Germany’s MLP Finanzdienstleistungen AG Signs New Outsourcing Agreement with HP.


 Financial services firm continues migration to utility-based computing model to fuel efficiencies, innovation.

BÖBLINGEN, Germany, July 19, 2012


Hewlett-Packard GmbH today announced that MLP Finanzdienstleistungen AG, a Germany-based independent financial services and wealth management consulting company, has signed an agreement for HP to continue managing MLP’s information technology and applications environments.

Under the contract, which extends the companies’ relationship for 10 years, HP will begin providing utility-based business process outsourcing services to fuel efficiencies and innovation for MLP.

HP also will combine MLP’s IT infrastructure with its applications environment to build a comprehensive, utility-based service model. This gives MLP the flexibility to rapidly scale IT services up and down to meet changing business needs.

“Today’s consumer requires a variety of options to fulfill increasingly complex financial services needs,” said Reinhard Loose, chief financial officer, MLP Finanzdienstleistungen AG. “As a long-term strategic ally, HP participates in initiatives that support existing and future innovations, allowing us to focus on delivering top-quality services and products to our customers while realizing a high efficiency.”

HP will continue providing a full scope of HP Infrastructure Technology Outsourcing Services. HP Data Center Services will help to ensure high availability of IT services and continuous reliable operations. HP will provide HP Network Management Services to remotely manage and monitor MLP’s networks across Germany.

HP also will continue providing HP Applications Development Services and HP Applications Management Services, managing MLP’s customer-facing and back-office applications. HP’s applications management provides tiered service levels to adjust support based on the criticality of each application and to recalibrate spending as technology and the portfolio changes.

With the IT and applications flexibility, MLP can rebalance technology investments as the business requires.
HP will provide these services from global delivery centers in Bulgaria, Germany, India, Poland and Slovakia. HP’s model blends the power of its technology portfolio with global delivery expertise to give clients greater flexibility and cost efficiency while minimizing risks.

HP hardware—including servers, storage, desktop and notebook PCs, networking and printers—is an integrated part of these services.

“To capitalize on growth opportunities, financial services companies like MLP need applications and business process support that is always available and easily adaptable to change,” said Mike Nefkens, senior vice president and general manager, Enterprise Services—Europe, Middle East and Africa, HP. “For more than 10 years, MLP and HP have worked collaboratively, leading to today’s relationship, in which our complete services portfolio enables MLP to pursue innovative offerings with the backing of efficient processes and an optimized technology infrastructure.”

HP’s premier Europe, Middle East and Africa client event, HP Discover, takes place Dec. 4-6 in Frankfurt, Germany.
