Vinit Khanna President & CEO
Vinit founded OKS in 1985 from the living room of his West Philadelphia apartment. A lot has
changed since then, but not the things that matter most. His goal then and remains today to
provide companies with business process outsourcing services that are both affordable and of
the highest quality. Vinit was educated at The Doon School and St. Stephen’s College in India
and holds an MBA from The Wharton School. His interests include international travel, cricket,
golf and squash.
He comments, “I take pride in the fact that OKS’ growth over the years has resulted in the
education and improved standard of living of persons outside the Western Hemisphere, which
has led these people to a broader understanding of the world. We have also established
programs throughout our non-U.S. production areas specifically designed for employing women,
young mothers with families to support, and educated youth. This is not something that shows
up on a balance sheet, but at the end of the day it is what gives me the most satisfaction.

Terence Fernandes VP, Domestic Operations
Terence has been with OKS almost since the beginning and has a broad yet very detailed
understanding of how OKS functions and the importance of client satisfaction as an essential
element in the success of the company. His ability to interface with clients as well as the
production staff is especially important as OKS moves into new service areas. He holds an MBA
from St Joseph’s University in Philadelphia, and his interests include cricket and fast cars.
He says, "This is a time of unprecedented growth for OKS, both in traditional service areas as
well as newer segments like our call centers and business process consulting. Even long-
standing activities like data capture are undergoing change with the advent of new techniques
such as internet data mining and smart web-bots. However, the fundamentals remain the same -
providing the best possible service in goal-oriented partnerships with our clients".
