Keppel DC Singapore 1 takes DXC to court for $14.8m

The suit pertained to DXC's failure to pay for colocation services.

Keppel DC REIT announced its facility manager, Keppel DC Singapore 1 (KDC), has commenced a suit in the High Court of Singapore against DXC Technologies. The former claimed DXC failed to pay in connection to colocation services at 25 Serangoon North Avenue 5 data centre.

Under the lease and facilities management arrangement between Keppel DC REIT and KDC, a portion of KDC's revenue from the management of the facility, such as the revenue generated from colocation services provided to customers like DXC, is payable to Keppel DC REIT. The amount being disputed is approximately $14.8m for the four years between 1 April 2021 and 31 March 2025.

Whilst KDC, together with Keppel DC REIT and DXC, have engaged in various commercial discussions and mediation, the parties have not been able to arrive at a mutually acceptable resolution.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
