The three year contract will be managed and delivered out of ASG's Northern Region operation based in Sydney.
Under the terms of the agreement, ASG will provide Qantas with Oracle technical development and environment management services to support the airlines' eQ project - an e-business initiative aimed at reducing the complexity of older systems and infrastructure to drive savings within Qantas.
ASG Chief Executive Officer Geoff Lewis said: "Along with our recent $88 million contract for the WA Government's Office of Shared Services, this contract with Qantas confirms ASG's ability to deliver large scale projects and managed services in the emerging Shared Services market, through our strong Oracle implementation and application managed services capability," said Mr Lewis .
The eQ initiative, launched in 2002, is focused on upgrading systems in Qantas' payroll and financial systems, procurement and inventory management systems among other areas. ASG will be providing systems integration and management services for the financial systems component of the initiative.
