India’s biggest IT services company Tata consultancy Services (TCS) said on March 21 that it has signed a multimillion-dollar strategic partnership to carry out the end-to-end IT transformation of Ramboll, a global architecture, engineering, and consultancy company headquartered in Denmark.

Over the next seven years, TCS will help and streamline Ramboll’s IT operating model to drive business growth and optimise the IT cost base, the company said in a statement.

TCS also stated that it will deliver services to manage Ramboll’s cloud and data centers, application development and maintenance, Cyber Security and Digital Workplace in attempt to reduce its climate footprint, and increase scalability. As a part of this strategic partnership, TCS will also induct more than 300 Ramboll IT employees in 12 countries.

Commenting on the partnership, Thomas Angelius, Senior Group Director, Chief Information Officer, Ramboll, said, “We are thrilled to have chosen TCS, a proven expert in large-scale complex digital transformations, for this global project. With TCS as our partner, we are confident in our ability to future-proof the business and continue to deliver the excellent services our customers expect.”
