CSC Signs $106 Million IT Outsourcing Agreement With Eclipse Aviation

Will Allow Company To Focus On Building Planes, IT Provider Says

CSC announced Tuesday it has signed a new information technology (IT) outsourcing contract with very light jet manufacturer Eclipse Aviation. The new agreement has a five-year base period and three one-year options, bringing the estimated total eight-year contract value to $106 million.

Under the new contract, CSC will manage Eclipse Aviation's applications development and maintenance, and IT infrastructure including, midrange computers and desktops, help desk operations, IT security, engineering computing, voice and video telecommunications, servers, and local- and wide-area networks. CSC will provide these services for Eclipse Aviation's operations globally.

"Our very deep A&D industry IT expertise and collaborative approach provides Eclipse with the opportunity to focus on their drive to bring very light jets to the market in an accelerated pace," said Mark Dieterle, vice president and Aerospace and Defense industry executive within CSC's Global Outsourcing Services organization.

"CSC is one of the world's largest IT outsourcing companies and it's the leader in the aerospace industry," said Ray Barratt, chief information officer of Eclipse Aviation. "Eclipse needed an IT company that is global and has a plethora of SAP resources to support our company growth and effective use of IT. CSC came out on top both from a technology and a partnering viewpoint."

CSC provides technology-enabled solutions and services through three primary lines of business. These include Business Solutions & Services, Global Outsourcing Services and the North American Public Sector.
