  17. Investments in the Indian IT Sector According to a Mckinsey Survey 80 percent of the top 40 global IT services firms have a presence in India … • Accenture: • Has announced plans to invest close to $180m over the next four years towards providing Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) service • Plans to hire another 1,500 employees to make its Indian technology centre a strategic hub, and double its Indian software and back-office staff to 2,500 within two years • EDS: • Has announced plans to move about 700 jobs to India. EDS said it will spend $12 million on a new customer call center in Mumbai, India, next year, resulting in a phased transfer of 700 jobs to that region. • IBM / IBM Global Services: • IBM Global has over 3000 professionals across 6 development centers in the country. It is aiming at adding 7000 professionals over the next 3 years • IBM Global Services in Bangalore has bagged a mammoth outsourcing project from AT&T. The work, pertaining to application development, enhancement and maintenance, has been contracted for a 10-year period. IBM will increase its workforce dedicated to this project by 250 people by the end of next year. Eventually, there could be around 5,000 people working on this project. • Deloitte Consulting • Has now a 450-people centre in India, providing BPO and SAP Support services FH – IDATE Nov 19th, 2003

  18. Investments in the Indian IT Sector..(contd.) • Computer Science Corporation: • Is setting up two development centers in Noida and Hyderabad with manpower strengths ranging from 300-400 personnel.

It had plans to cross the 5000 mark by end 2002. • GE: • Has announced that its fresh round of investments in the Indian market are likely to be directed towards the InfoTech sector. Software exports from India are expected to rise to $3 billion by 2004 with software outsourcing expected to account for a third of the export targets • GE has 11,000 employees in 3 centres in India – this is to be expanded to 27,000 employees in 9 centres In addition to the above a few others such as Perot Systems, Deloitte & Touche and Groupe Bull are either sub-contracting work to Indian companies or have formed joint ventures with local players. Valtech is subcontracting to Hexaware, Deloitte & Touche has a joint venture with Mastek, and Perot with HCL. FH – IDATE Nov 19th, 2003

  19. Consequences • Off shore production and maintenance for software creates a real risk of loss of skills and jobs for the most advanced countries : whereas for manufacturing it’s generally admitted that it takes 10 years for a sub-contractor to gain full knowledge and to be able to design by himself, in the software industry, this times is probably reduced by a factor 3, because there is almost no boarder between the design and the production itself. Subcontracting the production then means exporting the know how. • IT Indian companies are now strong global players • Large (US) integrators will take advantage of the off shore IT production • Need for Europe to organize near shore in Eastern Europe FH – IDATE Nov 19th, 2003
