Re: [MTC Global] Who is to be blamed for India's IT competitive edge erosion?

Dear Friends,
As commented by Dr. Loganathan. , THE FUTURE of IT will certainly be progressive. The current situation is fluid and will solidify with collaboration between Industry and academicians.

Starting salary 120,000 US $. US will need 1.5 million middle managers with data scientist background. but less than 10 now. exist.        
No university offers such a course yet..
Single subject learning will be useless within 10 years.
All companies are struggling to find data analyst and data scientists.
Many companies and Countries are in a similar situation
What will happen to India? India will tide over the situation.
Refer attached article for more clarity
With Best Wishes

  • "As the story of Kodak shows, seeing is not enough. Acting decisively and forcefully is crucial.
  • Courageous and Entrepreneurial leadership created the IT sector; and are struggling to navigate a tectonic industry shift. To succeed, companies have to be 'all-in' or utterly committed to the shift. 
  • The future business model usually requires a very different mindset and new capabilities. Building these capabilities is non-trivial and time-consuming. It requires hiring new talent with new mindsets and cultural values, setting off a clash of cultures that is difficult to manage."

Subject: Re: [MTC Global] Who is to be blamed for India's IT competitive edge erosion?

Sir, I think to find reasons for the loss of competitive edge in IT, we may need to look
at what constituted the edge of the Indian IT business. We can easily identify that
English language proficiency of our young graduates has been a significant contributing
factor. A second reason has been that a large number of Engg graduates opted to work in
IT. The Engg education relies on a strong base of mathematics, logic and physical
sciences. This enabled the employees to understand the complex problems of IT relatively
quickly. Thirdly, their contact with with global companies and global talent, ensured
that Indian employees were working with high benchmarks to achieve. Given these natural
advantages, our engineers quickly exploited the many opportunities in the easily non
competitive areas of the IT sector. For over two decades now, Indian IT companies did
very well. They were price competitive in the market and performed well at what they were
good at- activities such as programming, coding, debugging and repair to name a few.

We can now see that other non English speaking countries have developed a large English
speaking population and equipping them with training to perform same or similar jobs just
as cheaply and efficiently. Competition became tougher.

Our IT firms got behind the large software powerhouses in terms of innovation and
creativity when they set up their own bases in India. These local branches did work at
the lower end of the value chain. This sapped our creative energies. Very little or
branded software emerged from India that could drive out the larger foreign companies out
of India. For eg, we never felt the need to develop an operating system that could be
more innovative than say Apple or Windows.
Perhaps, the most significant reason could be our inability to stay ahead of the
competition.

K.Paranjpe

A significant deterioration of Engg education has followed due to graduates from the
private engineering colleges being recruited for the routine IT jobs. The High end
students migrating to US companies being important in lower level jobs being outsourced
to Indian companies.

I want to explore what has caused this kind of competitive edge erosion. There are global
factors certainly but many experts blame the culture of IT companies is responsible to a
great extent for such situation.
It would be interesting to have a discussion on the subject.
