History

Genpact went public on NYSE on August 2, 2007 under the symbol "G".

The NYSE symbol "G" was initially allocated to the Gillette company. After the Gillette Company was acquired by Procter and Gamble, the symbol became free and Genpact and Google booked it. It was Genpact in the end that got to keep G as its stock symbol.

Apart from GECIS, Genpact has also been known as GECSI and GECIBS in its initial days of operation.

Management team

Many members of the team developed their management skills working within GE and were involved in building Genpact into an independent commercial enterprise that exists today. There was also a recent change announced in the Leadership team. NV "Tiger" Tyagarajan took over from Pramod Bhasin as the next CEO for Genpact effective June 17th 2011.

Smart Enterprise Processes(SEPSM)

In 2009, Genpact introduced its Smart Enterprise Processes (SEPSM), a scientific methodology enabling business process effectiveness to deliver measurable business outcomes. With SEPSM, companies can achieve substantially improved financial performance by breaking down organizational silos and making business processes effective and measurable. Compared with traditional efforts focused on efficiency within individual processes or business units, SEPSM’s end-to-end methodology can deliver two to five times the impact on improved cash flow, margins, revenue growth or other targeted financial and operating metrics. SEPSM methodology was reviewed and recognized by International Data Corporation (IDC) and other Industry Analysts.
