Launches High-Decibel Multi-Media, Multi-Million Dollar Campaign in North
America
FREMONT, Calif., 2012-11-21 09:20 CET (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --
iGATE (Nasdaq:IGTE), the first integrated technology and operations company
providing Business Outcomes-based solutions, today announced an aggressive
campaign to take on the dated-yet-prevalent 'Time&Materials' (T&M)
outsourcing model used by majority of the IT Services companies globally. This
multi-media and multi-million dollar campaign is targeted at mega corporations
in key global markets such as North America in order to shift the outsourcing
model from an 'efforts' based model to a strategic 'results' based approach.

The T&M outsourcing model, used primarily since the onset of the IT industry,
comprises of billing clients based on hourly efforts provided by vendors. iGATE
aims to dispel the model with its Business Outcomes proposition enabled by its
proprietary iTOPS (Integrated Technology and Operations) platform.
Phaneesh Murthy, CEO, iGATE said, 'The old model of IT vendors getting paid on
a flawed metric of effort without any risk being shared, is dying in today's
times. Corporations are now moving away from the T&M model that has curbed
innovation in the IT industry.'
Through its campaign, iGATE will target several forms of media highlighting the
need for corporations to shift to the Business Outcomes way of working with its
partners.
About Business Outcomes
iGATE's industry-first Business Outcomes-based approach focuses on the
realization of tangible and measurable results, unlike traditional models which
are driven by work, effort, time and manpower. By integrating technology and
processes in a proprietary way and pricing services on results, iGATE exchanges
fixed costs for a variable cost structure in an attempt to get clients to 'pay
for results only' while enabling them to adjust to the peaks and valleys of
their demand.
