CSAM Becomes CSC Subsidiary
Austin, Texas-based CSC announced last week that it has acquired Computer Systems Advisers (M) Sdn Bhd (CSAM), a Malayasian information technology service provider.
Based in Selangor, Malaysia, CSAM provides end-to-end, integrated IT solutions and services to the country's commercial and government sectors. It will serve as one of CSC's regional headquarters for functions such as service desk support and procurement.
In a press release, CSC chairman, president and CEO Michael W. Laphen said that the acquisition of CSAM represented "a significant step forward" in the company's growth in Malayasia and Asia. "It also strengthens our global footprint -- a key goal of our multi-year strategic plan aimed at increasing growth and profitability and improving customer service," Laphen said in a statement.
