Infosys' Product Engineering (PE) practice offers a host of services including application development, maintenance, product engineering, R&D, infrastructure services and consulting to enterprises across the globe.
..
Our services span the entire lifecycle of a product, from conceptualization through product architecture, design, development, product enhancement, maintenance, test / validation to product support and go-to-market services.
Infosys' PE services are truly collaborative - we do not own the Intellectual Property and do not compete with our product customers.
We provide businesses a competitive advantage to succeed in their domains through:
- Engineering excellence - 94% of our projects are delivered on time/cost/quality and we execute approximately 300 PE projects at any time.
- Reduction in cost - A minimum 30% reduction in your cost of product development ensures that you can do more with the same and gain leadership for your product.
- Reduction in time-to-market - We can reduce your product engineering time by more than 30%.
- Flexibility - Infosys PE shoulders the rapid scale "up" and "tear down" costs with no impact to you.
- Innovation - Our sustenance services ensure that you focus on innovation while we manage your existing product portfolio.
Cost is not the only factor for the success or failure of a product. High quality products ensure a long-term relationship between the supplier and the customer, ensuring business benefits for both parties.

Today, management of product quality has become an integral part of the product development lifecycle. Every product organization is building effective processes that are well supported by systems to enforce stringent quality management of their products.
This paper explains one such system that provides an integrated and comprehensive approach to product quality management using a workflow-based model.
A PQMS (Product Quality Management System) provides improved product quality by tightly integrating into a unified environment, the key components of the Product Management cycle:
- Quality assurance
- Release management
- Customer quality management
- Resource management
PQMS is developed on the concept of integrating processes seamlessly into the engineering workflow through a robust workflow engine that can be easily configured to incorporate a company's process. PQMS achieves process efficiency and better predictability through continuous closed loop corrective actions and can be a powerful tool to improve and manage a product's quality.
Convergence in communications, media and the Internet is pitting the giants of industry against one another. This paper examines the convergence in video distribution and assesses how the "Triple Play" (offering of video, voice and high speed data)
... and "Quad Play" bundles (Triple Play plus mobile) may evolve.
The widespread popularity of IP Multimedia Subsystems (IMS) is a clear indication that independent networks will be integrated into a single IP-based infrastructure, the Next-Generation Network (NGN), in the near future.
Service interaction between games and other mobile devices is a key challenge in future mobile gaming. This paper analyzes the disparity in current user equipment-based implementations and discusses how IMS architecture can address interaction issues at the network level.
IP Multimedia Subsystems (IMS) help track presence across sources and technologies and aggregates presence information at the network rather than at presence agents. Since IMS is access-agnostic, it makes communication user-centric by enabling a unified identity
... across multiple devices and media types.
Global sourcing is causing dramatic shifts in how and where product components and capabilities are sourced, and where work gets done. Part 1 examines the trends, drivers and benefits of adopting global sourcing in product development.
Global sourcing is causing dramatic shifts in how and where product components and capabilities are sourced, and where work gets done. Part 2 presents the most significant parameters to consider while defining a global sourcing operating model.
