CUSTOMER AT THE CORE: HELPING OUR CUSTOMERS TO DO BUSINESS


BETTER" The world has entered the age of Customer Experience. Smart consumers
employing technology expect businesses to create and deliver customer centric services and
products. In this age of information, we need to be agile to stay relevant, aware, omnipresent and
flexible. At the same time, costs must be contained and existing efficient processes needs to be
leveraged upon. This means that we need to relook at every business in detail and remodel the
entire business. Business models revolve around the customer centric approach, and on the other
hand stakeholders must also be satisfied. We believe that the two mantras of Differentiating at the
Front and Standardizing at the core are absolutely essential to exploit the benefits of technology.
Over the last few quarters, we have focused on building Intellectual Property solutions to help our
customers significantly in their businesses.

Strategy:
Industries around the world are witnessing significant transformations in their Technological
landscape and model of business.
1. Evolving Client Business Models The IT spend mix is changing. Investments in 'Change'
programs are on the increase and others are funded through the 'Run' business. The investments are
required to be end-user conscious and more business focused. Today's Service Providers are
required to address wide mixed needs of the clients.
2. Changing Technology Landscape It is predicted that over 65% of IT organizations will move
to Hybrid Cloud technologies before 2016. This means that new set of businesses are created to
partner with the clients. There will be need for analytics and insights because by 2020 the number of
connected devices will be 25 Billion.
3. Need for newer Models of Service Delivery Clients nowadays seek integrated services and
solutions implying the need for IT service providers to adopt newer delivery constructs.

Wipro Proprietary Information Page 2


RFI response
4. The Digital Opportunity We also need to go digital as a significant amount of business around
80% will go digital. Thus investing in IoT, Cloud, Big data Analytics and mobility is need of the
hour.
Driving Leadership and differentiation through our employees:
We believe that employees are the backbone of our organization and thus a key differentiating factor
in the industry. Hence we are committed to recruit and train highly skilled employees and leaders.
Our main motto is to develop strong leaders who are visionaries in their respective fields with self-
led teams who are highly motivated towards delivering quality services for their clients.

The below chart showing revenue distribution also displays the several business units and service
lines in our operations. Around 29.2% of our revenues come from application development and
outsourcing i.e. the Business Applications Services (BAS).

1.4 Quality and Customer Satisfaction Programs

Customer satisfaction:
Wipro Ltd. is ranked among the top service providers in the Nordic IT Outsourcing Study,2015,
an annual study on IT outsourcing and IT services conducted by White lane Research and PA
Consulting group. Wipro received 80% overall customer satisfaction score from its customers,
which is higher than the supposed average score of 72% for other service providers.
We are positioned above industry average on several of the Key Performance Indices (KPIs). Our
Wipro Proprietary Information Page 5
RFI response
performance is better in the areas of managing accounts, being proactive and flexible than most of
our competitors. We were ranked second best in 'Flexibility', with a Cu sat score of 83%, higher
than 66% the average score for other companies. We also ranked second in 'Proactive' service
provider. From an 'Account Management' perspective, Wipro was ranked number three, with a
customer satisfaction score of 83%.
Wipro concentrates on Client engagement strategy and leveraging ecosystem alliances.

CMMI:
We have been appraised at Capability Maturity Model Integration CMMI-DEV 1.3 Level 5. This
would validate our process capability based on the CMMI standards which measure process
improvements.
Our organization is performing at an optimizing level and this assessment at maturity Level 5
indicates the very same fact. At this level, we improve our processes continually based on our
understanding of performance needs and business objectives. At Wipro, we have used CMMI
Level 5 processes to achieve profitability, customer satisfaction, thereby enabling growth. We are
aiming for reaching the next level by mid next year and ensuring all processes to follow our
protocols to reach that.

Agile:
Unlike the past where we concentrated on one skill and leveraging only our core competency,
recently we are open to new and multiple skills. To name a few are three of our new programmes
- ACME (All-round Capability Model of Excellence), Upscale and Cutting Edge meant to achieve
exactly that.
(ACME) has five dimensions:
Technology, domain, functional areas, quality processes (especially agile methods) and
behavioural skills.
Companies today can no longer start with a fixed set of capabilities and then try to leverage on
them. We need to achieve agility all round. Hence to achieve that we are turning the tables over
and starting with innovation and entering into emerging needs of clients which would need us to
enhance our business processes.

