2. HCL Outlines Its Cloud Computing Achievements
"Its client base extends from the enterprise segment to technology vendors. For technology vendors, the
company assists in servicing the clients of its clients. The SAP cloud offering is unusual and competing
services are only offered by 2 U.S. headquartered vendors and half a dozen European IT services
vendors."
HCL Technologies has recently outlined key contracts for its cloud computing offering. The company has been involved in
building and sometimes operating private clouds for technology vendors and ISVs, combining its product engineering,
application and IT infrastructure outsourcing capabilities. The company has been involved depending on the client from the business
and IT strategy phase to the project delivery.
The range of services that the company has provided is wide: it has been involved in redesigning the internal
infrastructure of several ISVs or helping with the software product strategies of its clients to external clients that include
first-tier ISVs and technology vendors with headquarters in the U.S. and in Europe and others.
For a U.S. Fortune 1000 ISV: HCL has been involved in several initiatives including simplifying the application
architecture of its internal ERP applications, upgrading SAP applications and supporting servers. As part of the SAP server
transformation, HCL Technologies has migrated the physical servers from a competitor's datacenter into its own in
Georgia and virtualized those to build a private cloud for the production environment. The company established a back
up site to Sungard that is used for testing environments. The client favored building a private cloud rather than using
public cloud services for several reasons including its requirement to provide a recovery within 15 minutes. HCL has
however wherever possible aimed to share select elements e.g. networks and managed security among several clients.
For a Europe-based Fortune 500 ISV: HCL has helped design the client's strategy for its midmarket clients. The client's
mid-market SaaS-like offering includes the license cost and the underlying maintenance & support, help desk and
hosting services. The application is however single-tenant. A key challenge for HCL has been to keep IT costs under
control to enable the SaaS offering of SAP to be profitable. The service is available for demo, trial and production for a
fixed price per user per month.

4. HCL acknowledged as an experience partner
for Virtualization services
HCL has been positioned as a “premier full-service infrastructure service providers. HCL Technologies'
virtualization offerings are particularly suited to large companies looking for an experienced partner,
existing outsourcing clients and clients who may wish to outsource their environment after
virtualization.”
―From its legacy of building and operating a high-availability, high-response time infrastructure, HCL Technologies has
developed into one of the premier full-service infrastructure service providers. Its virtualization credentials include
engagements with more than 25 Fortune 500 and Global 1000 customers, a global system integration partnership with
VMware and partnerships with Microsoft, Cisco, EMC, Hitachi Data Systems and Sun Microsystems, and a team of more than
150 virtualization professionals supported by 300 other infrastructure implementation specialists on a worldwide basis.
While HCL Technologies offers traditional consulting services to virtualize servers, storage, networks and desktops, it started
offering in January 2009 a unified virtualization as a service (UVaaS) offering, providing network, storage, server and desktop
virtualization. In this offering, HCL Technologies takes over a client's hardware assets, virtualizes them and "rents" them back
to the client on a per-month, per-virtual instance basis. For clients, this means no capital expenditure (capex) investments and
no upfront investments on licenses. It also offers "Business Ready with Virtual Infrastructure Utility" for specific applications,
such as SAP. To date, it has implemented more than 100 licenses. Clients can pick among three productized service packs:
basic, gold and platinum, depending on the level of services needed. Pricing is dependent on the number of servers virtualized.
As an example, a basic service pack starts at $35 per virtual machine per month.
HCL Technologies' virtualization offerings are particularly suited to large companies looking for an experienced partner,
existing outsourcing clients and clients who may wish to outsource their environment after virtualization. Client feedback
indicates that HCL Technologies is particularly flexible as a partner, has the experience and capability to help clients avoid
pitfalls in their virtualization journey and is willing to invest in clients by performing upfront work, such as planning and
justification on "their own nickel.‖

