**Collaboration will help SITA create a Frontier Finance function – data-driven,
innovative and focused on growth and measurable business value – using AI and new
ways of working**

AMSTERDAM and GENEVA, Oct. 6, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Cognizant (Nasdaq: CTSH) today
announced that it has been selected by SITA, the world’s leading specialist in air
transport technology, as the implementation and transformation partner for SITA’s
SKY program. The groupwide, finance-led initiative will help SITA implement a modern
cloud platform across finance, procurement and supply chain processes, designed 
to deliver measurable business value across SITA’s global operations in more than
200 countries and territories.

The transformation is designed to move finance beyond reporting and operational 
processing, establishing it as a more strategic, growth-focused partner to the business.
Cognizant will work with SITA to implement a cloud-based ERP and management platform
spanning planning, performance, project management and procurement. By connecting
these functions through a shared data foundation, consistent ways of working and
AI-led insights, SITA aims to strengthen planning, identify opportunities earlier
and align resources more closely with its growth priorities.

Cognizant’s AI-first approach combines deep finance transformation expertise with
generative AI implementation agents, informed by intellectual property developed
through more than 800 cloud ERP projects. It draws on embedded platform AI capabilities
and custom agents built using Cognizant’s agentic AI capabilities to embed intelligence
into planning, forecasting, project management and day-to-day finance activities—
helping SITA accelerate delivery and put AI to work across live finance, procurement
and project management processes.

"SITA’s SKY program is a transformation program aimed at delivering strong business
outcomes," said Nicolas Husson, Chief Financial Officer at SITA. "By standardizing
core processes on Oracle Fusion Cloud and building AI into how we operate, we aim
to create a more agile finance organization and a strong foundation for our next
phase of growth." 

"SITA plays a critical role in the global air transport ecosystem, and its growth
requires an enterprise platform that can scale with the business, with technology
and AI serving the strategy rather than defining it," said Saket Gulati, Senior 
Vice President and Head of Northern Europe at Cognizant. "By bringing together our
cloud platform expertise, AI capabilities and end-to-end transformation experience,
we will help SITA build a modern data and operating model foundation, embed new 
ways of working, and help translate technology investment into growth and measurable
business value."

"Enterprise platforms are the backbone of how global organizations run, and SITA’s
SKY program is a great example of what’s possible when that backbone is rebuilt 
for an AI-first world," said Roshan Subudhi, SVP and Head of Global Markets- Intelligent
Enterprise Platforms at Cognizant. "By combining Agentic AI capabilities and our
Oracle Fusion expertise, we’re not just modernizing systems — we’re helping SITA
reimagine how finance, procurement and supply chain teams work together, so the 
business can move faster and make smarter decisions at scale."
