NETPROPHETS CYBERWORKS Staying Ahead in the Game via its Exceptional Smart IT Solutions

AMITABH VIRA

CEO, NetProphets Cyberworks

kajal Dobhal | Business Connect

or this brand- new edition, we have brought to you an exclusive story of a company that for the past two decades has grasped the imagination of an amazing roster of International and Indian clients who partnered with it to enhance the business outcomes via considerable tech-investments. The exclusiveness of this brand has propelled us to promote it at the cover page in this publication. As our editorial team sat down with Mr. Amitabh Vira, the Chief Executive Officer for a free-wheeling conversation to converse about the business portfolio, vision and a lot more, it was thrilling to come across some exemplary business insights by him. So, let’s dive into the story that started with the establishment of NetProphets Cyberworks, by Mr. Amitabh Vira 20 years ago when the Y2K fever was at its peak. COMPANY OVERVIEW Technology, Design and Data Science are the key components that help NetProphets Cyberworks develop matchless customer experience and engagement. Its integrated business solutions involves a broad spectrum of technology services such as — Information and Process Automation, Application Development, Digital Services including Immersive Interactive Technologies and Data Science. The company is focussed on building tech-platforms for its reputable clientele to automate seamless business flows.“Today, we have a team of over 200 members, all of whom combine to make us an organization capable of providing the required IT consultancy, new product innovation and technical development for our clients,”claims the Founder-CEO, addressing the business portfolio.

www.businessconnectindia.in | Vol. 4 | Special Edition August 2021 INDIA

THE X- FACTOR A continuous application of ideas and energies has allowed NetProphets to create smart IT solutions for its clients and stay ahead of its competition. The endeavour of the company is to drive business process efficiencies and revenues for their clients. Formulating innovative processes by comprehending client’s need and recommending a perfect combination of custom development and product integrations, are their key USPs “The fact that we put technology consulting ahead of technical delivery, I believe, is a distinguishing factor from our peers,” asserts Mr. Vira. Apart from this, there are two assets that give them a competitive edge in the market — a highly skilled team of over 200+ members and a roster of exciting clients. To them, being in sync with the expectations of their clients is what motivates them stay ahead of the curve. “We constantly train new talent, do our research, create architecture for our client prospects and show them the benefit of our proposed solutions. Also, we want clients who believe in us to manage change. Quality and Trust are its by-products. This is what we love to do,” states Amitabh Vira, further accentuating the case.

Ensuring a robust foothold in this space, NetProphet’s business functions cut across B2B and B2C lines and it has emerged as an exemplary technology consultant to its clients that is followed by being reliable development partners for them. But, as it is said every great vision has its fair share of hardships, NetProphets vision has had its associated challenges to stay ahead of new technology frameworks and concepts. This has propelled them to create a 2-pronged strategy-

SYNERGY WITH THE TECH-TRENDS

As the world witnesses a major shift in technology that has gone from being a back-office function to a front-action driver of businesses, NetProphets has become a prominent enabler to the tech functions of the modern world. “It is now EdTech – not Education. Fintech – not Banking. Healthtech – not Healthcare and so on. This trend will continue. With retail, hospitality, banking and all traditional industry verticals being driven by Technology as their differentiator. We are industry agnostic, of course this is a double-edged sword and critics will tell us to focus. But the way we are structured by way of talent and what has consistently been rewarding for us to continue to stick to our knitting. And that is to enable businesses – no matter what industry – to digitise and drive transformation,” explained the Founder.

1. TALENT ACQUISITION & TRAINING- With their Centre of Excellence mission driven by their Project and Team leaders, the company strains every nerve to identify emerging tech trends while developing an internal training curriculum. Their MAD training program (Modernising App Development) keeps streaming to upskill an internal team of developers, a process that is core to their vision. 2. PARTNERSHIPS AND ALLIANCES- Owing to their alliance partnerships, they are capable of identifying a combination of external skills that can easily be integrated into the client offering as any modern, tech- solution integrates enterprise thinking, mobile first integration, data intelligence and consumer-centric immersive technologies. They firmly reckon that intense partnerships can develop effective, smart solutions. 11

