Datacentrix: Exxaro deal extended by 5 years

MINING giant Exxaro has extended a five-year outsourcing contract for Datacentrix, the provider of ICT solutions, for the second time. The new deal will see Datacentrix continue to manage Exxaro’s operations integration, enterprise services, and services relating to the company’s sites, network, servers and storage. “With a partnership spanning more than a decade, Datacentrix has moved beyond being Exxaro’s technology partner to becoming a trusted advisor; one that is seen as an extension of Exxaro itself rather than an external service provider,” said Abrie Peens, outsource and managed services managing director at Datacentrix. Datacentrix shares on the JSE added 0.48 percent to end the day at R4.17. – Staff Reporter
