Fujitsu rakes in more public sector work after Post Office scandal

Fujitsu has secured nearly £453 million in public sector contracts from 2024 to 2025, despite pledging not to bid for new government work following the Post Office scandal. This represents a 1% increase from the previous year, even as lawmakers call for the company to be barred from government tenders due to its faulty Horizon accounting system, which led to the wrongful convictions of over 900 Post Office workers. The ongoing inquiry into the scandal has not deterred Fujitsu from winning multimillion-pound contracts, raising concerns among former Post Office workers about the adequacy of the compensation scheme.
