Infosys SWOT analysis

Analysts from Boston Consulting Group and
Technology Partners International (TPI) do a SWOT on Infosys and here's what
they think.

Boston Consulting Group(BCG):

 

STRENGTHS

• 
  They managed to grow from $150 million to $400
  million in revenues. This is a tougher milestone than the $1 billion one
• 
  They are very focused on creating a culture
  and processes, which have become differentiators for the company today

 WEAKNESSES 

• 
  Not doing well enough when it comes to
  innovation beyond process IP

 OPPORTUNITIES

• 
  Should get into more service lines and
  big-ticket deals, R&D and engineering services play and should increase
  their geographical reach

 THREATS

• 
  Global majors are becoming quite big
• 
  They should not ignore or underestimate the
  creativeness and capabilities of MNC competitors

Technology
Partners International

 STRENGTHS

 ·       Â
Excellent project and services execution

·       Â
Excellent internal processes

 WEAKNESSES 

• 
  Reliance on less experienced talent pool for
  lower costs and therefore better financial results. This precludes certain
  types of work
• 
  Over reliance on India as delivery geography,
  has not diversified delivery capability to other offshore locations

OPPORTUNITY

• Extend delivery and process strengths to other
  global locations apart from India
• 
  Massive demand for additional work in all
  areas of services spectrum with many existing contracts now coming up for
  renewal - approx $100 billion in next few years.  Infosys can get a chunk of
  this if they are willing to take on additional delivery risk and become a
  true global player

THREATS

• 
  Extremely high expectations from their
  investor community for growth and profitability. Will be difficult to manage
  this as competition begins to undercut their pricing
• 
  MNCs have come of age in India and other
  offshore destinations. They can and do compete with Infosys from a level
  playing field
