Tesco Insurance and Money Services has signed a deal with Zensar Technologies to implement a comprehensive modernisation and digital transformation programme. The partnership will enable Tesco IMS to establish a scalable, cloud-first ecosystem. It will also enable Tesco IMS to carve out its operations from Tesco Bank, following the sale of its banking operations to Barclays UK and implement the specific regulatory controls required for the insurance business.

Robert Jamieson, chief information officer at Tesco IMS, said: “We’re excited to be partnering with Zensar to modernise our end-end infrastructure, network and application hosting services and contact centre.

“This technology will help build out our new platforms and tooling across our IT infrastructure whilst refreshing Cloud and Security landscapes operated by Zensar which will lead to a highly efficient operating model.”
