Business Forum
Bittnet Systems has announced that its subsidiary, Dendrio Solutions, has signed a significant framework agreement with a public sector client.

The contract, valued at up to RON 143 million (€28.7 million), is for the supply of IT equipment.

The agreement, which is a framework contract, does not obligate the client to order the maximum value of products but sets the potential ceiling for future orders over the implementation period. 

The project's scope includes the delivery, installation, testing, and knowledge transfer for hybrid storage and back-up solutions to expand the client's IT capacity. 

The implementation is set to span 36 months from the signing of the agreement.
