Professional Accomplishments

Year 2016-17:

√ Done effective cost estimation of turbine and generator components to reach the tendering

and marketing team target to bag all orders under bidding in current competitive

environment in India.

√ As a result we successfully became L1 in a bid for 3X660 MW Ghatampur Power Project,

2X660 MW Obra Project & 2X660MW Jawaharpur Project. These all projects bagged by our

team in a row created hat-trick having value of 700 MUSD.

√ Our Team managed to reach near target of GE Power goal to book order of 1Billion USD.

√ Simplified the process of monitoring and controlling cost for projects under execution.

√ Involved in the team who under implementation of Abradable coatings in turbine to increase

its performance, now working as leader from Sanand to implement it.

Year 2015-16:

√ Successfully completed Kakrapar project with a targeted cost reduction on time.

√ Successfully received Kakrapar nuclear project repairing job order and Ramagundam rotor

retrofit job.

√ Established Casing, rotor and blades cost models to do automatic calculation for cost of

components based on basic inputs.

√ Successfully became L1 in a bid for 2X800 MW Telangana Power Project.

√ Simplified the process of taxes, duties, contingencies and overheads calculation.

√ In cost reduction idea sharing programme (F4G and GP-30) successfully got clearance from

R&D team to further work on implementation of design change of Casted inner casing to

fabrication.

Year 2014-15:

√ Monitored the execution project Kudgi 3X800 MW and Meja 2X 660 MW Projects and

maintained the projects within the budget by implementing cost reduction measures.

√ Successfully completed the first unit of Kudgi 3X800 MW turbine modules within the budget

provided from Project Management team.
