LIMERICK, Ireland, Oct. 27, 2022 /CNW/ - kneat.com, inc. (TSX: KSI) (OTC: KSIOF) ("Kneat" or "the Company"), a leader in digitizing and automating validation and quality processes, is pleased to announce it has signed a three-year Master Services Agreement (the "Agreement") with one of the world's largest healthcare companies.
This U.S. headquartered company has over 40,000 employees worldwide. After an extensive evaluation process against multiple competitors, the corporate team selected Kneat as their global enterprise solution. Kneat was chosen for its ease of use, product vision and proven track record of providing an effective tool for clients committed to industry leading compliance.
The Agreement is effective immediately and allows the company to scale Kneat to all its validation processes across all its divisions and affiliates. Initially, it is being deployed for Computer System Validation (CSV) and will be used to manage the validation lifecycle of up to fifty IT systems across eight countries. Implementation will commence immediately, with an expected go-live date in Q1 2023.

This is a new three-year SaaS Master Services Agreement. The customer will scale to 2,000 users initially with a plan to expand to 6,000 over the contract term.
