Solving Technology Problems
Anant has been working in the IT industry from the last 25 years and has gained lot of experience being on the selling side and the buying side. One of the key gaps which he primarily identified was that, there is a big gap on the selling side or the buying side. whereby, a service provider is not objective. A lot of companies are either driven of their services by a product or a solution which becomes a little bit tilted towards a Technology or an OEM.
Skillmine always is vendor agnostic, technology agnostic; kind of an objective service in a Technology play and be the part of customers to solve their Technology problems beyond the scope. Services provider always try to operate within the scope. Skillmine agrees on a contractual perspective with the scope, but it wants to break the barriers to go beyond the scope to solve its customers’ problem. So those were Skillmine’s ethos with its basic spirit and that’s why it incepted and created this company. Company’s core mantras are all about making IT that work everyday for its customers. Skillmine’s value statements are Protecting its customers’ investments and ensuring Predictable delivery every time.
