Union Insurance Selects DXC Technology to Accelerate Digital Transformation

 DXC Technology (NYSE: DXC), the world’s leading independent, end-to-end IT services company, today announced that it has been selected by Union Insurance, a leading provider of customer-focused insurance products to individuals and corporations in the Middle East, to migrate its complete IT infrastructure and workloads to Amazon Web Services (AWS).

DXC will work with Union Insurance to migrate its data center infrastructure and core business applications to AWS. This will provide Union Insurance with greater flexibility to meet seasonal customer demands, a scalable back-end infrastructure and better return on investment (ROI), thereby increasing overall IT effectiveness and enhancing customer experience. The migration will comprise building and maintaining its complete cloud infrastructure, inclusive of license consolidation, application performance, business availability and continuity, and security.

This implementation is an extension of the current agreement to support Union Insurance in their digital transformation journey.

“The shift toward digital is taking place in the insurance industry and across the Middle East region, and we are witnessing a rapid uptake of digital technologies as organizations move to reinvent themselves digitally,” said Mark Diekmann, general manager and offering leader, Cloud, Platforms and ITO, DXC Technology Asia, Middle East and Africa. “As Union Insurance embarks on its own digital transformation journey, we are excited to extend our partnership to help them complete a smooth and successful migration to AWS Cloud.”

As we pave the way for a digital future at UIC, we look to DXC’s expertise in cloud and technology services to guide us through this transformation,” said Abdul Muttaleb M.
