The Qaser model

In India there are a large number (hundreds) of independently operated small IT providers with team sizes varying from 20 to 250. These providers usually have excellent delivery capabilities in their own areas. However they face the following challenges:

  • Experienced and high skilled resources are either too expensive or they prefer to work for Tier1-2 providers
  • A number of them do not have any global market access as building and maintaining a sales force is often too expensive
  • As they are able to build competencies only in a few technologies/domains, they are not able to service all opportunities

Qaser (Quality assured service) brings all these individually operating IT talent pools together. It is a single point of contact to all customers to service all their IT requirements by efficiently leveraging these small but specialized IT providers. To accomplish this task, Qaser is applying the concept of grid computing to the provision of IT services. It is a team of highly experienced and skilled IT professionals located across the globe. It will act as a hub for acquiring and managing global customers, pool resources from the smaller providers based on the customer requirements and oversee execution (when necessary) to ensure customer satisfaction. It will be the single face to the customer accountable for delivery and shall be the contracting entity. This model is an ideal solution for Small and Medium Businesses (SMB) as: Big IT providers focus only on large organizations and hence SMBs are treated as less important customers. They are also more expensive and less flexible &Tier 3-4 Providers offer capabilities in one or two areas, for instance on a single ERP, language platform or domain. Qaser — Partner Ecosystem

Learning Management System
Qaser has developed a Moodle based Learning Management System (LMS) for tHinkHR(THR) Corporation in the United States. This system has gone live in October 2014 and has 115,000+ users at present. Over 2000 courses are being taken each week using the system and THR plans to scale up the user base to 0.5 million in 2015. THR offers more than 600 online courses on LMS at present. Based on the spectacular success of the product in the US, Qaser sees a big opportunity in India for a similar LMS. The reasons are:

  • Corporate learning is mostly classroom based and is either provided in-house or using external faculties
  • The compliance regime in India is getting more stringent and hence keeping employees abreast of all the regulatory requirements shall benefit organisations
  • Safety standards in India need improvement especially in Driving and road safety, Construction and Manufacturing. The recent legislation in road safety is an example.
  • Smaller enterprises that cannot afford in house training and compliance departments can benefit by subscribing the online courses
  • The competition in India is fragmented and there is a large untapped market
