The Swedish National Road Administration Signs General Agreement with TietoEnator


ESPOO, Finland, Jan. 16, 2003 (PRIMEZONE) -- TietoEnator (Other OTC:TTNTF) (Stockholm:TIEN) and the National Road Administration have signed a general agreement concerning the supply of IT consultancy services. The agreement is in line with TietoEnator's strategy of increasing consultancy focus within the state sector in Sweden.

The National Road Administration general agreement is valid for two years with an option of a one year extension and concerns services within most of the development areas.

"The general agreement that has now been signed considerably strengthens our position in the state market where we have previously signed general agreements with some 20 authorities. The National Road Administration is a large purchaser of consultant services within a great number of interesting areas," said Carl-Johan Lindfors, responsible for TietoEnator's business area Public & Healthcare.

"We can see many synergy effects with this general agreement. TietoEnator has extensive operations with the Finnish National Road Administration and we hope now that we and the Swedish National Road Administration can reap benefits from this," he continued.

"TietoEnator has already had previous business with the National Road Administration concerning case and document management," said Lennart Larsson, Marketing Manager of TietoEnator Public Sector and responsible for the contacts with the National Road Administration. "The general agreement now in question means, for example, that we will increase our presence in Borlange in the first instance."
