Cognizant — A Passion for Building Stronger Businesses
Cognizant (NASDAQ:CTSH) is a U.S.-based global IT services and business process outsourcing solutions provider headquartered in Teaneck, N.J. Cognizant was founded in 1994 as an IT development and maintenance services arm of The Dun & Bradstreet Corporation. The company was spun-off as an independent organization two years later. Since 1996, Cognizant has worked closely with large organizations to help them build stronger, more efficient, and more agile businesses.
By emphasizing its strengths in close customer relationships, highly flexible operations, seamless global delivery culture, and deep knowledge of companies and markets, Cognizant helps its customers achieve better bottom-line results and delivers a better “return on outsourcing.” Cognizant was one of the first major offshore companies to organize its services around key industry verticals and horizontals and is able to deliver deep domain expertise to its clients.
From its founding, Cognizant was built with a global mindset. Today, this heritage has provided Cognizant with a significant market advantage. Because customers see globalization as a key element to their future success, they seek partners who can help them succeed in this journey. Being born global, Cognizant is a uniquely qualified partner for these clients.
