Tech Mahindra has announced a collaboration with Microsoft to enhance workplace experiences for its 1,200+ customers and over 10,000 employees across 15 locations through the adoption of Copilot for Microsoft 365. This partnership positions Tech Mahindra as a prominent Global Systems Integrator (GSI) in the realm of Copilot for Microsoft 365.
The collaboration aims to boost workforce efficiency and streamline processes using Microsoft's trusted cloud platform and generative AI capabilities. Additionally, Tech Mahindra will deploy GitHub Copilot for 5,000 developers, anticipating a productivity increase of 35% to 40%.
Tech Mahindra is committed to empowering employees with AI tools to drive innovation, value, and sustainable growth. The organisation plans to extend the capabilities of Copilot with plugins to leverage multiple data sources and enhance creativity and productivity. The focus is on increasing efficiency, reducing effort, and improving quality and compliance across the board.
Mohit Joshi, CEO and Managing Director of Tech Mahindra, emphasised the transformative potential of this partnership, stating, “Our vision is to redefine the workplace experience by empowering every employee to excel and innovate using cutting-edge AI technology. We are not just adopting a tool; we are shaping the future of work for our employees and customers. The collaboration with Microsoft, and the introduction of Copilot for Microsoft 365 and GitHub Copilot also marks a significant stride in Tech Mahindra commitment to making AI accessible to everyone.”
As part of this initiative, Tech Mahindra has launched a dedicated Copilot practice to help customers unlock the full potential of AI tools. This includes workforce training for assessment and preparation, critical for integrating AI across all functions of an organisation.
Tech Mahindra will offer comprehensive solutions to help customers assess, prepare, pilot, and adopt business solutions using Copilot for Microsoft 365, providing a scalable and personalised user experience.
