Founded in 2002, 2e2 has developed with a mix of organic growth and targeted acquisition, but during that time, 2e2 had always been what chief executive Terry Burt described as an "envelope brand", taking advantage of the brand equity that came with each of its acquisitions.  In 2006, that strategy made way for a re-branding, with group companies such as networking communications specialist Prime Business Solutions, IT services company Norsk Data and data management specialist TriSys coming together under the 2e2 identity, a single entity that made it easier to deliver a more complete and integrated solution.  A part of this integration has been the launch of a new managed services centre at Newbury which provides a focal point for service delivery.

The £1.7 million contract with VINCI Park, which follows a five month tender process, includes the provision of helpdesk, hardware and software support as well as remote management and is anticipated to immediately deliver 15 per cent operational savings - a figure which is expected to rise following a technology refresh and once call escalation and handling  processes have been improved.

'We continually strive to provide our customers with the best possible service through expertise, innovation and agility and the managed services offering is evidence of our continued commitment,' said Terry Burt.  'We are delighted to have been awarded the VINCI contract and we are looking forward to working closely with them to support their business growth', Burt added.
