Accenture has located a new delivery center here, near India’s capital city of Delhi. Besides serving the company’s global customers, the new facility will address growing demand within India for its services, according to the company.
Gurgaon and Noida, also near Delhi, are part of the National Capital Region (NCR), which is a booming center for software development, call centers and business process outsourcing.
Accenture is recruiting staff from the NCR for the new facility, which has a capacity of 1,100 seats. It will also offer opportunities for experienced Accenture professionals across levels and technology specialties to relocate to Gurgaon, the company said.
It is Accenture's 10th facility in India. The company’s other nine facilities are spread across five cities — Bangalore, Chennai, Hyderabad, Mumbai and Pune. The company has increased its staff significantly in India during the past four years from less than 4,000 in 2003 to nearly 20,000. These staff service over 200 Accenture customers.
Accenture announced earlier this year that it has set up a lab in Bangalore, India, that will focus on R&D in the areas of systems integration and software engineering.
The company’s new services delivery center in Gurgaon will provide application, infrastructure outsourcing and systems integration services, the company said.
