DIPP
( 17 Nov 2014 ) :
--------------------------------------------------------
Dear Amitabh ,
BENCH-MARKING
INDIA INC
Launching
of MakeInIndia web site was a great initiative
It can be made greater if its scope gets expanded to enable millions of SME (
Small Medium Enterprises ) to quickly learn / absorb the best Manufacturing /
Management practices of India's most successful companies
Over 20 / 30 / 40 years , these companies have developed / evolved , some of
the best practices in different functional areas , such as :
* Project Planning / Execution
*
Financing / Fund Raising
* Long
Term Strategy
* Cost
Accounting
*
Capital Budgeting
*
Dealership Network
* Supply
Management
*
Subcontracting / Outsourcing
*
Vendor Development
*
Statistical Quality Control
*
Tendering
* Human
Resource Development
*
Maintenance Management
*
Logistics Planning
*
Salary / Wages Structuring......etc
In each of these Functional Areas , these Companies have created :
* Standard Office Procedures
*
Approved Shop Practices
*
Operation Manuals
* Forms
( Online / Offline )
*
Documentation
*
Software Tools
*
Brochures / Pamphlets
*
Agreements / Contracts
* Legal
Undertakings / Notices
* Board
Resolutions
* PERT
Charts
*
Process Monitoring Graphs......etc
And which are these " Successful " Companies ?
* L&T / Reliance / Birla Group / Adani Group / Infosys / Wipro
/ and hundreds of others
Can they be persuaded to share these data by uploading on MakeInIndia
web site ?
-
for 25 million SME to download / modify and implement in their own companies ?
I am sure if our PM , Shri Narendrabhai Modi , makes such a request to ASSOCHAM / FICCI / CII and other similar
organizations , these companies would gladly come forward to share with the
rest of the Indian Corporate , the KNOWLEDGE /
WISDOM that lies captured in the above mentioned documents /
manuals
It is high time , we think " Out
Of Box "
It is time to convert Private Intellectual
Property ( PIP ) , into National
Intellectual Property ( NIP )
I am not suggesting that any Company should reveal any of its " Trade
Secrets / Patents "
But if MakeInIndia
has to become a resounding success , successful companies must undertake to
mentor 25 million SME

Dear Hemen,
This is a mobile first initiative. The site has to be kept extremely
light in content. We will be happy to do it on
DIPP.com. Too much content will make it too heavy.

Amitabh Kant

Dear Mr. Parekh,
Thanks. Greatly appreciate it.

Subject: YOUR CLARION CALL TO START
UPS
Dear Amitabh :
It was with great interest that I read your
article ( India Start Up On The Path To
Self-Reliance ), in yesterday’s ET
You wrote :
“ The government is growing more and more
cognizant of the fact that it should be facilitative
and act as a catalyst to provide greater
momentum to this movement “
In his speech yesterday , Shri Modiji spoke of the resolve to build a “ New India “ by 2022 , and how everyone can – and
must – contribute
That reminded me of my proposal ( see attachment ) to launch a portal for “ knowledge / expertise
“ transfer from successful large organizations to 51
million MSME of India
I am happy to inform that Shri A M Naik ( Chairman ,
L&T ) has agreed to allocate necessary resources for development
of a portal named : www.EmpowerMSME.com
When ready by end
of next month , our idea is to persuade ASSOCHAM
to take-over its hosting / maintenance / marketing
We feel ASSOCHAM
, with its membership of large organized sector
companies , is ideally placed to persuade / motivate them to come
forward with uploading their KNOWLEDGE
DOCUMENTS ( see attachment ) on
this portal
I would highly appreciate your
suggestions / guidance in this matter
Is it possible to persuade Shri
Modiji to launch this ?
With Regards,

Dear Amitabh :
While being
interviewed on ET-NOW
last evening re urgency of Job Creation ,
you said , with your usual straight talk :
“ We need to
fire-up our economy on all cylinders , including MSME
, to boost exports “
I thought of
keeping you informed that L&T engineers will
give me final demo
this Friday , of :
www.EmpowerMSME.com
I hope to send to
you a link , next week for your viewing this platform and for getting your views / suggestions
A colleague
suggested that , instead of approaching ASSOCHAM for hosting / managing / promoting this
site , may be we ought to consider approaching CII
I would appreciate
your guidance on this

Dear Amitabh :
Indian Express ( 23 Aug ) carries a report which reads :
NITI Aayog CEO Amitabh Kant will Wednesday launch the “ Mentor India Campaign “, a strategic
nation-building initiative to
engage leaders who can nurture and guide students at more than 900 Atal
Tinkering Labs
The concept behind .. www.EmpowerMSME.com....
, is very similar , viz : mentoring
of MSME by managers of successful organized sector Companies
You will be happy to know that :
REGISTRATION database in EmpowerMSME has been kept
same as in MSME.gov.in website , which to my
knowledge , has by now , 44.4 lakh registrations
This means , if
the two databases are synchronized ( with permission from Ministry for MSME ) , then from the very first
day itself ,
· Email ALERTS can be sent out to these 44.4
lakh MSMEs ,the moment any Government Ministry / Department / Agency , uploads any DOCUMENT ( Circular / Notice / Procedure / Tender etc ) , on www.EmpowerMSME.com !
And not only that
Any of those “ ALERT Recipients “ could just click on the name of the Government Officer
concerned ( who has uploaded
that DOCUMENT ) , and respond immediately !
I believe such collaboration between ASSOCHAM ( who should host / manage
EmpowerMSME ) and the Government , would bring unforeseen BENEFITS to our MSME , which
contribute 45 % of India’s manufacturing OUTPUT and 40 % of
its export ( - apart from 8 % of our GDP )
It is for this reason that I request your help in getting Shri Modi to inaugurate /
launch , this portal ( - of course , at a
time convenient to him )
If required , I
can come to Delhi , towards end Sept and show you the actual working
of EmpowerMSME
If there are any questions , please phone :
( M ) 0 – 98,67,55,08,08 ( L ) 022 – 262,00,234
Awaiting your response
