TCS >> Expansion outside INDIA

TCS trying to create Mini India in South America

India's largest software company TCS today said it has consolidated its operations in Uruguay and Argentina into a single unit and plans to double its workforce to 2,400 in the next 2-3 years.

This unit would focus on providing nearshore services to other Latin America countries as well as to the US and Europe, a company statement said.

TCS Vice-President (Business Development) Mario Tucci has been appointed as the country manager of the new unit which comprises a global delivery centre and regional training centre in Montevideo (Uruguay) as well as an extension centre in Buenos Aires (Argentina).

The company has plans for a major expansion of this unit in the future.

“This region has very highly-trained human resources, English language skills and an attractive cost structure, which makes it a natural base for exporting services to other countries,” Tucci said. “Leveraging these conditions, we intend to grow to 1,200 employees this year and double our employee and client base over the next 2-3-years,” he added. TCS will be expanding its infrastructure by setting up a new building for over 400 professionals in Montevideo which would be inaugurated in November.
