Global technology company HCL Technologies (HCL) on Tuesday announced a
new large contract with New Zealand dairy co-operative Fonterra to
modernise and manage the entire technology infrastructure Fonterra
employees around the world use everyday.
The multi-year
partnership with HCL Technologies will consolidate Fonterra's technology
suppliers and bring together the Co-op's IT infrastructure services
under one umbrella.
The technology services provided by HCL will
enhance Fonterra's employee experience, to navigate through their
business operations, HCL said in a statement.
This partnership
will also extend HCL's New Zealand presence to three offices within the
country and will bring around 60 new jobs to the Waikato region, as the
local support services for Fonterra employees will be based at its
Hamilton Delivery centre.
The partnership will reinforce HCL's
focus in supporting the local New Zealand IT ecosystem by investing in
local skills and partnering with regional companies and tertiary
education groups to develop the local expertise to fill these roles over
the coming years.
