Schott Chooses HP for Technology Infrastructure Management Services to Support Manufacturer’s Global Growth

Hewlett-Packard Germany GmbH has announced that SCHOTT AG, a multinational company that develops and produces specialty glass and other materials, has renewed its outsourcing services agreement with HP for an additional five years.

With the new agreement, HP will continue delivering Utility Services to enable SCHOTT to maintain its global growth in a cost efficient way. HP has provided technology services for SCHOTT since 2004.

“To achieve our growth goals, it is critical to have processes and technology infrastructure in place to support our expansion into new countries and regions,” said Andreas Beeres, vice president corporate information technology for SCHOTT. “In addition to our long-standing relationship, HP’s global reach as well as the team’s deep technology and manufacturing industry understanding will help us create a ‘one-IT’ technology strategy within SCHOTT.”

HP will continue to manage and operate SCHOTT’s technology infrastructure in Germany, Austria and Switzerland and, with the new agreement, expand service delivery to support part of its worldwide operations.
