HCL Technologies has partnered with Finnish telecommunications company Nokia to modernise its IT infrastructure and applications landscape.

Under this five-year deal, HCL will transition services from four incumbent vendors to establish an integrated IT services delivery and design framework. It will also implement a transformation roadmap. The deal is intended to help Nokia drive operational efficiencies in line with previously announced targets, according to a press release.

HCL will leverage its next-gen technology services portfolio to provide Nokia with services around key transformational areas such as cloud orchestration, digital platforms, big data analytics, cyber security, autonomics and modern collaborative workplaces.

These solutions will help HCL meet the growing needs of a rapidly changing customer base and allow them to experience it better through digitalisation, automation and modernisation of key IT systems and processes.

Joerg Erlemeier, Nokia Chief Operating Officer, said, “This is an important development for Nokia and takes our digital transformation efforts to a new level.” It will enhance Nokia’s IT and operational efficiencies internally and enable the company to further elevate service delivery to our customers.

“This expansion of the HCL-Nokia relationship to include IT services is yet another testament to the alignment of our Mode 1-2-3 services with our customers’ strategic imperatives and our impressive track record to deliver transformational services at scale” said C Vijayakumar, President and Chief Executive Officer, HCL Technologies.
