Perot Systems expands engineering services capabilities with new office in Hyderabad, India

Hyderabad – Perot Systems Corporation (NYSE: PER) has announced the expansion of its engineering-services capabilities with the opening of a nearly 24,000-square-foot facility in Hyderabad, India.

The new facility marks the company’s sixth major office in India and is part of Perot Systems’ global delivery network, which links IT services and business-process specialists in the United States, Asia Pacific, EMEA (Europe, Middle East and Africa), and Latin America. The Hyderabad-based team delivers a variety of engineering services including heavy equipment design and analysis, as well as engineering change management and manufacturing support.

Steve Curts, President of Perot Systems Commercial Solutions group, said “As with our engineering-services delivery centers in the U.S., the Hyderabad office will use benchmark methodologies that would help our clients bring new products to market more quickly through accelerated product-development cycles.”

The Hyderabad facility is deployed in a newly refurbished space in the Silicon Towers at Hi-tech City. The office can accommodate up to over 250 associates. Set up in just two months from planning to execution, the facility provides a state-of-the-art working environment that is client-friendly and secure.

“Our Hyderabad facility can support clients anywhere in the world, and it also will enhance our business development activities with India-based companies,” said Anurag Jain, President of Perot Systems Applications and Process Solutions group and managing director for the company’s Asia Pacific region. “With access to a well-qualified engineering workforce, this facility will provide strong leadership and world-class services to our clients.”