7. Gartner Recognizes HCL Capabilities in M&E
— HCL has transitioned from being a niche provider to a Tier 1 provider with end-to end services and
solutions to the M&E industry. The recent acquisition of Axon provides HCL with a stronger SAP practice. HCL's
demonstration to the market of their emphasis on "employee first" carries to client engagements in which issue
resolution and responsiveness, together with a proactive stance on innovative thinking, is apparent. The culture of
trust, transparency and flexibility has created a strong partnership with its client base.
Marketing Strategy — HCL provides consulting, infrastructure outsourcing, application
outsourcing, BPO, quality assurance (QA) testing, and product engineering support services. HCL has an "ASSeT"
transition methodology designed to reduce transition time and risk through reusable accelerators. HCL is focused on
building domain-specific solutions to a "microverticalized" approach. Its strategy is to become an end-to-end provider
with unified service offerings to address content, communications, and services synergies for convergence. HCL invests
significantly in industry-specific solution developments, such as Content 2.0 (a network publishing platform for new
age publishers), digital rights management, an "Integrated Media Platform for Asset-Centered Transformation"
(IMPACT), which is a digital asset management solution framework, digital TV, social-networking platform (open-
source-based), a gaming converter protocol, and multichannel server-based gaming.
HCL Competes — HCL looks at the market from the media executive perspective and projects ahead to future
trends and issues that will impact the business. It invests to mitigate risks for the clients' benefit. HCL suggests
solution innovation throughout the engagement via a "value creation" portal in which there is transparency and
communication of new idea exchanges between the client partner and the project team. HCL differentiates itself from
the market with its outcome-based commercial models in which there is a shared-risk/shared-reward deal structure
and it seeks to identify potential new revenue opportunities for its clients. HCL, for the past year, has been focusing on
the concept of business-aligned IT. It has been in discussions with customers to educate them on the need to align IT
with business imperatives and make technology-related decisions, keeping in mind the business domain, technology
and operations. Additionally, HCL differentiates itself from other Tier 1 vendors through its "Total IT Outsourcing"
solution, which requires an examination at all aspects of HCL's customers' IT landscape and associated costs, by
leveraging its strengths in three service areas: applications, infrastructure and business processes.

Management Contract by Xerox
April 15, 2009
HCL Technologies has announced its award by Xerox of a 6-year contract to manage 9 Xerox mid-range
regional datacenters in the U.S. and Europe, in a deal valued at $100m.
Services to be provided by HCL include
 Data center hosting and migration, virtualization, consolidation and storage architecture services
 Architecture and consulting services for new technology and system design, adoption and lifecycle improvement

HCL will use its Business Service Management process to centralize and standardize Xerox's data center
infrastructure.
It was no surprise that Xerox moved away from EDS, now an HP company. It is not yet clear what Xerox
intends to do with the end-user workplace services it also outsourced to EDS in a contract extended in April

March 31, 2009, under U.S. GAAP of $564.4m up 18.2% y-o-y, and up 11.3%
sequentially. In constant currency y-o-y growth was 27.4% and sequential growth
was 12.9%.
• Excluding the benefit of the Axon acquisition, the key growth areas during the
quarter were EAS and infrastructure services.
• Axon contributed $75m revenues in fiscal Q3.
• Nelson Hall says ―while the market demand for SAP project-based services is still
very soft, Axon will ultimately benefit from HCL's offshore capabilities and broader
geographic presence, and HCL is targeting opportunities to offer adjacent IT
services to Axon's client base. In particular, Axon brings relationships in the E&U
sector in the U.S. and the U.K. public sector.”

