PÖYRY PLC Press release 7 March 2012
Pöyry and Metsä Group have signed a frame agreement for technical consulting and
engineering services. The frame agreement will enable easy cooperation in small
and medium sized operations improvement and engineering assignments and provide
Metsä Group access to Pöyry's global service network.
According to the agreement, Pöyry will provide Metsä Group with mill lifecycle
services ranging from project development services to daily operational
engineering work and document management services.
The new agreement is a further step in the long history of cooperation between
Metsä Group and Pöyry, which started already in 1958 with Pöyry's first
assignment for the engineering of the Äänekoski pulp mill.
"This agreement further strengthens our co-operation with Metsä Group by
bringing value added services for the whole life cycle of a mill", comments
Nicholas Oksanen, President, Pulp & Paper.
"From now on Pöyry's project management, technology know-how and engineering
services are easily available for the client through our broad international
office network", says Stefan Nyström, President, Local Service Network.
"We have a long history with Pöyry, who has provided us wide range of
engineering services. As we want to focus on the continuous and efficient
development of our mills, we needed a partner who knows our operations and is
capable of providing state-of-the-art know-how and services. I look forward to
our extended co-operation", says Arto Kankaanpää, Head of Main Category, Mill
related Support Services from Metsä Group.
