Belnet enters into an agreement with Nomios Netherlands for the support and expansion of its high-end network infrastructure. It concerns a contract of 13 million euro.

Selection of Nomios Netherlands

Nomios Netherlands has been selected by Belnet as the most economically advantageous offer in the public tender with European publication based on a list of strict criteria and sub-criteria based on quality and price. The framework agreement with Nomios Netherlands will run for five years during which time Nomios Netherlands will be responsible for the maintenance of Belnet's existing and future optical and IP network infrastructure, the delivery of additional equipment and the associated services.
