits to Redgrave Court, Bootle, and Buxton are required.

The scope of work includes:

• Review relevant aspects of the existing network design
• Install and configure tools to gather network performance metrics
• Produce a report containing:
• The network performance metrics
• Expert analysis of the metrics
• Observations of any sub-optimal configuration
• Short and long-term recommendations for performance improvement
• Use of auto-discovery to identify equipment still within the network
• Reports and reporting tools on overall network performance
• Advice on network monitoring/toolsets for auto-discovery of network devices
• Performance metrics of the network, with analysis
• Observations of sub-optimal or inefficient network design/configuration
• Short-term/Workaround suggestions to improve performance
• Long-term design goals and resilience suggestions
