The challenge:Roadblocks to Modernisation

Off the back of a group-wide business review, our client’s India entity kickstarted a significant modernisation to revamp their legacy systems and integrate emerging technologies into their IT ecosystem.

To drive this business-critical initiative, they needed to ramp up their existing team with technical and functional experts who had experience in both legacy and cutting-edge technologies. Solution implementation also needed to be cost-effective without impacting existing business operations. This prompted our client to explore external resourcing alternatives and partner with TEKsystems to bring in the right people at the right time.

Our proposal:Steering in the Right Direction

TEKsystems has been a trusted strategic partner to our client since 2016, deploying 500+ consultants since the commencement of our partnership. We met the technical team and key project stakeholders to understand the core drivers behind this modernisation initiative and scope their specific requirements. We then leveraged our in-depth client knowledge to craft a tailored EVP to attract the high-quality IT talent needed to bring their modernisation roadmap to life.

TEKsystems’ specialised delivery teams conducted rigorous up-front screening of all resources to assess their skills, experience, and interests, and set expectations regarding the work with both legacy and new technologies. This was key to ensure that all resources deployed were the right technical and culture fit, demonstrating strong ownership and a solution-oriented mindset to bring our client’s modernisation initiatives back on track.

Post deployment, our high-touch monthly engagement touchpoints ensured we maximised the satisfaction, performance, and retention of our consultants. We also provided on-the-job training and access to e-learning platforms to upskill our consultants on specific topics – the progress of which was monitored on a biweekly basis by our Technical Project Manager.
