OPERATIONS OFTHE COMPANY

 

The operations of the company, compared to last year, have shown higher revenues and profitability. The increased profitability is due to more efficient operations coupled with effective cost control measures.

 

 

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS REPORT

 

Industry Structure and Developments:

 

The Company  has proven track record in this segment of IT  industry  and  related  technology  practices. Company has shown  capability  of  handling  projects  of  large  size.  Your  Company  also  has  a  track  record   of  successfully   developing  and  sustaining  such  large  projects  in   the Government Sector. There has been significant increase in its customer base  and  revenues  from repeat business. The Company`s focus  on  e-Governance  industry has been expanding and has not seen any significant changes in the  strategy,  as  such.  The procurement processes by customers  are,  by  and large, unchanged and may not undergo radical changes. Govt, customers  have now  become  more  sensitive towards investment in IT.  The  intent  of  e-Governance  is  to accelerate the automation of  government  processes  for making them easily and transparently accessible to the citizen.  Government customers prefer the computerization projects to be "outcome" based  rather than  "input"  based projects. This is beneficial to the company  as  that makes  the  competition healthier by eliminating unfair  competition  which relies  more on price undercutting, rather than "outcome" of  the  project. There  are  more  visible  implementations  of  G2C  and  G2C  e-Government projects,  in  India  which  increases the confidence  of  the  other  eGov champions who get encouraged to undertake such projects.

 

 

Existing Opportunities and Outlook:    

 

As outlined in the MDA of last annual report, the following Initiatives in Information Technology Sector would facilitate the growth of  e-Government segment of the IT industry.

 

* National e-Governance Plan (NeGP)
 
* State Wide Area Networks (SWANs)
 
* Common Service Centres (CSCs)
 
* Community Information Centres (CIC)
 
* Creating Digital Opportunity
 
These developments would result in simplifying the process of deployment of e-Gov project, in addition to reducing the costs of the implementation.  It would  also  reduce  the Total Cost of Ownership of  the  projects.  As an overall  impact of these developments, the e-Gov industry will get  a  major boost.

                                                            

 

BUSINESS THREATS:
 
E-Governance  initiatives  face  a long list of  challenges.  There  is  no significant  change in these parameters. The list of challenges range  from technology   management,   process   re-engineering,   sustenance,   change management,  manpower,  development  of infrastructure, etc.  Many  of  the challenges mentioned below have been acknowledged and efforts have begun in the direction of addressing the same.
 
Some of the major requirements for success are listed below:
 
* Educating citizens about the value of e-Government.
 
* Ensuring access, to useful information and services.
 
* Coordinating local, regional, and national e-Government initiatives.
 
* Developing methods and performance indicators to assess the services  and standards of e-Government.
 
*  Providing consistent and reliable electricity,  telecommunications,  and Internet Access.
 
* Addressing issues of language and communication.
 
* Including individuals with disabilities in e-Government.
 
*  ICT HR development and sustainable plan in Government’s Road Map for  e-Governance.

 

It is necessary to address these challenges through a well articulated plan  in  a  time  bound manner. That will ensure the  unleashing  of  the  large  potential residing in e-Government opportunity for a Company

 

 

BUSINESS STRATEGIES AND PLANNING:

 

IT  is  slowly  becoming  a  strategic  tool  for  more  transformation  of governments  across the country. Due to nature of the e-Government  sector, the  Business  Strategies and Planning do not undergo  significant  changes over the year. The target customers are those Government Organizations with whom citizen needs to deal at the cutting edge for seeking Citizen Services or  Consumer  Services. This e-Government business is a blend  of  ICT  and Administrative  Reforms.  This aspect necessitates us to posses  some  core domain  strength  for  ensuring success of projects as  well  as  effective assistance to customers in carrying out administrative reforms. The current business focus is on niche domains like providing e-Governance solutions to Municipal  Bodies  (G2B and G2C); CRM Solution for  Electricity  Distribution Companies  (G2C) and Automation of Billing, Accounting and  Collection  for Water  Distribution  Authorities  required  for  providing  Subject  Matter Expertise  required  for ERP implementation in large  Govt.  Organizations. This  practice  also  includes services for  enabling Change  Management` during  and after "Go Live" of the ERP implementation. This skill is  found to  be  critical for eGov clients for sustaining the  investment  in  e-Gov projects. This skill coupled with ABM`s overall eGov expertise is unique in the  industry.  Initial  few  years  of  their operations  were  focused  in developing  in-depth  domain knowledge in chosen areas  and  building  eGov solutions  with  proven track record that can be replicated with  ease  and offer best domain practices to customers.

 

In  last  two  years  they have been successful  in  achieving  some  of  the objectives  within  Maharashtra.  They  now plan  to  focus  on  scaling  the operation  at  the  national  level. Business  Development  Team  has  been appointed for addressing geographies other than Maharashtra. Alliances with other  IT  Companies  are also being established  for  mutually  beneficial objectives of business growth in other states.