www.businessconnectindia.in | Vol. 4 | Special Edition August 2021 INDIA

R&D AT THE PROMINENCE As per Mr. Vira, R&D has proved to be quite significant for their offerings to benefit their clients in the best possible manner. He went ahead by providing some examples, “A few years back our data scientists found that sales of perennial goods on the shelves of our marquis client, FabIndia, was erratic. We created an experimental solution that predicted sales and reported stock-outs. That further drove the FabIndia supply team to pre-order the items and ensure timely delivery to the stores. A simple experiment that we later reported to management quietly became a formalised system across product categories. It drove the story of out-of-sight-out-of-mind and the sales of perennial products became a significant contributor to turnover.” Furthermore, their work with Norton LifeLock was a resultant of almost 6 months of R&D. It was looking at the vast Indian market without International credit cards. Hence, the company collaborated with the brand’s US and Singapore teams to develop an end-to-end payment facilitation framework with reconciliation engines to accept payments and reconcile with the internal ERP systems of Norton LifeLock. And today, NetProphets is the authorised online partner of regional sales for them. Recently, they have collaborated with a UK partner to become a co-developer of a mobile application that can diagnose and treat epilepsy patients globally. This app will pioneer the healthcare space being a one of a kind tech platform to diagnose and treat patients over the mobile app.

www.businessconnectindia.in | Vol. 4 | Special Edition August 2021 INDIA

“ Such examples are

at the heart of our work. It sets us apart, keeps the business exciting and at the same time puts tremendous pressure on our operational systems. Undeniably, R&D is integral to our growth,” emphasized Mr.Vira. AMITABH VIRA

CEO, NetProphets Cyberworks

RELIANCE ON DIGITAL AMENITIES “Continuous adoption and improvement is a large part of our operational conversations, and the digital tools and systems that drive our daily operations,” opines the CEO. He further adds that without internal digitisation these Covid months would have been a disaster. As most of their internal infrastructure and processes are cloud-based, they were able to work from home effortlessly, to become a permanent part of their culture. Along with this, their bespoke time and project management tools help them create milestones of delivery, allot tasks and monitor performance. This facilitates collaboration among remote teams on a real-time basis. 13

www.businessconnectindia.in | Vol. 4 | Special Edition August 2021 INDIA

DATA WAREHOUSING AND ANALYTICS COMPETENCE With their dedicated team of professionals, their Data warehousing capabilities has ensured Oracle, Microsoft and Mongo DB expertise They have built middleware platforms for data analytics and data mining which was the essential component of their Media Management product for their client — Reckitt Benckiser in the UK. Later, they formulated an IPTV solution utilizing data warehousing and analytics. “You see, it’s an integral component of a larger system and we customise our delivery as per the requirements of the overall solution ecosystem,” conveys the CEO. SUSTAINING THE GLOBAL PANDEMIC From establishing a robust work from home model to effortless remote collaboration, the productivity of team NetProphets was never hampered even amid the most challenging times. Though the real challenge was the absence of real-time awareness on daily operations, the management primarily relies upon individual accountability and process. “In many ways this has strengthened our teams and empoweres the younger members to be more responsible and accountable for their output,” states the CEO. In sustaining such tough times, their young managers own up to their responsibilities and take up the challenges of working on a 7-day a week, tiring schedule. Every employee collaborates on off – schedule calls and also contributes their services into late hours, which is quite commendable and speaks volume of their positive culture.

