Tata Technologies and Tenneco, a designer, manufacturer and distributor of mobility products for original equipment and aftermarket customers, have expanded their global partnership, with plans to increase operations from India.

The two companies formalised the expanded agreement during a signing ceremony held on June 30th at Bombay House in Mumbai, the headquarters of the Tata Group. Jon Bagrosky, Chief Administrative Officer at Tenneco, and Warren Harris, Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director of Tata Technologies, signed the agreement on behalf of their respective organisations. The agreement includes Tenneco's planned investment of more than US$ 100 million in the engagement over the next five years.

Bagrosky stated that the expanded partnership builds on the existing relationship between the two companies and reflects the continued importance of India for Tenneco's operations. He added that the move is intended to support customer requirements and address changing market conditions.

It is centred on Tata Technologies' Global Engineering Center in Pune, which uses technical resources, digital tools and AI-enabled systems for product development and operational activities across Tenneco's global operations.
