Calling For More Measure

07.04.2009

Infosys will continue to change. We are introducing new services like learning services and, maybe even software-as-a-service. We are expanding geographically. From a market perspective, we have created business units or initiative to focus on the West Asia and Latin America.

India is a focus area for us, as is China. From a delivery capability perspective, we have opened a delivery center in Mexico and we are still investing in China. From an industry perspective, we see opportunities in new sectors, or sectors that are small today but which have significant potential, including the public sector and the government.

One of the possibilities that could come out of the downturn is that cloud computing really takes off. We already have solutions and relationships that we can leverage if it does.

But aren't you focusing on making Infosys a more agile company for the future?

We already have processes in place that allow us to react very fast. We have five-year scenario plans, three-year business plans, one-year budget plans and budgets are revised every quarter. We announce our results within two weeks of a quarter's end. We are one of the companies that still gives guidance. That shows that the business has the information it needs. And quarterly budget revisions allows us to respond to situations very quickly.
