UST, a leading AI and technology transformation solutions company, has announced the launch of UST Nimbus in collaboration with GCC advisory firm Evaaya. This new offering introduces a design-led operating model aimed at transforming Global Capability Centers (GCCs) into Global Value Organizations that drive innovation, digital transformation, and measurable business outcomes from inception.
The launch comes at a time when GCCs are rapidly evolving beyond their traditional role as cost-efficiency centers into strategic hubs for enterprise innovation. Organizations today face increasing pressure to optimize costs while accelerating innovation and maintaining control over talent and intellectual property. UST Nimbus addresses these challenges through a comprehensive build–operate–scale approach that integrates advisory, design, and execution capabilities.
Unlike conventional GCC models that focus primarily on infrastructure setup or talent acquisition at scale, UST Nimbus emphasizes a practitioner-led and design-driven framework. Developed by leaders with hands-on experience in building and scaling GCCs, the model aligns the center’s identity, culture, and objectives with the broader enterprise from the outset. This alignment enables the creation of high-performing teams, improves talent retention, and accelerates delivery outcomes.
A key pillar of UST Nimbus is its talent-first approach, which positions workforce capability as a critical competitive advantage. Through strategic workforce planning and strong employer branding, the model helps organizations attract and retain top talent. It also enables enterprises to build and retain intellectual property, data models, and digital platforms within the GCC, reducing reliance on multiple external vendors and enhancing long-term value creation.
The platform is further strengthened by AI-driven talent strategies and real-world operational insights, enabling faster ramp-up, stronger employee engagement, and sustained innovation. As a result, GCCs evolve into centers of excellence that attract critical skills and serve as long-term engines of enterprise growth.
Bharath Krishnaswamy, Senior Vice President at UST, stated that the initiative reflects a shift in how GCCs are conceptualized and operated. He emphasized that UST Nimbus combines design-first thinking with full-stack delivery capabilities to help organizations move faster, retain strategic capabilities, and continuously innovate at scale.
Vaidyanathan Seshan, EVP and Founder of Evaaya, highlighted the partnership’s focus on long-term value creation. He noted that the model prioritizes operational integration, strategic alignment, and sustained performance, enabling clients to achieve measurable impact and business resilience.
Founded in 1999, UST operates in over 30 countries with a workforce of more than 30,000 employees. The company continues to partner with global enterprises to deliver AI-driven digital transformation, engineering, and innovation solutions that create lasting value for businesses and communities worldwide.
