We believe TCS is the right partner to deliver such a complex program, given their proven experience both within Xerox and across the industry.”
V Rajanna, president, technology, software and services, TCS, said, “Xerox and TCS have been on a collaboration and co-innovation journey for over two decades, which has grown from strength to strength transforming business functions from finance to HR along the way. We are now excited to partner with Xerox to support their Reinvention to create the foundation for long-term, sustainable growth…”
