Infosys and Spark New Zealand have announced a strategic agreement that will support the transformation of Spark’s technology delivery model through digital innovation.
Leveraging Infosys Topaz, an AI-first set of services, solutions and platforms using GenAI technologies, and Infosys Cobalt, a set of services, solutions and platforms for enterprises to accelerate their cloud journey, the collaboration will contribute to reduced IT operating costs while accelerating Spark’s strategy of enabling digital and AI-driven customer experiences.
Under the collaboration, Infosys will provide its global DevOps and software engineering capabilities to help build, test, integrate and deliver Spark’s systems and applications.
Spark will still retain its IT assets and control its technology architecture strategy, product design and innovation roadmap, and business applications, supported by Infosys global reach and expertise.
Matt Bain, Data and Marketing Director, Spark, said: “Infosys has collaborated with Spark for over 16 years. We are now building on this relationship to allow our teams to focus on our technology strategy and the product roadmaps that will grow our competitive advantage.”
Raja Shah, EVP and Industry Head, Global Markets, Infosys, said: “We are thrilled to deepen our long-standing collaboration with Spark and contribute to its ambitious digital transformation journey. This collaboration underscores our commitment to driving impactful change and supporting Spark in achieving its strategic goals.”
As part of the agreement, Infosys will also enhance its local workforce to complement its global operations and ensure that critical local support and expertise is retained in New Zealand.
