TietoEnator's new business structure and Leadership Team drive focus
on customer value, sharper competencies and growth of our people

TietoEnator will launch a new operating model and has appointed the
new Leadership Team, effective as of 1 January 2009. The new
operating model supports TietoEnator's new strategy, which puts an
increasing focus on customers, knowledge assets and the development
of our people. With these concrete steps, TietoEnator is
strengthening its position as a strong performance driven
professional service company, based in Northern Europe and Russia.

A more agile and integrated company
The new model has three building blocks: country operations,
industries and service lines. The current structure, which is based
on business areas, will cease to exist. Based on these changes, the
company is transforming into a horizontally integrated company with
fewer organizational units and stronger company-wide operations. For
TietoEnator's employees, the new model creates more opportunities for
professional development and growth.

While increasing country and customer focus, the new operating model
will improve the sharing of knowledge and resources across
industries, countries and global competence centres. The new model
also results in sharpened roles and responsibilities between sales,
delivery and development. These factors altogether will enhance
agility and customer value as well as improve efficiency and quality.

Countries drive deep customer centricity and resource optimization
In the new structure, countries will have a stronger role than
before. Dedicated country organizations, with a full TietoEnator
service mix, will be established in six countries: Finland, Sweden,
Norway, Denmark, Germany and Russia. In other TietoEnator countries
of operation, the service mix is based on the needs of our strategic
industries and customers. The country organizations will have a
profit and loss responsibility and they will concentrate on driving
customer relationships and capturing local business and growth
opportunities. They will also be responsible for resource
optimization.

Industry expertise boosting value creation towards customers
TietoEnator will serve customers in the following industries:
Telecom, Financial services, Forest, Energy, Healthcare & Welfare,
Manufacturing, Government, Retail and Media. The industry units will
manage global customers together with countries and develop strong
industry specific offerings. Industries' role in countries will vary
depending on business size and the nature of the customer base. Some
industries are looking for growth across main markets. Some
industries, such as Government, Retail and Media, are more market
specific and will be lead according to the local country strategies.
The industry organizations will have a profit and loss
responsibility.

Service lines drive competence development and horizontal offerings
TietoEnator will have three service lines - IT, R&D and Digital
Transformation and Consulting (DTC). The service lines will be
responsible for the delivery of services, horizontal offerings, and
the development of company-wide competencies. They will also be
responsible for the implementation of TietoEnator's global delivery
model. The service lines will operate in a harmonized way across
countries.
