Under the extended contract, Diebold will take over the ownership of the German bank’s entire self-service fleet assets for the following ten years.
The expanded scope of responsibilities includes operations, maintenance as well as incident management of the systems.
Sparkasse Hannover IT and Service provider manager Patrick Schlicke said: “The operation of the self-service fleet is no longer one of Sparkasse Hannover’s core competencies.
“That’s why we decided to outsource the management of our self-service systems entirely to our long-standing service partner Diebold Nixdorf and only perform coordination and control tasks.”
