When a public U.S. company, which is also the Indian company said on the off-bearing, people listen.
As Syntel employees began moving into their spanking new style of Silicon Valley, 40 acres in Pune, India, early last week, the company joined a select from the list U.S. companies that are outside shored / external almost all their operations India.
While, many large companies outside the U.S. back-office operations to India to reduce costs, for Syntel it comes to more than just save money. Outsourcing all its activities in India, he demonstrates Syntel more than happy to put his money where his mouth is.
Its Pune building, complete with gyms, cafes, accommodation for the night, courtesy vans and other amenities American style, is part of the corporate residence and part showpiece. Conjuring some American activities in India, many thousands of kilometres, Syntel has developed its Indian operations to make a visit to U.S. customers feel comfortable about committing their computing operations peace away.
This not entirely new trend in India, A much more American business people to make a path to India in search of profits miracles; outsourcing companies have been converting them into the headquarters of the Indian model Google or Microsoft.
While, do these American businessmen feel at home but, as Jonathan James, Syntel Vice President of Global Marketing and Investor Relations said: These schools " U.S. style becomes even need to attract Indian staff. There is war in India for good talent ".
A Syntel Advantage
But, Syntel has gone one step further than most Indian foreign firms. He has almost all its external operations on its own India-based external center. Everything was moved to India, except for its sales and legal operations, with only 500 of its 6500 staff is currently in the United States.
" We have quite a unique kind of what this means for U.S. companies to outsource most of its major functions to India ", said Bharat Desai, executive director Syntel.
Founded in Troy, Michigan, even in 1980, Syntel was the brainchild of Desai and his wife, Neerja Sethi, when outsourcing was more about staffing than on the transfer of management of the entire enterprise applications, thousands of miles away.
Initially, Syntel hired only U.S. programmers, but later began to take on Syntel Indian developers in the 1990s, so much so, the culture of the U.S. company believes quite Indians, very soon.
" I could see a cultural change in our company at picnics ", said Mr. Desai. " As we transitioned into modern outsourcing, our company has become more and more Indians & quot;.
Focus Change
As staffing firm, 1990s saw Syntel grow to $ 10 million company, will soon become part of a very competitive market. This led Syntel focus more on the outsourcing market, which has just been taking shape in the 1990& 39;s. At the moment, Syntel began moving most of its operations India.
And, and then in 1998, going public company managed to raise $ 30 million.
", who helped the confidence of our customers, & quot; says Mr. Desai. " We could look other public companies as American Express directly in the eye and say: & quot; we tried outsourcing to India itself ". "
As U.S. companies, taking into account all financial statements and duties any government entity USA, Syntel Indian outsourcing company is able to attract more responsibilities by the end clients such as AIG, FedEx, Wells Fargo and JP Morgan.
" Syntel India and done much to attract more and more complex projects to these new development centres, as our Pune facility, " Says Mr. James. " It& 39;s like a home away from home for U.S. businessmen & quot;.
There more stories like Syntel, than say, because the success rate outside shored / external operations in India doing business schemes round. Obviously, India has more than proved he is not only low-end external challenges, but the verve and panache to assume all operations with the lack luster western firms, and turn them into dazzling, profit-raking centers, not only in it, but in every conceivable field. Eventually, India, experience and brightness is the result of centuries of experience, from time immemorial, when the world went to its shores in search of rich talent and lucrative trade. Maybe North and South America might not have been detected until much later, when Christopher Columbus did not set out to find the legendary sea of gold and exotic spices from India west.
As sailing in the past and present, India continues to perform many dreams to become rich and promising to do incredible destiny!
