HP today announced that India has been designated as one of its shore global delivery hubs for its enterprise services. As one of six designated hubs by the multinational, India will support rising client demand for low-cost, scalable services.
As per the expansion plan, they would launch three new facilities in Bangalore and Chennai. HP expects to add close to 500,000 square feet of real-estate and hire additional talent in 2011.
These hubs will offer access to industry and technical expertise that can help tailor sophisticated solutions to meet unique client requirements. Additionally, they will help reduce delivery complexity by providing multiple services from a single location.
"The hub in India leverages our local HP Labs to deliver innovative services to help clients effectively meet business needs," said said Neelam Dhawan, HP Managing Director, India.
As a strategic hub, India will offer a complete range of capabilities in applications, infrastructure technology and business process outsourcing for global and domestic clients.
HP’s integrated shore global sourcing model provides high-quality, flexible services using standardised tools, processes and best practices to more cost-effectively support clients. This model includes the skilled global workforce of MphasiS, a majority-owned, India-based business of HP.
The HP best shore expansion is part of the $1 billion investment announced in June to transform and grow its enterprise services business. Other hub locations include Bulgaria, China, Costa Rica, Malaysia and the Philippines.
