What does the Microsoft Enterprise Agreement mean for NHS Scotland?
The NHS Scotland has a central licensing arrangement with Microsoft – called an Enterprise Agreement – which provides software licences to all personal computers (including desktops and laptops) for specific core Microsoft products across all of the NHS organisations in Scotland listed under Appendix A – eligible bodies. This is a three year agreement running until June 2009. It includes the right to use any new versions of the products included. The funding for this agreement is provided centrally.
