Shares of Tata Consultancy Services<\/a> (TCS) climbed as much as 6% on Monday, July 13, after the IT major announced an expansion of its long-standing partnership with global engineering company ABB.<\/p>\n

The stock also received support after Kotak Institutional Equities added it to its model portfolio<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n\"\"
Under a multi-million dollar, multi-year agreement, TCS will take on a broader role in managing ABB’s global network operations. The engagement builds on a relationship spanning more than two decades and marks a shift from infrastructure and application management to delivering an integrated network-as-a-service model.<\/p>\n

As part of the engagement, TCS will support ABB’s Future Network Model programme, an initiative aimed at modernising and standardising the company’s global network infrastructure.<\/p>\n

The IT services firm will design, integrate and operate ABB’s worldwide network ecosystem using AI-enabled capabilities while managing a multi-vendor environment.<\/p>\n

\nThe project is expected to improve network performance, strengthen cybersecurity and compliance, enhance user experience, and enable more efficient service delivery across ABB’s global operations.<\/p>\n

The transformation will replace fragmented network systems with a centrally managed architecture featuring a global network operations centre, service integration and management (SIAM), advanced security capabilities, and modernised LAN, WAN and software-defined WAN (SD-WAN) infrastructure.<\/p>\n

TCS will also provide end-to-end monitoring and orchestration to ensure seamless network operations.<\/p>\n

ABB Group CIO Alec Joannou said the programme will strengthen the digital backbone of the company’s global operations and support its long-term transformation strategy. TCS Manufacturing President Anupam Singhal said the partnership reflects the company’s “infrastructure to intelligence” approach, with AI-driven network operations helping build a more resilient, secure and intelligent digital ecosystem.<\/p>\n

The two companies have collaborated for over 20 years on several transformation initiatives, including ERP consolidation onto a unified SAP platform and cloud modernisation programmes.<\/p>\n

Separately, Kotak Institutional Equities has included TCS in its latest model portfolio with a 150 basis-point weight.<\/p>\n

The brokerage clarified that the move should not be viewed as a bullish call on the broader IT sector, where it continues to maintain an ‘underweight’ stance. Instead, it said the addition reflects its discomfort with a significant underweight position in the sector and TCS’ attractive valuation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Shares of Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) climbed as much as 6% on Monday, July 13, after the IT…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":102535,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[130],"tags":[232,50482,2252,3186,38213,7710,47445,50484,50483,50486,19408,20728,50485,7771,7708],"class_list":["post-102534","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-abb","tag-abb","tag-abb-partnership","tag-ai","tag-digital-transformation","tag-indian-it-sector","tag-it-stocks","tag-kotak-institutional-equities","tag-model-portfolio","tag-network-as-a-service","tag-network-transformation","tag-sd-wan","tag-tata-consultancy-services","tag-tata-group","tag-tcs","tag-tcs-share-price"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@ch\/116911547851238545","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/102534","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=102534"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/102534\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/102535"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=102534"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=102534"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ch\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=102534"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
