Symphony Service Corp., a global company specializing in software product engineering outsourcing services, announced today it has been ranked number one by Zinnov Management Consulting Pvt.

The Zinnov study concluded that Symphony Services does a superior job of partnering closely with high-performing R&D organizations to build innovative products economically, while significantly accelerating time-to-market.

The Zinnov R&D Service Providers Rating, published in September, evaluated service providers' ability to help global business leaders identify the right outsourced R&D partners to achieve their business objectives. Symphony Services outranked competitors in the outsourced software engineering market in developing new products (as well as modernizing existing products) across all high-growth industries Zinnov evaluated, including telecommunications, healthcare, consumer electronics, advanced technology and commercial-grade software.

"In order to help business leaders in spearheading global engineering initiatives in their organizations and to facilitate them in identifying the right partners, thereby enabling them to serve customer needs better, we at Zinnov looked at conducting this first-of-its-kind study," said Pari Natarajan, chief executive officer, Zinnov Management Consulting Pvt. Ltd. "I would like to congratulate Symphony Services for making it to the leadership position in the global software engineering services vertical."

Zinnov's extensive analysis began with 100 R&D service providers across the US, India, China and Eastern Europe that were reviewed across 18 parameters grouped into the major categories of financial strength, people strength, operations, innovation, expertise and business models.
