INDUSTRY OVERVIEW
The Indian Information Technology industry accounts for a 5.19% of the country's GDP and export earnings as of 2009, while providing employment to a significant
5|P a g e

number of its tertiary sector workforce. More than 2.5 million people are employed in the sector either directly or indirectly, making it one of the biggest job creators in India and a mainstay of the national economy. In 2010-11, annual revenues from ITBPO sector is estimated to have grown over US$76 billion compared to China with $35.76 billion and Philippines with $8.85 billion. India's outsourcing industry is expected to increase to US$225 billion by 2020. The most prominent IT hub is Bangalore. The other emerging destinations are Chennai, Hyderabad, Coimbatore, Kolkata, Kochi, Pune, Mumbai, Ahmedabad , NCR . Technically proficient immigrants from India sought jobs in the western world from the 1950s onwards as India's education system produced more engineers than its industry could absorb. India's growing stature in the Information Age enabled it to form close ties with both the United States of America and the European Union. However, the recent global financial crises has deeply impacted the Indian IT companies as well as global companies. As a result hiring has dropped sharply, and employees are looking at different sectors like the financial service, telecommunications, and manufacturing industries, which have been growing phenomenally over the last few years. India's IT Services industry was born in Mumbai in 1967 with the establishment of Tata Group in partnership with Burroughs. The first software export zone SEEPZ was set up here way back in 1973, the old avatar of the modern day IT park. More than 80 percent of the country's software exports happened out of SEEPZ, Mumbai in 80s. The origin of IT industry in India can betraced to 1974, when the mainframe manufacturer, Burroughs, asked its India sales agent, Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), to export programmers for installing system software for a U.S. client. The IT industry originated under unfavorable conditions. Local markets were absent and government policy toward private enterprise was hostile. The industry was begun by Bombay- based conglomerates which entered the business by supplying programmers to global IT firms located overseas.

6|P a g e

During that time Indian economy was state-controlled and the state remained hostile to the software industry through the 1970s. Import tariffs were high (135% on hardware and 100% on software) and software was not considered an "industry", so that exporters were ineligible for bank finance. Government policy towards IT sector changed when Rajiv Gandhi became Prime Minister in 1984. His New Computer Policy (NCP-1984) consisted of a package of reduced.

Figure: Break up of Total Global IT Spending

In an increasingly globalised world, significant complexity and uncertainty is getting attached to the unprecedented economic crisis. The Indian economy has also been impacted by the recessionary trends, with a slowdown in GDP growth to seven per cent. The focus and exponential growth in the domestic market has partially offset this fall and insulated the country, resulting in net overall momentum. The IT-BPO industry in India has today become a growth engine for the economy, contributing substantially to increases in the GDP, urban employment and exports, to achieve the vision of a young and resilient India. During the year, the sector maintained its double digit growth rate and was a net hirer. This growth has been fueled by increasing diversification in the geographic base and industry verticals, and adaptation in the service offerings portfolio. While the effects of the economic crisis are expected to linger in the near term future, the Indian IT-BPO industry has displayed resilience and tenacity in countering the
7|P a g e

unpredictable conditions and reiterating the viability of Indias fundamental value proposition. Consequently, India has retained its leadership position in the global sourcing market. During this period, direct employment is expected to reach nearly 2.23 million, an addition of 226,000 employees, while indirect job creation is estimated to touch 8 million. As a proportion of national GDP, the sector revenues have grown from 1.2 per cent in FY1998 to an estimated 5.8 per cent in FY2009. Software and services exports (including BPO) are expected to account for over 99 per cent of total exports, employing over 1.76 million employees. While the current mood is that of cautious optimism, the industry is expected to witness sustainable growth over a two-year horizon, going past its USD 60 billion export target in FY2011. While the industry has significant headroom for growth, competition is increasing, with a number of countries creating enabling business environments aimed at replicating Indias success in the IT-BPO industry. There are a few competitors who actually dominates the Indian IT market. Some of them ARE WIPRO, INFOSYS, IBM, TCS, CTS, SATYAM etc. They actually create the entry boundary in Indian IT industry. Their Revenue break up is given below;

THREAT OF SUBSTITUTES 1. Other offshore locations such as Eastern Europe, the Philippines and China, are emerging and are posing threat to Indian IT industry because of their cost-advantage. However, this should have an impact only in the medium to long term. 2. Price quoted for projects is a major differentiator, the quality of products being same.

