Platform DXC suffers from not just slideware as opposed to reality, most of DXC offerings (the actual things DXC is supposed to sell) do not yet support or run fully or at all on PDXC, and most struggle to integrate with its rudimentary integration capabilities. With the significant cuts to the offerings (ie Build) capability there is little chance of this changing in the near term, and then there is the issue of the installed base all running on legacy delivery platforms (prehistoric cousins of PDXC) and no $ to migrate them even at account renewal time, despite the frequent (idle) threats to retire the legacy platforms. We are now seeing some regions breakaway and pursue their own alternative, cheaper, nimbler and more pragmatic alternatives to PDXC.

Agree with 1idh, the promise is in the slideware, but unfortunately engineering has suffered too many losses to 'squeak' it out the door. All implementations are custom and costly.

I believe a 'sideways' reference to the issue of automation roll-out was made in the Q1 earnings.

The most insidious fact is that DXC delayed help from the TESM practice, the blocker as I understand was arguments over SOW scope/cost!

in short, PDXC is an unsuccessful attempt of few diletants to create something like a platform/framework based on ServiceNow and "free/non-paid SW" in public Cloud (AWS) to provide "digital services" to our potential clients

After 2 years of "development" and 10 "buildatons" (usually 2 weeks sessions over the Globe where each of the engaged people spends thousand of $) the result is nothing, the most of PDXC is painted in PPT files, it has serious issues with NW and security and, of course, with the resources, since the most skilled people are already gone

Its Platform DXC. It's a one stop shop basically where all different DXC offerings tie in to Service Now offering clients a easy add / remove services. I.e. Ask for 50 servers it could be delivered in minutes instead of months. Sadly still not working correctly and over budget and over running.
