DESCRIPTION

Tecnova is a Management Consultancy firm, which assists foreign companies to leverage the India advantage. While India has proven itself in the Information Technology (IT) arena, its emergence as a base for sourcing Engineering products and Design Services is relatively unknown. They believe that sourcing from India gives an opportunity to reduce costs as well as risks. Some of the factors, which makes India an excellent sourcing destination include:

 

• Quality-India is the only Asian country having 2,750 companies with ISO certifications. It also has 5 Deming award winning companies while China has none.

• Total product development solutions including engineering design capabilities.

• Cost of select processes such as value added precision forgings, castings etc. is highly competitive even when compared to China.

• Options to source in low volume and high variety.

Since there has been a shift of sourcing from China, India has emerged as an important hub for Sourcing engineering components for a number of global companies. Over 50 global companies have already set up international purchasing offices in India. Some of these include General Electric, General Motors, Toyota, Caterpillar, Daimler Chrysler, Eaton, Hyundai, John Deere, Ford Motor, Volvo, Cummins, Piaggio as well as others like Dana, Delphi and AB Electrolux. Around 150 global companies are expected to establish a presence by 2010.Some of the components being outsourced from India include gear shits both hydraulic and mechanical, piston rings, metal, cold rolled steel, forgings, needle roller bearings, ferrous and non-ferrous casting, sheet metal components, and auto electrical such as wiring harness etc.

To quote Michael Huber, CEO Daimler Chrysler India: "There are Indian suppliers who can make world-class products at 20-25 per cent lower costs vis-ŕ-vis their counterparts in developed countries." Daimler Chrysler sourced components worth 70 million euros in 2003 and will increase it to 100 million euros in 2004.

They believe that Tecnova can assist the company seize this opportunity and in turn make a significant impact on the organization’s bottom-line. Tecnova can assist the company to identify/develop vendors to meet the objectives and can establish the sourcing partnership in India by way of:

• Identification & evaluation of vendors.

• Conduct trial and joint assessment analysis with target vendors.

• Assist in finalizing commercial production.

Over 125 Fortune 1000 companies have availed of Tecnova’s Consulting services worldwide. These include: Polarcup(Finland), SCA Hygiene (Sweden), Sobelcard (Belgium), Bekaert (Belgium), Chr.Hensen (Denmark), Leo Pharmaceuticals (Denmark), MGE (France), Teuco Guzzini (Italy).
