TCS to back Royal Haskoning's growth plans

NEW DELHI, INDIA: Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), an IT provider, on Tuesday announced that it has signed a multi-million IT infrastructure deal with Royal Haskoning, a Netherlands-based multi-disciplinary firm, to support its rapid growth plans by providing a flexible and controlled support environment.

The scope of the project covers end-to-end IT infrastructure services, which would be provided from TCS’ global delivery centers in the Netherlands, Hungary and India, said a press release.

The services include a multi-lingual service desk, data center hosting and management, end user computing services, application support services and transformation solutions, the release added.

“In Tata Consultancy Services we have found a full service partner offering us round the clock service, broad expertise and experience and strong technology alliances. Their delivery model will give our company the necessary support,” said Eric Overvoorde, chief information officer, Royal Haskoning.

The services would be delivered using TCS’ proprietary 'white box' engagement model, a framework to design, build and run IT infrastructures.

This engagement would help Royal Haskoning optimize their existing assets and allow them to focus on their business performance and international growth plans in Europe and emerging markets.
