Agreement Extends 17-Year Business Relationship

FALLS CHURCH, Va., Nov. 22 – CSC (NYSE: CSC) announced today that it has signed a new information technology (IT) outsourcing agreement with global defense and security company, BAE Systems. The five-year contract replaces the existing agreement that was due to expire in April 2012. The estimated contract value is up to $160 million per year. The agreement was signed during the third quarter of CSC fiscal year 2012.

Under the new agreement, CSC will deliver a full range of IT services, including service desk, collaborative services, end user compute, mainframe, physical/virtual servers, storage and networking, service request fulfilment and project services and application maintenance and support.

“Signing this new agreement with CSC demonstrates the success of our long-standing business partnership,” said Dean McCumiskey, BAE Systems global chief information officer. “As the defense industry continues to evolve, CSC’s expertise and support in delivering highly competitive, value for money services across our business in support of our strategic and operational objectives will be invaluable.”

CSC’s relationship with BAE Systems began in April 1994 when the companies signed a 10-year IT outsourcing contract in the UK. At the time, the contract was one of the largest commercial IT outsourcing contracts ever awarded to a single supplier in Europe. The relationship between CSC and BAE Systems has matured, strengthened and expanded, supporting BAE Systems multiple mergers and acquisitions in both the UK and home countries.
