Wipro wins ESI contract worth Rs 1182 cr

Wipro Infotech has bagged an IT outsourcing contract from Employees State Insurance Corp (ESIC), which is under the ministry of labour and employment, the company said Friday.

It won the six-year contract, worth Rs 1,182-crore, after outbidding Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) and Infosys Technologies in a global tender floated last year for ESIC's 'Project Panchdeep'.

The project involves implementing a project to improve healthcare services to its beneficiaries by providing online facilities to employers and insured people for registration, payment of premium and disbursement of cash benefits.

The project includes identification of 10 million subscribers and their family members covered under ESIC and connecting all its locations.

"It is an honour to be awarded one of the prestigious e-governance projects in the country. As a strategic relationship for us, we are committed to making it a showcase in the e-governance domain," said Anand Sankaran Wipro Infotech vice-president.