BARGAINING POWER OF SUPPLIER 1. Due to slowdown, the job-cuts, the layoffs and bleak IT outlook. 2. Demand and supply of IT professionals is no longer that favorable to employees. 3. Availability of vast talent pool freshers and experienced.

BARGAINING POWER OF CUSTOMERS 1. Large number of IT companies vying for IT projects resulting in high competition for projects. 2. Huge decline in IT expenditure: Indian IT sector is dependent on USA and BFSI in particular for majority of its revenues, and with the recent financial crisis, the new spending from these has reduced tremendously. 3. However, for the existing products and services, the clients continue the old companies.

HISTORY

11 | P a g e

The Birth of the name Wipro - As the organization grew and diversified into operations of Hydraulic Cylinders and Infotech, the name of the organization did not adequately reflect its operations. Azim Premji himself in 1979 selected the name "Wipro" largely an acronym of Western India Products. Thus was born the Brand Wipro. The name Wipro was unique and gave the feel of an 'International" company. So much so that some dealers even sent their cheques favouring Wipro (India) Limited. Fortunately, the banks accepted them!!By the early 90s, Wipro had grown into various products and services. The Wipro product basket had soaps called Wipro Shikakai, Baby products under Wipro Baby Soft, Hydraulic Cylinders branded Wipro, PCs under the brand name Wipro, a joint venture company with GE named Wipro GE and software services branded Wipro. The Wipro logo was a 'W", but it was not consistently used in the products. It was clearly felt that the organization was not leveraging its brand name across the various businesses. The main issue remained whether a diverse organization such as Wipro could be branded under a uniform look and feel and could there be consistent communication about Wipro as an organization. Wipro started as a vegetable oil company in 1947 from an old mill founded by Azim Premji's father. When his father died in 1966, Azim, a graduate in Electrical Engineering from Stanford University, took on the leadership of the company at the age 21. He repositioned it and transformed Wipro (Western India Vegetable Products Ltd) into a consumer goods company that produced hydrogenated cooking oils/fat company, laundry soap, wax and tin containers and later set up Wipro Fluid Power to manufacture hydraulic and pneumatic cylinders in 1975. At that time, it was valued at $2 million. In 1977, when IBM was asked to leave India, Wipro entered the information technology sector. In 1979, Wipro began developing its own computers and in 1981, started selling the finished product. This was the first in a string of products that would make Wipro one of India's first computer makers. The company licensed technology from Sentinel
12 | P a g e

Computers in the United States and began building India's first mini-computers. Wipro hired managers who were computer savvy, and strong on business experience. In 1980 Wipro moved in software development and started developing customized software packages for their hardware customers. This expanded their IT business and subsequently invented the first Indian 8086 chip. Since 1992, Wipro began to grow its roots off shore in United States and by 2000 Wipro Ltd ADRs were listed on the New York Stock Exchange. With over 25 years in the Information Technology business, Wipro Technologies is the largest outsourced R & D Services provider and one of the pioneers in the remote delivery of IT services. Being a global provider of consulting, IT Services, outsourced R&D, infrastructure outsourcing and business process services, we deliver technology-driven business solutions that meet the strategic objectives.

ALTERNATIVE CAREER PATH


RECRUITMENT PROCESS OUTSOURCING: Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) is a form of business process outsourcing (BPO) where an employer outsources or transfers all or part of its recruitment activities to an external service provider. Outsourcing the human resource (HR) processes is the latest practice being followed by middle and large sized organizations. It is being witnessed across all the industries. In India, the HR processes are being outsourced from nearly a decade now. Outsourcing industry is growing at a high rate. Human Resource Outsourcing refers to the process in which an organisation uses the expert services of a third party (generally professional consultants) to take care of its HR functions while HR management can focus on the strategic dimension of their function. The functions that are typically outsourced are the functions that need expertise, relevant experience, knowledge and best methods and practices. This has given rise to outsourcing the various HR functions of an organization. The non-core recruitment processes such as database searching, job advertisements, head hunt research, internet mining, etc. involve 50 - 60% of the recruiters time, energies and costs. Outsourcing the non-core recruitment process creates additional efficiencies, while simultaneously allowing for a focus on building relationships with candidates and clients. Major consultancy firms are predicting a big boom for HR outsourcing as a whole. According to Gartner, McKinsey and others the outsourcing market is expected to touch US$ 78 billion by 2004. Gartner predicts that the worldwide HR outsourcing market will grow from $21.7 billion in 2000 to $58.5 billion in 2005 1. HR outsourcing is expected to be the fastest growing segment in the outsourcing market. 80 percent of companies now outsource at least one HR activity, and the number is growing fast. Though some analysts argue that by outsourcing major HR activities, the number of HR jobs is decreasing, others feel that on the

