Global Capability Centers

Your own team in India, without the setup risk.

We set up, run and — if you want — transfer a Global Capability Center to you. Talent, workspace, payroll, compliance and day-to-day operations handled by a partner that has run an engineering hub in India since 2009.

01 / Why a GCC

Scale with control, not a vendor.

01

A team that is yours

Engineers work only for you, on your roadmap, with your tools and culture.

02

Your IP, your processes

Knowledge and intellectual property stay inside your organisation.

03

Long-term cost advantage

Build capacity in India at a sustainable cost as the team grows.

04

Follow-the-sun delivery

Overlapping hours with Europe, North America and Australia.

02 / Models

Three ways to build your center.

01 · Fastest start

Employer of Record

We employ your first engineers in India from day one, so work starts while the long-term structure is decided.

02 · Partner-run

Managed GCC

A dedicated center that we operate on your behalf: hiring, HR, facilities, IT and compliance, with you directing the work.

03 · Full ownership

Build-operate-transfer

We build and run the center until it is stable, then transfer the entity, team and operations to you.

03 / What we handle

Everything around the engineering.

01

Talent

Role design, sourcing, interviews and onboarding for engineering, QA, DevOps and operations roles.

02

Entity & compliance

Entity setup support, payroll, statutory compliance, benefits and contracts.

03

Workspace & IT

Office space, equipment, secure networks and access to your systems.

04

Operations & governance

Reporting, delivery processes under ISO 9001 and CMMI Level 3, and retention programmes.

05 / GCC FAQ

Global Capability Centers, answered.

What is a Global Capability Center (GCC)?
A Global Capability Center is an offshore center owned by, or run exclusively for, a company to deliver technology, engineering, operations or business functions. Unlike outsourcing, the team works only for you, builds your intellectual property and becomes a long-term part of your organisation.
What is build-operate-transfer (BOT)?
In a build-operate-transfer model, we set up the center (entity, hiring, workspace, processes), run it for an agreed period while it matures, and then transfer ownership of the team and operations to you. It gives you a working center quickly without taking on the setup risk yourself.
How is a GCC different from outsourcing?
Outsourcing buys a service from a vendor’s shared team. A GCC is your own dedicated team and capability, with your culture, processes and IP. GCCs suit companies that need long-term scale and control; outsourcing suits defined projects and variable demand.
What does it cost to set up a GCC in India?
Cost depends on team size and roles, city, workspace, the operating model (managed, BOT or fully owned) and the support you need for legal, payroll and compliance. We provide a detailed estimate after a scoping conversation rather than a generic figure.
How long does a GCC setup take?
Timelines depend on the model and team size. Starting under an Employer of Record arrangement lets the first engineers begin quickly while the longer-term entity and workspace are put in place.
Why set up a GCC in Chandigarh?
Chandigarh and the surrounding Tricity offer strong engineering talent and a good quality of life for teams, often at lower cost than the largest metros. It is also where our own engineering hub has operated since we began building software in 2009.
