Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) has been selected as a strategic partner by international wholesaler METRO AG, to support the next phase of its international strategy by harmonising its application landscape, simplifying operations, and enabling scalable growth. As part of this partnership, TCS will help METRO transition from a highly localised, country-specific IT application landscape to a centralised technology environment by leveraging AI-based solutions. This transformation is designed to reduce complexity, streamline operations, and enable greater agility across the company’s major markets in Europe and Asia.
METRO has built a strong international footprint with empowered local operations and is now evolving towards a more globally aligned and centrally driven technology landscape to support greater scale, consistency, and innovation. Through this engagement, TCS will help METRO in consolidating applications and technology operations across key markets, enabling the organisation to free up resources and focus more effectively on customer growth, innovation, and value creation.
The partnership goes beyond technology harmonization and is a key component of METRO’s broader business evolution. It additionally involves significant change management efforts to support the shift towards a more unified operating approach across the organisation.
Tata Consultancy Services is an IT services, consulting and business solutions organization that has been partnering with many of the world’s largest businesses. TCS offers a consulting-led, cognitive powered, integrated portfolio of IT, business & technology services, and engineering.
