TCS, Infosys and Wipro have bagged a sizable chunk of a five-year outsourcing deal from British oil giant BP. Spokespersons of all three companies did not disclose the size. They did not reveal their independent size of the contract either. The multi-crore rupee contract is a big boost for the domestic outsourcing majors, currently under pricing and margin pressure in the wake of global downturn.
Global IT majors IBM and Accenture have also snapped a part of the deal. The three companies announced separately that they have entered into an outsourcing deal with BP. Infosys said it will operate BP's business systems. Wipro said it will provide IT Application Development and Application Maintenance (ADAM) services for BP's Fuels Value Chain and corporate business globally.
TCS said it has been selected for engagements in refining, manufacturing and corporate IT with opportunities across fuels value chain including upstream and trading.As part of the deal, IBM will manage and run the oil giant's enterprise applications and integrated service desk responsibilities, IBM said.
