Insights
DXC Technology's new contract with Skanska AB represents a strategic win in DXC's ongoing business transformation efforts. This comprehensive IT infrastructure modernization agreement includes the valuable transfer of Skanska's IT staff to DXC, creating a deeper integration that typically results in higher-margin, longer-term engagements than standard implementation contracts.
While financial terms weren't disclosed, similar enterprise-scale IT infrastructure outsourcing deals in the construction sector typically range from $50-150 million over 3-5 years. The comprehensive scope covering cloud management, cybersecurity, workplace solutions, and network operations suggests this is likely on the higher end of that spectrum. For DXC, with trailing twelve-month revenue of approximately $13.7 billion, this deal won't dramatically move the needle but represents precisely the type of stable, recurring revenue contract the company needs as it works to stabilize its business after several challenging years.
The construction industry presents fertile ground for IT services providers as it undergoes digital transformation. Construction firms typically operate with thin margins (3-5%) and face increasing pressure to improve operational efficiency while meeting sustainability targets. By outsourcing non-core IT functions, Skanska can focus capital and talent on its primary business while leveraging DXC's economies of scale.
The employee transfer component is particularly significant. These transitions can be complex, but when executed well, they provide DXC with specialized talent familiar with Skanska's operations while offering these employees career advancement opportunities in a technology-focused organization. This human capital acquisition could potentially open doors to additional service opportunities within Skanska.
For investors, this win demonstrates DXC's continued relevance in the enterprise IT services market despite intense competition from both traditional players like IBM and Accenture and Indian IT services giants like TCS, Infosys, and Wipro. The deal's timing suggests revenue contribution beginning in Q1/Q2 FY2026, potentially helping offset other contract roll-offs. Key metrics to watch in upcoming earnings calls include:
- Book-to-bill ratio improvement
- Commentary on deal implementation progress
- Any expansion of services within the Skanska relationship
- Gross margin trends as this higher-value work ramps up
While positive, investors should note that successful execution will be critical, as large-scale IT modernization projects carry inherent complexity and risk. DXC's ability to deliver on this high-profile engagement will serve as an important proof point for its turnaround strategy.
As part of the agreement, services and employees currently managing Skanska's global IT infrastructure operations will be transferred to DXC Technology.
The construction and project development industry is undergoing significant digital transformation, with companies prioritizing sustainability, process optimization and cost efficiency. Skanska, known for its landmark projects such as
