HCL is said to be one of the earliest providers of Remote Infrastructure Management (RIM) as a service offering. Having started off as a co-sourcing type of engagement years back, HCL continues its leadership position in RIM with a bevy of customers that include Fortune 500, and global 2,000 companies.
HCL achieved high success in its deals with the new transformation strategy. The transformational deals, which began in 2005, position HCL as partner of their clients rather than just provider. And with this belief, HCL has inked three integrated-services deals of over $200 million within a span of two years. These engagements signed with Hercules, DSGi, Teradyne, Skandia, etc., have moved in a steady state, and are beginning their subsequent phases of IT transformation.
“Hercules selected HCL on the basis of its depth and breadth of experience with global customers, its partnership approach and the long-term flexibility of its engagement models,” comments Anne Schumann, VP, IT, Hercules on HCL’s capabilities.
While their other service offerings — engineering, business process outsourcing and applications — have witnessed growth in the first quarter 2007 to 2008, infrastructure services with a year-on-year growth of 63 percent reaffirm HCL’s dominant market position. Infrastructure also contributes almost 14 percent to the company’s annual revenue.
