The Finnish Transport and Communications Agency Traficom has selected Tieto’s Tech Consulting unit (formerly Tietoevry Create) as a provider of quality assurance and testing services based on an extensive tender process during the autumn. The procurement is for a comprehensive service, where Tieto Tech Consulting is responsible for providing the services throughout the entire software development and maintenance lifecycle. The procurement consists of two phases: an implementation project and a continuous service.
The contract period is five years, and it can be extended by two one-year option periods. The estimated value of the procurement for the entire contract period is approximately 24 million euros, and its scope is estimated at 28,000 person-days. Tieto received the highest quality scores in the tender.
The service covers, among other things, testing services, quality assurance development, and performance testing. The quality assurance and testing services primarily target systems implemented by Traficom itself. Test automation will be widely utilized, and the goal is at least 30% cost savings during the contract period. The service scales flexibly according to Traficom’s needs.
Tieto Tech Consulting offers its clients agile and scalable digital development services that support business renewal and growth. Traficom’s procurement strengthens Tieto’s position as a reliable technology partner in the public sector.
