Of course, you are most welcome to "DOWNLOAD" any documents from this website from a "DOWNLOAD KNOWHOW" Page!

 

Caution: The document that you upload must belong to your own organization (—even if it is not in use, currently). While "Approving" your documents, our WebMaster will try to locate the name of your Organization somewhere on that document, by way of proof that it belongs to you. Please refrain from uploading documents that belong to other Companies/Organizations, or copied/downloaded from other websites.

To ensure "Authenticity / Appropriateness / Usefulness" of uploaded documents, each will get viewed/approved by our WebMaster, before getting published. When approved, you will get an Email intimation. If "Rejected" for some reason, our email will say, "Why?".

You may wonder:

Is my effort "Sharing of Know-how", helping any MSME?

Are any of them downloading what I am sharing here?

Stop wondering!

Everytime some MSME downloads one of your documents, you will get an E-mail Alert.

Such an alert should encourage you to contribute more. And persuade others - Companies/Organizations to REGISTER and contribute. We need your help to spread the word!

 FAQ.

Q: What is the purpose of this website?

Ans: Purpose is to empower 40+ million MSME of India, by enabling them to improve their own manufacturing/selling/Management processes.

 

Q: How will this happen?

Ans: By allowing MSME to download (free) from this website, documents which large/successful Indian Companies use in their own organizations.

 

Q: What is required to download these documents? Is there a "price/fee" to be paid?

Ans: There is no "price/fee".

If you are registered as MSME on this site, you can download any number of documents, absolutely FREE, at any time.

Your only obligation is to "Rate" that document for its "Usefulness" (to your organization), before downloading.

 

Q: Can an Organization, do both? i.e.

·            Contribute/donate a document

·            Download a document

Ans: Sure! To do both, you will need to register your MSME at page: "REGISTER AS CONTRIBUTOR"

But, if you have registered at page: "REGISTER AS MSME" then you can only download (not upload).

 

Q: If, initially, I have registered as MSME, can I, later change to "Register as contributor"?

Ans: No problem!

As soon as you login at page: "REGISTER AS CONTRIBUTOR",

you will find some portions of that Registration form, duly filled in with information submitted by you earlier. Now fill in the rest of the fields and [SUBMIT]!

Ans: Of course, you will!

Q: Can I communicate with the Contributor?

Ans: On "Download" pages, just click on, "Email to Contributor" to send your query/request for help.

 

 

TECHNOLOGY CONSIDERATIONS: (THIS IS NOT A Webpage)

  1. Cloud-based hosting?
  2. Mobile friendly website? Can "REGISTRATION" & "DOWNLOAD" be done from a Smart Phone?
  3. Database structure: SQL? or NoSQL?
  4. ASP.NET (V 4.0)?
  5. Keyword-based Search possible? Image search?
  6. Live RSS feeds from "Narendra Modi-in" / "MakeinIndia.com" / Twitter feeds / NITI Aayog?
  7. Online chat facility? Communicating through E-mails?
  8. Document Parsing? Keywords highlighting? Synonyms? through AI?
  9. Feed-JIT / LSTAT Counters? Current No. of Visitors on this page? Counter?
  10. SMS / Email Alerts? Subscription for "Latest Docu Arrival"?
  11. "Document Recommendation" System based on "Keyword Searches"?
  12. Use of Dropbox / MEGA UPLOAD? For storing 400 page long, huge documents?

 

 Weak motivation for Contributors!

·                No guarantee to find right content for a given need or a given “situation.”

·                Too generic, all-purpose → difficult to believe → “Discovery”-based → luck-based.

·                No “experts” to curate contents, or to generate or source right contents from known places or sources.

·                APQC-like model could have helped perhaps.

·                No idea as to how to popularize it. Mere endorsement by Govt. or one/two big players will not work.

·                It is not clear that what knowledge or information “Big Companies” have, has great relevance to MSME. Perhaps within MSME itself, there may be well-run companies who can be more helpful.

·                Big companies will need to somewhat remove confidential info, some clauses (legal) etc. before uploading. It is not straightforward; time, effort & motivation is required to do that.

 

 Emails to Shri Amitabh Kant

Background of www.EmpowerMSME.com

==============================================================================================

My Email to Shri Amitabh Kant / Secretary - DIPP (17Nov2014):

Dear Amitabh,

BENCH-MARKING INDIA INC

Launching of Makelnlndia 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  I  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 Make in India web site?         

·                for  25 million  SME to download  /  modify  and implement   in their  own  companies?

 

I am sure  if our  PM 1  Shri  Narendra Bhai    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  a ny of its"   Trade  Secrets  /  Patents"

But if Make in India    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.

 Regards,

Amitabh   Kant

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 Nark  ( 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  Modijl  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  ell

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:

Awaiting   your  response
