History
Creation
DXC Technology was founded in 2017 when the Hewlett Packard Enterprise Company (HPE) spun off its Enterprise Services business and merged it with Computer Sciences Corporation (CSC).[3] At the time of its creation, DXC Technology had revenues of $25 billion, employed 170,000 people and operated in 70 countries.[4]
The spinoff from Hewlett Packard Enterprise did not include two parts of the Enterprise Services segment: the Mphasis Limited reporting unit and the Communications and Media Solutions product group.[3]
In India, the company started a three-year plan to reduce the number of offices in the country from 50 to 26, and reduce headcount by 5.9% (around 10,000) employees.[5] With about 43,000 employees (more than 1/3rd of its workforce) in India, the company is restructuring its workforce to meet its new revenue profile.[6]
In 2017, DXC split off its US public sector segment to create a new company, Perspecta Inc.[7]
Acquisitions
In 2017, the company completed its first acquisition, buying Tribridge, a provider of Microsoft Dynamics 365 solutions.[8]
In 2018, it announced several additional acquisitions, including Molina Medicaid Solutions (previously part of Molina Healthcare), Argodesign and two ServiceNow partners, BusinessNow and TESM.[9]
In January 2019, DXC Technology acquired Luxoft . According to the information from SEC database, DXC Technology now owns 83% of Luxoft shares. The eventual close of the deal was in June 2019.[10]
Programs and sponsorships
Dandelion Program
Piloted in Adelaide, Australia, in 2014; the DXC Dandelion Program has grown to over 100 employees in Australia,[11] working with more than 240 organizations in 71 countries to acquire sustainable employment for individuals with autism.[12]
Sport
The company sponsors Team Penske[13] with 2016 Series Champion and 2019 Indianapolis 500 winner Simon Pagenaud, and in 2018 became title sponsor of IndyCar Series race DXC Technology 600.[14] DXC is also a partner of Australian Rugby Union team Brumbies.[15]
