Dec. 18, 2021
The multiyear deal provides Xerox with a range of services for its business. The firm believes it will save the company up to $300 million over the next five years.
Xerox and Oracle have announced a multiyear cloud deal that will allow both companies to work together in the cloud. The deal will give Xerox access to Oracle’s cloud services, while also allowing Oracle to tap into Xerox’s hardware expertise.
On Thursday, Xerox Holdings Corp. announced a multiyear agreement with Oracle Corp., which would offer cloud computing infrastructure and software to Xerox’s business incubator.
The deal’s terms were not revealed.
The move is part of Xerox’s aim to accelerate the creation of new businesses that go beyond its trademark printers and copiers, whether as new business units, startups, subsidiaries, or joint partnerships.
Xerox’s net income for the quarter ended Sept. 30 fell to $90 million from $219 million a year earlier, when corporations migrated to remote work and left vacant buildings behind during the height of the Covid-19 epidemic in 2020. The business announced in October that net income for the same time this year was nearly steady at $89 million.
According to Naresh Shanker, Xerox senior vice president and chief technology officer, “creating new in-house companies” was a strategy that predates the pandemic but was expedited by workplace closures and remote work.
The objective, according to Mr. Shanker, is to build firms focusing on 3-D printing, industrial Internet-of-Things, and sustainable technology, among other new technologies, which the company has recognized as having high development potential.
Mr. Shanker said, “The aim is to develop an atmosphere and agility to compete with all of the entrepreneurs in these various areas throughout the globe.”
Xerox, based in Norwalk, Conn., is using Oracle’s cloud services to provide the digital backbone for these new businesses, which includes enterprise apps for e-commerce platforms, finance and accounting, budgeting and financial planning, analytics, and a data warehouse, among other tools, according to him.
Depending on the industry and market, each new company is projected to need its own unique information-technology infrastructure, according to Mr. Shanker. Importantly, he noted, these systems must be implemented quickly and flexible enough to react to changing market needs.
“It’s all about getting things done quickly.” “That’s how we got here,” Mr. Shanker said.
