Tata Consultancy Services has announced a multi-year partnership with British retail giant Asda to support its digital transformation and to implement a new organisation-wide IT operating model, following its divestiture from Walmart.
TCS will build a new digital core by implementing multiple cloud-based ERP platforms to streamline Asda’s supply chain forecasting, buying and merchandising processes, HR processes, warehouse management, and e-commerce processes. Additionally, TCS will use its Machine First Delivery Model to automate the retailer’s IT operations, providing a seamless experience for employees and customers, and improving operational resilience.
‘Have partnered with TCS because they bring experience in retail technology transformation and innovation. We look forward to working with them to accelerate our digital transformation journey and to unlock the potential of our business,’ Mohsin Issa, Chief Executive Officer, Asda said.
There are 632 Asda stores in the United Kingdom as of September 19, 2023. The country with the most number of Asda locations in the UK is England, with 514 stores, which is about 81 percent of all Asda stores in the country.
TCS has bagged multiple orders last month across sectors. On September 25, the company expanded its partnership with Standard Banks group for its custody and settlement operations. European Home Improvement company Kingfisher Plc also used TCS OmniStore, an AI powered unified commerce platform to drive its customer experiences.
TCS share is trading with a cut of nearly one percent in today’s trade, and is up more than seven percent in 2023 so far.
