Telecoms giant BT has won a £9m contract to deliver computer and data centre services for Bromley Council which is expected to cut costs by 10%.
Under the contract, set up by Westminster Council and available to all London boroughs, BT will deliver desktop services to 2,000 of Bromley’s staff and manage more than 350 servers.
The company says this will provide the council with clear and transparent pricing and a more efficient and streamlined buying process to speed up the delivery of projects and save money.
Council leader Stephen Carr said: 'As we move towards our vision of being a commissioning council, we needed a company that would deliver excellent service but also respond to the changing shape of our business.
'The pan-London ICT framework set up by Westminster City Council and delivered by BT gives us everything we need.
'It provides us with clear and transparent pricing and a more efficient and streamlined buying process, helping us to speed up the delivery of projects and save money.'