www.businessconnectindia.in | Vol. 4 | Special Edition August 2021 INDIA

A CULTURE FOSTERING LEADERSHIP Though the culture at the company is quite informal, the management always strives to maintain a flat structure with a lot of access to senior leadership. They encourage experimentation and innovation among the employees and foster leadership traits in them in best possible manner. NetProphets firmly believes that its workforce is its precious asset and the only way to integrate them is by putting trust in every individual. “The job of our leaders is to play guide and not to play manager. If we succeed in this mission we are free.” Amitabh goes on to say, “ we think we have a work environment that encourages developers to learn and make mistakes. The mission, as far as people is concerned, is to ensure that the youngest member has a chance to express himself and herself within their project,”addressing the culture at work. FEATHERS IN THE CAP In their two-decade journey, they have witnessed a lot, says the Founder. Starting from scratch, without any seed funding, needed constant hard work and their determination has paid off well and today. NetProphets Cyberworks is an eminent name in its niche domain. Recognizing this phenomenal journey, BUSINESS CONNECT lists some noteworthy milestones crossed by them • The first milestone was signing RB and the BBC World, two UK based clients in the first 2 years of having started. • The next was the signing of FabIndia, a household name across India for hand-woven Indian apparels. These businesses allowed them to expand without financial fear and bring on technical leadership of a much greater calibre than themselves. • An IPTV platform created by NetProphets was recognised internationally. • Later, creating a unique solution for Symantec-Norton to leverage an untapped need soon made the firm the online authorised partner in the region. • And now, working with the Govt of India, they have managed to win several awards and certifications working with the Ministry of Skill Development, the MHRD and Department of Transportation, among others. A GLANCE OVER THE FUTURE OUTLOOK The founder CEO now believes that for the firm to scale, focus must be on new markets. They would also like to establish new alliances in terms of product and emerging technologies. Hence, their core focus is going to be on these 3 essential areas of expansion. Moreover, he quotes,“the way forward is to build on the foundation we have created with our most important asset – that is our People. It is now time to capitalise on that asset and create a truly capacity driven firm with an eye on new technology trends and continuous training. If you are good at what you do and stay focussed on the essence of your core, businesses will find you. There will always be ways to strike new partnerships and new project relationships and achieve the next level of scale.” WORDS OF WISDOM BY THE VETERAN

“Be patient. All too often I find youth today to be in a hurry. I would also say assess your personal strengths and weaknesses. We are neither a Sachin Bansal of Flipkart nor a Vijay Shekhar of Paytm. While it’s good to study success it is my advice to study ourselves and create a success model that works within the framework of one’s own capabilities rather than someone else’s. I know this sounds like one of those old-fashioned homilies. But you know, stay the course! Stay positive and the outcome will follow. The course will decide when you need to scale and when you need to exit.”

Arnold Schwarzenegger’s Inspirational Life Story What we face may look insurmountable, but what I learned is that we are always stronger than we know.

Arnold Schwarzenegger When we look around, we see success stories of many people which motivates us to work hard despite the challenges and turbulences in the journey towards success. One such inspirational tale lies in the life of Arnold Schwarzenegger. Born on 30th July 1947 in Austria, Arnold Schwarzenegger started his career from scratch with a not-so-adorable childhood. Nothing could stop the dedicated person in Arnold, not even his family tragedies. The best action hero of all time has faced challenges in nearly every step of his life, but he believed in himself and climbed the ladder of success.

BUILDING YEARS With a phenomenal career, Arnold Schwarzenegger is acclaimed to be the most popular personality alive. Alongside being the best action movie star, Arnold is undoubtedly the most recognized and famous bodybuilder. In his entire childhood, Arnold faced a conflicting relationship with his father under the suspicion of Arnold not being the biological son of Gustav Schwarzenegger, and due to this, he was neglected over his elder brother. Inspired by his father, Arnold pushed himself towards sports from a young age and deep-dived into weight lifting and bodybuilding, and it soon turned into his passion. For the same, Arnold’s mother remained sceptic and thought his son was ill when she saw the pictures of male body builders in his room, for which she even called the doctors.

