QAI in diversification mode
The Times Of India, March 4, 2002
BANGALORE: Top software quality process consultant QAI is diversifying its educational and
consultancy services and assessment practices in the coming year.
In Bangalore to attend the SEPGSM Conference, the largest gathering of the software process improvement community, QAI Limited Chief Executive Officer Navyug
Mohnot said, "QAI has an e-learning project coming up, where all the training material we gathered down the years will go into creating an e-school. Only QAI has the IP and the content to create courses of this sort. We will invest Rs 2 crore in the first year and based on the feedback, we will ramp it up. Investments in overseas subsidiaries as well as new offices within India and joint ventures will see another Rs 2.5 crore in investments.
Incidentally, the business we are in is not very capital intensive."
"We plan to leverage the customers and goodwill we have gathered in the last three years and go beyond being a upscale, boutique
organisation. It's now a question of going higher up the value chain by facilitating
quality software development and growing QAI by taking Indian high-maturity practices to the rest of the world," Mohnot said. QAI started a
wholly owned subsidiary in Singapore last year and is currently taking the SEPGSM conference to five APAC countries.
