Iindian software giant Satyam Computer Services has won a major Oracle deal with Qantas and is also neck-and-neck with competitor Tata Consultancy Services to win a multi-million application services contract with the airline.
Satyam has won an Oracle eBusiness suite application support and maintenance deal that will commence in August.
Yesterday's meeting of the application services review steering committee decided to begin due diligence and contract negotiations on the applications deal with Tata and Satyam, although a final decision on whether to go ahead with the outsourcing will not be taken until October.
Under pressure from rising fuel prices, Qantas has been pushing ahead with offshoring on a number of fronts, shifting some heavy maintenance checks for its Boeing 747 aircraft overseas.
