context_page_description: Logica plc was a multinational IT and management consultancy company headquartered in London and later Reading, United Kingdom.
  Founded in 1969, the company had offices in London and in a number of major cities across England, Wales and Scotland, as well as in other countries around the world. It was responsible for many telecommunications infrastructure projects, such as the design of the SWIFT network for international money transfers, the Euronet packet-switching network, and the Bay Area Rapid Transit in San Francisco. Following the acquisition of CMG in 2002, the company was known as LogicaCMG from then until 2008, when it changed its name back to Logica. The company's main business at that point was in providing consulting, systems integration, and IT outsourcing in both the public and private sectors.
  Logica was acquired by Canada-based CGI Group in 2012 and the Logica brand name ceased being used in 2013.
context_section_description: During the 1980s and 1990s Logica ran an extensive graduate recruitment programme that resulted in the company having a relatively young workforce. Naturally, strong social bonds formed between the graduate employees, many of whom were living away from home for the first time. The company subsidised an active sports and social club to further encourage staff cohesion. Logica staff affectionately refer to themselves as "LogiBod". 
  Ties between former employees often persist longterm up to and including the present. There is an independently operated alumni society, run by former employees, to cater for nostalgic needs of LogiBods and help them keep in touch.
