Vodafone wins 24 million euro contract with Spanish Ministry of Defense
Vodafone has secured a 24 million euro contract to renew the mobile services for the Spanish Ministry of Defense's information infrastructure (I3D). The I3D serves as the foundational framework that unifies and supports the information systems and digital services for the Ministry and the Armed Forces.
Vodafone's bid was the highest-rated according to technical and economic criteria, surpassing the next competitor by 11.25 points. The contract is considered critical for ensuring the availability, security, and continuity of the Ministry's mobile communications.
This award reinforces Vodafone's existing role in the Spanish defense and security sector. The company currently provides a private 5G network for the Military Emergencies Unit (UME) and offers telecommunications services to the Civil Guard.
