Sundaram Infotech Solutions Ltd ., (SISL), the IT arm of Sundaram Finance Ltd., has announced its foray into the Australian IT services market.

Sundaram Infotech will target the ERP market in Australia, specifically the medium enterprises in the automotive and construction verticals. The company will also target mid sized companies with its software service offerings in platforms like dot net, java and similar web technologies. In addition to these two areas, Sundaram Infotech also expects to explore opportunities in the ERP Training space in Australia.

Commenting on its expansion into Australia, Srinivas Acharya, Dy. MD, Sundaram Finance Ltd.,  and CEO, Sundaram Infotech said, "The Sundaram Finance Group has a successful track record in Australia, with its BPO arm, Sundaram Business Services (SBS), having made steady progress there in the last 2-3 years. We believe that the ERP and IT services outsourcing market holds a lot of potential, as can be seen from the initial interest generated in Australia, and are confident that, in the coming years, we will be able to establish a strong presence in the Aussie market."

As part of the growth strategy in Australia, Sundaram Infotech will initially have its own 'feet on street'. As a first step in this direction, the company has opened an office in Melbourne. Going forward, Sundaram Infotech will also look at marketing partnerships to target the Sydney and Brisbane ERP and IT services market.

J. Raghunathan, VP-Marketing, Sundaram Infotech said, "We are a preferred ERP implementation partner for Microsoft. This expansion into Australia is on the back of our recent successes in Jordan and Saudi Arabia, where Microsoft endorsed our ERP capabilities by choosing us for their ERP expansion into those countries. We believe similar opportunities exist in the Australian market as well. With the setting up of the office in Melbourne and the 'on the ground' presence of our team, we are now well geared for our entry into this market."

Sundaram Infotech is into development and implementation of software products, consulting and implementation of Microsoft business solutions - Axapta & Navision, and Data Warehousing & Business Intelligence solutions. SIS, which focuses primarily on the Financial Services and Manufacturing verticals, has a 50000 sq. ft. software development facility in Chennai.
