Server Migration One of Niranjan's most notable achievements is the successful migration of over 800 Windows servers to the latest version at Health Care.

His work at HCL and its Health Care Client has not only saved the customer a tremendous amount in millions but also generated even more in the millions in revenue. Niranjan's expertise, innovative thinking, and leadership skills make him an exemplary candidate for the Information Technology (IT) award, as he continues to push the boundaries of what is possible in the field.
