New CSC Program Keeps IT Close To Home

Computer Sciences Corp. (VARBusiness 500 rank 4) has launched a program that provides customers an alternative to offshore IT services. The El Segundo, Calif.-based solution provider launched the initiative, dubbed OnShore Delivery, today, but will officially open the center during the second quarter of 2008. It will expand CSC's presence in Blythwood, S.C.

According to the $14.6 billion VAR, OnShore Delivery will add 300 employees to CSC's ranks during the next year and a half. It will interact with other CSC World Sourcing sites worldwide. It will offer a broad range of IT services to its aerospace, defense and North American public sector clients.

The strategy is aimed at expanding CSC's capabilities in South Carolina and at offering clients the ability to keep project work stateside.

"Many of our aerospace, defense and public sector clients now seek options to keep work closer to home, avoiding translation, time zone and other issues," Mary Jo Morris, president of CSC's World Sourcing Services organization said in a statement.

Such clients also often have restrictions such as the International Traffic in Arms (ITAR) regulations that prevent them from sending work offshore.

ITAR is a set of U.S. government regulations that control the export and import of defense-related articles and services on the United States Munitions List.
