Mumbai : IT major, Patni, on Aug 25 said it has secured two contracts- a seven-figure, three-year contract from Scandinavia's The Codan Group and another from Serco Learning, a provider of innovative, 21st century educational technology solutions.

The Codan Group is part of the insurance giant RSA Group and operates in Denmark, Sweden and Norway. Codan invited five leading outsourcing companies, including Patni, to bid for the application management contract in September 2009, shortlisted three vendors in March 2010 and made its final decision to appoint Patni in June, the company said in a statement here.

The contract is to provide managed services around some of Scandinavia's core insurance platforms, the statement said. "We are delighted that Codan chose Patni to provide managed services around some of its core applications. This was a highly competitive bid but we were able to demonstrate our commitment to the client, strong understanding of the insurance sector and our plans for the Scandinavian region," Patni's President, EMEA, David Kemp, said.