www.businessconnectindia.in | Vol. 4 | Special Edition August 2021 INDIA

At age 18, Arnold served his compulsory Austrian Army’s one-year service as a tank driver where he was put in a military prison under the charges of insubordination for participating in the Junior Mr. Europe competition. Interestingly, Arnold Schwarzenegger purchased the tank he drove after he became successful. Genuinely speaking, Arnold Schwarzenegger’s age was never a barrier for him to excel in his career. However, he has achieved remarkable milestones at a very young age. Here, one of them is the Mr. Universe competition which he won at his second attempt in 1967 just at the age of 20, making him the youngest person ever to win the competition. After that, he won the same competition thrice. Hereafter, Arnold Schwarzenegger moved to Munich in Germany and attended a business school. There he spelt one of his coaches “I’m going to become the greatest actor”, and the amount of confidence Arnold carried can be seen in the sentence mentioned above. Arnold considered America to be the land of opportunity, and he got the ticket to move to the USA with his Mr. Universe trophy. As soon as he moved to the city of prospects, he left his Austrian accent. • TRAGEDY In 1971, Arnold’s brother, Meinhard, died in a traffic accident, and a year and a half later, Arnold Schwarzenegger lost his father too. Despite possessing a good relationship with brother Meinhard, he did not attend his funeral with the fear of having to face his father with whom he didn’t carry a good relation. • POPULARITY THROUGH MOVIES The evergreen actor’s desire to embark upon the journey of acting was realized after he was cast in Hercules in New Yorkin 1969. He got increasing fame with the 1977 movie name Pumping Iron. Things came to his favour since his 1982 movie role in Conan the Barbarian, after which he was up for the lead position in the sequel Conan the Destroyer. In the same year, Arnold Schwarzenegger played his most famous role of The Terminator. This movie solidified his image as an action hero alongside the popular actor Sylvester Stallone. • PERSONAL LIFE In 1986, Arnold married Maria Shriver of the Kennedy family and lived in Brentwood neighbourhood of Los Angeles in California. Both Arnold and Maria gave birth to four children named Katherine, Christina, Patrick, and Christopher, and in 2011 the couple shockingly opted for separation. Years later, it was discovered that Arnold had another child out of wed lock with the family maid who was born days after Christopher’s birth. Regretting the incident, Arnold said “As inspirational as I am for my accomplishments, my mistakes should also serve as a warning” because this led to family pain and splitting up of the whole family. Today, Arnold Schwarzenegger’s bodybuilding books, his life struggles, and achievements are a great source of motivation and inspiration for everyone.

MAXIMIZING MARKETING WITH QUINTESSTIAL Kriti Anand | Business Connect Entrepreneurship is a challenging endeavour. It does not differentiate between men and women. But women, typically, play multiple roles in life, where entrepreneurship adds to those roles. At the same time, women have to establish their credibility to people. For the Founder of Quintesstial Media and Marketing, this journey was made a little easier with the support of people around her who were positive and professional, and did not let gender biases interfere with their work relationships. In our society, we have a set mindset that only certain jobs are suitable for women and while women might be as ambitious as their male counterparts, they have to work harder to prove themselves. Farheen Shaikh, the Founder and Creative Director of Quintesstial Media and Marketing, has conquered these challenges and risen above them. She establishes that it is just as important to give credence to the fact that women, despite additional challenges, have been keeping up with the pace of the industry. Shifting the narrative from challenges women face, she intends to give

PARTING WORDS FROM FARHEEN SHAIKH, FOUNDER AND CREATIVE DIRECTOR:

“

Do what makes you happy, regardless of what others think, or the fear that might come from trying things out. Success is a long and continuous journey and may be measured in many ways (not just the monetary reward) so don’t loose your values in the process. If you have decided what you exactly want from yourself, then all the hurdles turn out to be the stepping stone towards success. You simply need to be confident and determined towards your goal and above all you must enjoy your work for only that can keep you going and bring out the best in you.

“

FARHEEN SHAIKH | Founder & Creative Director

Opportunities are everywhere, there are no different or special doors for women.

them more credit for standing against the overwhelming opposition at every step of the entrepreneurial life cycle, from fighting cultural perceptions, juggling personal and professional responsibilities, to securing funding and leading their initiatives.

“All we need is a clear vision and a strong will to grab it,” states Farheen Shaikh. There are ups and downs but the joy of attempting something on your own is unparalleled. Each time you struggle and overcome a crisis, you will have beautiful memories to look back and celebrate. Challenges give Farheen reason to work harder than before.

These days the number of women entrepreneurs is increasing considerably. They tend to be more successful, too, because of their trusted status in the community. There is no doubt that there is always an initial struggle, with the majority of the high-level business world still being dominated by men. However, everything is possible, provided one has the determination to take on these challenges.

