The Vintage Performance.

Just watched 'KBC'. Prashant ,the hot seat contestant cleared a landmark of 1 crore before falling prey to a question of 5 crore.
What Audacity he carries, Commendable. Plenty of things to take cue from!

The Power Plant Visit.

The 660MW turbine is being installed .This big capacity turbine is generally of Chinese make.India manufactures Max. 500MW capacity turbine.


Our Visiting Team.


The Coal conveying system.I took this pic from the top of the boiler .The coal is conveyed here from a distant location .It is pulverised and transferred to Boiler where its is burnt to produce steam which rotates turbine.
The plant overview.The 3 big structures are chimneys.They are used to release flue gases to atmosphere.Their height is around 275m.
This visit was the unique in its own way as it going to be India's largest power plant in terms of power production.It consists of 4 units of 330MW and 5 units of 660MW installed bay wise.It Will be able to deliver almost 4700MW power once synchronized with grid. Imagine Delhi's peak season demand is almost 3800MW,that means it can single handily cater Delhi summer season's demand with still 900 MW in balance.Whoa !

The ' 8' Imbroglio.

These days I am into a Review Engineering Project .I am submerged in workaholism to such an extent that it is hard to obliterate 'Review ' from 'office apart life'...ha ha ha
Just now I tried to review,I mean introspect my life and discovered Congenital and sturdy relationship with 'Eight' factor.
First of all Evolving myself on 17th .Then wearing a tag of Roll No-8 for 8 semesters with 8th one being the best and happiest of the all.The college life finally culminating with CPI pointing to 8.
Now comes the Beginning of office life. Everyday using NH-8 to reach 'Lahmeyer'(8 alphabets) which is located in Sector-44 .The Entry into which requires a Biometric user identification of '8'.
I know it is just a coincidence ,Probably an intentionally made one.
Whatever the case may be ,It is surely a mind boggling Exercise which prompts me to continue to write!!!!.

Cost effectiveness Vs Quality. Which one is better for an organisation?

Ours is business organisation.Its a Knowledge driven business. Striking a coherence between cost and the quality is really imperative in order to sustain in the market. Our website accentuates the importance of both .It says"we strive to offer our client best quality service at fair price".
Quality
Quality is the face of the company.The company is known for the deliverable it produces.
Q: Why does it every time happen when Nokia/Siemens launches a product and there is a huge surge in the demand and people are ready to compromise with the cost! ?
An obvious Answer:- These companies have established their brand name for their quality and they are simply known for that.
Q :Why does it every time happen when Big software firms like Infosys,TCS,Accenture bent upon to reach high CMM level(Capability Maturity Model) and Six sigma level?
Answer :Because they Know how important is to have a quality brand name to ensure great sense of service and loyalty to the customers.
Quality definitely helps in retaining faith during weathering times.If one gets in Economics ,the law of Diminishing Margin Utility says every product has certain life cycle .During that life cycle one time frame comes when the rate of returns contributed by the product starts depreciating .During that times quality comes as a rescuer.So Creating a good quality product is always advantageous.
More importantly,In a process industry a good quality assurance department always leads to a cost effective product.Say a manufacturing industry a good quality department if finds a technical glitches in the beginning of manufacturing process,Then whole amount of rework is prevented hence a cost effective product is obtained.
Cost effectiveness.
Cost is important to run the finance of the company.The best characteristic of low cost product is simply that it entices the client.In Tough times like this no customer is loyal to anyone.Offering the low cost with same quality as that of competitors will attract the customer.
Not even that, a cost effective product will build long standing strands with the customer.
Cost effectiveness means how effectively one is using the cost to obtain a product or a deliverable.It should not be construed as a low cost.There are different way of reaching to a finalized product.That product has certain benchmark and standard.The most economical way to reach the product without compromising the quality will lead to a cost effective product.Hence,a cost effective product is noway a bad quality product. It indeed is the economical way of producing the economical product.
According to the research conducted by SERI on the downfall of the investment banks in the financial crisis,The main reason for the collapse of companies like GM was lack of restructuring Plans during their good times .These organisation didn't resort to cost effective measures like Restructuring .Then during weathering times it resulted in absolute Mayhem.Hence cost effective measures like restructuring should always be there at any point in time.
British Petroleum is a company which used to take the service of many IT Vendors for running their business unit system,finance system,inventory management system etc. Now Instead of taking service from many IT vendors they opted to get service from single IT Vendor which ultimately saved their huge cost .Such cost effective measures can really be fruitful in tough times.
Too much cost effectiveness is also an unfavourable aspect of business.Too much cost effective will reduce the margins .The insufficient margin can put you out of the business.That margin which could have been utilized to retain the key employees,future expansion is no more . So It is sometimes a business suicide!!!!

The Birthday gift.

Nice to be back in Delhi.Really,Memories are sweeter than anything.It refreshes,revives ,incites whole charisma when one just thinks of it. I carry with myself the unforgettable perennial memories of visit to southern India.
It is always sweet to have a surprise gift,especially when it is on birthday.It came as a big surprise when my HOD called me up on 17th, to tell me about their plans to send me to witness a PG test of BTG of Power plant.I was flabbergasted to know the flight was scheduled next morning for Bangalore. Bangalore is a place which I always wanted to visit.More importantly,while doing a job a short tour of 7 days is really a rejuvenating process ...It is nice to be outside Delhi free from office work ,what one gets in return is the lavish treatment from the client..hahahah..Apart from this,it imparts great knowledge about culture ,likings,behaviour etc about the distantly located people.

Bangalore's eskon temple and Lal bagh are awesome .Hampi , a historical monumental place near bellari district is a perfect example of amalgamation of hindu and islamic culture. This place is stuffed with Ancient monuments,sculptures,rocks and statues . It was a exhilarating experience to know many thing related to southern India apart from plant operation!!!

Fun, Fun and Fun.This is how I can recapitulate the last 7days .
