Hi Friends,

Even as I launch this today ( my 80th Birthday ), I realize that there is yet so much to say and do. There is just no time to look back, no time to wonder,"Will anyone read these pages?"

MakeInIndia as an ACTION - MONITORING PLATFORM


Dear  Siddharth ,


In itself , MakeInIndia web site is a great initiative where Foreign Companies can find , almost all the info re Investment Opportunities in India

But can we turn MakeInIndia , into something far more effective ( in attracting Foreign Investments ) than a mere " Source of Information "  ?

For example , can it be made into a " Hand - Holder " for a Foreign Investor , all the way till he actually starts production in India  ?

Can ADMIN page of MakeInIndia be made to look like a ,

>    Flight Deck of a fighter plane  ?

>    Dashboard of a Supertanker  ?

>   Control Room of a Power Station /  Refinery  ?

With DIPP officers constantly watching ( on the ADMIN page ) , the activities taking place ( eg: Registrations on MakeInIndia web site  and  Messages being blasted from B2B web site )

And then assigning a specific officer to act as the GOD FATHER of each Foreign Company registering  and requesting some kind of " Assistance " ( see Section I of FORM DESIGN )

The ADMIN page should have :

>      Year / Month / Date wise ,  search and display

>     Foreign Company-Name wise , search and display

>     Indian Company Name wise , search and display

>     God-father Name wise , search and display

>     Foreign  Country - wise , search and display

>    Type of Assistance Requested-wise , search and display

>    Message-Recipient Indian Company-wise , search and display


Some 50 years ago , when Admiral Rickover ( of US Navy ) , floated a tender for the first nuclear warship , he insisted that only bids accompanied with a PERT chart , will get considered

He understood that building a nuclear warship is a PROJECT , where PERT ( Project Evaluation and Review Technique ) was the key to timely completion

He was right  !

Since then , each and every major US Govt tender insists on the bidder to submit a PERT chart

This is a major reason , most US Govt projects do get completed ON TIME

It is no different with a Foreign Investment Project - which , in my opinion , must be accompanied with a PERT chart , clearly displaying , the CRITICAL PATH

There is no insurmountable difficulty in monitoring each Foreign Investment Proposal on MakeInIndia , using a PERT chart

If India wants to improve its , " Ease of Doing Business " rank from 142 to 42 , this could be THE way forward

Please do not hesitate to phone me ( 0-98,67,55,08,08 ) , if I could be of any help

with regards ,
