One Shore™ Consulting

At MindTree, we have forged a distinct business culture we call "OneShore". It describes both how we serve our clients and how we view our company.

Oneshore™ represents our method for global development that achieves a balance of quality, cost savings and localization. For every client, we build a unified team of both software engineers and business consultants that collaborate from start to finish on all stages of a project. We don't have separate camps of front-end and back-end specialists. And projects are always managed on the spot, wherever our clients are located.

Oneshore™ also reflects our company culture. At MindTree, we recognize that IT services firms cannot deliver quality and cost-and-time savings unless they commit to integrate disparate people, cultures, business processes and skill sets into a single corporate vision. One-shore represents a complete fusion of global resources that enables us to possess many locations, but one vision. And this approach delivers a consistent customer experience.

Origin

MindTree was started in 1999 by 10 industry professionals who came from Cambridge Technology Partners, Lucent Technologies and Wipro. The founding team was led by Ashok Soota who was at that time vice chairman and president of Wipro, one of India's largest software companies.
