LONDON and PUNE, India and DETROIT, August 5 /PRNewswire/ --

- Jaguar Land Rover appoints INCAT as Application Transition Vendor and
Application Management Services provider in a move that underscores INCAT's
leadership in IT and engineering management within the automotive sector

INCAT, a global leader in Enterprise IT Services and Engineering Services
Outsourcing (ESO) and a leading international provider of Product Lifecycle
Management (PLM) solutions, has been awarded a managed services contract with
Jaguar Land Rover until 2013. Jaguar Land Rover has appointed INCAT as the
preferred services partner on two key roles in the Ford-Tata IT migration
process.

INCAT's first responsibility is to provide expertise in transitioning
over 1,000 IT applications from Ford into the new Jaguar Land Rover
landscape. This complex and challenging programme role, known as Application
Transition Vendor (ATV), will involve a team of up to 100 INCAT staff,
comprising project managers, functional analysts and technical experts, and
will be completed in stages over a period of 18 months. It will involve
working closely with Jaguar Land Rover IT staff, Ford's transition team and
Jaguar Land Rover's infrastructure partners and providers. The INCAT ATV team
will be co-located with the Jaguar Land Rover transition team on the Land
Rover Solihull site.

The second role, known as Application Management Services (AMS), is to
provide ongoing support for the transitioned applications for the next five
years. This will involve a team of approximately 250 INCAT staff located both
onshore in the Coventry area and offshore at INCAT's Delivery Centre in Pune,
India, and will leverage support from its Group company, Tata Consultancy
Services (TCS). The task for the AMS team is to gain expertise of the
applications from the current support providers at Ford, and to then manage
the ongoing provision of support to equivalent service levels.

Both activities further reinforce INCAT's expansion of facilities and
resources in the West Midlands.

"This is a great outcome for both INCAT and Jaguar Land Rover," comments
Alan Weeks, Jaguar Land Rover IT Transition Manager. "INCAT offers the most
robust and complete set of service provisions to meet our needs with the
least risk. Recognising that INCAT is also owned by Tata, we have been
particularly sensitive to the need to treat them as we would any other
vendor. No advantageous insight has been available to the INCAT team, who
worked with us in a very professional manner throughout the research phase."

INCAT, a long-term services partner to Jaguar Land Rover, already
provides specialist PLM and engineering related services, with around 70 PLM
consultants and engineers supporting Jaguar Land Rover projects at the Gaydon
and Whitley sites.

Richard Welford, INCAT's Vice President of Tata Motors Business Europe,
adds: "The INCAT team is delighted to have the opportunity to build upon our
established, long-term relationship with Jaguar Land Rover."

Warren Harris, INCAT CEO, concludes: "This engagement with Jaguar Land
Rover is a significant expansion of a long-standing and valued relationship
between our organisations. The expertise that INCAT brings to this engagement
is two-fold. First, there is our dominant position in product development IT
services. Secondly -- and most importantly -- is our intimate knowledge of
Jaguar Land Rover including its market, its products and its business
objectives."
