Insourcing – European tendering
2009: SURF (net/diensten) decides to adopt model
of insourcing, which means SURF will be
responsible for European tendering on behalf of
their member institutions (59 in total)
2010: transformation SURFdiensten from broker to
purchasing organization
End 2010: SURFdiensten decides to implement a
Dynamic Purchase System for “Standard Software”,
which will be operational in Q2 2011
International cooperation
SURF is partner in Knowledge Exchange, together with Denmark’s Electronic Research Library (DEFF), German Research Foundation (DFG) and Joint Information Systems Committee (JISC) in the United Kingdom. Focus is on negotiating license agreements with scientific publishers.
SURFdiensten offers part of its portfolio of
agreements to Belgian higher education institutions
SURFdiensten discussed possibilities of cooperation
with Belnet some years ago. No option at that
moment.
New opportunities to cooperate with NREN’s?
Some challenges
Need to join forces and aggregate demand
(volume) in a monopolistic market with major
software vendors and scientific publishers
Need for more flexible licensing models
(Consortium, Campus, Group and Individual)
How to deal with hybrid offerings (on premise –
Cloud) from major vendors?
Force to federative access: Google and Microsoft
connected to SURFfederation
