Tata Consultancy Services has announced the signing of a multi- year, multi- million euro contract with Europcar, a car rental company in Europe. After a rigorous evaluation process, Europcar Information Services (EIS), the company’s IT subsidiary, selected TCS to manage strategic IT Services development for its French operations.

“The objective of the partnership is to continue to improve our structured and standardized development process across Europcar. We were looking for a partner with the highest standard in quality; demonstrated flexibility and one that could help us optimize both time-to-market and cost control. TCS scored high on all counts and its strong global delivery model and industry knowledge of our field was key criteria in our selecting them for this project.
