Singapore. As a part of this<br />
engagement, we have<br />
now established a state of<br />
the art Remote<br />
Infrastructure<br />
Management (RIM) centre<br />
in Singapore.<br />
Aspire Business Transformation<br />
Programme - In FY11 we kick started a<br />
business transformation program to<br />
prepare your company for the future. We<br />
also engaged a leading management<br />
consultant to help us program manage<br />
various activities that were identified as<br />
a part of this program. Aspire has<br />
enabled significant success stories for us.<br />
These include efficiencies in the go to<br />
market channel for computing products,<br />
improved credit control, cost reduction<br />
through infrastructure consolidation,<br />
and optimisation of service operations.<br />
These operational efficiencies have<br />
helped us mitigate some of the impact<br />
of adversities in the external<br />
environment, described earlier.<br />
• As we pursue this transformation<br />
journey, we believe the future <strong>HCL</strong><br />
<strong>Infosystems</strong> will emerge with focus<br />
in the following areas:<br />
1. Services. We aim to grow our<br />
B2B and B2C services<br />
businesses. Our services<br />
business will be global and the<br />
share of higher value added<br />
services and Managed Services<br />
will grow multi-fold.<br />
2. Leading Position in Solutions<br />
for Technology enabled<br />
Education<br />
3. Strong Distribution Business<br />
consisting of unmatched reach<br />
in rural and urban markets and<br />
a large portfolio of partnerships<br />
for value added distribution.<br />
4. IT and Office Automation<br />
solutions businesses that<br />
leverage our sales reach, strong<br />
partnerships and with superior<br />
services.<br />
As part of this transformation journey, we<br />
have been assessing various options to<br />
optimize and streamline operations of<br />
our Personal Computing and Tablet<br />
Businesses. We have decided to form a<br />
Wholly Own Subsidiary ("WOS") to hold<br />
the Consumer and SMB PC/Tablet related<br />
businesses (i.e. B2C computing, ECC,<br />
Mobility). This will enable this company<br />
to have a sharper focus, streamline<br />
operations and achieve better<br />
economies of scale in sourcing,<br />
manufacturing and marketing in the<br />
Computing Products business<br />
This arrangement will also enable the SI<br />
& Services businesses to have flexibility<br />
in partnering with a range of OEM<br />
partners, as required by customers. Such<br />
multi-brand partnerships are critical for<br />
growth of our Solutions & Services<br />
businesses.<br />
I. Quality Initiatives<br />
Our Quality management is<br />
committed to adoption of<br />
international best practices and<br />
standards. Our Quality systems<br />
conform to and are certified for<br />
various International standards.<br />

certification<br />
• Software Capability Maturity<br />
Model - CMMI Level 3 (Level 5<br />

This has been further strengthened<br />
through the following certifications<br />

certification by US Green<br />
Building Council<br />

functions within the company.<br />
Quality and process improvement<br />
has also been linked with ongoing<br />
ASPIRE excellence tracks. Various<br />
Cost and Lean improvement<br />
projects have been undertaken as a<br />
part of Aspire program to help<br />
reduce the cost and increase overall<br />
profitability.<br />
Focus on Customer Delight<br />

always been a key focus of your<br />
