Posten Norge, a Nordic postal and logistics group has selected leading Indian IT software services company Infosys as a strategic partner to digitally transform its IT Service Management function. Through this collaboration, Infosys will establish an IT Service Desk and adapt Posten Norge’s IT processes for new-age software delivery methods.

The transformation will also involve the implementation of ServiceNow, an IT Service Management platform. Infosys will accelerate the ServiceNow implementation and drive ongoing strategic value from the investments by leveraging Enterprise Service Management Cafe, an AI-powered ready-to- deploy solution, part of Infosys Cobalt suite.
