Driving major transformation and savings

Transforming across the Enterprise Technology Stack
We are proud of how we have improved and scaled global delivery and simplified our operations. Through these efforts, we have achieved $550 million in savings, without disruption.
DXC manages many of the largest mission critical enterprise applications in a complex IT environment encompassing:
Improving Delivery
Customers
We are making it easier for our customers to do business with us, simplifying processes and removing friction and cost.
We have improved the customer experience by focusing on providing stable, predictable operations with agility and velocity. Our seamless and silent-running technology services drive greater automation and flexibility into operations. We have reduced the number of “Priority One” critical operational incidents by 54% per quarter and have reduced the average time to recovery by 17%, minimizing customer impact.
We are introducing DXC Platform X™, an artificial intelligence platform for IT operations. Platform X is our proprietary data-driven intelligent automation platform that enables customers to detect and resolve issues quickly and automatically predict and prevent future problems before they happen.
Colleagues
We are giving our colleagues the right tools, technology and processes to deliver excellence for our customers. We have empowered our colleagues by leveraging collaboration, automation, robotics and complex services.
We have gone to a virtual-first environment, enabled by new technology tools and a next generation, highly secure network. This has allowed us to optimize our real estate footprint. Our internal processes and operations have also been simplified to unlock value and address overhead costs. This includes a number of one-touch tools to reduce the number of systems, such as payroll and enterprise resource planning.
Expanding Margins
In addition to driving down costs, we have increased operational efficiency and enhanced productivity by simplifying our customer delivery footprint and internal operations. We have done this by:
Optimize Costs
Adjusted EBIT Margin
We are scaling our delivery footprint and simplifying the organization. We delivered $550 million of cost savings and improved adjusted EBIT margin in each quarter.
DXC helps our customers run, modernize and continuously optimize their mission critical IT systems across the Enterprise Technology Stack. For a long time to come, IT will be hybrid — a combination of traditional and digital. Digital alone will not satisfy the business case, or the desire for speed, agility and lower costs that customers seek. Whether through on-premises infrastructure or a hybrid cloud model, customers partner with DXC to realize better performance, achieve more agility, optimize costs and enable a better overall user experience.
Bridging traditional IT and digital services is an opportunity for DXC. Customers are asking us to help strengthen and modernize their IT systems and build a bridge to digital. We are uniquely positioned to help our customers modernize their IT systems and move to a hybrid model in a secure manner:
- Our capabilities across the Enterprise Technology Stack mirror how our customers think about their business needs both now and for the future.
- We are one of the few IT services players with the scope, scale and relevance across the full Enterprise Technology Stack.
- We deliver traditional IT services, such as IT outsourcing and applications, and digital IT, such as cloud, security, analytics and engineering.

We are winning in the market with a book-to-bill ratio of over 1.0 for four straight quarters in FY21.

Sustainable Development Goals and DXC’s Achievements
Partnerships for a Better World
Bayernwerk AG
Shrinking the carbon footprint
Bayernwerk AG, which provides electricity, heating and water across southern Germany, has set high-priority targets around sustainability and environmental protection. To help meet these goals, DXC created a digital platform for Bayernwerk to launch energy-efficient products like the EnergyPortal, which makes data more accessible to administrators of the municipalities Bayernwerk serves. It also provides a single source for advanced analytics, which the utility’s customers can use to shrink their carbon footprint and meet their green energy goals.
DXC Dandelion Program
Boosting talent with a neurodiverse workforce
The DXC Dandelion Program helps organizations access the wealth of talent in the neurodiverse space, while providing opportunities for people on the autism spectrum to gain long-term viable employment. The program’s unique recruitment process is tailored to encourage individuals who have struggled in the past, and provides ongoing support throughout their placement.
