Udai Singh Pathania, country manager for the Indian operations has quit the company and is expected to take up a new assignment within the next three weeks.

Earlier this year, i2 had announced that it might sack 10 per cent of its 6,100 employees as a cost-cutting measure, citing the economic slowdown in the US market as the primary reason. In India, it employs about 850 people. For the financial year ended December 2000, the company reported revenues of $1.1 billion.

The company was founded in 1988 by Sidhu, who worked as an engineer in Texas Instruments' intelligence laboratory in Dallas prior to founding i2.

During the year, under Pathania's stewardship, i2 integrated its supplier relationship management and customer relationship management capabilities with its supply-chain management capabilities, thus making it an end-to-end solutions provider from supplier to customer.
