His name is Kumar Rachuri and he is the CIO of Ohio Shared Services Centre wherein government employees are working on business functions like accounts payable, travel reimbursement, call center services, imaging and vendor paperwork. Incidentally, Kumar was the man who designed the technology backbone for the organization and this is called Ohio Administrative Knowledge System. Due to this, a total of 14 state agencies have now been brought under a single roof.
With this idea, Rachuri has managed to bring down the cost of one invoice from $33 to $12 and he is hoping to get it to $6 in the future. Residing at Ohio, Kumar has Ronn Kolbash as his associate and now Ronn has gone to Yale University to expand this concept while Rachuri Kumar is spreading his arms and making the Telugus and Indians proud.
