  248. Generalist techies, your days are numberedAs Indian information technology (IT) industry moves from a delivery-focused business model to innovation, there is scramble for tech specialists. Aiming to increase revenues from innovative services, IT companies would aim to hire more specialists than generalists. Accenture, one of the fastest growing IT consulting & outsourcing companies in the world today, is pushing its employees to take technical career paths in areas like data analytics, machine learning and AI, blockchain, and internet-of-things. Accenture is doing a talent transformation in its India operations with the focus on driving specialisation at scale. “The generalist management cadre has got wiped out in Accenture in the last few years. We needed an innovation culture, subject matter experts. We told our people that they have to be closer to the tech and the industry domain,” Mohan Sekhar, senior managing director and lead â€" Accenture Advanced Technology Centers in India (ATCI), told TOI. “Till five years ago, we were known as the India development centre, good delivery people to work with. We had to change the DNA of the company into an innovation-led organisation.” A sign of IT companies hunting for specialists is their utter dearth in the country. Over the past year, the shortage of data scientists has increased dramatically because of a surge in demand. That's true for cloud architects, storage systems & management specialists and software architects too. A talent supply index (TSI) developed by recruitment company Belong puts the TSI for these roles at 0.2 â€" in other words, if there are 10, say, cloud architect opportunities, there are only 2 relevant cloud architects available. A cloud architect is an IT professional responsible for overseeing a company’s cloud computing strategy.The TSI for data scientists has dropped dramatically from 0.7 in 2017 to 0.2 this year. Belong said the demand has shot up by over 400% while the supply has seen only a 19% increase. Data scientists are responsible for using computing systems to collect, analyse and interpret large amounts of data to identify ways to help a business improve operations and gain a competitive edge over rivals. The TSI data showed that for every 100 neural network specialists, there are only 40 available. Be it for self-driving cars, stock market prediction or fraud detection, neural networks can ingest large volumes of images, videos and words to offer desired outcomes. As a subset of machine learning, neural network is a set of algorithms that mimic the brain.Blockchain, the technology at the root of cryptocurrency, had a TSI of 0.5. Sriram Raghavan, VP in IBM Research (India and Singapore), told TOI that the popularity of blockchain had moved from cryptocurrency to business applications across many industries such as insurance, finance, and supply chain logistics, which in turn has increased the demand for skilled developers.IT services or software services export sector, which has been a key job creator in the country for one-and-a-half decade, has started seeing single-digit growth (roughly 8%) since the last financial year. A large number of their clients, primarily businesses in the US and Europe, adopted to digital technologies such as cloud computing, machine learning, artificial intelligence to serve their customers. This has resulted in faster growth in those emerging technology areas and a decline in traditional on-premise software maintenance work, which has been the core of Indian IT players. This shift in business is visible in hiring too as companies now prefer specialists who can help them grow their innovation business.
  249. Over Rs 50,000 cr lost so far due to truckers' strike: AssochamThe ongoing countrywide strike by truckers has led to an estimated direct and indirect loss of over Rs 50,000 crore to the economy and the government and transporters should resolve the crisis through negotiations, an Assocham statement said on Friday.Around 90 lakh trucks have been off the roads since July 20 with truckers protesting against high diesel prices, for removal of all toll barriers across the country and reduction of the third party insurance premium."Though the micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) are worst affected, other sectors are also starting to feel the impact of indefinite strike, which has already caused direct and indirect estimated loss worth over Rs 50,000 crore to the economy," said the chamber's Secretary General, D.S. Rawat in the statement."While the government should pay heed to transporters' genuine demands as their operating costs have been rising exorbitantly, we would at the same time request the unions to call off their strike and focus on finding agreeable solution in the interest of industry as a whole."Due to floods in various parts of the country, the supply of perishable items has already been disturbed and prices have gone up, he added.Demands of the truckers also include abolition of TDS, rationalisation of income tax, smoother functioning of the E-way bill, national permit for tourists and buses and abolition of the direct port delivery tendering system
