ThoughtWorks Launches Consulting Services in India
Optimising Delivery Organizations with Agile & Lean Techniques

Bangalore, Karnataka, India, Wednesday, May 04, 2011 -- (Business Wire India) -- Global IT consultancy ThoughtWorks, Inc. today announced the launch of its Consulting Services Offering in India. Founded in 1993, ThoughtWorks has consistently improved competitive advantage, innovation and growth for market-leading companies by helping them adopt collaborative and adaptive methods in software development projects globally. Having pioneered advanced methods and tools to overcome problems that beset large scale IT projects, ThoughtWorks' Consulting Services will help share the knowledge it has gained from hundreds of successfully completed projects, and meet both client and market demand in India.

Explaining the rationale behind opening their doors to the Indian market, Preethi Madhu, Head of Consulting Practices - ThoughtWorks India says, "Change like the kind we talk about involves organizations changing their mindsets and leadership styles, while relooking at driving value. These are reflected in the macro trends that we see in the industry, where the focus is on innovations, operational efficiencies, deeper and richer customer relationships, and leadership. At ThoughtWorks, our experience places us in a unique situation to work with leaders and help them understand the scope and impact of the change, while partnering with them in putting the required framework in place and helping to implement the same."

Sudhir Tiwari, Managing Director, ThoughtWorks India adds, "In India, Agile has caught on in a big way over the past couple of years, and most firms are now moving towards embracing these practices. We are uniquely positioned to help organizations in this transformation through our consulting offering based on our experience in this space over the last 10 years, while providing actionable advice based on our delivery expertise."

Despite an increased uptake of Agile and Lean development processes, many Indian companies are still struggling to deliver the highest value features first, thereby missing the opportunity to reduce time to market and eliminate waste. ThoughtWorks has found that many Agile adoption programmes are focused on the wrong priorities when it comes to making critical IT decisions; by re-aligning programme objectives and, where appropriate, making use of the latest innovations in software technology, tools and development practices, organizations can rapidly begin to benefit from Agile and Lean.

ThoughtWorks offers services in five areas, which are shaped to fit each individual client's circumstances. These include:

Optimising IT organizations: Improve delivery capability, innovation and competitive advantage by adopting Agile and Lean principles as well as project and organizational practices.

Technology: Gain strategic insights into existing systems portfolio, architecture, platforms and technologies that can save costs, solve problems or identify risks and issues.

Testing: Rethink and embed testing as a fully integrated part of the software development process to improve quality, predictability and reliability across the IT division.

Experience Design: By creating compelling experiences, ThoughtWorks can help make products stand out in a cluttered landscape and dramatically improve conversion rates.

Continuous Delivery: Striving for shorter release cycles and higher development throughput. Working with organizations to implement an excellent backbone of processes, automation and people that support code promotion from a developer's desktop through to production.
