Microland Featured in 2012 Global Services 100 List

Microland Limited, leading IT infrastructure services provider, today announced its recognition as a "Top Global Infrastructure Management Vendor" by Global Services 100. Microland has also been named in the "2012 Global Services 100: Defining Leadership in Global IT and Business Process Outsourcing" list.

The Global Services 100, now in its seventh year, is a tool for buyers of business and technology services to identify and select the right vendor. The study is done under the guidance of Neogroup, a globalization advisory firm. Service providers opt-in to participate in the study that is conducted online. The GS100 analytical model is based on four key criteria: performance and leadership, quality and maturity of customers, breadth of services offered, and spread of global delivery capabilities.

Commenting on the recognition, Pradeep Kar, Chairman & Managing Director, Microland said, "Microland has successfully upheld the high standards of service excellence and innovation expected by our clients even during a grueling period as last year. Microland witnessed tremendous growth in the past year in annuity deals and the current Global Services 100 recognition is a testament of the same."

"The global service provider landscape is increasingly getting complex; but buyers are looking at vendors with scale, skill, or both in delivering business outcomes and not cost-savings alone. The companies on the Global Services 100 list have demonstrated their ability to deliver complex solutions and services, manage global customers, and sustain successful financial performance," said Ed Nair, Editor, Global Services.
