Jarvis has awarded a seven year, £1.75m facilities
management contract to EuroTelecom Communications for IT and telecommunications
services at the Army Foundation College in Harrogate.
EuroTelecom said that in addition to providing services under the Jarvis
deal, which could be extended to up to 30 years, its on-site team will
also procure telephony and IT hardware.
AIM listed EuroTelecom supplies 'application linking' technology used
to create the communications backbone for intelligent buildings. The college
site is a new training campus being built on the site of a former Army
training establishment. The facility will accommodate 1,400 students for
12-month academic courses, many of which are IT based.
Phil Derry, EuroTelecom's Chief Executive said: "We are delighted
to have secured this long-term contract with Jarvis, one of the UK's leading
facilities management companies. We expect EuroTelecom's involvement with
Jarvis and the Army Foundation College to develop in both size and breadth
as the project progresses."
