Swoop has signed a five-year contract worth over $5 million with Orro Group to provide National Broadband Network (NBN) enterprise ethernet services in Western Australia.

The contract, signed through Swoop’s subsidiary, NodeOne, will bring fibre connectivity to more than 150 locations in Western Australia. The deal will use NodeOne’s direct connectivity to all 14 NBN Points of Interconnect (POIs) in the state.

“NodeOne is the only WA-based retail service provider with direct connectivity to all the NBN POIs,” claims Swoop CEO Alex West. “When you combine this with the relationship we have with NBN and Orro Group, and our local support and account management teams, it gave us a unique offering.”

“NodeOne has a large local presence in Perth and regional WA, and this has been a big factor in choosing NodeOne as our preferred NBN Retail Service Provider to deliver this important contract,” affirms Orro Group Western Australia managing director David Povey.

Swoop says the project is expected to be completed by the end of the first half of the financial year in 2022.

Last February, Swoop relisted on the Australian Securities Exchange through a reverse takeover deal worth $61.3 million. It was acquired by publicly-listed company Stemify.
