Since its inception in 1994, ASSA ABLOY has grown from a regional company into an international group with about 44,000 employees, operations in more than 70 countries and sales close to SEK 57 billion. ASSA ABLOY has expanded globally through a combination of organic growth and acquisitions. The goal of this IT engagement is to improve the efficiency of the company’s data center services by moving them into Wipro’s BoundaryLess Data Center (BLDC) offering and establishing a global delivery model through Wipro’s ServiceNXT, the company's integrated Managed Services framework.
Jens Nielsen, CIO, ASSA ABLOY Group said: “This engagement is strategic to our business continuity operations and we believe that Wipro is the best partner for us. With our data center infrastructure supported by Wipro, we can drive added efficiencies, and most importantly, bring about joint innovations to serve our customers better.”
Carl-Henrik Hallstr?m, Head of Nordic Region, Wipro Limitedadded: "In order to keep pace with rapid globalisation, rising customer expectations and emerging technologies, enterprises must reinvent their traditional IT infrastructure and data center service capabilities. We are confident that Wipro's BoundaryLess Data Center offering will enable ASSA ABLOY optimize, automate and manage its data centers in an agile manner. Furthermore, this engagement reiterates our continued focus and investments in the Nordic region.”
