AXA UK & Ireland, a part of French group AXA, has selected Cognizant as its technology partner in a bid to transform its technology ecosystem.
The insurer hopes to create an IT environment, which is data-rich, modern, digitally enabled, secure, and sustainable, with lower overall cost.
As part of the technology partnership, the IT company will provide multi-faceted managed services and cloud migration services to AXA UK & Ireland.
Cognizant’s integrated IT services for the insurer will cover areas including service desk support and maintenance, end-user computing, app development and maintenance, IT infrastructure management and cloud operations.
AXA UK & Ireland chief operating officer Shali Vasudeva said: “AXA UK & Ireland’s priority is providing customers with the choice and flexibility that meets their insurance needs. The foundation to deliver that is a modern, digital IT infrastructure that enables us to make data-driven business decisions.
“Cognizant’s track record, expertise and behaviours in helping organizations simplify delivery and manage IT environments were the primary factors in choosing them as a technology partner.”
