Innovation at CSC

At CSC, we believe that true innovation comes in many forms, and that spending time defining it serves us less than having the clarity of purpose to know why it is important.

Innovation is a means to an end, and not a goal in itself.

The goal of innovation is economic value, and our focus on innovation for that purpose is what distinguishes our approach of "practical innovation" from the more seductive dead ends of excessive creativity.

Uniting CSC's key technology leadership programs and groups, the Office of Innovation sets a new standard for practical innovation and solution delivery for CSC's clients.

"This new office reflects CSC's commitment to developing and harnessing the intellectual capital that will fuel an increased focus on innovation. It improves our global ability to apply IT strategically to deliver economic value to our customers." - Lem Lasher, President, CSC Office of Innovation.