At Wipro Technologies, Systems analysis constitutes the following steps:


The development of a feasibility study: determining whether a project is economically, socially,
technologically and organizationally feasible
Fact-finding measures, designed to ascertain the requirements of the system's end-users (typically
involving interviews, questionnaires, or visual observations of work on the existing system)
Gauging how the end-users would operate the system (in terms of general experience in using computer
hardware or software), what the system would be used for and so on.
At Wipro Technologies, we believe, systems analysis is a precursor to produce the perfect model of the
computer-based information system, we intend to provide and support. Keeping this in mind, we have divided
the entire systems analysis stage into 5 phases:
Scope Definition: denoting an instrument for observing, viewing, or examining
Problem analysis: analyzing the problem that arises
Requirements analysis: determining the conditions that need to be met
Logical design: looking at the logical relationship among the objects
Decision analysis: making a final decision
Data Flow Diagrams, Structure Charts, HIPO (Hierarchical Input Process Output), Pseudo-code and Use cases
are widely used systems analysis tools at Wipro Technologies for identifying and expressing the functional

Wipro Proprietary Information Page 15


RFI response
requirements of a system.
1) Proposal Development:

Wipro Technologies has an inbuilt strategic engagement team (SET), which is responsible not just for proposal
development, but also for understanding complex new-age business problems faced by clients and suggesting
solutions that are best suited to the customer. Typically, members of this key team have expertise in areas such as
consulting.

2) System Development:

At Wipro Technologies, we have incorporated the use of the Agile (SCRUM) methodology and framework for
System Development. With this incremental model, system is developed in incremental, rapid cycles. This results
in small incremental releases with each release building on previous functionality. Each release is
thoroughly tested to ensure software quality is maintained. Even late changes in requirements are welcome.

3) Project Management:

At Wipro Technologies, Project management includes overseeing projects for software development, hardware
installations, network upgrades, cloud computing and virtualization rollouts, business analytics and data
management projects and implementing IT services.

The following five process groups comprise the project management life cycle at Wipro Technologies. The
specific phases within a project, however, are unique to each project and represent the project life cycle.

Initiation the project goal, need or problem is identified. The project manager is assigned to the project
and the project charter is created.

Planning the project manager and the project team work together to plan all of the needed steps to
reach a successful project conclusion. The project planning processes are iterative in nature and its expected
that planning will happen often throughout the project.

Execution once the project plan has been created, the project team goes about executing the project
plan to create the deliverables of the project. The project can shift to project planning as needed throughout
project execution.

Monitoring and controlling as the project is being executed by the project team, the project manager
monitors and controls the work for time, cost, scope, quality, risk, and other factors of the project.

Wipro Proprietary Information Page 16


RFI response
Monitoring and controlling is also an ongoing process to ensure that the project addresses its targets for each
project objective.

Closing at the end of each phase and at the end of the entire project, project closure happens to ensure
that all of the work has been completed, is approved, and ultimately transferred ownership from the project
team to operations.

4) Technical Documentation:

At Wipro Technologies, it is important for the code documents associated with the source code (which may
include README files and API documentation) to be thorough, but not so verbose that it becomes overly
time-consuming or difficult to maintain them. From our point of view, Technical documentation is important
as the basic and advanced level of information may change over a period of time with architecture changes.
Tools such as Doxygen, NDoc, javadoc, EiffelStudio, Sandcastle, ROBODoc, POD, TwinText, or Universal
Report are used to auto-generate the code documentsthat is, they extract the comments and software
contracts, where available, from the source code and create reference manuals in such forms as text
or HTML files.

5) Application Integration:

At Wipro Technologies, we use Enterprise application integration (EAI) which is an integration framework
composed of a collection of technologies and services which form a middleware to enable integration of
systems and applications across an enterprise.

EAI focuses on the integration of both business-level processes and data, whereas the traditional
middleware approach is data oriented.

EAI includes the notion of reuse as well as distribution of business processes and data.

EAI tools allow users who understand very little about the details of the applications to integrate the
applications.

6) Transition to Production/Support:
At Wipro Technologies, a production support person/team is responsible for receiving incidents and
requests from end-users, analyzing these and either responding to the end user with a solution or
escalating it to the other IT teams. These teams may include developers, system engineers and database
administrators. We have efficient teams dedicated for the transition to production/support.

Wipro Proprietary Information Page 17


RFI response

7) Customer Documentation:

At Wipro Technologies, customer documentation includes the following:


Contents of the distribution

Document completely the contents of your distribution, for example, the parts of WebLogic Server
that are included: WebLogic Server, Web server plug-ins, BEA JRockit, maintenance patches, and
so on. Store the version numbers of WebLogic Server and any relevant components in several easy-
to-find locations. (When a customer needs to contact a support organization, having multiple
records of the relevant version numbers for the software can be helpful.)

Support and license information

Describe completely the terms of the support and license provided with your product, and the
warranty. Identify who your customers should contact, or what Web site they should use, if they
need to use support services. Distinguish between the support you provide, versus that provided by
BEA.

If your customers need to periodically apply BEA-provided maintenance patches to the embedded
WebLogic Server software, explain to customers how to obtain and apply those patches.

Installation

Document the installation application for your product, even if WebLogic Server is installed and
configured in silent mode. Describe every step the customer needs to take, such as how to
download the distribution from the internet, how to identify the appropriate CD from a physical
container, and how the customer chooses an item from the Start menu (if a Windows product).