49 | P a g e

contrary by outsourcing these kinds of repetitive and administrative jobs, higherlevel HR professionals get the time they need to tackle strategic workforce challenges. With the growing market there are a number of vendors available who cater to the diverse needs of various markets and provide HR services, including staffing, payroll, benefits administration, training, employee relations, and compensation. Consequently, what started in the 1980s as a simple payroll outsourcing has exploded into a $32 billion a year business involving all facets of HR. In just four years, one HR services provider-Exult-has grown from a start-up with a handful of people to an established company with 1,500 employees and more than $400 million in annual revenues. Other big players include Accenture HR Services, ADP, Fidelity, Hewitt, and Convergys. HR OUTSOURCING AT MA FOI MANAGEMENT CONSULTANTS Chennai based Ma Foi is a perfect example of a company that has profited by effectively tapping the HR outsourcing market. The firm which initially began just by providing outsourcing services in recruitment is moving into other areas like compensation management, psychometric evaluation, training exit interviews, and outsourcing of personnel including sales staff and manual labor. The firm is a public limited company with revenues of $10.2 million for the financial year ending 2003. Such is the potential of the HR outsourcing market that if handled with expertise and integrity can be a highly profitable market. The company has identified that its potential markets range from pharma to FMCG. Its major clients include Coca Cola India, Thomson Electronics, Madura Garments, Alstom group and a major Healthcare recruiter in the UK. The firm recently launched three products, MRMS (Ma Foi Resume Management Systems), HRMS (Ma Foi Human Resource Management Systems, and DAREM (Daily Activity Reporting and Expense Management). According to Rajiv Krishnan, the director and CEO of the Ma Foi, these products will considerably reduce the time that corporate spend on regular transactional work. For example, the MRMS offers tracking, complete word-by-word search facility,
50 | P a g e

automated e-mail notification, user-friendly interface, total security and consolidated reports. A major software company can get one lakh resumes and this can be a useful tool for tracking these resumes. The second product, HRMS, encompasses a wider spectrum of employee HR needs. It helps capture, track, store, and modify all information concerning an employee in an organization. It has the ease of use for multiple user access and helps in integrating employee information. The third product DRAM helps companies to keep a track of the daily activity reporting. HR Outsourcing Human Resource Outsourcing: Scope for India One very important trend in the recent times has been the growth of human resource outsourcing. HR outsourcing is the outsourcing of peripheral but necessary administrative tasks such as payroll, benefits, education/training, recruiting personnel, administration, to realize economies of scale and achieve standardization of services. However, the future seems to be very promising. It's set to become a $ 51 billion market worldwide in 2005, representing 39 per cent of the total business process outsourcing revenue. Estimates show that the latent size of HR outsourcing in India is about $ 2 billion with a current market of $ 27 million and it is growing at an alarming rate of about 50 per cent. India has immense potential as more than 80% of fortune 1,000 companies are discussing HR outsourcing as a way to cut costs and increase productivity. Right now, India is barely skimming the surface of the HR outsourcing market potential. Indian life Hewitt (ILH), FIDELITY, EXULT and MAFOI are some of the prominent HR outsourcing services providers in India and the clients include giants of manufacturing, software and service industries like GE Capital, Ford Motors, Hyundai Motors, Satyam Group, Infosys, Enron, Haldia Petrochemicals and HSBC, to name a few HR outsourcing has a huge potential for employment also. Nasscom numbers are a million software jobs by 2008; HRO would be about a 25 per cent of that.
51 | P a g e

THE FUTURE AHEAD The future of HR outsourcing in India is poised to be very effective because of its intrinsic advantages such as low cost, ready pool of English speaking manpower and geographic positioning is emerging as a viable destination for HR outsourcing companies to set up their businesses. While currently there are only a few major players (table 1.2) the trend seems to be catching up as companies are showing marked interest to improve on services such as pay roll benefits as well as complete HR delivery. Companies are looking to outsourcing the complete range of HR delivery and designing products on policies, compensation, structure, and recruitment. Indian companies are not only providing services for the clients abroad but are also catering to the local market. Moreover these players are moving up the value chain. Mafoi has emerged as a major HR outsourcing center. It is estimated that currently the organized sector of HR is catering to only 5% of the whole market . This is the right time for the players to tap this emerging market.
