Overview
DXC Technology is a US-listed IT services company (NYSE: DXC) formed in April 2017 through the merger of HPE Enterprise Services and CSC. The firm reports approximately US$13 billion in revenue across roughly 130,000 employees in more than 70 countries. ServiceNow has been a strategic priority since 2018, and DXC has consistently been ranked as one of the largest pure-play ServiceNow systems integrators globally, holding Global Elite Partner status. CEO Raul Fernandez took over in early 2024 from Mike Salvino.
DXC's ServiceNow practice covers the full Now Platform, with particular strength in ITSM, ITOM, CMDB discovery and Service Mapping, SecOps, and IRM. The firm has built proprietary assets including the Platform X delivery accelerator, the DXC ServiceNow CMDB Health Check, and the DXC Insurance Pre-Configured Solution that overlays insurance-specific workflows. DXC retains tens of thousands of legacy infrastructure outsourcing accounts globally, which gives the ServiceNow practice deeper natural pull-through for ITOM and event management work than most pure consulting firms.
DXC is typically a fit for infrastructure-heavy enterprises and insurers that need ServiceNow tightly integrated with existing managed services or where a single vendor must own both run-state operations and platform development. The firm has been through several years of restructuring under prior CEOs and is still rebuilding senior consulting bench in some geographies. Buyers should ask for named accounts and reference checks in their specific region rather than relying on global capability claims.

Strengths
- One of the largest pure-play ServiceNow practices globally by certified headcount
- Deep CMDB, discovery, and Service Mapping capability inherited from legacy CSC/HPE infrastructure operations
- Established managed services bench with strong ITIL discipline
- Insurance-specific accelerators and a large installed base of insurance customers
- Lower blended rates than the Big Four and consulting-led peers
- Strong UK and Australia delivery capacity
Limitations
- Multi-year revenue declines and several restructurings have eroded senior consulting bench in some regions
- Brand perception in the market lags Accenture and Deloitte for transformation-led work
- Process and change management capability is thinner than Big Four alternatives
- Public-facing accelerator IP is less well documented than ServiceNow's own native modules
- Buyer references should be checked at country level — capability is uneven across geographies
