March 4 (Reuters) - Indian IT services provider Coforge

said on Tuesday it had entered into a 13-year

agreement valued at $1.56 billion with Sabre Corp ( SABR ) to

strengthen the U.S.-listed travel booking provider's product

roadmap.

The agreement will further Sabre's ability to accelerate

product delivery and launch additional artificial

intelligence-driven solutions, Coforge added in an exchange

filing.

"The scale and the complexity of the mandate reflect the

deep trust and capability that both organizations bring to this

partnership," Coforge CEO Sudhir Singh said.
