Tieto Corporation   PRESS RELEASE   26 January 2011 at 12.00 am EET

 

Tieto and ABB Finland have renewed their service agreement which covers the maintenance services of critical business application servers and the SAP enterprise resource planning system platform.

Lari Niemi, CIO of ABB Finland, says: "We have a long history as Tieto's customer and we are used to relying on our partner's ability to come up with flexible, customer-centric solutions. The ongoing service renewal offers us new technology server environments which are reliable and scalable according to our needs both technically and commercially."

Ari Järvelä, Executive Vice President, Tieto Finland and the Baltic countries, says: "Tieto's service package ensures that the company's IT always corresponds with business needs. Production plants and other service points of industrial manufacturing - often geographically dispersed - process large amounts of information. The latest technology together with Tieto's service model form an entity offering local customer service combined with the advantages of a centralized solution."

"IT is increasingly packaged and consumed as a service. Tieto's strategy drives for higher differentiation and specialization and going forward, more focus is placed on productizing our high value adding services and offerings," Ari Järvelä sums up.
