Challenge

Lack of procurement insights due to geographically diverse operations

Our Center of Excellence for Accessibility works on IT solutions for differently-abled individuals, aiding their integration into the workforce. TCS also runs multiple initiatives to help employees grow in their careers, such as CareerHub, a platform that provides them with mentoring services. We also run Inspire, a specialized program that provides fast-track career progression to high-potential employees. Periodic leadership reviews help us maintain a healthy succession pipeline.
