Logica has signed a contract to supply British Energy with both back and front office IT services valued at £100m

The deal will allow British Energy's customers to access a variety of online services, including quotations and bill payment. Logica will implement its specialised utilities product, Nexus-MP, to control billing, payment processing, contact centre services and work management for British Energy's domestic customers.

Logica said the deal reaffirms its commitment to full business process outsourcing capabilities. The company plans to offer to other companies the back office support it has developed specifically for this contract.

British Energy is the privatised holding company for eight of the UK's nuclear power plants, and owns the electricity supply company, Swalec.
