Fujitsu a natural choice for Halfords

Fujitsu has snagged a three year contract to provide IT maintenance and support for Halfords' 486 stores across the UK & Ireland.

The retailer has put a three-year plan in place, the aim of which is to transform its IT business in line with its people, processes, partners and technology. It is currently reviewing its IT suppliers with an aim to significantly reduce to a smaller set of strategic relationships. Following a competitive tender it chose Fujitsu to manage and maintain its IT hardware within the UK and Ireland stores.

“Providing a strong IT maintenance service to our colleagues in store enables them to deliver great service to our customers,” says Anna Barsby, CIO, Halfords. “Fujitsu was a natural choice, as a partner with tried and tested credentials which would strive to help us continuously improve the way we run our business. Beyond this contract, we’re talking to them about a number of future projects and are looking forward to welcoming them onboard as one of our strategic partners.”
