TORONTO – Telus has signed a new five-year agreement, an extension of its original 2006 contract, with the Government of Ontario’s Ministry of Government Services to provide, manage and supply the provincial government’s portfolio of telecommunications, voice and data services, including IT security, for the entire network of the Government of Ontario.
"Telus was the first to bring a national internet-protocol network to Canada, and the Ontario government has leveraged this state-of-the-art technology to provide highly secure, cost-effective, leading edge network services across the province,” said Joe Natale, Telus’ chief commercial officer, in the press release.
The company will continue to provide the Government of Ontario with fully managed services including all network components and an IT security solution suite that recognizes the importance of information security to the public sector and to the citizens of Ontario.
