Maturity
Multi-Function / Full-Stack GCC

On-file mandate already characterizes this center as Multi-Function/Full-Stack; the head's title ('Head of Merck IT Center (MITC), IT Country Head, India') combined with a two-city footprint (Bengaluru, Mumbai) is consistent with an IT-anchored capability center broadened into a country-wide, multi-city operation.
