UXC Limited has signed a three-year $12 million plus, annuity cloud-based contract with Ixom, a market leader in water treatment and chemical distribution. Ixom, which was formerly part of Orica, is a new customer for UXC.

Additionally, UXC will assist Ixom to transition and migrate from the Orica hosted IT environment and provide application managed services and an Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) platform to support the business.  As part of the agreement, UXC will deliver the managed service desk, security, server management and desktop support as well as moving Ixom’s current SAP platform to a Microsoft Azure cloud-based platform, and will provide application support.

UXC MD Cris Nicolli said it would deliver a reliable cloud-based solution for mail, collaboration and business productivity that can be used anywhere, anytime, on any device.

“This project will deliver new capabilities including access to the latest IT tools and applications, which lets Ixom run its business through the cloud, including Office 365.  This will allow access to data anywhere, at any time as well as increasing enterprise mobility,” he noted.

This deal adds to the growing list of annuity based services contracts recently won by UXC that provide future revenue predictability and a strong opportunity within each customer to build ongoing project revenue streams, Nicolli said.

A summary of this contract award was referred to in UXC’s market announcement of 28 July 2015.
