Earlier this week, Tech Mahindra and British Telecom signed another strategic sourcing agreement valued at $350M over 5 years, under which BT will be provided with application maintenance and support for business critical BSS and OSS platforms.
As I wrote last month, Tech Mahindra and BT have a long history of strategic sourcing projects.
Strategic sourcing is the theme of a session being led by John Chang of PricewaterhouseCoopers on Monday June 16 at The Canadian Telecom Summit. In addition, CP Gurnani, the international operations president of Tech Mahindra, will be speaking in a session with Clive Selley, the CIO of BT Wholesale to end the day on June 17. Their session will look at how British Telecom has restructured to compete domestically and globally.
Which Canadian carriers will pick up on this trend?
