Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), a global IT services and consulting leader, has extended its long-standing partnership with Tryg, a Scandinavian non-life insurance company, through a new seven-year agreement valued at €550 million. The TCS Tryg partnership is designed to simplify and standardize Tryg’s operations across Denmark, Sweden, and Norway while driving technological transformation to accelerate growth.
The expanded engagement will see TCS take ownership of application development and management, infrastructure services, end-user support, and cybersecurity. By deploying its suite of cloud and artificial intelligence solutions, TCS aims to automate core processes, strengthen delivery capabilities, and enhance the overall customer experience for Tryg’s more than six million policyholders.
Building a Scalable and Future-Ready IT Ecosystem
The agreement aligns with Tryg’s “United Towards 27” strategy, which focuses on simplifying IT operations and creating the capacity for digital innovation. Through this initiative, TCS will establish a unified, digital-first operating model across Tryg’s three primary markets, consolidating fragmented systems shaped by acquisitions and regional variations.
The streamlined approach is expected to deliver significant operational efficiencies, reduce development and maintenance costs, and improve scalability. By embedding automation and AI across the IT value chain, Tryg will be better positioned to accelerate its time-to-market for new solutions and respond to evolving customer expectations.
Johan Kirstein Brammer, Group CEO of Tryg, noted that simplifying the company’s IT landscape will enable greater investment in new technologies, helping differentiate the brand in competitive insurance markets and strengthening long-term business performance.
Strengthening TCS’ Nordic Presence
For TCS, the deal reinforces its three-decade presence in the Nordic region, where it already supports leading enterprises across industries including banking, retail, telecom, manufacturing, and life sciences. With over 20,000 employees serving clients in the region, the company has consistently ranked high in customer satisfaction surveys for its banking, financial services, and insurance expertise.
K Krithivasan, CEO of TCS, emphasized that building adaptive, AI-powered enterprises is key to long-term success in the insurance sector. He highlighted that The TCS Tryg partnership reflects both companies’ commitment to creating resilient and future-ready ecosystems.
TCS and Tryg have collaborated for more than 15 years, delivering multiple transformation milestones during that period. The new agreement strengthens this relationship by positioning TCS as a strategic technology partner for Tryg’s next phase of growth.
Broader Industry Implications
The partnership underscores a wider trend in the insurance sector: a shift toward large-scale digital transformation to improve efficiency, scalability, and customer engagement. As insurers face mounting pressure from both traditional competitors and digital-first entrants, strategic investments in cloud infrastructure, AI, and automation are becoming critical for maintaining market relevance.
For the Nordic insurance industry, the TCS Tryg partnership highlights the increasing reliance on global IT providers to modernize operations and support long-term strategic goals. By optimizing IT landscapes and embedding digital-first approaches, insurers can free up resources to innovate and expand service offerings, potentially reshaping how customers interact with insurance providers across the region.
