BHEL - the journey begins

23 Dec 1981 – The day I joined BHEL, I did not realize that I would learn so much in my life! Be it be in the personal or professional. I owe most of my learning to BHEL.

Initial struggle!

I was thrilled that with my experience of installations on Coal Handling and Ash handling projects, I can do much better in designs department or commissioning. Unfortunately (fortunately, as it would change my life) I was posted in Material Planning department, which I did not like. The work was to calculate the Material required for production. We sit with a huge paper with a matrix of items required month wise for all projects. Generate a Purchase Indent and monitor till it is received and issued. I fought with management to get into design or installation. But it was of no use.

I had no choice, but to accept it as it is and I started looking into ways to improve Material Planning.
