Airbus in the UK has extended its contract with BT by 24 months to manage and run the company’s securely encrypted wide area network (WAN).
The fully managed WAN – which Airbus runs its key supply chain management and logistics computer systems over – covers 22 UK sites, including Filton, near Bristol, and Broughton in North Wales.
Building on an existing contract with Airbus, BT’s WAN managed service will help Airbus share information internally between key departments, as well as externally with suppliers.