She says, “We learn from our own experiences in life and that becomes our ideology.” ABOUT QUINTESSTIAL

THE ENTREPRENEURIAL JOURNEY

Quintesstial Media & Marketing is a Digital Marketing Agency based in Pune. As a front-line digital marketing agency, it offers a wide range of services starting from website designing to social media marketing, brand development, graphic designing and much more.

Artists and designers are creative people who touch our hearts through their imagination and creativity which is why visually playing with colors came very natural to Farheen. Farheen’s journey towards entrepreneurship has been for her an amazing learning experience. It has, in many ways, shaped and defined her as a person. It demanded tremendous courage and perseverance. Her struggle as an entrepreneur has been as easy and as difficult as any other person’s. When achieving a dream of owning a startup regardless of gender bias, Farheen believes that the most difficult part is getting started.

Based on the client requirements and keeping up with the market’s pace, the company offers varied creative solutions like video magazines, brand campaigns, motion posters, and videos that have proved a great way for customer retention & engagement. Each of their engagements are tailored to suit every individual client’s needs and goals. Quintesstial believes in connecting with the clients, understanding their ideas and transforming their brand as they have imagined it to be. Every relationship the company builds with a client is markedly different. The company works as their digital marketing partner that only succeeds when they succeed.

While the gender biases never disturbed Farheen, she did face a few challenges while starting up the business. Within days after setting up her first office space and spending about a major part of her savings, she had to move out from the space overnight since the landlady was not happy with the office interiors. Left with a complete setup of office furniture and no space to move in immediately, she had to keep all her furniture in her building’s basement for over a month. In spite of this, she found herself lucky enough: work kept coming in and the ball started rolling once again. Thus, after forty five days, she shifted to a new premise.

Things have changed drastically post the pandemic, and most businesses have realized that the conventional way of marketing their product or services are not enough anymore. Because people are indoors and consuming information online, this is the right time to go all out with digital branding. In the current scenario, Digital Marketing is the ‘only’ most important thing for businesses to reach out to the right audience at the right time. With its clientspecific approach, Quintesstial is one of the most-suited and valuable digital marketing agencies in these times.

Farheen remarks that she has been fortunate to have worked with people who believed in her abilities irrespective of her gender. She believes that everything is possible regardless of a person’s gender, if one is ready to face the challenge:

QUINTESSTIAL’S MILESTONES Under the determined leadership of Farheen, Quintesstial has achieved several milestones in its journey so far. From being nominated for India 500 Startup Awards 2019 to being recognised as one of the most stylish leaders in business by Business View Magazine, the agency has established itself as a trusted and sophisticated digital partner in the industry. It has designed exclusive Magazine & Lookbook Design for celebrities and fashion brands, promotional campaigns for fashion brands in Dubai, London & Germany, editorials for international fashion magazines (London Fashion Week), and been a digital partner for films promotion, among a number of other marked successes.

“When you do something so deliberately & with conviction, you are bound to achieve it!” When a woman starts a business in our country, it is mostly taken as a hobby of hers. Here is the real struggle-in having to prove themselves to overcome this bias. According to the Founder of Quintesstial, women do not need any special status or attention. Working women are as capable and as normal as any other working person. Instead of bringing an agenda of helping women, entrepreneurship should be made ‘normal’ for everyone. For her, it has always been about making things ‘Gender Neutral’. A woman can work as efficiently as anyone else.

Supreme Fashion Accessory

Sunglasses are the ultimate fashion accessory, almost worn by everyone, and without them most wouldn’t leave home. When the sun is glaring off the town and you pick your sunglasses out of your back, once you lip them on, you instantly change your appearance.

