Airbus has agreed a three-year outsourcing deal with IT services supplier Logica, combining local and offshore resources.
The aircraft maker will use Logica to manage applications for document management, archiving, groupware and knowledge management. The vendor will also work on development and improvements to the firm’s software.
The contract will see service delivered from sites in Hamburg and Toulouse, local to Airbus’ European operations, supported by a centre in Chennai, India, to save costs.
“Our customers will benefit from local teams on site, and from international teams that have in-depth technical expertise and experience delivering large-scale outsourcing projects,” said Torsten Strass, chief executive of Logica in Germany.
Airbus did not provide further comment on the deal.
