Sandvik, a global engineering group in tooling, materials technology, mining and construction, has selected Mindtree, the Bangalore-based digital technology services company, to foster its IT’s service integration capabilities. In this engagement, Mindtree will design, setup and manage a geography hub, that will serve to consolidate and streamline Sandvik’s global operations, providing flexibility and agility to their IT landscape. 
 
“This is the first time we have embarked on such a model and we sought a partner with the ability to work on large transformation programs, and yet still  be able to provide a customised plan, specific to the unique needs we had. We selected Mindtree for their strong domain expertise in manufacturing, their ability to innovate and most importantly the cultural fit,” commented Petra Alund, MD Sandvik IT GSS.
 
Mindtree and Sandvik will work together on building efficiencies and economies-of-scale across Sandvik’s global organisation, providing it the scale necessary to build, operate and reinforce IT service management capabilities.
 
Rostow Ravanan, executive director, Mindtree, said, “We see this initiative as an important step for Sandvik to drive growth in its key markets. Sandvik has a multi-phase approach to their transition, and we are thrilled to be a part of it. Our expertise in delivering value for clients, will enable us to help Sandvik meet its strategic goals in this field.”
