Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) on Monday announced that it has been selected as a strategic partner by Europ Assistance, a global assistance and travel insurance company, to help reimagine its global IT operating model for enhanced resilience, scalability and user experience.
Supporting nearly 300 million customers in over 200 countries and territories with travel, mobility, home and family, health, and concierge services, Europ Assistance was looking for a global transformation partner to align its IT ecosystem to its mission of providing services ‘Anytime, Anywhere’ and support its growth. As the strategic partner, TCS will step up its delivery centers in Europe and across geographies to provide end-to-end enterprise IT application services to Europ Assistance.