Reasons Why Sunglasses Acts More Than Just An Accessory It’s no longer a medical necessity, just a style need. The dreary vision-correcting computer machine revamped surprisingly into a cool and swanky faddish accessory. The rage is so strong that, just for the sake of fashion even people with perfect vision wear lenses.

www.businessconnectindia.in | Vol. 4 | Special Edition August 2021 INDIA

Here are some reasons why, before you head out the door, you’ll want to catch those shades: PROTECT EYES FROM UV RAYS One of the most significant advantages of wearing sunglasses is that they shield the eyes from the sun’s harmful ultraviolet radiation and the fragile skin around them. Exposure to UV can lead to cataracts and cause glaucoma symptoms worse. Moreover, about to 10 per cent of skin cancers are found near the eyes. Choose glasses that cover the eyes entirely and make sure that they have 100 per cent UVA and UVB protection.

PROTECT EYES FROM GLARE Sunglasses not only let you see better when it’s light outside, but they also decrease the amount you need to squint by the cutting back on the sun. Squinting will lead to headaches, exhaustion and eye pressure, as well as the formation over time of fine lines in the skin around the eyes. When you squint, it’s also difficult to see clearly, which can lead to injuries, particularly when driving. Maximum glare safety is offered by polarized sunglasses. DARK ADAPTATION After you are exposed to intense sunshine, sunglasses allow you to refocus your vision. If you will not adapt for long stretches after being exposed to the sun, your night vision may be impaired. You’ll find it hard to see the road while you are riding at night. Riding becomes risky when you haven’t been wearing shades.

Some Top Sunglasses Brands RAY-BAN A debut back in the 1930s, the Ray-Ban Aviator sunglasses made their airline flights more popular, and the legends of the era were pilots. The Italian-based company offer polarised lenses to shield the eyes from sunlight. In the 1980s, with the release of films such as “Top Gun” and “Risky Business,” these glasses gained attention.

MAUI JIM In the early 1980s, Maui Jim sunglasses made their debut at a hotel pool in Maui, Hawaii. By 1988, the mainland was just starting to see them. This sunglasses are built for males and females alike. Many of the models have polarised lenses of varying colours that shield against the sunshine glare. VERSACE In 1978 Versace was started, this Italian fashion house made its debut in Milan, Italy. Versace sunglasses are known for their ornate, female-centred logo, and their wrap around and aviator styles are common. Much of the lenses are polarised to shield the eyes. Some women’s styles involve ornate and lavish details.

Forbes Facility Services Pvt. Ltd. (FFSL) Shares Its Pride On Achieving The Coveted ‘Blue Flag Certification’ FFSL along with the Govt. of India (GOI) proudly confers their joy, on achieving the 8 Blue Flag Certification, in a single attempt. Eight beaches were selected for this acknowledgement, namely Shivrajpur (Gujarat), Ghoghla (Diu), Kasarkod (Karnataka), Kappad (Kerala), Padubidri (Karnataka), Rushikonda (Andhra Pradesh), Golden (Odisha) and Radhanagar (Andaman & Nicobar Islands). FFSL stands proud of managing three of these internationally acclaimed beaches - Shivrajpur (Gujarat), Ghoghla (Diu) and Kasarkod (Karnataka). FFSL was working with the Ministry of Environment (GOI) on this project for the last four years. Managing a beach isn’t a cakewalk, as it requires a result-oriented framework and skilled people, which unfortunately wasn’t available. Hence, FFSL had to start from scratch, working on building an adroit team, convincing the locals about the need and efficiency of beach cleaning. Another thing they did was, acknowledging every cleaner as an ambassador of the Blue Flag Project, which deliberately charged them up. FFSL fostered all kinds of maintenance and associated supports to every crewmate, who put their hard work and sweat into the fruition of this project.

THE BLUE FLAG CERTIFICATION

The coveted blue flag recognition is the world’s foremost certification that covers Beaches, Marinas, and Sustainable Boating Tourism Operators. The accreditation includes stringent quality parameters environmental, educational, safety, and accessibility, that has to be followed without any exception. The international jury of this certification included eminent members from the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), United Nations World Tourism Organization (UNWTO), Foundation for Environmental Education (FEE) and International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). The certification is conveyed conferred, by the Denmark-based non-profit Foundation for Environmental Education.

