AMN ,
I have no doubt that L&T will win this bid , given
the expertise that you built ( starting with Group 2 ) . over the years

Remembering Admiral Rickover !
Business
Line ( 05 June ) carries following news report :
“
Reliance , L&T vying for Rs 25,000 cr defence deal “
“ RDEL and L&T have been asked to submit the bids by
June 22
As
per the RFP, the first ship will have to be delivered within four years and the
remaining in the next seven years from the time the contract is awarded “
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Decades
ago , Admiral Rickover ( US Navy ) introduced the concept of PERT and insisted
that all future bids ( for Navy Contracts ) be accompanied by a PERT chart
If Defence Acquisition Council wants to ensure that this procurement
does not meet the fate of many of our earlier attempts to develop indigenous
technologies , where a 4 year project went on for 24 years , then DAC should seriously consider my following
suggestion ( earlier sent as email to all Policy Makers )
Friday, 4 December 2015
Economic
Times ( 12 Oct 2015 ) carries a report titled :
"
Panel set up for Innovation in Govt Projects "
As
per this report, the Prime Minister has put together a team that will decide,
-
how government projects can be executed using cutting edge technologies
and practices
The
empowered committee for Innovative Collaborations was set up to incorporate the
very latest solutions that science and technology has to offer
My suggestions :
*
When any Ministry submits any Project Proposal for Cabinet
approval , it must be accompanied by a PERT ( Program Evaluation and Review
Technique ) chart , clearly showing all the " Activities " lying
along the CRITICAL PATH
(
earlier known as the CRITICAL PATH METHOD )
That
PERT Chart must accompany a tabulation showing , for each " Activity
",
# Pessimistic Time
# Optimistic Time , and the
# Most likely Time
Since Admiral Rickover , introduced this mandatory
requirement for awarding tender to build the first nuclear submarine, some
50 years ago , all US government departments follow this procedure for all govt
contracts
*
Insist that all the government departments / contractors, responsible for
execution of any of these "activities", update the PERT chart
status online on the web site of the Project Monitoring Group
* PERT charts for all the projects should be made
visible to the general public
* If there is any " slippage " in any activity
lying on the CRITICAL PATH , the name of the department or contractor
responsible , must appear in bold RED letters , against that activity
This
is the only INNOVATION that we need , to ensure that the projects get completed
in time and within budget
