Expansion of services and significant projects
We have been working on building a better tomorrow for us and our stakeholders. New offerings, novel
client engagement models, innovation, focus on Research & Development (R&D) and the new economies
constitute the new order at Infosys.
Our Intellectual Property (IP)-based solutions continue to benefit clients. We are designing and
implementing a research informatics system at a leading biotechnology company to accelerate discovery
research. We are using our Scientific Innovation Solution for knowledge collaboration in this engagement. We
partnered with a telecom major to launch a Mobile Application Store. Powered by Flypp(TM), our 'Ready-to-
Launch' application platform, the store offers a bouquet of applications drawn from an Infosys-managed
ecosystem of Independent Software Vendors (ISVs) and innovators in India and across the globe. A
manufacturer is implementing the Infosys Supply Chain Visibility and Collaboration Suite as part of its
enterprise-wide initiative on sourcing business intelligence and spends analysis.
Learning Services, our recent organizational learning offering, is fast gaining traction among our clients. A
groceries and general merchandising company consulted us for training a core group of employees and
disseminating the knowledge across business users. A consumer electronics major consulted us for a
comprehensive learning management solution.
Industry leaders continue to turn to us for our Engineering Services, both in core areas such as R&D and
Product Development as well as newer services such as Mobility. A global auto leader engaged us to
formulate its Enterprise Mobility strategy to help optimize internal operations and present on-demand
information to its customers. We are helping a leading cable operator launch next-generation home gateway
devices for voice and data services. A leading defense electronics and systems company engaged us to
develop a navigation workstation. A global aircraft manufacturer engaged us to provide engineering design
services across multiple aircraft programs. We are building a Contact Center solution for a leading bank to
enhance customer service agent experience and productivity. For an information management services
leader, we are enabling sales expansion by carrying out accessibility compliance per US Federal and
Computer Security standards for its software product.
In a major transformation project, we will manage internal IT services for a US-based ISV and help it
implement ISO 20000 and IT Service Management (ITSM) processes. We will provide Infrastructure and
Application Services, Service Desk, and Desk-Side Services in 450 locations across 104 countries. For
another ISV, we are developing a cloud-based, closed and secure end-to-end system that consolidates and
delivers transaction statements, promotions, catalogues, and other media digitally from businesses to
households. A manufacturer engaged us to transform its turbine remanufacturing business. A manufacturer of
environmental and industrial measurement instruments partnered with us to standardize its systems across
the world and accelerate its Oracle E-Business Suite rollout using our proprietary tools and accelerators. An
aero company consulted us to enhance its customer application portal. A leading retailer partnered with us to
develop and implement a new multi-channel system for Order Management.
As the new economies transform into global economic hubs, we continue to focus on becoming a major
player there and attract significant clients. A large bank consulted us to eliminate process redundancies,
improve the quality of data reported, and reduce cycle time as well as processing cost. Another major bank
partnered with us to design, build and support a portal framework for wealth management. A
telecommunications and information services company engaged us to improve its customer self service
capability and customer retention. We partnered with the same company to deliver an emergency alert system
to ensure timely SMSes and voice warnings to community residents. This system, a life-saving service, won
national recognition for the client.
"We maintained our margins in one of the toughest years for the industry while our cash and cash
equivalents reached $3.5 billion," said V. Balakrishnan, Chief Financial Officer. "The currency volatility
continues to be a concern for the industry. We, however, have an active hedging program to
minimize its impact on our margins."
Change in Directors
Ms. Rama Bijapurkar resigned as the Independent Member of the Board with effect from April 13, 2010. The
Board accepted the resignation of Ms. Bijapurkar and placed on record its heartfelt appreciation for the
services rendered by her during her tenure as a director.
Mr. N. R. Narayana Murthy said, "Rama has been a highly productive member of the Board and we will
miss her. We wish her all the best for the future."
