Proact IT Group: Proact Signs Infrastructure Hosting Contract with MTM

KISTA, Sweden–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Regulatory News:

Proact (STO:PACT) has signed a contract to provide IT Infrastructure
hosting for the Swedish Agency for Accessible Media (MTM), following a
procurement where the agency has sought an external service provider to
support its IT operations.

The public procurement which resulted in Proact submitting the winning
bid followed on MTM’s decision to assign its IT hosting and data centre
operations to an external service provider. The assignment for MTM was
initiated by Compose IT, the service provider which was acquired by
Proact in December 2015 as part of the strategic initiative to grow its
datacenter, hosting and cloud services, and which has since become an
integrated part of Proact’s Nordic business organisation.

“We look forward to working with Proact, to obtain updated, reliable
support for our IT operations which will help raise the quality of our
digital services, offering users quicker and more reliable access to
accessible media,” says Nader Svärd, IT Manager with MTM. “Proact made a
detailed effort in studying our tender documents and submitted a bid
which clearly reflects our needs and requirements.”

The Agency for Accessible Media is working under the administration of
the Ministry of Culture with the mission to give access to literature
and public information based on the means of each individual, regardless
of reading proficiency or disability. MTM offers a wide range of
services for people with reading disabilities, including talking books
and newspapers and braille publications.

“We are very satisfied and notably proud to welcome MTM as a new
customer,” says Anders Lerjestam, responsible for Proact’s managed cloud
services in the Nordics. “Through this assignment we will contribute to
a fascinating public service where technology creates amazing
opportunities for innovation.”

MTM has assigned hosting and management of all servers and databases to
Proact, including 24×7 monitoring for mission-critical functions, such
as the digital library Legimus. Also included are managed services for
networking and communications services, including Internet access,
firewall protection and WLAN.
