DXC and AWS Extend Agreement, Includes Multi-Billion Dollar Integrated Practice

Extended agreement focused on building Integrated Practice.

By Umar Hassan

DXC and AWS (Amazon Web Services) have entered a new agreement that will see both companies modernise IT services and client migrations for clients.

Previously, the American IT services company has worked with clients such as British retailer Tesco and Dutch financial services multinational ING to name but a few.

In the agreement, it will see DXC and AWS build a multi-billion dollar DXC – AWS Integrated Practice, responsible for delivering IT migration, application transformation and business innovation to Fortune 1000 clients.

What Does the DXC and AWS Agreement Entail?

The Integrated Practice builds upon the current agreement with DXC and AWS where it is focused on moving clients’ existing IT applications and environments to the cloud.

Alongside this, the multi-year agreement between the two companies extends from the Integrated Practice and into joint development, marketing, sales and delivery of AWS.

Initially, the focus within the DXC – AWS Integrated Practice aims to work around DXC’s AWS offerings.

The areas that are being centred on are Managed security and compliance services for
