TCS bags multi-million dollar deal from Dutch firm

Country's largest software firm Tata Consultancy Services on Tuesday said it has bagged a multi-million dollar IT infrastructure deal from Dutch technical consultancy firm Royal Haskoning.

The scope of the project covers end-to-end IT infrastructure services, which will be provided from TCS' global delivery centres in the Netherlands, Hungary and India, TCS said in a statement.

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

But it did not say anything about the exact amount involved in the deal. "Royal Haskoning is planning to grow, not only in our existing home countries, but also across emerging markets. We face interesting new challenges and consistent experience of service delivery is essential for us to be successful. TCS' delivery model will give our company the necessary support," Royal Haskoning Chief Information Officer Eric Overvoorde said.

Founded in the Netherlands in 1881, Royal Haskoning operates in 17 countries with 3,900 employees and 57 offices.
