Computer Systems, a provider in
IT and BPO services, announced plans to significantly augment its
Gujarat delivery operations with the opening of their second delivery
center in Gandhinagar. The move is triggered by a recent deal signed
by the company to provide Product Engineering Services (PES) and
Application Development Management (ADM) services to a leading UK
based enterprise.

Speaking on the launch, Jeya Kumar,
Chief Executive Officer, Patni said, “The inauguration of our new
facility in Gandhinagar demonstrates our sustained commitment to this
region. We are looking at strengthening our presence in this
burgeoning IT delivery hub and expect Gandhinagar to play a crucial
part in this delivery expansion strategy.”

The headcount of the existing center
stands at 400 and the new center plans to hire an additional 350,
taking the total to over 750 employees in the next one year. Anil
Gupta, EVP and Global Head- Business Support, Patni said, “Over
the last few years, Gujarat has emerged as an extremely
investor-friendly destination with world class infrastructure, SEZ
benefits and a rich talent pool. Additionally our facility is based
on principles of green architecture thus cementing our commitment to
green initiatives. We are happy to have chosen Gandhinagar to house
two of our significant delivery units.”