20. “HCL Has Emerged As A Vendor To Watch”- Gartner
04-Mar-2009
HCL has been investing in utility-type offerings for IT infrastructure for more than five years.
HCL actually has three distinct offerings and several more in development. These include:
HCL's Business Ready Infrastructure (BRI) offering

HCL's offerings can be categorized as an IU with a degree of maturity along Level 3, as defined by the
Gartner IU Maturity Model (IUMM).
Gartner believes that the most-positive attributes of these offerings include:
The clarity of the target market definition by size and scope of each client base
The degree of standardization of infrastructure services, the SLA structure and the pricing model
Offshore capabilities
HCL's flexibility and willingness to deviate from the core IU solution as large, complex clients chose to

for its Fiscal 2nd Quarter-2009
AMR says the acquisition of Axon Global still looks like a smart move; otherwise enterprise application

income would have been up nearly 28%.

including specific actions that make the company‘s financial activities more transparent.

26. HCL playing the game differently - Tech Market
View
HCL is being highly appreciated on the increased level of financial transparency and a “full and frank”
disclosure of every financial services institution around the world where they have deposited cash and
bonds.
HCL won $ 1 bn new order in the last quarter the largest being the $350m/7 years with a ‗worldwide
publishing company‘ for a major Oracle project including infrastructure management (IM). 64% of the H1
deals that HCL won were against global majors.
Since the acquisition of Axon, the new HCL-AXON business has won four new deals, have not lost a single
client and no Axon work has moved offshore. In the current quarter the revenue is expected to be $95m
(say £70m).
The HCL-Axon could look a very attractive offer, at least in the UK and US – a premium onshore front-end
with an established Indian back-end.
With LFS, HCL is trying to move into ‗platform BPO‘, and Life & Pensions is a hot market in the UK but
finding that (re)building the processing platform a lot harder than expected as with TCS.
HCL is becoming an ever more interesting player to watch, especially in the UK. Being under half the size
of the TCS, Infosys and Wipro by worldwide revenues and with rather lower margins, it is playing the
game differently.

Dana Stiffler, Robert Bois
HCL‘s main play in the SaaS ecosystem
today is enabling product engineering and
support services for ISVs. It has provided
these types of services for years to software
vendors, through the switch from mainframe
to client-server, from client-server to web,
and from on-premise to SaaS
HCL‘s traditional infrastructure expertise is a
boon in these engagements, where the goal
is to engineer a smaller footprint that‘s more
compatible with on-demand computing and
today‘s smaller data centers

39. Ovum sees HCL as a strong contender in Europe
 HCL is a company that works very hard to differentiate itself from the pack of Indian outsourcers
 HCL has very healthy growth and profitability indicators, which put it in a good position to expand and
invest in new capabilities, geographies and verticals
 HCL has a much more balanced service line portfolio compared with its Indian peers, with much
stronger infrastructure and BPO service lines.
 HCL positions itself away from commodity ADM work and into higher-value ‗transformational‘
outsourcing
 HCL is a leader in its peer group in terms of offshore RIM services, and is well placed to pick up
expected growth in demand for these services

40. Ovum recognizes HCL‟ s position in the European
RIM Market
 HCL has made a notable impact on the European RIM markets (particularly in the UK) in recent years
 HCL‘s current aim is to move beyond this and into infrastructure and business process services as part of
an ongoing strategy to sustain growth rates, and achieve deeper customer penetration
 growth rates in infrastructure management are significantly ahead of broader market growth
 The current market demands suppliers to be flexible in how they engage and work with in-house IT
teams
 For example, HCL uses its ‗co-sourcing‘ model to emphasis its position as a collaborator
40

41. HCL‟ s value framework and methodology makes
waves
Adding business value for customers is an increasingly important focus of the
service provider industry
HCL has defined the concept of a ‗value framework‘, which is used to model not only
the context of the service provider and customer within the service delivery
relationship, but also the high-level context of the customer‘s business with external
parties
HCL‘s framework recognizes that either or both parties in the service delivery
relationship can be beneficiaries of particular measures to add value
Its case studies from one prominent customer in the financial services sector show
that HCL conceived changes to business processes, and the underlying technology
that delivers savings of over US$850,000 annually, without additional contractual
costs
