Bangalore , Sept. 18 INDIA is a strategic market for i2 Technologies — not only in terms of development but also in terms of business opportunities, according to Mr Sanjiv Sidhu, founder, chairman and CEO of the $500-million supply chain management solutions provider. For i2, the value equation in India is truly about capability and not about cost, said Mr Sankalp Saxena, Managing Director, i2 India. i2 has over 1,000 people in India delivering development, implementation, support and mass customisation. "Strategically we are going to do more mass customisations", said Mr Sidhu, adding that most of that wouldl happen from the India operations. "i2 plans to tap the Indian steel and oil industries — we can effect considerable cost savings for our customers in their supply chain management", said Mr Sidhu, adding that the company currently had 15 customers in India. There was a growing interest in end-to-end supply chain optimisation solutions and i2 India would be delivering a large part of these solutions to our customers in India, said Mr Saxena. About 60 per cent of the capacity and throughput of i2 now came from India, said Mr Sidhu, adding that this could increase. Asian Paints, Raymonds, Escorts, Maruti and Indian Oil are clients of i2.
