Unlikely? We think so too.

Grizzled hack Mike Magee has broken the world record for drinking tea.

In a shocking move, he is estimated to have drunk 128,000 cups of tea in 60 days.

According to Thames Water, his not so smart water meter clocked up the equivalent of 128,000 cups of tea or 437 showers or 400 baths in a 60 day period starting in February and running through March.

Thames Water wants at least two resellers to form an IT hardware and software, software renewals and software asset management framework worth an estimated total of £120 million.

The framework is split into two lots. The first focused on hardware services which is worth an estimated £10 million. The second lot concentrates on software services and is valued at an estimated £110 million, both excluding VAT.

Requirements under lot two include software reseller services, software license management, maintenance and support renewals and software disposal, and a maximum of three resellers.

Thames Water says it is looking for “value-for-money of reseller services, including access to special bid pricing; supply provision; speed and accuracy of delivery; issue resolution; OEM relationships and accreditations and the capability to execute projects and provide added-value services”.
