Atos to deploy and manage intelligent network for Siemens
Healthineers with seven-year contract
Paris, France
– October
26th,
2022 – Atos
today announces the win of a seven-year contract with Siemens
Healthineers to provide, deploy and manage Software Defined Access
(SDA)-enabled global LAN (local area network) services in close to
60 customer locations in 15 countries. This contract showcases
Atos’ ability and commitment, as global network infrastructure
partner, to support Siemens Healthineers on its journey towards a
modernized and independent LAN network based on Cisco SDA.
Siemens Healthineers is striving for a network
technology that addresses the challenges of a changing world where
experts and R&D teams need to collaborate, independent of their
location across the globe. To that end, the provided SDA LAN
service will replace the legacy LAN service and will help to bring
together the worlds of Siemens Healthineers and Varian by enabling
global network collaboration.
By relying on a SDA-enabled LAN technology,
Siemens Healthineers will not only benefit from a stable and robust
but also from a more flexible network, including all the advantages
of an automated network, an easy-to-handle access administration
and a secure environment with a ZeroTrust approach.
The solution ensures reliable, IoT ready and
stable operations by leveraging Atos' deep understanding of the
business intentions of Siemens Healthineers for its network. It
also builds on Atos’ state-of-the-art network management practices,
supported and continuously improved by our own network experts.
The solution proposed by Atos leverages the
results of the SDA-specific Design Project conducted by Siemens
Healthineers and Atos in partnership with Cisco. The result
demonstrates innovative features, such as micro segmentation,
automation and how they can be incorporated into the solution
design and operational set-up.
As the current provider, Atos can reuse recently
refreshed SDA-ready devices from the installed base, as well as the
customer specific tool interfaces and IT service management (ITSM)
processes, enabling a seamless, cost-efficient 24-month
transformation with no or minimal impact on business users and
their processes.
Nourdine
Bihmane, co-CEO
in charge of Tech Foundations, Atos said “We are delighted
to support Siemens Healthineers in their digitization journey and
help transform their network infrastructure with the purpose of
enhancing collaboration throughout the company. The project in
partnership with Cisco is yet another example of Atos’ mission to
securely deliver innovative technologies for business change while
maintaining continuity.”
Dr. Stefan Henkel, Head of IT of Siemens
Healthineers said “With this agreement, we are renewing
our trust in our partnership with Atos to transform and innovate
network services for our manufacturing sites and R&D labs
towards a Zero-Trust-Architecture. This transformation program is
an essential cornerstone of our journey to Digitalize the Core of
Siemens Healthineers. We look forward to executing the program
together with Atos, to build an innovative, resilient, and
efficient foundational service for our new network
infrastructure.”
