AVID's consultants use proven methodology to
deliver seamless, workflow-driven talent
acquision strategies that can help the customer
secure the right talent, quickly and effecvely.

With Kaushik converng the idea into reality and
spearheading the company, Mahua leading the
Operaons and Execuon while Avinash Nichani
designing soluons and ensuring sales growth, the
story of AVID's successful roadmap is encapsulated
in the individual journeys of each of its clients,
people and partners. As their customer base grew,
they worked with their people, and as they
created new opportunies with their partners,
AVID's story took a very uniquely inspiring script.

In a rapidly evolving Asia, like reckoned earlier,
there have been many strong currents of both
opportunies and obstacles that needed a very
cauous and conscious navigaon. “There was
always a journey that had to be undertaken, to
achieve the desired success,” Kaushik recalls.

While the Core Team worked on strategies to
make AVID a quality conscious and profit making

enterprise, Avinash Nichani connued to focus on

expanding internaonal sales, and Manoj Kumar

and Umesh Pashan have put in their skills to grow

naonal sales. They all have had their roles and

tasks cut out, and went about them assiduously.

“This, obviously was not possible without having

systems and processes in place which further

enhanced the overall experience of a smooth

project execuon,” recounts the AVID chief.

Thoroughly exposed to the tenets of trade, the

AVID project team always ensured that it was

proacve with its assignments, and with the

foursome of Keshava Rao, Suresh Kumar, Naveen

Kumar and Venkataramu GB leading the execuon

and deliverables of their projects.

Being in technology business, AVID claims it is

commied to ensure that their domain knowledge

on integraon is always in-depth and current. That

movates the teams involved in each assignment

to see beyond the obvious and implement the

best soluons for clients. Understanding the

importance of skills upgradaon, and widening

the talent pool, AVID top management proacvely

invests in training and cerficaons for their

employees. Training is mandatory and an integral

part of AVID's roune.

“The company believes in peer to peer training,

thereby ensuring the team got the right

knowledge to support clients,” asserts Kaushik.

According to him, AVID's team collecvely have

430+ Cerficaons and counng.

AVID's programming teams are always advised to

lay opmum focus on customizing the designs

they create, parcularly while designing control

systems- due to the high degree of crical factors

and requirements as such. More, their focus has

always been on funconality with aesthecs. The

programmers spend a lot of me to ensure every

design created is not only unique but also

relevant; we thus push their creavity beyond

boundaries,” vouches Kaushik who stays central as

a guiding factor in most endeavours. “This only

proved me and again on the commitment level

each individual has in the growth of the

organisaon.”

An independent Audit team keeps a constant eye

on the quality of installs while a dedicated Health

and Safety team ensured minimal risks at site.

“The strength of AVID has always been in people

orientaon,” asserts Mahua, Kaushik's partner in

life and business. “That the company is genuinely

put in people-oriented approach, it helped a great,

loyal employee base, that in turn helped the

company keep the customer happy.”

“We have created an Equal

Opportunity Workplace in

the organizaon for all to

operate on a level-playing

field.”

• Mahua Mukhopadhyay

“The strength of the

company lies in the

commitment level of each

individual to provide the best

of services to our customers.”

• Avinash Nichan
  Sr. Vice President (Sales)

“AVID Team always believes

that quality stays at the heart

of every individual, and in

everything they do. It

symbolizes the innovave

technology soluons that are

connecng organizaons,

their people and partners- no

maer where they are in the

world.”

  Sr. Regional Project Manager
