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?"

A STUDENT PROJECT


Dear VHI,


Some time back , you wrote that you have requested your Director – Operations , to examine the possibility of your MBA / Engg / Comp Science students to undertake a project to develop a Technology  Platform to find a holistic solution to the traffic , based on my blog :


There was a time when “ Case Studies “ of large companies , were part of teaching method of all management colleges
May be , this is still so

But have you ever heard of a “ Case Study “ of a Management Institution being part of curriculum of all other management institutions , world wide ?

Because , that “ Case Study “ illustrated how those students went about solving a “ Real Life Problem “ faced by the entire World ?

And , in the process of finding that “ Universally Applicable Solution “ , how these students successfully managed to get on board , the following stake-holders :
·         Vehicle Owners
·         Vehicle Manufacturers and their Professional / Trade Bodies ( eg : SIAM / SMEV etc )
·         Regional Transport Authorities
·         State Transport Ministries
·         Central Transport Ministry
·         Manufacturers of RFID and other sensors
·         Public Transport Operators
·         Fleet Operators
·         Taxi Operators ( Uber – Ola etc )
·         Air Traffic Control Authority
·         Drone Operation Authority
·         Maritime Operations Authority
·         Police Authorities
·         ISRO
·         NITI Aayog
·         Numerous Indian Start Ups working on “ Vehicle Tracking Systems “
·         Mobile phone manufacturers who will switch over to NaviC based GPS

I am sure , this is not an exhaustive list

Here is an opportunity for your Institute to set a precedent for academics contributing to solving real / urgent issues

Regards,
