BT today announced the signature with the European Parliament of two framework contracts, together worth up to 120 million euros.

The five year contracts cover a wide range of networked IT services, including the supply of network equipment and applications as well as all associated professional services for the European Parliament's telecommunications infrastructure and systems. Service delivery will take place at the European Parliament’s three main sites in Brussels, Luxembourg and Strasbourg.

A representative for the European Parliament said: “BT put together a competitive and strong offering which really stood out. Their highly-skilled integration experts and a vendor agnostic approach should enable us to implement all communication infrastructures and services according to our Call for Tender specifications. This makes me confident that we have chosen the right partner, who will help our organisation to become more efficient and reduce costs.”
