Zurich Financial Services outsources with CSC

Zurich Financial Services Group, the global financial services company, has signed off on IT services contract extension with the Computer Sciences Corporation (CSC). The deal, worth approximately £200 million to CSC, will see the companies continue their partnership for a further six years. 

CSC will assume responsibility for the provision of Zurich’s desktop services to its businesses in the UK, United States, Canada, Switzerland, Germany, Italy and Spain. CSC’s remit will cover remote and on-site IT support and software packaging and distribution to around 51,000 users.

Michael Paravicini, Chief Information Technology Officer at Zurich Financial Services Group, said: “CSC already provides support for the development and maintenance of our application software, and our expanded relationship will allow us to provide a more integrated holistic solution for our application support needs.”

CSC’s relationship with Zurich began in July 2004 when they signed a landmark seven-year global IT applications outsourcing contract.
