Cognizant entered into a five-year agreement to manage ERIKS' operational IT services and to support a program to modernise ERIKS' technology stack so ERIKS could focus on its strategic IT objectives.

The companies described plans for the arrangement to support ERIKS' focus on innovation, future growth and expansion across Europe and beyond.

Under the contract, Cognizant managed all of ERIKS' operational IT services, supported transformation and modernisation of ERIKS' technology stack and provided expedited access to advanced technical expertise, including support for emerging technologies such as Generative AI (GenAI).

“ERIKS and Cognizant have built a strong and collaborative relationship since 2017,” said Saket Gulati, Senior Vice President and Head of Northern Europe at Cognizant. “This new agreement elevates our partnership to a truly strategic level. Being selected as a trusted partner for the next five years is a testament to the confidence ERIKS places in our capabilities, and it recognises the excellent work and close cooperation our teams have delivered over the past years.”

The companies described plans for the multi-year partnership to increase operational efficiency, improve digital capabilities and support ERIKS' ambitions to expand its business across Europe and beyond.
