Computer Sciences Corporation ("CSC") is one of the fastest growing companies in India. The consolidation of five of CSC's existing offices in Nodia, India, was the catalyst for initiating sweeping organisational and cultural change throughout CSC. In partnership with Johnson Controls, CSC has implemented an Alternative Workplace Solutions ("AWS") model aimed at providing consistent office environments across their global portfolio. The AWS model provided the framework for increased operational efficiency in terms of costs, flexible work practices, and space utilisation.
In addition to operational and process improvements, CSC and Johnson Controls have adopted a joint initiative called "Working Together". This initiative is aimed at unifying the vision, goals, behaviours, and performance measures for both companies. This approach has stretched the level of service CSC has been able to provide to its clients as well as creating a work environment that is instrumental in both CSC and JCI's ability to attract and retain valuable employees.
