Scheme Summary

Scottish Water has appointed two new Digital Partners as part of its ongoing technology transformation. BT Business takes Networks & Security Services — end-to-end responsibility for Scottish Water's connectivity and security estate, including around 7,000 network connections and a converged Network/Security Operations Centre. Accenture takes Applications Management Services, focused on the performance, stability and continuous improvement of Scottish Water's enterprise applications. Two separate contracts announced together — worth flagging for IT/OT integrators and cyber-security specialists working the Scottish water sector.
