In the last seven days, NIIT Technologies has announced two major tie-ups--one for the cargo handling systems with the Singapore Airport Terminal Services (SATS) as well cargo handling services at Jakarta, Bali and Surabaya airports in Indonesia.

In an interview with CNBC-TV18, Arvind Thakur, Chief Executive Officer of NIIT Technology, spoke about his outlook for the company.

Below is a verbatim transcript of an exclusive interview with Arvind Thakur on CNBC-TV18. Also watch the accompanying video.

Q: What does this do to your order book? Is there a quantum jump in the number of orders that you are handling?

A: By virtue of very sharp focus on a few industry segments, we are trying to build up capability along with specific IP assets to be able to address the market more effectively. So the way business is going to be done by the industry in the coming decade, is going to be very different from the way it's been done in the past decade. The focus would be more on providing value than just cost arbitrage.

Hence, we partnered with the SATS where we had built their cargo ground handling solution, which has been running so well at Changi Airport. We took that intellectual property and packaged it so that it can be implemented in other airports across the world. So that's a significance of this particular partnership. Obviously, it is helping us gain access to other clients in the region.
