Proact signs new deal with the Norwegian Tax Administration

Proact has signed a new framework agreement worth 150 million Norwegian kroner with the Norwegian Tax Administration, Skatteetaten.

In 2019, Proact and Skattetaten signed a new multi-year framework agreement. As part of this agreement Proact will continue to partner with Skattetaten to deliver data centre infrastructure solutions, including support services.

“To support the modernisation and innovation IT projects within Skattetaten, we are implementing additional converged solutions based on FlexPod. This will further improve and develop Skatteetaten’s IT infrastructure platforms”, says Ellen Grasbakken, Managing Director, Proact Norway.

“With the first framework agreement already signed in 2015, we are now able to continue our journey together as we focus on making use of IT to bring extra business value to Skattetaten”, Grasbakken continues.

The infrastructure that Proact is to provide is based on FlexPod, combining world-class technology from NetApp and Cisco in a pre-validated architecture. Proact will also implement an integrated backup solution based on Commvault technology.

Skatteetaten is amongst the most modernisation-eager entities in the public sector. With an automatisation and digitalisation strategy, Skattetaten is expecting to not only open up new innovative possibilities but also to ensure great cost benefits from the investments.

"This is of course a very interesting customer of ours; one that is able to make use of our experience, capabilities and portfolio. We are very happy to continue work with an organisation that is leading the way when it comes to IT strategy”, says Grasbakken.
