History
DCS was founded more than 40 years ago in 1973 in Geneva by the Galle family. We are at the dawn of computing and many accountant companies need to process documents. We still do not speak the word outsourcing but this is indeed what DCS offers its creation: services enabling its customers to focus solely on their business without having to manage staff management issues for operations without added value. We are talking about data entry (hence the name Data Conversion Service). By 1974 DCS creates an entry operators school to meet the demand for qualified personnel.
In 1975, DCS obtained a service provision contract with CERN (which is always client) to provide IT support (or outsourcing) of the computing center. Again, the goal is to leave CERN management to focus on other tasks; The future of the universe is a stake !
