Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) has partnered with Maurices, a women’s fashion-apparel retail chain in the US and Canada, to help create a new flexible and scalable IT landscape for the latter. TCS is an IT services, consulting, and business solutions organisation that has been partnering with many of the leading businesses in their transformation journeys.

Following its journey as a standalone organisation, Maurices selected TCS as its digital transformation partner to help build its Greenfield IT ecosystem that will optimise more than 200 existing applications and software components in the next 17 months of their transformational journey. TCS will help Maurices strategise, create, and operationalise the new scalable, secure and future-proof architecture for the underlying IT infrastructure, security layer, and a new application stack, as well as remediate its technical debt. Leveraging TCS’ Machine First Delivery Model, powered by Ignio, its cognitive automation software, Maurices’ technology transformation will drive synergy across the enterprise, integrating business, operations, and IT teams without disruption to existing services, according to TCS.

In addition, TCS will help Maurices build a brand-new data analytics platform with extensive reporting features. The project will also involve a refreshed, upgraded e-commerce platform that will facilitate quicker business decisions and faster go-to-market responses to industry or fashion trends.

“We are creating a Greenfield IT and Infrastructure that will lay the foundation for the growth of Maurices’ business and operations. TCS being the industry leader has been chosen as our SI partner to implement the Project Split Rock, the initiative to stand-up the IT Ecosystem. We look forward to leverage TCS’ partnership skills, tools, processes, practices, and thought leadership to ensure the success of Project Split Rock,” Fred Argir, chief information officer and chief digital officer, Maurices.

“We are delighted to partner with Maurices as they embark on their IT ecosystem transformation. The new resilient, agile, and scalable platform, powered by MFDM and Ignio, will help them accelerate innovation, improve customer experience, build competitive differentiation, and fuel future growth. We look forward to building a long-term, trusted relationship with Maurices,” PC Thomas, head of retail, North America – S&W, TCS said.

TCS is utilising its pioneering secure borderless workspaces, a transformative operating model that allows organisations to fully and seamlessly transition to virtual workspaces, to enable a remote program kick-off from multiple locations.
