Wipro Ltd. (NYSE:WIT), a leading global Information Technology,
Consulting and Outsourcing company, today announced that its year-long
partnership with CAST,
a leader in software analysis and measurement, has resulted in delivery
of superior quality application services to its customers, across
industry sectors.
Wipro’s ‘AppInsight Center of Excellence (CoE)’, powered by CAST, is
boosting application quality to the next level. Designed for large
organizations with complex IT landscapes, AppInsight CoE assesses the
structural quality of applications and provides critical insights into
application resiliency, performance bottlenecks and security
vulnerabilities. This is highly relevant in today’s technology
environment, where most IT solutions are implemented by integrating a
set of custom and industry standard solutions. CAST provides a single
integrated platform to discover software flaws across these diverse
solutions.
With a strong focus on application quality, Wipro has adopted Total
Quality Index (TQI) as the primary metric to monitor its project
deliverables. During the last year, Wipro has utilized CAST analytics on
project sizing and structural quality to significantly improve the TQI
of critical systems. As one of the industry’s firsts, Wipro is now able
to baseline and benchmark structural quality of applications across
verticals to further reduce software
risk and total cost of ownership (TCO) for its customers.
Bhanumurthy B M, Senior Vice President, Business Application Services,
Wipro, said: “Wipro’s partnership with CAST is a strategic one and we
consider it to be an important asset in our application services
portfolio. This partnership has enabled fact-based insight into the
state of systems and processes and demonstrated faster and predictable
delivery, thereby improving software health and resiliency for our
customers.”
In the areas of Application Management Services, CAST has helped Wipro
cut down on transition risks and build online knowledge repositories for
faster knowledge transfer and incident resolutions.
Vincent Delaroche, CEO of CAST said, “CAST is delighted to be associated
with Wipro in its journey towards advanced structural analysis and
measurement based on emerging CISQ
standards. With CAST, Wipro is clearly able to differentiate itself from
competition in providing superior services and high quality solutions to
its customers.”
