CSC Dimensions: New Offering Blends Applications Experience, Industry Knowledge
Mary Jo Morris, president of CSC's Global Transformation Solutions, describes the offering. "CSC Dimensions combines the vertical industry expertise of our consulting professionals with our world-class application outsourcing and World Sourcing capabilities to create an end-to-end solution for results-driven transformation," she says. "In short, CSC Dimensions is designed to deliver business results and enable business change."
A holistic approach
CSC Dimensions is a framework of six services built upon CSC's proven ability to implement, support and transform enterprise applications. The solution draws from the collective strength of CSC's 35,000 application services professionals located at more than 50 development centers across the globe. Jason Smith, CSC's global service offering manager, says, "CSC Dimensions is a holistic, flexible approach that allows our customers to achieve value through applications services and by aligning IT and business strategy. This approach also lets our clients transform and optimize enterprise application portfolios through cost effective application development and management."

Smith emphasizes that the goal of CSC Dimensions is to go beyond IT and help CSC's clients link business strategy and technology implementation at the boardroom level. "The CSC Dimensions framework provides our clients with support for both their IT strategies and their boardroom strategies. At the boardroom level, you're not only talking about IT, you're also talking about issues such as business processes, how to reduce costs with labor arbitrage and how to gain competitive advantages."
Morris says the "outsource first" approach CSC Dimensions takes to enabling business transformation contrasts with the traditional approach of "transform first." She says, "The differentiator is the fact that we start at the core, by initially providing outsourcing services that help our clients reduce costs. Our clients can then immediately use the savings delivered through application outsourcing to fund their transformation efforts."
Smith says one of the essential attributes of the offering is its flexibility. "CSC Dimensions is not an all-or-nothing approach. It's a tailored solution for each client's specific needs. In every significant market and every major industry vertical, we have thousands of people who have done it before and we can apply that knowledge to any new circumstances as they come along."
"Application outsourcing has evolved and continues to evolve," says Smith. "CSC Dimensions addresses the business transformation phase of this evolution. It's about offering higher value services that are of strategic importance to our clients, not just about better, faster and cheaper."
