ANALYSIS OF STRATEGIESCorporate level strategies: Core Strategies:
Global Delivery Model – Producing where it is most cost effective to produce & selling where it is most profitable to sell. Moving up the Value Chain – Getting involved in a software development project at the earliest stage of its life cycle. PSPD Model – “Predictability of Revenues, Sustainability of Revenues, Profitability, De-risking” for risk management.

Moving up the Value Chain – Getting involved in a software development project at the earliest stage of its life cycle. PSPD Model – “Predictability of Revenues, Sustainability of Revenues, Profitability, De-risking” for risk management.
Firm believer in “Organic growth” and acquire only those companies in line with strategic goals.
Actions Taken by Infosys:1. To maintain low-cost advantage they have
opened offices in Czech Republic, Mauritius, Poland, Philippines, Thailand and Mexico.
2. Invested in developing training centers – 3. Improved quality capabilities – CMM level 5i
company. 4. Infosys Consultancy established to provide high
end services in value chain. 5. Has hedged currency for more predictability of
revenues (risk management).
GENERIC STRATEGIES: 1. Low cost Global delivery 24/7 Model.
2. Little differentiation in low-end services of
value chain; high differentiation in high end
services of value chain like software products
and package solutions.
3. Focus on quality, customer relationship
management, timely-delivery.
MARKET PENETRATION STRATEGY: Current Markets: USA and Europe Current Products: ADM, BPO, KPO, consultancy services (in
BFSI, manufacturing and retail) and software products (financial products).
Recommendation: As most large clients in US and Europe are cutting costs, Infosys needs to be more aggressive on cost and quality front.
Result of strategy: Unlikely to yield good results
MARKET DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY: New Market: India, Middle-east and Australia Current Product: BPO, KPO, consultancy services (in BFSI,
manufacturing and retail) and software products (financial products).
Recommendation: Since these are fast developing IT market, Infosys needs a paradigm shift in focus from US and EU markets to these markets.
Result of strategy: Likely to yield good result.
PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY: Current Market: USA and Europe New Product: Consultancy and package
implementation services in relatively growing sectors esp. healthcare, life sciences and aviation sector, and KPO services.
Recommendation: Concentrate on building expertise in these domains by strategic acquisitions.
Result of Strategy: Likely to have good result. (better the company acquired, the better the result).
DIVERSIFICATION:New Market: India, Middle-east and Australia New product: Consultancy and package
implementation services in relatively growing sectors esp. healthcare, life sciences and aviation sector, and KPO services.
Recommendation: Changing Brand image from low value service provider to high value service provider.
Result of Strategy: Difficult to achieve overnight (possible in long term)
OTHER STRATEGIES:CONCENTRATION:
90% of Infosys revenues from American and European nations.
VERTICAL INTEGRATION: Infosys recently made a bid to acquire a European major –
Axon consultancy to improve its business in European markets, but finally called off the deal due to high valuation. Otherwise, Infosys has always believed in organic growth.
INNOVATION: The Software Engineering and Technology Labs (SETLabs) at Infosys is the center for applied technology research in software engineering and enterprise technology. SETLabs conducted 24 Innovation Workshops with customers from the US and Australia, to identify research collaboration possibilities. Infosys promotes a favorable work environment that encourages innovation and meritocracy.