Its quality and commitment to solutions are fortified with certifications, namely ISO:9001, 18001, 14001 and 22000. Now, with the 8 Blue Flag recognition, it’s aiming to become more polished. FFSL carries the same vision as its parent body, “A Happy, Healthy and Safe Pollution-Free Environment based on Trust and Lasting Relationships with Customers”. When the project was still on paper, FFSL had projected a significant infrastructure development required for its fruition. This made them bring Eureka Forbes on board not only for being its parent body but for being the foremost provider of infrastructure. Syncing with the parent body gave FFSL a major upper hand with respect to technical support. “It was a great opportunity where the parent company and the sister concern had jointly taken up a project and successfully completed it. So, that gives us a great sense of achievement or synergy within the group”, acknowledges Rajiv Julka, one of the leading executives in this project.

MAJOR CHALLENGES IN THE PROJECT

Convincing locals about the project and marshalling a team of like-minded people, were the two significant challenges, for FFSL. Since this was a pilot project, only four beaches were initially selected that too under strict criteria. The focus was to revamp these beaches to an international level. The locals around the beaches had a stringent ambiguity regarding this project; as such, convincing them that this is something worth doing and has a definite significance on the environment was a daunting task. However, FFSL’s core motivation drove their energy; first, they did in-depth research on what they are trying to achieve. Then, they forayed to make the locals understand the project and build a team of people, having the will and passion towards it. Around 400-500 arduous people were selected (98% local), and FFSL put a considerable effort into training them. Govt. bodies like the BMC and the Collector also took a great interest in the project, which helped them addressing compliances.

STURDY DESPITE THE COVID OUTBREAK

The manufacturing space was widely affected, by the pandemic. Whether its economy, employment or movement of materials, everything faced an unprecedented halt. On top of that, the physical movement was strictly restricted, further increasing the problem by a level. However, FFSL carried a boiling desire to see the successful completion of this project. As such, with an iron will the entire team worked meticulously towards their individual roles and responsibilities. People working at the sites were safeguarded with all preventive measures and Govt. guidelines. Being a significant part of the Country’s economy, some of their services were permitted, with special guidelines off course. FFSL leveraged on digital communication to monitor the daily progress of work and further to stay unified.

Along with the prized milestones that include PAN India presence across 100+ cities, a client base 260 + at 400+ sites, 95% client retention rate, 6000+ dedicated people, ability to serve 65000+ meals/day, managing over 72 million sq ft. of structures, 100% compliance norms and an eminent overseas presence, FFSL has been bestowed with many revered accolades.

With a corporate lineage of 150 years, and exceptional maintenance of three ‘Blue Flag’ beaches Shivrajpur (Gujarat), Ghoghla (Diu) and Kasarkod (Karnataka), FFSL sets eye on GOI’s intent to develop - 100 more beaches. The effective transformation of these three beaches has made the locals aware, and they’re approaching the GOI To keep working on this activity. This growing demand is building a propelling pipeline for FFSL. Working in synergy with Environment Ministry and GOI, FFSL envisions to revamp the face of - 40 more beaches, in the coming years.

BE INVENTIVE, YET FOLLOW BEARINGS. Associations giving awards might be checking on several entries. In this manner, make your accommodation stand apart with inventive and brief composition and materials. Try not to handle the accommodation alone; approach your group for help in exploring the language and helping your accommodation be particular. Try not to get so made up for a lost time in your accommodation that you neglect to follow bearings. Severe necessities might be spread out for the accommodation and conveyance of your pieces. Follow these headings precisely. You would prefer not to exclude yourself since you neglected something.

More individuals = more successes!

Spam your clients interminably with messages about your rewards, everybody needs to realize they’ve picked the best provider all things considered. It’s incredible to reconnect with existing clients and new possibilities.

ASSEMBLE CREDIBILITY Winning an award is an approval of your organization’s execution or crucial. – you were assessed by an expert and autonomous gathering also was esteemed a victor. Indeed better – you can affirm you are a victor essentially by staying an identification to your temple blunder business. Utilize that identification taking all things

It’s a learning procedure, and you’ll develop and learn as you do entries all the more as often as possible. What’s more, when you do at last win, ensure the world knows. Winning awards isn’t about the trophy; it’s about the gloating rights, all things considered! 39
