Infosys: Growing Share of Customer Business: Group 1

Infosys is pitching an "end to end solution" project involving consulting expertise and operations to its client Prairie Four Square Insurance (PFS) for an Ariba e-procurement project. Infosys has established credibility as an IT maintenance provider but lacks experience as a solutions provider. Infosys will highlight its evolution from outsourcing to providing end-to-end solutions, showcase past success stories delivering savings for PFS, and argue that sourcing from a single vendor will yield time and cost savings versus competitors who lack maintenance experience. Infosys will provide data on over $14 million in annual savings achieved through prior projects to help win the new project.

Introduction
 Prairie Four Square Insurance (PFS) is a leading insurance company in USA

 Infosys wants to win Ariba e-procurement project of its existing client, PFS

 This is a “end to end solution” project, involving both consulting expertise and day to day

operational excellence

 Infosys has already established its credibility as an excellent IT maintenance service

provider to PFS, but does not have track record as a solution provider

 Infosys is competing with Merrimac and Excalibur Consulting – Amongst top 15

consulting firms but lack experience in IT maintenance

 This project has long term strategic significance for Infosys as success in this project will

help in gaining larger projects with PFS and other customers


Problem Statement
 Infosys now has to figure out a strategy and a communication plan to convince PFS

that it is capable of providing end to end solution for the e-procurement project

Objectives
 Reinforcing the benefits of Infosys’s IT maintenance expertise

 Proving Infosys’s consulting capabilities

 Convincing PFS the entire e-procurement project should go to a single vendor


The Sales Pitch (1/3)
 Highlighting Infosys’s evolution- Briefly describing the four phases of evolution

 First Phase (1980s)- Offshore outsourcing model

 Second Phase (early 1990s)- Maintenance contracts for legacy systems

 Third Phase (late 1990s) – Providing end to end solutions

 Fourth phase (current) – Business domain excellence

 Emphasizing that consulting solution is not new to Infosys and they are doing it a

decade now, since the third phase

 Infosys has surpassed PFS’s expectations in all the three dimensions: quality,

timeliness and reliability


The Sales Pitch(2/3)
 Highlighting Infosys’s real life success stories for PFS:

 Successfully completed five major re-engineering projects

 Data corruption prevention subroutine

 Record comparison algorithm

 Reduction in disability claim reserves

 In each case it has exceeded customer expectations and delivered increased

employee productivity

 Providing data to validate these claims

 Total Savings of $ 14,961,120 annually


The Sales Pitch(3/3)
 Benefits of soul sourcing – Zero knowledge transfer time will translate into huge

saving for PFS (5 programmers * 3 months * $8,000 = $120,000)

 Showing specific steps being taken by Infosys to develop in house consulting talent

pool like hiring well seasoned people from top consulting firms and top MBA

programmes

 Taking advantage of PFS vendor management team visit- showcasing its world

class training facilities, successfully completed JAVA projects and meetings with

employees having consulting experience
