Recognition highlights Birlasoft’s AI-first infrastructure capabilities and platform-led approach to enabling intelligent, scalable, and resilient enterprise operations

NOIDA, India, PUNE, India and EDISON, N.J., June 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Birlasoft Ltd (BSE: 532400) (NSE: BSOFT), part of the multibillion-dollar CKA Birla Group, has been recognized as an ‘Enterprise Innovator’ in the HFS Horizons: Next-Gen IT Infrastructure Services, 2026 report by HFS Research, a leading global research and advisory firm.

The HFS Horizons framework evaluates service providers across innovation, execution, ecosystem integration, and market impact. Horizon 2 recognizes organizations enabling end-to-end, infrastructure-led transformation at scale. Birlasoft’s inclusion underscores its strength in delivering AI-first, platform-driven infrastructure transformation, reinforcing its position as a strategic partner for enterprises advancing toward intelligent operations.

Advancing AI-First Infrastructure Modernization 

HFS Research recognized Birlasoft for its coherent and technically grounded AI-first infrastructure modernization vision. This approach is anchored in Agentic AI ops, infrastructure-as-code (IaC) generation, Configuration Management Database (CMDB) enrichment, and multi-LLM orchestration. Together, these capabilities enable enterprises to move beyond traditional infrastructure management to intelligent, autonomous, and policy-driven environments that support AI-native workloads, hybrid cloud ecosystems, and real-time decision-making.

Driving Platform-Led, Scalable Infrastructure Transformation 

A key highlight of the recognition is Birlasoft’s strong focus on platformization and reusable engineering assets, anchored in its Sigma ecosystem, including:

Sigma Orion: GenAI and Agentic AI for build, migration, transformation and operations across cloud and infrastructure environments Sigma GenEx: GenAI Experience platformSigma AIOps: AIOps and autonomous infrastructure operationsSigma B-Secure: Integrated security framework across users, applications, infrastructure, and networks

Leveraging pre-built agents, workflows, and automation frameworks, these platforms enable scalable and repeatable modernization. They accelerate transformation timelines while ensuring consistent, outcome-driven delivery across enterprise environments.

Angan Guha, CEO & Managing Director, Birlasoft, said, “This recognition from HFS Research reinforces Birlasoft’s commitment to reimagining infrastructure through an AI-first lens. Enterprises today are looking beyond incremental improvements toward intelligent, autonomous, and resilient operations. Our platform-led approach, anchored in our Sigma ecosystem and AI capabilities, enables clients to accelerate modernization at scale while building the foundations for AI-native enterprises. We are focused on delivering measurable business outcomes for our clients by combining deep engineering expertise, ecosystem partnerships, and next-generation technologies.”

Phil Fersht, CEO & Chief Analyst, HFS Research, said, “Most enterprises have spent the last decade treating infrastructure as plumbing. In the AI era, infrastructure becomes the intelligence layer that determines whether enterprises can actually scale automation, agents and real-time decision making. What stood out with Birlasoft is the focus on building reusable platforms, operational consistency and AI-ready foundations, instead of simply wrapping AI around legacy environments. The firms creating real impact right now are the ones helping clients industrialize AI operations at scale, not just experiment with isolated use cases.”

Enabling the Future of AI-Driven Infrastructure 

As enterprises accelerate the adoption of AI-native architectures and hybrid operating models, infrastructure is evolving into an intelligent control layer for enterprise operations. Birlasoft supports this transformation by building AI-ready foundations, modernizing legacy environments with minimal disruption, optimizing cost and performance, and driving continuous innovation through platform-led engineering. This recognition strengthens Birlasoft’s position at the forefront of driving AI-first infrastructure transformation for global enterprises.

Plume Named to 2026 Top 100 Global Most Loved Workplaces® List

Published

Global Broadband Customer Experience Leader listed No. 58 in Top 100 Global Most Loved Workplaces® ranking reinforcing direct link between culture health, business performance

PALO ALTO, Calif., June 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Plume Design, Inc. (“Plume”), the global technology leader trusted by more than 450 Internet Service Providers (ISPs) across 58 countries, today announced it has been named to the Top 100 Global Most Loved Workplaces® list by Most Loved Workplace® and the Best Practice Institute at No. 58, published today in The Economist. The recognition follows Plume’s Most Loved Workplace® Certification earned in April 2026 and elevates the company into an elite group of organizations worldwide whose employees demonstrate the deepest levels of emotional connection, shared values and positive sentiment toward where they work.

“We’ve made building a great culture and a rewarding work environment one of our top objectives from day one because you cannot deliver world-class experiences for 450 ISP customers if the people behind the products do not feel respected, heard and empowered,” said Dan Herscovici, President and CEO of Plume. “Being placed in the Top 100 list tells us the work is taking root. This is a milestone, not a finish line. We are committed to earning our team members’ and our customers’ trust every single day.”

Compiled using the proprietary Love of Workplace Index® (LOWI) framework, The Top 100 Global Most Loved Workplaces® list is assessed across the five “SPARK” dimensions: Systemic Collaboration, Positive Future, Alignment of Values, Respect and Killer Outcomes.

When Dan Herscovici assumed the role of President and CEO in April 2025, culture was immediately identified as one of the company’s first strategic priorities. Over the past fourteen months, Plume has undertaken a company-wide culture initiative anchored in building trust, strengthening accountability and ensuring every team member feels they belong and have the tools to do their best work. The initiative was not a headquarters exercise as it spanned all of Plume’s global offices with the same level of investment and commitment at every location. The LOWI assessment captured positive sentiment across the entire worldwide team.

