Wipro, Lockheed Martin start ops in Gurgaon

New Delhi: Wipro Technologies and defence contractor Lockheed Martin on Saturday announced the opening of their joint network centric operations centre in Gurgaon. It is the third such centre for Lockheed Martin after those in USA and the UK.
The centre, christened Ambar Jyoti, will develop, demonstrate and experiment with emerging network-enabled capabilities and solutions to cater to military and civil applications. With its core competence in testing and analysing war-fighting concepts, it would help the armed forces in the areas of command, control, communications, surveillance and reconnaissance.
While it could help with traffic management in civil aviation, Ambar Jyoti would also come handy for optimal resource deployment in case of natural disasters. “While Wipro brings its IT infrastructure and networking expertise to the collaboration, Lockheed Martin would provide simulation tools and its aerospace expertise,” said Wipro chief operating officer AL Rao.
