Saab AB, Mahindra Satyam To Establish Technology Centre

Mahindra Satyam, the consulting and IT services provider, has announced that Saab AB has entered into an agreement to establish Saab India Technology Center (SITC). This decision strengthens the already strategic relationship between Saab and the Mahindra Group.

The aim is to increase development in India in terms of identified concrete programs and technologies to SITC. The centre will provide a secure platform to facilitate development of Aerospace & Defence projects in India, supporting the establishment Saab is pursuing. India presents a huge opportunity for Saab across their business areas Aeronautics, Dynamics, Electronic Defence Systems and Security and Defence Solutions.

This 300-seater dedicated centre would be established at one of the Mahindra sites and will be an extended arm of Saab working on New Product Development and Product Sustenance Engineering. While supporting the internal operational excellence and optimisation initiatives within Saab, this centre will also support offset obligations for all Saab products and services in India.
