IBM on Friday announced it has inked a new agreement with the ABB Group, a global provider of automation technologies, to transform the company's Information Systems (IS) infrastructure across 17 countries in Europe, North America, and Asia Pacific.
"With the new agreement, ABB will realize considerable savings, while harmonizing and optimizing IS infrastructure," said Haider Rashid, ABB's global Chief Information Officer. "Our partnership with IBM allows us to implement new technologies and processes to build for continued globalization of our business. At the same time, we will be improving energy efficiency."
ABB said it expects immediate cost savings as a result of the new agreement, while it also puts ABB in a better position to utilize cloud computing down the line.
