Fujitsu will extend its managed services contract with the Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI).

The three-year extension will take the deal up to 2016. The £19m contract extension will make savings of 15 per cent on operational ICT costs.

“Fujitsu has delivered real, tangible benefits to our front line officers and we look forward to the contract’s continued success over the next five years.” said John Tully, head of Information and communication services for Northern Ireland Police.
