Tieto and the Finnish Institute of Occupational Health have concluded an agreement to outsource the Institute's information and communications technology services to Tieto.

It is worth around four million euros.

A large number of the services will be delivered based on capacity, which will mean greater cost-effectiveness and flexibility when it comes to changing services to respond to the Institute's needs.

"Outsourcing in the Finnish public sector is not on such as scale usually, so we are very happy with the Institute's decision," says Jarmo Hyyryläinen Vice President from Processing & Network business area at Tieto. "Our solution was based on our stardardised services, which would serve the customer's needs well. We can guarantee that the Institute of Occupational Health will be receiving top quality, cost-effective IT services."
