Wipro has been selected by the John Lewis Partnership (JLP) to transform and modernize the firm’s IT infrastructure. The transformation project will help the UK retailer advance its industry leadership and future-proof its business to drive ongoing, sustainable growth.

As part of this engagement, Wipro FullStride Cloud will extend JLP’s current cloud infrastructure, Network and End user services for another four years. The Wipro FullStride Cloud team will collaborate with JLP and Google Cloud in a strategic transformation of their X86 platform to the cloud, enabling them to unlock new business value by making them more agile, optimizing operating costs, and streamlining business operations.

As part of this engagement, Wipro and JLP will investigate the adoption of innovative solutions that continue to reinforce their industry leadership and put the retailer at the forefront of retail technology and store modernization.

Omkar Nisal, UKI Managing Director, Wipro Limited said, “We’re delighted to be expanding our work with the John Lewis Partnership. Enabling them to modernize and future-proof their business speaks to our deep understanding of their needs from our long-term engagement with them. Through Wipro FullStride Cloud, our deep industry experience, and our vast technology expertise we are helping JLP build a bespoke modernization program that will realise their business ambitions.”

David Hunn, CIO, John Lewis Partnership, said: “As we look to grow and modernize our business, Wipro’s comprehensive expertise in digital transformation and thorough understanding of our business needs make them the ideal partner. Our shared values of creating sustainable growth are exemplified in our strong and long-lasting relationship.”
