Specifically, Fujitsu Australia and New Zealand has signed a three-year managed services contract with Horizon Power. Horizon is Western Australia’s state government-owned utility company, which provides electricity for over 4,200 customers throughout Western Australia.Fujitsu will provide Horizon Power staff and contractors with the following managed services:
Service Desk

Capacity Management
Support for email and Citrix applications
VoIP Telephone System Support
End-User Device Support
Meeting Room Technologies

Fujitsu’s managed services will help Horizon Power provide greater efficiency to all of its service areas and improve its own infrastructure security. It will also give Fujitsu the opportunity to showcase its energy sector management skills, according to Fujitsu Australia and New Zealand CEO Mike Foster. “We will be able to lever our Energy Sector expertise as well as our significant investments in the local region to deliver a seamless infrastructure support service,” Foster said in a prepared statement.
Elsewhere, Fujitsu has been working with Microsoft on the Windows Azure cloud strategy. On August 1, Fujistu launched its first global cloud platform service that is powered by Microsoft Windows Azure since the two companies struck a deal in July 2010.
