Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), a leading IT services, business solutions and consulting firm, has won a three year contract from the Zambia Revenue Authority (ZRA) for the modernization of its domestic tax system. This is the company's third revenue and tax system automation project in the African region after a successful implementation for Uganda Revenue Authority and ongoing implementation for Kenya Revenue Authority.

To carry out this transformational engagement, ZRA realized that it needed a strategic partner with strong domain expertise in executing tax administration systems as well as a strong technology credibility. TCS was the ideal choice having done more than 15 tax framework implementations in India, seven in USA and two in Africa. The scope of the project includes providing an integrated tax software application based on TCS' taxation framework, taxpayer 24/7 portal for e-services delivery, data migration, training, roll-out, warranty and operational support.

TCS offers a consulting-led, integrated portfolio of IT, BPO, infrastructure, engineering and assurance services.