Read-first documents

Include, and identify plainly, any documentation that customers need to read before they install or
use your product. Typically this information includes hardware and software prerequisites, memory
and disk space requirements, and other resources that the customer will need to install or use. If
applicable, this document should include any usage restrictions, or possibly any known problems
that customers should know about.

User documentation

This may be self-evident, but be sure to include comprehensive instructions and reference
information for product use. For example, state clearly how to start and run your custom software.

3.5 Standard Tools and Methodology

i. Requirements definition

A progressive approach of elaboration is used for requirements definition. It starts with high-
level definition of the scope to set the limits for areas within the company that are expected to
change. Then, the scope statement is expanded by identifying the needs and the exact business
requirements. Lastly, the team transforms the business requirements into technical requirements
which can be implemented to provide solutions satisfying the project needs. Tools like
Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) are used to record requirement and track changes.

ii. Design
Design usually contains a comprehensive description of the overall architecture which includes
frameworks, databases and hardware. In addition to this it also has information about
Application Programming Interfaces. Rational Unified Process is used for to facilitate this
process.

iii. Data Modeling


Conceptual data models or domain models, are typically used to explore domain concepts with
project stakeholders. On Agile teams high-level conceptual models are created as part of initial
requirements envisioning efforts as they are used to explore the high-level static business
structures and concepts. On traditional and conventional teams these data models are often
created as the forerunner or alternative to LDMs. Oracle SQL Developer Data Modeler is used
here

iv. Construction/ Implementation


Implementation is carried out in phases for all projects. This guarantees that the projects
conform to the planned schedule and the budget. The main ingredients for successful
implementation are

Wipro Proprietary Information Page 23


RFI response

v. Testing
Wipro lays an increased emphasis on automation in order to reduce the manual effort involved
in testing, so as to deliver products faster to the client with zero defects.
DVA (Data Validation Automation), sTORM (Statistical Operations Research Matrix Tool),
Easy Automate tools are used for this purpose.

vi. Peer Review Collaboration


Peer review is performed before each piece of code is sent for testing by a developer who is not
involved in the coding. Along with the review unit testing is also performed. Usually the review
is done manually but project-specific tools are sometimes used.

vii. Version Control/ Configuration Management


Configuration management involves maintaining control over project documentation and
deliverables. Key aspects are a configuration and change control board, requirements baseline
control, hardware, software, and documentation configuration control, and subcontractor
configuration management. ALM and IBM Rational Configuration management tools are
employed here.

viii. Project Management


Waterfall and agile are the two most commonly used methodologies. A significant number of
projects are migrating to agile as it leads to efficient practices.

ix. Customer Documentation


Customer documentation for a product includes contents of the package, support and licensing
information, installation information and guidelines for use.

x. Customer Training
Training is provided to customers to efficiently use the product delivered. This is done by
sending Wipro employees to the customers site for an adequate period of time or by means of
video conferencing until the customer gains proficiency in using the tool. Live demo sessions
and Powerpoint presentations are used for used to impart training.

3.7 Metrics

The metrics and formulae for calculating them are mentioned below. The nature of capturing these metrics differs
from project to project based on the technology used.
Schedule Variance:
Provides an indication of how ahead or how behind the schedule the project currently is. It can be
measured using the formula ((Actual Duration - Planned Duration)/Planned Duration)*100
Effort Variance:
Project effort estimates will be done in terms of man-hours.
((Actual Effort Planned Effort)/planned effort) *100
Cost Variance: Earned Value Actual Cost
Cost of Poor Quality

Wipro Proprietary Information Page 27


RFI response
COPQ (annualized) = [Sum of (RPNi x ACRi) / Sum of (RPNi)] x Annual Reduction in Events
ACRi = EHRi x ACHi
Risk Priority Number = Severity x Occurrence x Detection

Where:
ACRi = Average cost to resolve incident i
EHRi = Effort hours to resolve incident i
ACHi = Average cost per hour for incident i
i = 1 to n (n being the total number of failures)

Customer Satisfaction:

We develop survey questionnaires to measure customer satisfaction with the various aspects of a service,
such as the processes followed (for instance, for a warranty), and the quality of service.

We measure satisfaction in these five dimensions:

Reliability Ability to perform the promised service dependably and accurately


Assurance The knowledge, competence and courtesy of our employees and their ability to convey trust
and confidence
Tangibles Physical facilities, equipment and appearances that impress the customer
Empathy The level of caring, individualized attention, access, communication and understanding that the
customer perceives
Responsiveness The willingness displayed to help clients and provide prompt service
The Servqual dimensions are used as the high-level survey categories in a questionnaire.

3.8 Documentation

Application Information Document Provides a detailed coding description about various applications in
the project and the interfacing between the various applications.
High Level Design Document Provides a high level document detailing various components and their
interactions with each other.
