INTERVIEW “I want to foster a digital culture in the organization” Mandar Marulkar, CIO & CDO, KPIT Technologies, talks to Sachin Nandkishor Mhashilkar on his new digital role and what it entails 38 CIO&LEADER | July 2017
Mandar Marulkar, KPIT Technologies Interview ‘‘With the pace at which digitization is taking place, it is important to ensure all your employees are enabled - both from a cultural and skill-set point of view’’ –Mandar Marulkar CIO & CDO, KPIT Technologies According to you, what are some of the scenarios that are likely to impact your industry by 2020? Companies are upgrading their IT infrastructure to support IoT in the future. When we talk about 20 billion devices in 2020, they will generate a huge amount of data and that’s where professional services will be expected to churn out data and come up with relevant business use cases. In such a scenario, creating a platform that will enable interactions between producers and consumers and monetizing the data will be extremely important. What are some of your key priorities for 2020? From an automation perspective, embedding programmability into the infrastructure and integrating the software-defined with your core IT infrastructure will give birth to a true DevOps culture. The next priority will be moving on from the monolithic application stack and the waterfall methodology to application development. It is also important to understand the next generation threats and build the overall holistic cyber security platform, not only to protect your business applications and typical IT stack but to secure the OT infrastructure, especially as billions of devices now generate data from an OT perspective and that needs to be integrated with IT. The other area will be to build a digital culture in your organization. With the pace at which digitization is taking place, it is important to ensure all your employees are enabled -both from a cultural and skill-set point of view - in order to grab the challenge of 2020 and provide innovative solutions to the industry. How will the rapid evolution of technology impact your industry in the year 2020? It is very difficult for any organization to cope up with the rapid pace of innovation happening around the world. Lot of disruption is taking place in start-ups and companies you didn't know about or didn't exist until today. So we need to ensure that workload migration from on-premise to public cloud is secure and cost-effective. What are your personal goals for the year 2020? I’m getting into a new role of a Chief Digital Officer (CDO) and I’m expected to showcase our internal innovations to customers. Also, I want to create a digital culture in our organization, for the leadership as well as millennials, who join the company. July 2017 | CIO&LEADER 39
