QUAD – partner of choice to make World's cheapest tablet

QUAD was the partner of choice for making the dream of India's HRD Ministry a reality by being the first Indian company to manufacture the world's cheapest tablet PC – Aakash. This tablet was designed by Datawind, a UK-based company, in collaboration with IIT Rajasthan. Once Datawind emerged as the lowest bidder for the tender, QUAD was selected as the partner of choice for this venture.

With a proven track record of 14 years, QUAD was able to turn around the tablet in 2 months' time.

The 7" tablet which runs on Google's Android platform 2.2 OS, with WiFi connectivity for internet access and cloud storage has been created for use by students and will be first made available to colleges at a subsidised rate of Rs1,750 ($35) a piece, by the government as a part of its vision to make information and communication technologies an integral part of education.

With its team of over 65 engineers, QUAD has been providing services to some of the most prominent OEMs in the industry, offering solutions to both domestic (through its Domestic Tariff Area) and export oriented (through its Electronic Hardware Technology Park – SEZ) customers.

Fulfilling crucial customer requirements like Cost-control, Reduced Lead times, Product reliability are enabled by an effective supply chain management process, backward integration measures and network secured devices.

QUAD’s flexibility, experience, strong process controls, innovative solutions and its corporate vision to progress with its customers makes it a partner of choice.
