Tech Mahindra has been selected as a strategic partner for YIT Corporation, the largest Finnish and a significant North European development and construction company. Going forward, Tech Mahindra will provide a significant part of YIT's IT services, harmonising and consolidating the current services to one dedicated supplier. Further, the organisation will support YIT’s business transformation journey by optimizing business processes through automated IT operations.

Tech Mahindra will work with YIT to modernize their enterprise IT architecture and system landscape to drive increased efficiencies across its value chain.
