Toyota Australia has selected Fujitsu to provide cloud services for one of its critical information technology operations.
Under terms of the deal Fujitsu will look after Toyota’s TUNE Dealership Management System which is used by Toyota dealerships across Australia.
The three year agreement offers a service on a monthly basis, with no ‘lock in’ term or contract fees if Toyota wishes to walk away.
James Scott, Divisional Manager Information Systems Division, Toyota Australia said, “TUNE is critical to our business performance. We needed a trusted leader in cloud services for this project and Fujitsu’s Cloud Services will provide us with a robust and secure IT strategy for this expanding application.” Scott said.
The benefits of moving TUNE into the cloud are said to be Toyota dealers experiencing faster software response times and increased data stability and security.
Rod Vawdrey, Chief Executive Officer, Fujitsu Australia and New Zealand, said: “Fujitsu’s 32 year history with Toyota Australia showcases the levels of trust and security that a successful IT partnership provides. Fujitsu is honoured to continue our relationship with one of the leading automotive companies in the nation.”
