Covering almost 20,000 square feet and seating up to 165 people, the facility is designed to house the company’s ‘shared services’ business stream.

Shared services refers to the various services DICV exports to other Daimler entities around the world, including R&D, IT, Cost Engineering, Supplier and Quality Management, Human Resources and Customer Service.

Since launching its service export business in 2012, DICV has already delivered end-to-end solutions to more than 10 countries including Germany, Japan and the USA. The Global Capability Centre was opened to meet the growing global demand for Indian-based services.

Mr. Satyakam Arya, CEO & Managing Director, DICV, said, “With the rapid growth of our shared services revenue stream, we are substantially increasing our significance in providing a broad portfolio of services to the international Daimler network and beyond. With our new Global Capability Centre, we look forward to attracting the best possible local talent and continuing to make for the world.”
