Drool, Britannia? Is the UK Failing the Cloud?
By Roger Strukhoff
Richard Davies wrote: The UK has a good crop of technology pioneers in cloud computing - for example ElasticHosts, FlexiScale, Flexiant, OnApp - and also some strong government initiatives such as G-Cloud. We will have to see whether this kind of technical leadership converts into swift mass-market adoption or not.

CSC Awarded 2010 SAP® Pinnacle Awards for Customer Satisfaction and Sustainability

By: Business Wire
May. 19, 2010 01:19 PM

CSC (NYSE: CSC) today announced that it has been awarded two 2010 SAP® Pinnacle Awards in the areas of customer satisfaction and sustainability. SAP Pinnacle Awards are granted to leading SAP partners that have excelled in enhancing the customer experience, addressing critical issues such as accelerating co-innovation and improving return on investment. Winners were selected based on more than 230 nominations in 27 categories received from partners and SAP employees. CSC received the awards at a special awards ceremony held on the eve of SAPPHIRE® NOW, SAP’s international customer conference being held in Orlando, Fla. May 16 – 19.

“At CSC we expect our customers to expect more, and after being nominated for SAP Pinnacle Awards for customer satisfaction three years running, we are thrilled that our dedication to client service was deemed worthy of such a sought-after recognition in 2010,” said David Parsons, vice president, CSC Global Alliances and Corporate Marketing.

“CSC also continues to work with industry leaders like SAP to help clients realize the benefits of sustainability, and we’re proud to take home a 2010 Pinnacle Award in the category ‘Sustainability Partner of the Year’ for our efforts and expertise in such a crucial part of our business,” said Jim Cook, president, CSC Business Solutions and Services Sector. “CSC is enabling customers to leverage sustainable practices and open up new revenue streams that not only make a positive impact on the environment, but also on the bottom line.”

CSC’s mission demands an absolute commitment to excellence and the primary component of this business objective is to work with partners like SAP AG to deliver the highest levels of client satisfaction. For more than 50 years, CSC has maintained a robust presence worldwide with culturally diverse professionals that operate out of more than 90 countries to gain an intimate understanding of the client’s enterprise.

A holistic Sustainability program enables companies to drive new revenue through brand differentiation, reduce cost through carbon and energy reduction initiatives, respond to new consumer and investor mandates and comply with growing regulatory requirements. As these areas of the business increasingly become top of mind for the enterprise, CSC is working with partners and clients to transform sustainability business and enable IT processes, including new Managed Services, leveraging SAP solutions. CSC has deployed two SAP-based solutions, the SAP Carbon Impact on-demand solution and the SAP Environment, Health and Safety Management (SAP EHS Management) application, to help clients manage performance, meet business objectives, maintain environmental regulatory compliance, and reduce carbon footprints.

“The SAP ecosystem, through our partners and communities, continuously drives growth and success for our joint customers,” said S. Singh Mecker, senior vice president and head, Global Ecosystem and Partner Group, SAP. “Our partners play a vital role in SAP’s innovation efforts and in helping customers meet their most essential business challenges. We applaud CSC on its commitment and dedication to the SAP partnership. They have excelled in co-innovating with SAP to deliver unparalleled value and mutual business success to our joint customers.”
