Key Findings & Highlights

Mindtree’s blockchain practice recently moved under the customer success business umbrella, which enables it to bring to market the ability to stitch & build integrated offerings with existing systems (loyalty, commerce, SAP) and niche technologies (AI/ML, IoT, RPA, AR/VR). Mindtree expects this to help force multiply the value proposition. As of February 2021, however, its delivery capabilities remain small, with fewer than two dozen specialists across its practice, primarily based in its Indian center of excellence.

Mindtree has to date focused on private blockchain for its target areas, including data access and sharing, data reconciliation, and identity protection. The company brings experience and expertise from other areas to overcome barriers for adoption, e.g., legacy system integration, information privacy and security, and governance.

The company has developed a Blockchain Automation Framework that enables it, e.g., to bootstrap and manage Hyperledger and Corda networks. It also offers two technical accelerators.

The company is principally blockchain platform-agnostic; however, its engagements are concentrated around using Hyperledger Fabric and R3 Corda. Mindtree is a Hyperledger Certified Service Provider, meaning the company offer Hyperledger support, consulting, professional services, and training for organizations embarking on their Hyperledger journey.
