CSC lands Nissan contract

Nissan North America has hired CSC to run its information technology services at its facilities in North America.

Falls Church-based CSC did not disclose the financial terms of the multi-year contract.

Under terms of the contract, CSC will provide support for desktop computers, PDAs and other wireless hand-held devices. It covers Nissan operations at 40 facilities in the United States and North America.

Announcement of the Nissan contract comes three days after a much larger deal for CSC. On Friday, The Washington Business Journal reported the Transportation Security Administration awarded CSC an IT contract previously held by Unisys Corp worth at least $2 billion.

TSA has not made a formal announcement.

CSC (NYSE: CSC) had net income of $133 million last quarter on $3.9 billion in sales. It has $16 billion in annual sales and about 10,000 Washington area employees.
