CSC signs agreement to resell Microsoft business productivity online suite

Adds Microsoft online services to its cloud services portfolio

CSC has entered into an agreement to resell the Microsoft business productivity online suite, part of Microsoft online services. The agreement is expected to allow customers to reduce costs of managing and maintaining business systems and give them access to Microsoft exchange online, Microsoft sharepoint online, Microsoft office communications online and Microsoft office live meeting.

The company said that it will provide enterprise clients with a choice of private cloud customer-managed and public cloud services combined with Microsoft online services. Working together, the companies expect to migrate users to the Business Productivity Online Suite.

The company plans to integrate Microsoft Online Services into its Trusted Cloud Services portfolio, which includes Cloud Orchestration Services, Trusted Cloud Services and consulting capabilities.

Ron Markezich, corporate vice president of Microsoft Online, said: Customers will benefit from this agreement by receiving cloud services that will simplify IT management and lower operational costs. CSC has been in the business of managed services for 50 years and brings its global expertise in security and regulatory compliance knowledge, while Microsoft brings its software-plus-services innovation, engineering capabilities and the most widely used productivity solutions in world.

David Booth, president of global sales and marketing at CSC's, said: This agreement is the first of several strategic initiatives that CSC will bring to market with Microsoft. The agility and collaboration demonstrated by both companies to reach this agreement highlights the speed at which we can execute our go-to-market strategy and meet client demand.
