NIIT

 

This leading IT company started in 1981 and grabbed the popular imagination. It is into developing, marketing and implementing technical know-how packages for education/training. It is also keen on consultancy and data processing.

 

The NIIT model spans three business segments. The first one is in individual learning, where the company has been a market leader for years. The second one is in training, where it caters to 7,800 schools and the third one is corporate learning.

Since 2008 the business model has been altered to invest and move the business from the current IT-centric services model, which is linear, to a non-linear model. NIIT believes that the linear business model is where growth and revenue can best be generated. However, it calls for a huge employee base. As to specifics, then NIIT is re-platforming the solutions acquired through Room Solutions and making it a Service Oriented Architecture, which is more current, modern and acceptable in the market.
