Industry context and challenges
Human capital remains the toughest challenge. Engineers who can manage complex networks and secure cloud systems are in short supply, leaving many firms racing to build internal training pipelines. Clients now want flexible subscription contracts, quick deployment and integration that works across every environment — from physical servers to hybrid clouds.
Cybersecurity and integration specialists are among the most sought-after professionals in the market. Customers, meanwhile, expect frictionless connectivity between in-house systems and cloud applications — and they want it delivered at predictable cost and speed. For CGI India, these challenges are matched by opportunity. With its extensive global network and mature service model, it can deliver both stability and innovation — a balance many regional competitors struggle to achieve.
