Wipro, Diversey win outsourcing award

Market Watch reports.

Wipro and Diversey's award-winning IT transformation project was characterised by certain unique and innovative features. This included the introduction of a new role - the 'value director' - which positions IT as a driver for proactively addressing the business' emerging needs.

The 'value director' is an onsite Wipro executive who works alongside Diversey's chief IT architect and Wipro's CTO to identify system and process solutions to support the business community, Business Wire says.

The implementation of the value director role has allowed Wipro and Diversey to better anticipate future technologies and projects through better staff acquisition and training.

Sys-Con Media quotes Brent Hoag, VP and CIO of Diversey, as saying: "We are honoured to receive this prestigious award. This recognition is the result of extraordinary partnering between Diversey and Wipro, which continues to drive outstanding value for our business and its stakeholders. The applied principles serve as an example for the outsourcing industry.”
