TurnIT Consulting selected as IT supplier to FMV

TurnIT Consulting selected as IT supplier to FMV In a procurement process for master agreements covering about 95,000 hours of IS/IT consultancy services through to the end of 2001, TurnIT Consulting has been selected as a supplier. Several companies in the TurnIT Consulting group have carried out a number of contracts for the Swedish Armed Forces and FMV, the Defense Materiel Administration, over many years. FMV expects very high standards from its selected IT suppliers in meeting the needs of FMV and the armed forces. The choice of TurnIT Consulting as an IT supplier reflects TurnIT Consulting 's extensive expertise in systems development and the fact that together, all the companies within the business area are able to offer FMV a wide range of relevant cutting-edge skills. - "The master agreement with FMV strengthens TurnIT Consulting's position as one of the leading IT suppliers. FMV will be co-operating increasingly with the defense materiel procurement authorities in other countries, and for TurnIT Consulting this is an important step towards its goal of establishing itself as one of the leading suppliers of IT consultancy services in Scandinavia within two years," says Peter Enström, President of TurnIT AB, in his comment on the agreement. TurnIT Consulting is a business area within TurnIT AB - one of Sweden's larger listed IT groups on the OM Stockholm Stock Exchange's Attract40 list. TurnIT has 1150 employees. Its business idea is to act as an IT partner, and, through the acquisition of companies in different areas of the IT market, to offer a share lower in risk than the average for IT shares in general. Operations are divided over five business areas; Consulting, Software, Communication, Outsourcing and Supplies. It also includes TurnIT Development, which invests in IT companies at an early stage of development.
