A SPECIALIST IT provider is joining forces with the nuclear industry to help improve network services.

Yellowbus Solutions Ltd, based at Birchwood Park, is partnering with the National Nuclear Laboratory to improve how network and IT services are delivered to the nuclear industry.

As part of the ongoing project, NNL is looking to make improvements across all areas to support its overall objectives.

Mike Douglass, commercial director at Yellowbus, said: “At Yellowbus we want to change the way the nuclear sector views IT and technology.

“Tech should be looked at as a business advantage and used to its full potential.

“When objectives are aligned with the correct IT strategy, then business growth and innovation will improve.”

“We have worked with NNL for many years and have similar goals on innovation within nuclear.

“We have had the opportunity to support NNL’s mission with their IT improvement projects, and with both businesses now being located within the science corridor at Birchwood Park, we look forward to a long and successful partnership with them.”

Nichola Newton, head of IT at NNL, said: “Yellowbus has been a fundamental partner in supporting the National Nuclear Laboratory IT department’s commitment to improve network coverage and resilience across all of its sites.

“Yellowbus continues to understand NNL IT needs and collaborates effectively to ensure these are achieved.”
