Defence and Security: IT Services and Solutions

Biometric and Secure solutions - In this increasingly important area, Fujitsu is leading the way with two factor authentication and other innovations. Recent developments include Palm Vein readers, which use infra-red light to read the faint pattern of veins on people’s hands.

The Fujitsu Future Concepts Centre - This resource converts ideas into reality at high speed, to demonstrate the ‘art of the possible’ and to deliver a proof of concept or pilot programme result within 90 days - guaranteed.

Forty years ago, Fujitsu (then ICL) invoiced its first IT project to the UK Ministry of Defence (MOD). Today, Fujitsu is one of the UK Defence industry's biggest IT partners. Mike Newman, Business Unit Director for Defence & Security at Fujitsu Services, talks about the work that Fujitsu undertakes in the defence space.

We have a theory about service - it’s irrelevant unless it’s exceptional. Just doing the contract doesn’t do the job.

We aim to deliver impeccable service - results that are, simply, faultless.

In 1982, we’d already been working alongside British forces for 15 years

Fujitsu has provided ideas and innovations for JWID, and latterly CWID, every year since 1997, helping to enhance operability between UK, NATO and the US. Coalition Warrior Interoperability Demonstration (CWID) is the UK part of a global military exercise that simulates conflict conditions.

Fujitsu is delivering the Joint Command and Control Support Programme (JC2SP) Interoperability Project (IOP) for the MOD. This provides enhanced Situational Awareness through openJOP, as well as Collaborative Working and Joint Task Management tools. Many of these components are integrated in Fujitsu’s demonstrations at CWID to de-risk the delivery programme.
