Computer Sciences Corporation is one of the world leaders in the information technology
(I/T) and professional services industry. Since it was founded in 1959, the Company
has helped clients use I/T more efficiently in order to improve their operations
and profitability, achieve business results and focus on core competencies.
CSC offers a broad array of services to clients in the global commercial and
government markets and specializes in the application of complex I/T to achieve
its customers' strategic objectives. Its service offerings include information
technology and business process outsourcing, and I/T and professional services.
Outsourcing involves operating all or a portion of a customer's technology
infrastructure, including systems analysis, applications development, network
operations, desktop computing and data center management. CSC also provides
business process outsourcing, managing key functions for clients, such as claims
processing, credit checking, logistics and customer call centers.
I/T and professional services include systems integration, consulting and other
professional services. Systems integration encompasses designing, developing,
implementing and integrating complete information systems. Consulting and professional
services includes advising clients on the strategic acquisition and utilization
of I/T and on business strategy, security, modeling, simulation, engineering,
operations, change management and business process reengineering. Also included
are a variety of specialized technical functions such as aviation services,
base and range operations and international peacekeeping and security support.
CSC also licenses sophisticated software systems for the financial services
and healthcare markets and provides a broad array of end-to-end e-business solutions
that meet the needs of large commercial and government clients. The Company
focuses on delivering results by linking business innovation skills with seasoned
delivery expertise to provide flexible and scalable solutions. To do so, CSC
draws on its vast experience in designing, building and maintaining large, complex,
mission-critical systems and applies this knowledge to today's business challenges.
CSC does not have exclusive agreements with hardware or software providers
and believes that this vendor neutrality enables it to better identify and manage
solutions specifically tailored to each client's needs.
Major Markets
CSC provides its services to clients in global commercial industries and to
the U.S. federal government.
The I/T and professional services markets in which CSC competes are not dominated
by a single company or a small number of companies. A substantial number of
companies offer services that overlap and are competitive with those offered
by the Company. Some of these are large industrial firms, including computer
manufacturers and major aerospace firms that may have greater financial resources
than CSC and, in some cases, may have greater capacity to perform services similar
to those provided by the Company.
