Global IT services provider FPT said it has entered into a comprehensive strategic alliance with ANA Systems, the IT division of ANA Group. Under this partnership, the two companies will establish a joint operational framework to drive the continuous improvement and stability of the IT infrastructure within the ANA Group. The operational framework will serve as a foundation for more efficient management and delivery of IT services across the ANA Group and its affiliates, including All Nippon Airways.

Currently, with the aim of further strengthening our collaborative relationship, we are establishing a laboratory structure, conducting joint activities to develop new projects, and promoting a human resources development program. We expect this to significantly contribute to the growth of our businesses and the acceleration of friendly relations between our two countries,” said Masashi Ohya, President and Representative Director of ANA Systems.
