It's perfectly clear to me, because I have been reading about it for years in ComputerWeekly.

See this article from September 2001.

BT is responsible for building and managing the national service throughout its 15-year, £2.9bn contract, with Motorola the main sub-contractor for the supply of Tetra digital system infrastructure
