Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) has been ranked among the top three providers in the HFS OneOffice Services Top 10 for People and Process Change.

According to HFS, emerging technologies combined with people, process, and data innovation dissolve the barriers between the front and back office to create OneOffice. People and process change focuses on capabilities in developing and integrating people and process change across the services portfolio, such as design thinking, change management, skills enablement, and process innovation to drive operations excellence.

The report according to the company’s filing on Thursday ranked TCS number one for Change Specialists and Overall Execution, and among the top two for Talent, Scale, and Composition.

“TCS places people at the core of all transformation journeys, integrating inclusion with business strategy and focusing on humanized automation, collaboration, and integrated business applications.
