Pratt & Whitney’s India Digital Capability Center (IDCC) has been inaugurated in Bengaluru, India. The center has been established to provide various digital technology capabilities critical to Pratt & Whitney’s overarching digital strategy.

The center is positioned next to Pratt & Whitney’s existing engineering and supply chain operations centers of excellence in India. Due to their proximity, it will also collaborate with other RTX entities in India, such as Collins Aerospace and RTX Enterprise Services.

“The expansion of Pratt & Whitney’s digital technology presence in Bengaluru will allow us to leverage India’s aviation and technology talent and accelerate our digital transformation,” said Rahul Dharni, Vice President and Global Chief Information Officer at Pratt & Whitney.

Recruitment drives are underway, with plans to increase the IDCC’s workforce to over 300 employees by 2027.

This latest investment in India by Pratt & Whitney follows a $40 million injection into engineering and supply chain operations centers over the past two years. In total, RTX employs more than 5,000 people in India.
