Overview: The client is a complex mix of international investment adviser companies that provide advice, investment products and asset management services to clients worldwide. The decision to outsource part of the subsidiary's IT functions to an offshore company was summarily handed down four years ago and came from the highest levels of the company. The obvious driver: The company would save money by outsourcing, thus enabling it to maintain its stated goal of 15 percent growth in profits a year. Two large IT services firms, both based in India, competed for the outsourcing bid, Polaris Software and TATA Consultancy Service (TCS) Asia-Pacific.
