Infosys, a prominent figure in digital services and consulting, has triumphantly concluded its technology landscape separation with the Australian express logistics company, Team Global Express. The program, which utilized Infosys Cobalt’s blueprints and tools, marks a significant milestone in their strategic partnership, enhancing hybrid cloud-powered innovations.

This extensive project involved the migration of over 300 applications to a new greenfield technology environment, ensuring zero business disruption for more than 4,000 users across over 100 sites. The migrated applications now reside in a leading sustainable and energy-efficient data center and public cloud, reflecting a strong commitment to modernizing the technology landscape and adopting a cloud-first strategy. The transition has not only modernized Team Global Express’s infrastructure but has also reduced the technical debt from its parent organization.

A significant aspect of the program was its focus on minimizing operational impact, which was achieved by embedding a cloud-first approach into the core business strategy. This strategic move led to 70% of the applications being cloud-based, which supports a secure, agile foundation for ongoing digital transformations and reduces overall risk by enhancing infrastructure and security posture. The successful migration has also significantly improved operational productivity and employee experience by minimizing disruptions.

The collaborative efforts between Infosys and Team Global Express have been recognized with the prestigious 2024 ISG Paragon Award ANZ in the gold category, showcasing the exceptional results of their teamwork.

Danny Gravell, CIO of Team Global Express, expressed satisfaction with the partnership, stating: “Our partnership with Infosys enabled us to successfully set up an independent technology capability and transform our foundation technology platforms. We value Infosys’ thought leadership, collaborative approach, and experience in implementing infrastructure and cloud transformation programs as a true strategic partner. By using the ready-to-use templates from Infosys Cobalt, we could complete the transformation at speed with maximum efficiency. This program has enabled us to work towards providing the best possible experience for our customers.”

Karmesh Vaswani, Executive Vice President & Global Head of Consumer, Retail & Logistics at Infosys, also highlighted the program’s strategic benefits: “The separation program for Team Global Express presented a unique opportunity to achieve significant value. This complex program challenged us to not only accomplish the separation on-time and without business disruption, but also seamlessly establish a modern, secure and scalable digital foundation to accelerate their future growth. Leveraging our proven Infosys Cobalt cloud ecosystem and through a collaborative partnership with Team Global Express, we successfully navigated the complexities of this program, achieving an outcome that ranks among our most impactful engagements in the Australia and New Zealand region.”

This program exemplifies how strategic partnerships and innovative cloud solutions can substantially enhance business operations and customer service in the logistics sector, setting a benchmark for industry best practices.
