08 November 2007

The UK's HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) announced on Wednesday that the department has agreed to a restructuring of its Aspire IT outsourcing contract, in order to significantly reduce IT running costs by 2011.

Deepak Singh, HMRC Chief Information Officer stated that:

"I am delighted that we have been able to secure such a positive outcome that further strengthens our commitment to working with Aspire over the coming years."

He continued:

"The IT outsourcing relationship between HMRC and Aspire has gone from strength to strength over the past three years as we have seen significant improvements in service quality and delivery capability. The restructuring of the Aspire contract balances the need for HMRC to meet its commitments to cost reductions under the 2007 Comprehensive Spending Review without compromising our joint drive to become a world class IT function".

The contract is being extended by a further three years to 2017.
