Country's largest software exporter TCS has been chosen by German aviation major Deutsche Lufthansa AG to set up a test factory to support its IT transformation initiative in a "multi-million dollar" deal.
TCS will provide testing services and help improve the quality of services of Lufthansa's technology operations, the Tata Group company said in a statement.
It will pioneer and manage the enterprise testing services by setting up a test factory model across Lufthansa to streamline and standardise their testing processes, reduce capital expenditure and implement next generation services.
"Simplification of processes and systems is crucial to meet the changing demands of customers in today's digital age", TCS Director for Central Europe, Sapthagiri Chapalapalli, said.
He said Lufthansa has been a client for TCS in the past as well and it has been investing significantly in expanding operations and talent base in Germany.
TCS serves 85 clients in Germany and Austria through its central European operations.
The company scrip was trading at Rs 2,407.10 a piece, up 1.34% on the BSE.
