Thought this was worth posting: BT staff have just had a CWU newsletter through the post saying that BT have commited to going to zero third party work. They want everything back in house. I have heard for a while they are not happy with the work being done by contracting firms. The permanent BT staff aren't happy either as they are messing up the network.

The problem is BT have a 2 year deal with the contracting firms so that has to be honoured before letting them go. We are already starting to see some things coming back in house. SOME of the fibre cabinet comissioning is already back in house. Previously this was all done by contractors.
