The tech conglomerate will work with KBR and Leidos to modernise Defence’s network environment.
Fujitsu has signed a three-year contract with the Australian Department of Defence to modernise the department’s network infrastructure and end-user computing that is used to support field operations and exercises for the Australian Defence Force (ADF). Under the AU$175 million program, Fujitsu will work in partnership with Defence’s partners KBR and Leidos to provide services including service desk functions, end-user and workstation support, VoIP and email communications, collaboration tools, network infrastructure, and network services management across all Defence operations. Other deliverables under the contract, according to Fujitsu, include continuous in-service deployed IT environments that “are an essential part of Defence’s operational capability” and developing “centrally-governed security and accreditation and enterprise governance”.
