Competitive Strengths

Focused on volume growth using cost as a leverage and has the


largest workforce among IT service companies

TCS has adopted a model of going into new geographies and new
service lines. ( Risk appetite is high )

In the year 2008 it made big acquisition to the tune of $512 million all
by cash to buy out Citi Global Services. This helped TCS to become
number 1 in BPO service. Recently TCS acquired CRL which would
allow it to offer more differentiated services to its global clients

Growth was led by markets like the UK and Europe, growth markets
like India, Asia-Pacific, Latin America and the Middle East
performed well

While financial services verticals relative performance is not as


expected, retail, manufacturing and telecom have performed well

Strategy For Long Term


Growth

Customer-centricity:Seek to build, nurture and deepen customer relationships to become trusted


strategic partners to the customers. As an industry-segmented, customer-centric organization is an
important enabler that has ensured high levels of accountability, superior customer service and
intimacy

Full Services Capability:TCS has been investing in building a comprehensive, integrated portfolio
of services to capture the entire value chain of IT, presenting a compelling value proposition for
global enterprises making it a one-stop shop for many key clients, significantly deepening the
relationship

Non-linear Business Models:TCS has been building non-linear growth businesses that can enable
revenue growth without commensurate headcount growth. Non-linearity in the existing businesses
comes from productivity-enhancing tools, frameworks, solution accelerators and managed services
engagements

Global Network Delivery Model Facilitate cost arbitrage across geographies

Strategic Acquisitions For quick growth across segments and geographies

The Game Changer

Global Network Delivery Model


(GNDM)

TCS' GNDM lets them seamlessly and uniformly deliver services to global customers from
multiple locations across India, China, Europe, North America and Latin America
Teams separated by time zones collaborate on projects, leveraging all of TCS' assets while subscribing
to one global service standard
Ituses multiple levers of time zone, language, skills and local business knowledge to deliver high
quality business solutions seamlessly across the globe, using a globally connected workforce,
integrated delivery processes and multi-tiered infrastructure
This model developed by TCS is now recognized as the benchmark of excellence in software
development
For large clients expanding beyond their home markets, the scale and depth of GNDM capability
makes them their preferred strategic partner

Strategic Acquisitions

While primarily focusing on organic growth, TCS is also open to selective strategic acquisitions in order to
penetrate select markets, strengthen verticals and enhance service offerings

Steps taken for Transformation


Establishing a Sense of Urgency

Empowering others to act on the vision

Market reality: Globalization is todays essence


Major opportunities lies in overseas market

TCS is aggressively pursuing companys globalization


effort
To that extent TCS have to keep innovation engine
growing, grow global delivery centres, and leverage any
talent or resource in the right way

Forming a powerful Guiding coalition


Strategic alliances with global leaders in technology and
eBusiness, such as IBM, Netscape, Microsoft, SAP, Oracle
and Compaq
Creating a vision
To get an extra dimension to address the global delivery
need

Planning for and creating short term wins


TCS stresses on aspects like localization, ability to deliver
the same quality on a global basis
Consolidating improvements and still
producing change
People who become part of this organization too have to
be global in nature

Communicating the vision


TCS is aggressively pursuing companys globalization
effort. This vision is communicated by press releases,
information on internet.

Institutionalizing new approaches


TCS want companys alliance partners to feel that they are
dealing with the best solution providers

What TCS can improve upon

Large proportion of revenues from developed markets, especially the US, that are facing
economic difficulties - volatility

Lags peers and multinational rivals in high-end consulting offerings cannot go premium

Heavy exposure to banking, financial services and insurance vertical plenty of dependency

Lower outsourcing costs in neighboring South Asian markets could see contracts move away
from TCS threat of new entrants

There are no visible leaders beyond N Chandrasekaran leadership issue

Lack of scale in consulting operations scalability
