KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia Airlines (MAS) and TATA Consultancy Services (TCS) have sealed a five-year contract for information technology (IT) infrastructure services.
“The partnership is part of MAS’ strategic outsourcing programme to transform its IT operations.
“This is in line with Business Transformation Plan to align the role of IT to the airline’s profit and loss,” MAS chief information officer, Faridah Abdul Rahman, said in a statement here yesterday.
The contract was signed by Faridah and TCS head of Asia Pacific, Vish Iyer.
Faridah said one of the key initiatives included fine-tuning MAS’ IT outsourcing strategy to deliver the required business results at lower cost.
“We will also continue to work with our key vendors to maximise service delivery and to proactively address other business requirements,” she said.
TCS will undertake IT infrastructure management of MAS’ data centres, IT networks and IT security.
