NNIT and Vestas extend collaboration with focus on data and flexibility
Copenhagen, June 8, 2018 – NNIT, a leading provider of IT services and consultancy, announces that it has signed an extension of its agreement with Vestas, a market leader in sustainable energy solutions.
Over the next five years, NNIT A/S will continue to deliver global IT infrastructure and operations to Vestas and hereby provide the digital services and infrastructure that enable Vestas to leverage data to deliver market leading energy solutions.
The agreement marks the continuation of a five-year-long successful collaboration, initiated in December 2013, now allowing for a higher degree of flexibility. The agreement is thus a combination of a base agreement and a number of add-on agreements allowing for a more flexible and scalable design.
Commenting on the agreement, Senior Vice President at NNIT Jacob Hahn Michelsen explains:
“Vestas is a pioneer within sustainable energy and as a global leader the company continues to develop its technology foundation. Vestas’ decision to prolong this collaboration with this more flexible agreement confirms NNIT’s ability to deliver today and meet tomorrow’s requirements in a world where technology constantly expands our possibilities.”
Morten Duus, Vice President of Global IT, Vestas is also looking forward to the continued collaboration and says:
“Vestas continues to bring down the cost of energy across its energy solutions, which among other things include using data to optimize across the entire value chain as well as engaging in deals with the flexibility that can meet our changing needs. With this new agreement, NNIT has shown a strong focus on meeting our requirements for flexibility and created a setup that fits nicely into our strategy.”
The agreement is effective as of January 2019 and runs until end 2023, replacing the existing agreement, which expires in 2018.
NNIT has approximately 350 clients of which around 100 are located outside Denmark. Some 20% are international life science clients (January 2018).
