IT giant Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) on Friday said it has secured a deal from Xerox to work on the latter’s IT infrastructure through cloud computing and generative artificial intelligence (GenAI).
The agreement, described as a landmark transformation programme, is designed to accelerate Xerox’s transition into a simplified, services-oriented, and software-driven organisation.
Under this deal, TCS will consolidate and modernise Xerox’s technology services to improve overall business outcomes. This includes migrating complex legacy data centres to the Azure public cloud and implementing a cloud-based Digital ERP platform. These technological advancements are expected to streamline Xerox’s business processes and enhance operational efficiency.
TCS plans to develop a new agile, cloud-first operating model specifically tailored for Xerox. Leveraging its expertise in AI through services like AI.Cloud and Enterprise Solutions (including TCS Crystallus), TCS will build an AI-first enterprise platform for Xerox. This platform will integrate generative AI into Xerox’s operations.
In a statement, V Rajanna, President, Technology, Software and Services, TCS, said, “Xerox and TCS have been on a collaboration and co-innovation journey for over two decades, which has grown from strength to strength transforming business functions from finance to HR along the way. We are now excited to partner with Xerox to support their Reinvention to create the foundation for long-term, sustainable growth by establishing the digital core leveraging cloud, AI and next-generation enterprise platforms.”
The partnership builds upon a longstanding relationship between Xerox and TCS, spanning over two decades of collaboration and co-innovation.
