Global IT services company providing application modernization, cloud migration and outsourcing to large enterprises.
Global IT services company providing application modernization, cloud migration and outsourcing to large enterprises.
Paid under multi-year contracts to run customers' computer systems, so revenue is steady but shrinks when contracts end or are re-priced. It was created in 2017 by merging Computer Sciences Corporation with Hewlett Packard Enterprise's services arm, and much of the base is older infrastructure work it is trying to add cloud projects to.
Moat: narrow (switching costs, installed base). Multi-year outsourcing contracts running customers' core systems are costly and risky to switch away from.
Headquarters: Ashburn, Virginia, US · Founded: 2017 · Employees: 115,000
