Although a relatively new company, born in 2016, Uniper is, in many ways, one of Infosys’s oldest clients. Previously part of the E.ON Group, Uniper was set up to manage a large Power Generation Portfolio, a substantial mid-stream gas business and one of the world’s largest energy trading portfolios. In terms of the latter, there have been deep and successful offshore IT relationships between the now Uniper Team and a number of Indian based service providers.
The split from E.ON gave Damian Bunyan, CIO, and his team a unique opportunity. Either they used E.ON as an IT Service Provider or they would make their own way. The Uniper Team set out to fully move themselves on a new IT landscape. They have fully exited E.ON’s Data Centres, moving all applications towards the public cloud. A new network was built and Uniper staff are enjoying the benefits of the modern cloud based workplace with its evergreen approach and modern security.
Working practices have also kept up. Where it makes sense, DevOps and Agile methods have become the norm.
