At this level, an organization continually improves its processes based on a quantitative understanding of its business objectives and performance needs. The organization uses a quantitative approach to understand the variation inherent in the process and the causes of process outcomes.

Commenting on the recognition, Anjan Lahiri, CEO, Birlasoft said, “We are on a transformational journey and this is a big step forward for us. Our longstanding relationships with marquee customers in Fortune 500 are testimony to our capabilities and solutions-driven approach.
