Highly ambitious, ADP India has announced that it plans to grow to a 1,000-people operations, within the next two years. Currently, ADP has just over 100-associates on its Pune payroll.
ADP India’s Pune centre will focus on R&D functions, including providing business process outsourcing (BPO) services, besides serving as the Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery (DRCP) centre for ADP India’s operations in Hyderabad.
A staff count of 2,100-employees in Hyderabad, according to Gary Butler, President and CEO – ADP, his firm has made a $100-million investment in India, since its 1999 inception on the sub-continent.
With a global staff count of 460,000-employees, of which 30,000 are based in the US, the company’s policy today is: “We will be freezing our recruitment in the US and growing them internationally.”
Undoubtedly, a large part of that will come to India, Butler says, while sharing that the $10-billion company was growing annually at 10-12% in revenues, with a headcount growth of 5% per annum.
As well, ADP has an annual commitment of 7% of its overall revenues dedicated to R&D, with India accounting for 20-25% of its global R&D workforce. And, Butler confirms saying: “A large part of our global R&D spend would come to India,” while stressing on the high quality of skills and abundant talent pool available in India.
