CYBIT ANNOUNCES NEW CONTRACTS
Cybit Holdings PLC ("Cybit") is pleased to announce new contracts worth at least
#325,000 with an expected expansion value of a further #500,000 in revenues over
the lifetime of the deals.
Cybit has secured a contract with Marshalls plc, ("Marshalls"), the UK's leading
manufacturer of landscape materials for the construction and home improvement
industries. Under the agreement, Cybit will supply and install its GPRS-based
telematics solution into Marshalls' 150 strong fleet and its primary
subcontractors, with ongoing technical support being provided for 5 years.
Cybit's technology provides Marshalls with the capability to significantly
improve the efficiency of its #35 million distribution business.
Cybit has also signed contracts with Associated British Nutrition &
Agri-products Limited (ABNA), the Agriculture Group of Associated British Foods,
marking its move into the lone worker solution market. Initially the deal will
equip 50 of ABNA's mobile workers with Cybit's HiPer portable telematics
devices, with the intent for a further 150 units. Cybit's telematic based
solutions will help ABNA provide a duty of care to its mobile employees when
working in remote areas.
Richard Horsman, Chief Executive of Cybit Holdings PLC, said:
"These groundbreaking deals further strengthen our market leading position
within the telematics industry. Marshalls is representative of a number of
projects where we are delivering enhanced customer value through integration of
telematics information with back office applications. The ABNA contract combines
Cybit's expertise as a Telematics Service Provider with specialist 24-7
emergency response services delivering duty of care compliance for field based
lone workers.
"These new contracts demonstrate the versatility of Cybit's telematics portfolio
and our ability to assist our customers in the implementation of cost management
and corporate governance solutions within an increasingly complex business
environment."
