The Legal Ombudsman has selected systems integrator 2e2 to provide its critical business services over the next three years.
2e2 will provide business applications, on-premises services, on and off-premises service management, datacentre hosting, security, network services and end user training to the new body, which will be based in central Birmingham.
2e2 has been working on the project since March this year, and expects to complete the integration of its end-to-end IT services well before this date.
The Legal Ombudsman is a new body being established by the Office for Legal Complaints to ensure consumers of legal services have an independent and impartial way to resolve disputes involving their lawyer. It expects to be up and running by early October.
