Modis Supports Monitoring Center Buildout for Suzlon Wind Energy Corporation

 Modis, Inc., the information technology (IT) services business unit of MPS Group, Inc. (NYSE: MPS), announced that it has assisted with the buildout of a monitoring center for Suzlon Wind Energy Corporation, a leading global wind turbine manufacturer headquartered in Pune, India, and present in 21 countries across Asia, Australia, Europe and North and South America.

Suzlon decided earlier this year to revamp its Suzlon Monitoring Center (SMC), moving it from Pipestone, Minnesota, to Chicago, Illinois. This new state-of-the-art facility would complement Suzlon’s operation and maintenance services by ensuring day-to-day safety, reliability and availability of their wind farm installations in North America and around the world. Suzlon hired Modis to find highly skilled technology professionals to implement new monitoring tools for troubleshooting and root-cause analysis, and to develop new policies and procedures to enhance communication and efficiency of the operations, maintenance and service staff.

“I was tasked to go live with the new SMC in less than three months – equipment, people, and processes,” said Rick Duesing, operations manager at Suzlon. “Modis did a great job of identifying our needs and the people required for these positions. Their partnership approach has aligned perfectly with the revamping of the SMC, resulting in a full understanding of the skills we required and a successful launch of our center.”

“Modis has the depth and expertise to enable our clients to ramp up quickly, especially in rapid growth sectors like wind power,” said Clay Tucker, senior vice president of Modis. “Delivering resources that fit Suzlon’s technical requirements and unique culture helped them meet their business objectives and deploy knowledgeable workers quickly and efficiently. We look forward to supporting their growth objectives now and in the future.”
