Fletcher Jones

Fletcher Jones possessed an incredibly sharp, highly intuitive background in early corporate sales and aerospace data processing. Working aggressively within the highly complex aviation and defense sectors during the 1950s, his formative background navigating massive corporate bureaucracies provided him with the precise diplomatic and strategic leverage required to secure CSC's initial life-saving government contracts.

Fletcher Jones was a highly influential American entrepreneur and the co-founder of Computer Sciences Corporation (CSC), one of the massive corporate entities that eventually merged to form DXC Technology. In 1959, utilizing just $100 in capital, Jones partnered with Roy Nutt to launch CSC, aiming to write highly complex software for early computer manufacturers like Honeywell. While Nutt managed the intense technical engineering, Jones leveraged his brilliant sales acumen to secure massive, highly lucrative government and defense contracts. Under his aggressive executive leadership, CSC rapidly evolved into the largest independent software company in the world, completely pioneering the IT services industry long before the modern internet era, ultimately laying the massive foundational groundwork for DXC Technology.
