The Hindu Business Line : Unisys to have 2 more centres

Unisys Corporation said on Wednesday that it would add two more global sourcing operations centres in India to expand its offshore resources to 6,000 people by 2008. Unisys currently has a development centre in Bangalore, which employs over 1,000 people. Of the planned 6,000 people by 2008, about 4,000 are expected to be located in India.

Unisys is planning its second facility in Bangalore, which will be operational by mid-October, said a company press release. A third facility will be located in Hyderabad and is expected to be operational by second quarter of 2007.

The facilities will enable Unisys tap into a broader talent pool while providing customer service capabilities, such as further backup and disaster recovery solutions for the initial Bangalore facility.

The two new Indian centres would continue Unisys' expansion of its global services capabilities. Earlier this year, the company opened new centres in Budapest, Hungary and Shanghai, China. Unisys opened its first global sourcing operations centre in Bangalore in April 2004.
