The $600 million acquisition of Infocrossing is expected to bolster Wipro’s IT services, including hardware design and business process outsourcing.

Wipro, which announced this week it was acquiring U.S. based infrastructure management services provider Infocrossing for $600 million, has plans to open several software development and IT services facilities in the U.S.In addition to a software development center that Wipro will open in Atlanta within the next three months, it’s also eyeing Raleigh, N.C., Austin, Texas and Richmond, Virginia as the locations for three additional new U.S. facilities, said Sridhar Ramasubbu, Wipro CFO for Americas and Europe in an interview.

Those facilities could open in the next year, but the company first wants to see “how it goes” when its Atlanta center opens by year’s end, Ramasubbu said. Wipro expects within three years to have about 1,000 American workers based in its Atlanta development center, he said.
