Fujitsu Expands Global Footprint – Celebrates Inauguration of 2nd Development Centre in Noida, 4th in India

New Fujitsu Consulting Development Center Strategically Located to Respond to Increasing Client Demand for Quality Offshore Delivery and to Attract Top Local Talent

New Delhi, India, October 8, 2007 — Fujitsu Consulting India Ltd, today announced the official inauguration of its new offshore development centre in Noida, its 4th in India since the launch of its operations in 2001. The new centre underpins Fujitsu Consulting’s commitment to developing its operations in India business. Attending the inauguration ceremonies at the new facility were Mr. John T Rose, President & CEO, Fujitsu Consulting, Mr. Ron Mitchell, Executive Vice President, Fujitsu Consulting, Mr. Jitendra Tanna, Vice President, Fujitsu Consulting India

This new facility is a strategic initiative to support a growing global client base and an increasing demand for hybrid global delivery services. Fujitsu Consulting’s global delivery model combines the responsiveness and intimacy of client-site program and project management services with the value and quality of India-based development and delivery services.

The company plans to add service capability related to Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) from its operations in India. This represents a new competency that it has added as a result of its recently announced acquisition of OKERE, Inc., a New York City-based consulting and IT services company that serves enterprise-scale clients with CRM solutions based on SaaS delivery model.

This USD 10 million facility has approximately 100,000 square feet of office space with a capacity to seat upto 1200 staff in a modern, efficient and stylish setting. The new center will enable the company to expand its professional staff and respond to increased demand for software application development and implementations, quality assurance and sales support services for clients in India, the United States, Canada, Europe, Japan, Australia, New Zealand and other Asia-Pacific markets. With the addition of this new facility in Noida, the company now has more than 220,000 square feet of office space in four locations throughout the country with plans for an additional 100,000 square feet over the next 12 months.

Speaking on the occasion, Mr. John T Rose, President & CEO, Fujitsu Consulting, said “The opening of this new office will substantially improve our ability to deliver industry-leading services to clients anywhere in the world. We will also be able to attract top talent from among a large pool of well qualified software professionals offering interesting and challenging work, advanced career development and a great working environment. The new Noida facility now gives us the enhanced opportunity to attract the required talent within Northern region and support our global clients.”

Mr. Jitendra Tanna, Vice President, Fujitsu Consulting India Ltd added “Given the positive response from existing clients and our expansion into new markets and service lines, scaling up the company's footprint here in Noida is a natural step to increased service capacity and broader market reach. Based on the world-class performance levels that our employees in India have achieved so far, I'm confident that the skills, experience and commitment of our new team in Noida will significantly contribute to accelerating our growth.”

With Fujitsu Consulting’s continuous expansion plans, the company intends to invest an additional USD 10 Million in India towards infrastructure and resources within the next 18 months. By 2009 Fujitsu Consulting India expects more than 100 percent growth in its employee base in India.
