IFB has been awarded a 300k contract to deliver and support a full fibre network and high-capacity hardware to nearly 50 key Aberdeen City Council education locations.
The agreement, in partnership with EXPO.e, will futureproof the delivery of critical services across schools and educational resources across the city.
IFB CEO Graeme Gordon said: “IFB's selection for this project demonstrates that collaboration between the public sector, enterprise scale organisations like EXPO.e, and indigenous SME’s like IFB not only delivers creative solutions to problems, but innovations in how these can be procured and delivered, maximising the resulting economic benefit to a city or region."
IFB and EXPO.e’s solution connects the education sites back to two key council data centres, providing a highly resilient network.
EXPO.e Head of Channel Liam Montague said: “We anticipate the success of this partnership will provide the model for future projects of a similar nature across the region, helping further optimise the delivery of critical services for citizens.”
