Hyderabad: Satyam Computer Services, Ltd. has announced it has signed a multi-million-dollar seven-year contract with Australia's leading airline Qantas. The agreement covers application development and maintenance services for over 150 applications across a wide portfolio of technologies, said a company statement here. This follows the Oracle e-Business suite contract announced in August between Qantas and Satyam for the implemented elements of Qantas' eBusiness systems. The transition of the IT support and service delivery of these applications to Satyam is already underway. Thursday's announcement follows an extensive, 12-month review by Qantas of its information technology applications development, support and maintenance functions, said the statement. "We are very proud to partner with Qantas as one of their global service providers and we look forward to leveraging our global expertise towards achieving Qantas goals and objectives," said Satyam CEO Rama Raju. Over 1,000 associates of Satyam are serving Australia in providing similar application development activities to global majors.
