Venezuela's Banco Fondo Comun (BFC) has inked a five year information technology services deal with IBM.
The agreement covers data centre outsourcing, technical support and database management operations, the infrastructure of IBM's Business Innovation Center, planning services and computer hardware relocation.
Juan Pedro Solórzano, VP, systems, BFC, says: "Having a reliable data centre infrastructure and an execution organisation that allows us to implement system operation methodologies, and being able to use metrics to measure our administration, was a fundamental task for the company's growth; and nowadays, IBM is satisfactorily rendering all those services."