Throughout that same fourteen month timeline, Plume has expanded its ISP partnerships from approximately 400 to more than 450 across 58 countries; acquired Sweepr, a leading AI care orchestration platform; launched the industry’s first open Agentic AI platform for ISPs built on telemetry from over 500 million connected devices; committed to open standards by joining organizations such as the RDK Community, prpl Foundation and Connectivity Standards Alliance; and deepened partnerships by deploying advanced WiFi 7 technology with marquee ISPs including J:COM in Japan and FPT Telecom in Vietnam. For Plume’s leadership, the parallel trajectories of culture and business performance are inseparable, not coincidental.

“Our global transformation required a sustained, visible commitment from every level of leadership,” said Lorie Boyd, Chief People Officer at Plume. “Earning a place on the Top 100 list validates what we hear from our people every day. They feel the change. They see accountability in action, they trust the direction we are heading and they are proud of the work they do. At Plume, we treat culture as a business imperative in  the same way we treat product innovation or customer delivery. And we hold ourselves to that standard in Ljubljana and Hyderabad and Tokyo with the same rigor as our headquarters in Palo Alto.”

Employee-sourced insights were central to the SPARK assessment, which evaluated Plume across dimensions that include systemic collaboration, alignment of values and respect — areas that directly reflect the company’s emphasis on trust, inclusion and psychological safety.

“What sets the Global Most Loved Workplaces apart is not a score on a survey — it is the depth of emotional connection employees feel to their work, their colleagues and the future they are building together,” said Louis Carter, CEO and Founder of Best Practice Institute and Most Loved Workplace®. “Plume demonstrates exactly what the SPARK model reveals in the highest-performing organizations: a positive vision of the future that people believe in and leaders who create the conditions for people to love where they work.”

About Plume

Plume created the first managed Wi-Fi platform for Internet Service Providers (ISPs) in 2016 and continues to lead today with a best-in-class solution for cloud-managed Wi-Fi, security, and workflow orchestration – all powered by an unmatched dataset and AI. Plume powers intelligent, cloud-managed Wi-Fi, security and subscriber experience services for more than 450 ISPs globally, delivering reliable, secure and personalized experiences across over half a billion connected devices worldwide.

Combined with powerful AI orchestration tools with its acquisition of Sweepr, Plume now offers ISPs a true end-to-end solution to power their most important workflows and customer experiences, while making deployment simpler and faster. Plume is leading the way in providing ISPs an intelligence and innovation edge to stay competitive, build subscriber confidence, and adapt to the changing needs of the market.

IR further extends end‑to‑end observability for contact centers with Collaborate for NICE CXone

Published

on

By

SYDNEY, June 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Integrated Research (“IR”), a leading global observability software provider, today announced that its UC&C observability solution, Collaborate, now supports NICE CXone, one of the world’s most widely adopted cloud contact center platforms.

Part of the release of Prognosis 13.3, IR’s core observability platform, Collaborate now offers enterprise teams a single place to monitor performance and customer journeys across CXone, bring‑your‑own‑carrier (BYOC) infrastructure, and multi‑vendor UC platforms such as Microsoft Teams and Webex.

“Contact centers live and die by the experiences they deliver, but those experiences rarely start and end on a single platform,” said Ian Lowe, CEO of IR.

“By bringing NICE CXone into Collaborate, we’re giving operations teams one clear, real‑time view of performance – from the first carrier hop to the agent’s desktop – so they can find and fix issues before customers feel the impact.”

Collaborate for NICE CXone: One true view

With Prognosis 13.3, Collaborate ingests and correlates telemetry from NICE CXone, BYOC SBCs, and UC platforms into a single high‑performance intelligence layer. This provides an end‑to‑end picture of each interaction, even as it moves between voice, digital channels and multiple systems.

Key capabilities include:

Multi‑source data aggregation – Collaborate pulls in SBC metrics, UC call flows and third‑party platform data alongside CXone events, giving operations teams one “source of truth” across their entire contact estate.Reporting built for operations – Real‑time and historical dashboards help teams track skills performance, team workload, agent utilization, queue wait times and contact outcomes in one place, without stitching together multiple tools.Customer‑centric analytics – Users can follow customer journeys across channels, analyze handle times, abandon rates and first‑contact‑resolution proxies, and pinpoint where interactions are breaking down.Pre‑emptive alerting – Threshold‑based alerts on wait times, queue volumes and agent utilization help IT and operations teams get ahead of potential SLA breaches, rather than reacting after customers complain.Historical depth – Prognosis 13.3 supports up to five years of history, enabling trend analysis, capacity planning and long‑range SLA reporting for complex environments.

Deeper visibility into Call Detail Records

As part of the release of Prognosis 13.3, Collaborate introduces unified Call Detail Record (CDR) search, a single database with AI-powered search, giving deeper visibility into interactions across any vendor. AI powered insight at individual call level is significant as IT teams must assess performance and experience at individual call level to identify root cause and to remediate issues.

Using Iris, IR’s conversational AI intelligence layer for multi‑vendor UC&C observability, teams can now search a single CDR database that spans CXone, UC platforms, SBCs and other vendors instead of querying separate systems.

“Iris is already changing the way enterprises use UC&C observability data to drive faster, better decisions,” added Ian Lowe.

“Bringing that same AI‑driven experience to CXone and contact center analytics means leaders can spend less time hunting for data and more time improving journeys, agent productivity and overall business performance.”

About IR
At IR, we power elite business performance. Trusted by the world’s largest organizations for more than 30 years, our market-leading observability solutions are powered by Prognosis – the real-time intelligence platform built for multi-vendor infrastructure, UC&CX and payments environments.
