Capgemini, the provider of consulting, technology and outsourcing services, has signed an agreement with the UK's Horizon Nuclear Power, which is planning to build the Wylfa Newydd NPP.

Under the three-year agreement, Capgemini will develop a new Nuclear Centre of Excellence. The company said it will "use the latest technology to provide leading IT services and produce innovative project solutions".

As part of this, Capgemini said it will develop a multi-channel service desk to help enable first class end user experience for all employees; a state of the art security operations centre which will be delivered from its Inverness-based Security Operations Centre; and the creation of a fully scalable cloud platform which will have the ability to scale up based on the business’s future growth aspirations.
