IT OUTSOURCING NEGOTIATIONS WITH EDS
TERMINATED
ALSTOM announced on 20 November 2002 that EDS had been chosen as preferred
bidder for the project to outsource the Company's IT infrastructure,
applications and related services.
Since then, negotiations have proceeded, but the two parties have been unable to
reach mutually acceptable terms for the transaction. It has been decided,
therefore, to terminate negotiations.
ALSTOM continues to favour outsourcing its IT in order to reduce costs, while
delivering improved operational efficiency, and higher IT service and quality
levels.
