TDC, the largest telecommunications company in Denmark, has signed a $413 million outsourcing contract with the Computer Sciences Corporation (CSC). The seven year contract expands upon existing agreements signed in 2003 and another seven year $330 million deal signed in 2007.

The deal significantly extends CSC’s application support for TDC including the management of TDC’s legacy application portfolio, provision of application development and maintenance services for more than 500 applications and support for approximately 17,000 users. CSC will also appropriate around 220 TDC employees to take place in June.

Jørgen Jakobsen, TDC Chief Information Officer said: "We already have an excellent relationship with CSC in several areas and are pleased to expand it further to include the management of our legacy application portfolio. The new agreement will enable us to further modernise and consolidate our applications so they deliver the capabilities our business requires.”
