Expansion of services and significant
projects

Infosys is focused on delivering
measurable business value to clients - whether it be initiating
transformational process changes, accelerating innovation or
driving best-in-class efficiencies.

Consulting & System
Integration

Infosys has developed a world-class
business consulting model to recharge technology-led transformation
for enterprises.

We transformed the IT environment of a large telecom Original
Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) to a cloud based model. For another
leading networking OEM, we are managing the engineering activities
for the development of a collaboration and communication
product.

For an aerospace company, we re-engineered a large application
resulting in productivity enhancements. A leading provider of
clean, green technology, products and services partnered with us to
develop a business transformation solution to define its core
process model in emerging and developed markets.

For a U.S.-based investment management company, we are building
a technology solution to transform its dealer compensation and
management platform.

A  U.S.-based high tech major partnered with us for cloud
analytics and insights, resulting in improved return on investment
through better customer service. For a leader in aerospace products
we are managing the PeopleSoft Center of Excellence (CoE) and
services, leading to cost savings through optimized global delivery
of services.  For a global retail major, Infosys delivered a
secure cloud-based solution that tracks carbon footprints of its
supplier ecosystem to help identify preferred suppliers for its
business.

Business Operations

Our best-practice approach to efficiently run small or large
portions of our client
s business will free up
resources for transformation and innovation-led growth
projects.

We partnered with a leading aircraft manufacturer’s
infrastructure department for application integration, release
management and infrastructure support. An aerospace major engaged
us to enhance its knowledge-based engineering tools to improve
product development performance and cycle time. A European airline
selected us to transform its business processes, governance and
organizational skill management, leading to enhanced business-IT
alignment.

For a large U.K.-based communications provider we built online
self-service capabilities, resulting in substantial cost savings
through a reduction in call volumes to data centers.

We provided testing services for the Smart Meter project of a
large electric utilities company, leading to a reduction in total
cost of ownership and improving the quality of the final product. A
global energy management solutions company engaged us to enhance
its building automation database, allowing its customers to migrate
to a new framework and save licensing costs. 

A vehicle glass repair and replacement company selected us to
implement its global warehouse management system and host the
infrastructure for the program.

For a leading bank, Infosys BPO enhanced productivity by
managing back office operations including bank deposit operations,
mortgage and investment services. An electronics and industrial
engineering major partnered with Infosys BPO for transition support
for captive shared service centers, leading to operational
excellence.

Products, Platforms &
Solutions

We continued to partner with clients
enabling them to leverage new business growth opportunities based
on our strength and ability to co-create and accelerate
innovation.

A semi-conductor major partnered with us to accelerate its
products pipeline by involving us in the designing, developing and
testing of new chipsets. Another global semiconductor company chose
us to create an Infosys Center of Excellence (CoE) for middleware
products.

We helped a hotel supplier in the development of an iPhone and
iPad application to provide end customers access to recipes,
improving engagement with customers and marketing efforts. For a
cable Multiple System Operator (MSO) in the U.S. we
developed an iPad application for video streaming, helping the
client launch its products in the market ahead of competition.

We helped a telecom company in the Australia and New Zealand
region migrate from 3G network to higher bandwidth technologies
like High Speed Packet Access (HSPA) and Long Term Evolution (LTE),
enabling faster rollout of technologies and better customer
satisfaction.
