Cummins Group India has launched its first IT Global Competency Centre (GCC), aiming to house software engineers, product owners, architects, technology leads, and process experts to drive innovation in various sectors.

Cummins Group in India, one of the leading power solutions technology providers, opened its first IT Global Competency Centre (GCC) at its India Office Campus in Balewadi, Pune, Maharashtra. The centre was inaugurated by Earl Newsome, Vice President and Chief Information Officer, Cummins Inc., and Annapurna Vishwanathan, Chief Information Officer, Cummins India, in the presence of other senior Cummins India officials.

The GCC is an integral part of the company’s multi-year IT transformational strategy and will focus on scaling up operational efficiencies and speeding up the time-to-market of its products and services. It will house software engineers, product owners, architects, technology leads, and process experts to drive innovation impacting the automobile, engineering research and development (ER&D), manufacturing, and energy sectors. With 55 percent female employees, the GCC is leading the charge in gender diversity, and strengthening it further across all tech roles will be a key focus area.
