COSOL Asia Pacific is pleased to announce that IBM has subcontracted COSOL to provide its proprietary IP RPConnect®, and professional data migration services for the Australian Department of Defence’s Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) transformation program.

This extension to the current project work for the Department of Defence is valued at $8.5 million of revenue and is expected to be completed between April 2021 and December 2022.
The award of this contract continues COSOL’s longstanding strategic relationship with IBM and the Department of Defence and recognises COSOL’s proven expertise of the flexibility and success of COSOL’s RPConnect® Data Management platform for the Defence ERP Programme and its ability to integrate data from multiple systems.
“COSOL is thrilled to be partnering with IBM and the Department of Defence. The fact that COSOL has been contracted for end-to-end data migration responsibility demonstrated the confidence that IBM and the Department have in COSOL to deliver this complex project,” said COSOL Asia Pacific CEO, Scott McGowan.
“We also want to acknowledge and thank IBM for their commitment to the Australian SME community. The award of this new work is the latest win from COSOL’s strategic pipeline of SAP data migration opportunities based on the strength of COSOL’s digital transformation expertise and capabilities,” he said.
