Australia and New Zealand Banking Group Limited (ANZ) was looking to expand its presence in Asia Pacific and needed an ICT provider to deliver end-to-end managed services. In 2009, ANZ signed a A$500 million agreement with Singtel to deliver these services, leveraging our international network reach and capabilities. In 2013, ANZ renewed the contract, valued at A$530 million, for another five years.
Singtel is transforming ANZ's infrastructure to support enhanced global communication, providing a single platform for the delivery of voice, data network services and services managed by a dedicated global enterprise management centre. The contract also includes the deployment of over 5,000 routers and switches, as well as 12,000 mobile services, among various other solutions.
"We are now entering our second services outsourcing partnership with Singtel. In this phase, Singtel is helping ANZ's progress in becoming a super-regional bank by enabling the connectivity of our business and the delivery of ICT services to our customers in Australia, Asia and the Pacific. This strategic partnership offers increased value in service quality, management control and increased capability to connect and support our accelerated business growth into the region."
