Tech Mahindra, a frontrunner in providing digital transformation, consulting, and business re-engineering services, has embarked on a strategic collaboration with KWC Group AG, a globally renowned manufacturer of premium sanitary solutions and taps. This partnership signifies Tech Mahindra’s commitment to bolstering KWC’s IT services, marking a pivotal leap towards enhancing operational efficiencies through IT automation across various business applications and the global IT infrastructure.

Tech Mahindra is set to streamline and consolidate KWC’s IT services under one umbrella, promising to elevate KWC’s business transformation journey to new heights. By standardizing global system management and end-user services, Tech Mahindra aims to fortify operational efficiencies across KWC’s value chain.
