AT&T has won a 12-year, $175 million contract with the U.S. Department of Transportation to modernize the agency’s enterprise network infrastructure and services.
Under the Enterprise Infrastructure Services award, AT&T will provide U.S. DoT with virtual private networking, security services, IP-based voice, cloud access and other related enterprise communications services.
“We’re here to help them transform their communications systems on the data side: Fiber networks and VPN and MPLS and everything that goes in an enterprise-class network,” said Chris Smith, AT&T’s VP of civilian and shared services, public sector and FirstNet, adding that DoT employees need to be able to access cloud-based workloads as well as voice and unified communications and online collaboration tools.
