ANZ selects Capgemini



ANZ has selected technology consulting and outsourcing specialist Capgemini Australia to carry out its key software testing and environment management services.
The strategic agreement, announced by Capgemini last week, is still subject to final contract negotiations and regulatory approvals and will be executed over five years.
The company said it would leverage Capgemini's experienced local Australian and India teams together with its global capabilities.
Capgemini won the contract after a rigorous evaluation and due diligence process by ANZ.
As part of the agreement, ANZ's 360-strong IT Test Services team in Melbourne and Bangalore will transfer to Capgemini, which will consolidate all software testing into one team, including testing services provided by over 40 different suppliers.
