Diversified energy services company selects brightsolid

Senergy has awarded brightsolid a 3 year, six figure, contract for a managed multi-site MPLS network providing a high performance and secure infrastructure.

Diversified energy services company Senergy has selected brightsolid’s multi-site internet access solution for its UK operations in a contract worth several hundred thousand pounds over three years.

The deal followed Senergy’s decision to consolidate the technologies it used for wide-area networking at its operations across the UK, each with bandwidth of up to 100 Mb.

The three year contract was awarded to brightsolid, following a competitive tender process. Senergy currently operates seven UK sites, with further growth anticipated during 2009-2010.

Grant Cooper, Senergy’s IT Manager explained: “We are expanding our innovative technical and operational solutions across the UK, and previously bought internet access services from several suppliers. This deal allows us to consolidate our investment into a single contract, making it more efficient and cost-effective.

“Senergy is headquartered in Aberdeen, with offices throughout the UK and in key international energy hubs. As such it is critical that we have reliable and high quality internet access with instant support at all times.”

The company will have a private circuit connecting each office, as well as full Net access, using Multi Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) in a very secure network.

brightsolid chief executive officer Chris van der Kuyl commented:

“This deal from Senergy builds on brightsolid’s already strong position in the oil & gas sector. We provide a broad range of Managed IT services to customers along the entire length of the oil & gas supply chain.

“brightsolid is winning business during the economic downturn because many customers are choosing to consolidate their IT services. We are helping an increasing number of organisations take significant cost out of their business, while at the same time improving the performance of their IT infrastructure and greatly increase their operational agility.”
