IT services firm iGATE, announced that it will set up a facility in Loudoun County, in the US. It expects to create 250 jobs over the next two or three years.
iGate will be investing around Rs 5.5 crore for setting up the centre, which will serve the government sector. The centre will offer design-build-operate-maintain services for Federal Government projects.
“Establishing this facility in Loudoun County, the home of the Washington Dulles International Airport, gives iGate access to 80 per cent of the world’s economies – a key advantage to a global organization. In addition, with more than 900 federal government contractors located in Loudoun, and with almost 20 per cent of the County’s workforce employed by the information and communications technology industry, doing business in Loudoun makes perfect sense for a company like iGate,” said Loudoun County Board of Supervisors Chairman Scott K. York.
Timothy Coffin, President, iGATE Government Solutions said “This facility enhances our ability to deliver top quality, innovative IT solutions to our government customers. We are looking forward to building this team of experts to ensure we are supporting our customer’s mission.”
