## Description

CMA is looking to adjust the scope and capacity of its VPN/PSN/SIP/Internet services and the underpinning network topology to cope with growth and support the second phase of its Cloud Strategy by adding additional scope to the Virgin contract to improve direct connection to the Azure platform via Express Route and eventually to reduce DR to VH bandwidth and allow for the eventual removal of PSN access
