Abstract:
The case examines the global delivery model (GDM) of the leading India based
software company - Infosys Technologies. Infosys used GDM as a strategic

By using GDM, Infosys delivered the highest process and quality standards, while
leveraging differences in cost, quality and skill sets of manpower in different
global locations. The case presents an in-depth information on the operational
aspects of GDM and its benefits to Infosys.
