That the council migrates its email and calendar system from Lotus Notes to Microsoft Office 365, purchases extended licences as described in the submitted report, and engages with Microsoft and other implementation partners to assist with the migration.
Reasons for Decisions:
The adoption of Microsoft for the council’s email and calendar requirements will facilitate the delivery of the council’s digital strategy.
