Project Overview

The client, a global enterprise accelerating its AI initiatives, needed a dedicated GCC set up in India to overcome talent shortages, rising delivery costs and fragmented AI execution while maintaining enterprise grade quality, security and governance standards.

We partnered closely with the client to design and operationalize an AI focused GCC, aligning strategic goals with talent, governance and delivery models to enable rapid scaling, predictable execution and long term support for mission critical AI programs.

What We Did

  • Defined AI first GCC strategy aligned to business goals
  • Designed scalable operating and governance model
  • Built and enabled high performing AI Software engineering teams
  • Established rapid hiring and structured onboarding processes
  • Set up secure, compliant infrastructure and access controls
  • Implemented agile AI delivery and development workflows
  • Enabled seamless cross border collaboration models
  • Introduced real time KPIs, dashboards and reporting
  • Aligned AI roadmaps with enterprise priorities

An AI-driven GCC architecture enabling secure data flow, scalable platforms, and enterprise-grade AI delivery pipelines:

💡 Did You Know? 

The shift from experimental AI to enterprise scale adoption is accelerating 83% of companies invest in GenAI, while 58% are already using Agentic AI, with 29% planning adoption soon.

The Problem

The client needed to accelerate AI initiatives but faced operational inefficiencies, talent constraints, cost pressures and scalability challenges that made delivering enterprise grade AI solutions quickly and reliably very difficult.

Fragmented AI development efforts

The client’s AI initiatives were scattered across multiple teams and geographies, causing inconsistent outputs, duplicated work and lack of standardized processes, which slowed innovation and made it difficult to align with business goals.

Shortage of experienced AI engineers

Limited access to skilled AI professionals slowed development, created bottlenecks and forced reliance on external vendors, making it challenging to build in-house expertise and maintain long term, scalable AI operations.

High cost of onshore AI teams

Maintaining AI talent in the client’s home country was expensive due to high salaries and operational overheads, reducing ROI and making it difficult to scale AI projects efficiently while keeping budgets under control.

Lack of delivery transparency

The client lacked real time visibility into project progress, team performance and resource utilization, making it difficult for leadership to make informed decisions, monitor outcomes and ensure accountability across AI initiatives.

Slow time-to-market for AI initiatives

Lengthy recruitment cycles, fragmented processes and inefficient workflows delayed AI solution delivery, limiting the client’s ability to capitalize on market opportunities and respond quickly to evolving business requirements.

Governance and compliance concerns

Without standardized frameworks, the client faced risks related to data security, regulatory compliance and process adherence, which could result in operational inefficiencies, legal exposure and reputational damage.

Difficulty scaling AI teams quickly

Rapidly increasing demand for AI capabilities was hindered by lack of structured talent pipelines, onboarding processes and operational frameworks, making it challenging to expand teams without impacting quality or delivery timelines.

The Solution

We implemented a centralized AI focused GCC in India, combining rapid talent acquisition, agile delivery, cost efficient GCC setup & operations and enterprise grade governance to accelerate AI initiatives, ensure transparency and enable scalable, long term AI growth.

An end-to-end GCC setup and scaling model supporting AI-driven growth and enterprise-grade delivery standards.

Setup & Scaling AI-focused GCC

Centralized AI-focused GCC operating model

We established a centralized GCC structure in India to consolidate AI efforts, standardize processes and ensure alignment across global teams, improving efficiency, reducing duplication and creating a single source of accountability for enterprise AI initiatives.

Rapid AI talent acquisition and onboarding

We implemented a fast track recruitment and onboarding process to attract top AI engineers, enabling the client to quickly scale teams, fill critical skill gaps and accelerate delivery without compromising quality or project timelines.

Cost optimized offshore delivery framework

By shifting delivery to India with optimized resource allocation, we significantly reduced operational costs while maintaining high quality outputs, allowing the client to invest in innovation and scale AI initiatives efficiently.

Real time dashboards and reporting

Our real time reporting tools and dashboards provide leadership with complete visibility into project progress, team performance and resource utilization, enabling informed decision making and ensuring transparency across all AI programs.

Agile AI delivery pipelines

We introduced agile workflows, sprint based development and iterative AI deployment pipelines to accelerate delivery cycles, improve collaboration and ensure faster time to market for AI solutions while maintaining enterprise grade quality.

Enterprise grade security and compliance

We implemented strict security protocols, access controls and regulatory compliance frameworks to protect sensitive data, mitigate operational risks and ensure all GCC operations adhered to enterprise and industry standards.

Scalable team extension strategy

Our flexible and repeatable team extension framework, enabling the client to quickly scale AI teams based on evolving project needs, ensuring long term growth without impacting delivery quality or operational efficiency.

🤖 Impact of AI on GCC Scaling

Powered by AI, India’s GCCs are accelerating, a 500 member team can now deliver the capability of a 2,000 member team.

The Result

The AI focused GCC became fully operational within 9 months, enabling the client to accelerate AI development while maintaining delivery quality and governance. Teams began contributing to production workloads with improved speed, predictability and cost efficiency.

Built with scalability in mind, the GCC now supports ongoing AI innovation and future expansion. The GCC operating model allows the client to grow teams, capabilities and output without adding operational complexity or delivery risk.

Visualizing the tangible outcomes of scaling AI-focused delivery from global teams to an India GCC:

Enterprise scale AI Delivery GCC

Key Outcomes

  • Scaled AI focused GCC in under 9 months
  • 98% accuracy in AI model deployments
  • 3.2x faster time to hire for AI roles
  • Enhanced operational efficiency by 50%
