- Strength 1 (25 words max)
- Describes a global Tier 1 IP backbone with 125,000 km of undersea cable.
- Strength 2 (25 words max)
- Names Palo Alto Prisma Access and Cisco Secure Access for SASE.
- Strength 3 (25 words max)
- Listed on CCS Network Services 3 and G-Cloud.
- Weakness 1 (25 words max)
- No MPLS or IP VPN page was found on the NTT DATA UK site, so MPLS evidence sits on the NTT Communications Japan site.
- Weakness 2 (25 words max)
- No UK PoP count, NOC location or performance targets were found.
- Weakness 3 (25 words max)
- Layer 3 IP VPN evidence is for a different entity and country, so it is not recorded as Proven.
- Buyer size fit (comma separated: Large global enterprise, Mid-market, Small business)
- Large global enterprise
- Verdict (40 words max; must include one figure from the fact sheets and the review month)

Providers
- Slug
- ntt-data
- Notes
- Legal name and number are a Companies House name match only. Contracting entity, parent, type, URLs and Ofcom status not yet reviewed. Check which NTT entity sells network services in the UK. Re-check of the outside research pass, 2026-10-01 (page-reader wording; confirm on the page): The earlier MPLS wording came only from a 2016 Six Degrees Cloud on Demand document. The current UK pages (Managed Network Services, Global Network Services) do not mention MPLS. The 190+ countries figure is for SD-WAN, not PoPs. Pick n Pay (South Africa), Mondi (global) and HUBER+SUHNER (Switzerland) are not UK cases, so no sector rows are entered. Cells filled on 2026-10-02 from the outside research pass are Partial unless the re-check confirmed them. Not found means the pass searched and saw nothing, not that it does not exist. Verify each against its source row, then set Decision. Fourth research pass 2026-10-02, page-reader summaries: MPLS or IP VPN service page URL: figure seen but not entered (https://ntt.com/universalone_e/data/features.html). Page is the NTT Communications Japan site (Universal One), undated, reader suggests about 2017. Not the NTT DATA UK site. uk.nttdata.com/ser
