TietoEnator offers administration of payroll and HRM solutions in Denmark


ESPOO, Finland, January 24, 2003 (PRIMEZONE) -- TietoEnator (Other OTC:TCYBF) and Lindhardt Loen og Personale A/S have signed a dealership agreement allowing TietoEnator to sell Lindhardts payroll system, Multiflex.

TietoEnator now can offer a complete line of products within administration of payroll and HRM solutions in the Danish market. The agreement also further strengthens TietoEnator's position in the Nordic region and means among other things, that TietoEnator is able to offer comprehensive administration of payroll and HRM solutions to international companies establishing themselves in the Nordic countries.

"The payroll system is the final and most essential product in the well- assorted line of products that TietoEnator offers in Denmark. Today, we have solutions for registering working hours, travel expenses, and personnel development. Now we can also offer a payroll system customised for the Danish market. Lindhardt was a natural choice. They have a technically sound and flexible product," says Tove Borritz Witt, Business Manager for HRM in Denmark.

"We have not previously sought partners, but when TietoEnator proposed to us we realised that this was a company with sufficient experience to handle the task. For Lindhardt Loen og Personale A/S the partnership means that we can offer our customers a wider range of choices within HRM - many customers, particularly in the high-end market, have demanded the products that TietoEnator can supply. This is a positive development that strengthens our position in the market. And we have our first joint customer already," states Kenneth Lee, Managing Director of Lindhardt Loen og Personale A/S.

The agreement with Lindhardt Loen og Personale A/S also means that customers will be able to benefit from a Shared Service Center (SSC). SSC is a system where companies can rent access - a solution ideal for companies that do not wish to maintain their own payroll system.
