Based in the central business district, the new facility will support Queensland-based clients across a variety of IT platforms, but with an emphasis on enterprise applications-based solutions.
Satyam already operates development centres in Melbourne and recently launched a regional solutions hub in North Sydney adding up to 7,500 square metres of space. It also has a development centre in Canberra.
The company has used its expansion in Australia to continually bolster its follow-the-sun Virtual Global Delivery Model.
Satyam co-founder and managing director Rama Raju said the Brisbane facility would enable the company to meet the specific regional needs of its Queensland clients from the local government, finance, insurance and mining sectors.
The centre, which officially opened a week ago but has been operational for two months, currently employs 40 professionals, with Satyam expecting to add a further 50 in the near future.
“Satyam is already well established in Australia and today’s announcement reinforces our ongoing commitment to collaborating with customers –wherever they need us – to transform their organisations,” Mr Raju said.
The company currently employs about 1,200 associates serving the Australian market, of which about 800 are based in Australia. The company said it placed an emphasis on employment generation, with 42 per cent of its associates in Australia being Australian nationals.
