Numbers from real engagements.
Fortune 500 retailer replaced 3 outsourcing vendors with a 90-person GCC in Hyderabad.

Incorporation, registrations, office fit-out, and tech infra ready before any hire lands.
Hire & launch
Squad-by-squad ramp with a senior engineering leader embedded from day one.
Operate & transfer
We run, govern, and report. When you're ready, the whole org transfers to your books.
Tools we reach for first.
The questions we hear most.
Can we start with just 10 engineers?+
Yes — we have a 'micro-GCC' model that starts at 10 and scales without re-architecting the entity.
Do we own the IP from day one?+
Always. Every contract, codebase, and contributor agreement assigns IP directly to your parent entity.
How fast can you transfer the entity?+
Build-Operate-Transfer typically completes in 18–24 months; we've done it in 12 when needed.
Most engagements span more than one practice.
