HP Opens Global Applications Services Centre in Christchurch

Government apps centre also in the pipeline for Wellington as company increases its focus on “best-shoring” to meet client needs...

 

August 24, 2009 – HP has announced the opening of a services centre in Christchurch aimed at helping clients cost-effectively develop and manage their applications to achieve their business goals.

The Christchurch centre, part of HP’s applications services “Best Shore” delivery network, is designed to leverage the benefit of global delivery and reduce its associated risk.

The Best Shore network focuses on providing the skills and expertise clients need from locations around the world, using consistent business and technical processes.

HP says Christchurch is increasingly becoming a technology hub with a quality technology education sector and highly-skilled labour market.

The centre – based out of HP’s Addington facility – is currently recruiting staff and HP says it is expected to create a significant number of new jobs in Christchurch.

The HP Christchurch centre offers applications development, modernisation and management services focused on Java/J2EE, Microsoft .NET, testing and legacy systems.

HP says the centre is part of a broader plan to expand the company’s applications services in New Zealand – it is also in the process of establishing a specialist Government Applications Centre in Wellington, focused on working with HP’s public sector clients, particularly in the areas of transformation and modernisation.

The Christchurch centre joins HP delivery centres across China, India, Philippines, Egypt, Poland, Slovakia, Argentina, Brazil and Costa Rica.
