World-Leading Cosmetic Brand Gets ‘IT Makeover’ With EasyVista
Staff&Line ‘cleans up’, closing a new deal with one of the world’s biggest companies in the beauty industry
Noisy-le-Grand,France, 23rd July 2007: Staff&Line UK, the UK division of one of the leading publishers of IT Management software solutions, certified by Pink Elephant [1] as ITIL®-compatible, has won a new contract with a household brand in the cosmetic market.
This well-known brand will implement EasyVista, Staff&Line’s third generation IT management platform, in the coming few months, providing the organisation with an integrated and modular approach to IT management. Many solutions available in the market today are very fragmented, with long and expensive implementation cycles which usually involve expensive maintenance cost, duplication of data, making it difficult for the organisation to obtain a consolidated view.
This agreement forms part of a worldwide partnership deal with the company who optimise the purchasing decisions of 100 subsidiaries on behalf of the group. EasyVista is available to all the subsidiaries across Europe. This includes IT Asset Management, Help Desk and Exchange Management (as a minimum), helping this market-leading company to manage and standardise inventory purchases at a group level.
Gregory Lefort, Managing Director, Staff&Line UK says: “We are helping more than 3,300 companies in Europe control and reduce IT costs and with our pioneering, web-based IT management solution. This new contract demonstrates that we are closing deals with big brand names here in the UK, as well as in Europe. Since acquiring SAM UK in November last year we have developed an enviable pipeline of new EasyVista deals. Watch this space, there will be many more customer contract announcements throughout this summer.”
