Fujitsu have won a £500 million 5 year contract to provide broadband services and billing solutions to the Post Office. The new contract will also see services provided by TalkTalk, MDS and Capital.

The new contract replaces previous suppliers Logica and BT to provide services for around 500,000 subscribers to the Post Office’s broadband and telephone service. BT had previously held a contract for the past four years, worth as much as £750 million to provide communications services.

Analyst provider TechMarketView commented that the contract could be easily “worth £500 million” and Anthony Miller, managing partner at the company said: ““As prime contractor, Fujitsu will be overseeing the entire migration process, both of the network and of the applications.”
