ESPOO, Finland, Jan. 9, 2002 (PRIMEZONE) -- TietoEnator and the Swedish Agency for Public Management have signed a general agreement regarding the supply of analysis consultants. The agreement further strengthens TietoEnator's position as supplier of IT services to the public sector in Sweden.
The Agency's general agreement is valid for two years for all state authorities as well as a large number of local authorities, county councils and other organizations.
The agreement concerns analysis consultants, that is to say, consultants who give advice in strategic matters. A typical example can apply to the establishment and maintenance of IT strategies, or assessments of new leading-edge technology.
The general agreement is expected to turn over approximately SEK 15 million per year.
- We are very pleased that the Swedish Agency for Public Management has chosen to sign agreements with TietoEnator. We have full-service operations within the public sector with IT consultants, solutions, operational contracts, products and now even strategic IT advisory service. The current agreement is an important supplement to the 20 or so general agreements that we already have with the state sector authorities, says Rolf Qwarnstrom, MD of TietoEnator Trigon AB, the company within the TietoEnator Group that co-ordinates the analysis services.
The general agreement with the Swedish Agency for Public Management is a part of TietoEnator's establishment of IT consultancy efforts in the state sector in Sweden.
