European Parliament signs €12m contract with Accenture
The European Parliament has signed a €12m (£10m) IT application services agreement with IT services company Accenture to develop and support a range of applications across the organisation.
The applications will sit across human resources, finance, logistics and administrative management.
The contract will last for four years and see Accenture "analyze, design, build, test and implement new applications as a managed service", according to Sean Shine, managing director of Accenture Health and Public Service Practice.
Accenture has never worked with the European Parliament in the past and was awarded the contract following a "competitive tender", according to an Accenture spokesperson.
Accenture is a global management consulting, technology services and outsourcing company with a staff of more than 223,000 people.
