HP TO INVEST US$1 BLN TO TRANSFORM ENTERPRISE SERVICES BUSINESS
By M. Saraswathi
KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 21 (Bernama) -- Hewlett Packard will invest US$1 billion
(about RM3.1 billion) to transform its enterprise services business or
end-to-end information technology services to better serve its customers, its
senior vice president Pete Karolczak said.
During this multi-year transformation and investment, HP plans to
consolidate Enterprise Services' commercial data centers, management platforms,
and networks tools.
It will also enhance applications to create a more scalable modernised
and automated IT infrastructure that will enable clients to respond to rapidly
changing business conditions, he told Bernama Saturday.
"HP will leverage experience from its internal IT transformation, helping
clients modernise and migrate their applications to these next generation
infrastructure platforms," said Karolczak, who is also the general manager for
Infrastructure Technology Outsourcing (ITO) within HP Enterprise Services.
In turn, customers will enjoy lower cost, greater flexibility and
responsiveness in enterprise services delivery, he said.
He said part of the US$1 billion will also go towards retiring legacy assets
and building new, modernized facilities.
"The goal is to move customers from spending investment on maintenance into
state-of-the-art, highly-secure, highly-dense, green, sustainable infrastructure
built on HP's converged infrastructure suite of products and services."
This applies to all regions, including Asia Pacific & Japan, he said.
HP also plans to reinvest for further growth in private cloud
infrastructures, application transformation services, and desktop technology
delivered as a service, said Karolczak.
The investment will also strengthen HP's trusted Best Shore delivery model
by establishing a core number of global delivery hubs that form a highly
scalable backbone for Best Shore, providing the first best-in-class, balanced
global delivery model in the industry.
"Our Malaysia centre will serve as one of these Best Shore hubs, leveraging
HP hardware, software and technology expertise to lower costs, improve quality
and enable growth," he said.
Malaysia, he said offers the expert workforce, languages, skills,
capabilities and industry expertise to meet our clients' business requirements
and quality expectations in Asia as well as across the globe.
