Telstra has revealed the addition of almost one million new mobile services in the six months to December 2011, but Sensis revenues plummeted 24 percent in 12 months.
IT services provider Computer Sciences Corporation has extended its IT services contract with ASX listed steel manufacturer OneSteel Ltd in a deal worth US$37 million (A$50 million).
The contract will run over three years, with options for another two years.
CSC has provided IT ervices for OneSteel since 2001, when it was
established as a separate entity from the then Broken Hill Propriety
(BHP), now BHP Billiton, following the merger of BHP and Billiton.
OneSteel Ltd is now the largest manufacturer of steel long products and
is the leading metals distribution company in Australia.
Under the new contract, CSC will continue to provide a wide range of
IT-related services, including support and enhancement of a significant
portion of OneSteel’s critical production systems, which operate across
manufacturing facilities in Newcastle, Sydney, and in Whyalla, South
Australia.
“Our relationship with OneSteel continues to grow, and this extension
is a vote of confidence in the quality of services and results CSC has
been providing,” said Mike Shove, managing director of CSC’s Australian
operations. “It is also an acknowledgement of the depth of steel
industry expertise CSC has gained serving a diversified resources
client base.”
“With our IT services contract coming up for renewal, OneSteel embarked
on a detailed evaluation of possible outsourcing providers, and we are
pleased to say that CSC presented the best overall option for those
services being renewed,” said Michael Dines, OneSteel general manager
of eCommerce and Information Technology.
