TCS wins multi-year deal to modernise ABB’s network systems
India’s Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) said it has won a new multi-year, “multi-million” deal from automation giant ABB to modernise its network operations.
As part of this deal, TCS will deliver end-to-end global network operations through an integrated network-as-a-service model for ABB, thereby improving user experience, enhancing operational efficiency, and strengthening security and compliance.
The Tata Group’s IT firm will design, integrate, and run ABB’s global network ecosystem as a secure, modern, and AI-driven service. It will also orchestrate ABB’s multi-vendor environment to ensure seamless operations.
The deal will see the deployment of a service-driven architecture, which will centralise the control framework combining service integration and management (SIAM), a global network operations center, advanced security capabilities to safeguard infrastructure, and modernise network systems.
TCS will further enable end-to-end monitoring and orchestration.
“As our business evolves, it is critical to have an ecosystem that is resilient, secure, and aligned with long-term transformation goals,” said Alec Joannou, group CIO, ABB. Our association with TCS reflects a shared focus on delivery excellence, continuous enhancement, and building capabilities that can support our strategic priorities,” Joannou added.
“Through this engagement, we will enable network systems that can sense, adapt, and improve continuously, while strengthening reliability, security, user experience, and scale as ABB continues to advance as a future-ready enterprise,” said Anupam Singhal, president (manufacturing), TCS.
