Nobody disputes that, during his lifetime, JRD Tata was the most respected — and probably the most admired — businessman in India . On Thursday, as I watched the TV coverage of Ratan Tata unveiling the Tata Nano in New Delhi , I was struck by a sudden thought: Ratan has finally inherited JRD’s title. He is clearly the most respected and admired businessman in India today.
And then, I thought back to that phase, 10 years ago, when the Tatas struggled to reinvent themselves in the post-JRD era. I thought of how Ratan was perceived then: awkward, untalented, unworthy of the job, out of his depth and full of vindictive anger against many of the satraps of the JRD regime. It was a time of change. New groups were springing up out of nowhere. The certainties of the old protectionist economy and the license-permit- quota raj had collapsed. Reliance had made the transition from being seen as a parvenu to being regarded as an industrial behemoth. The Infosys legend, personified by Narayan Murthy’s personal simplicity and marked by the world-class skills of his high-tech partners, had just begun.
At Tata headquarters, however, the crises mounted: record losses at Tata Motors, the much-derided plan to launch the Indica, criminal charges over Tata Tea’s alleged links with Assam militants, allegations of foolishness in the sale of Tata Oil Mills’ assets, a plan to launch a domestic airline with Singapore Airlines that was comprehensively scuttled and more. And many of us wondered if we were watching India ‘s greatest industrial group diminish before our very eyes.

JRD Tata

J. R. D. Tata From Wikipedia (Sep 10, 2007) Born : July 29, 1904(1904-07-29) Place : Paris, France Died : November 29, 1993 (aged 89) Place : Geneva, Switzerland Occupation : Industrialist Spouse : Thelma Vicaji Jehangir Ratanji Dadabhoy Tata (July 29, 1904–November 29, 1993) was a pioneer aviator and important businessman of India. He was one of the few people who were awarded Bharat Ratna during their life time. He was a member of the Parsi-Zoroastrian community of India. Early life - Born in Paris on July 29, 1904, Jehangir Ratanji Dadabhoy Tata was the second child of Ratanji Dadabhoy Tata and his French wife Suzanne Briere . Established in 1859, the Tata Group was already India’s biggest business conglomerate when Tata became its fourth chairman in 1938. He was then just 34 years old. Under his leadership, the Tata assets climbed from Rs 62 crore (Rs 620 million) in 1939 to over Rs 10,000 crore (Rs 100 billion) in 1990. In 1939 the group included fourteen companies with sales of Rs 280 crore (Rs 2.80 billion); in 1993, the year of his death, sales were Rs 15,000 crore (Rs 150 billion) contributed by over fifty large manufacturing companies, besides innumerable holding, investment, subsidiaries and associate concerns, making it India’s biggest business group. Diversification of Tata Group - During the last half of the twentieth century Tata entered several new businesses, many of them unconventional, and produced a vast range of products — from airlines to hotels, trucks to locomotives, soda ash and other heavy chemicals to pharmaceuticals and financial services, tea and air conditioning to lipsticks and cologne. The group seemed to make everything and do everything. One of Tata’s earliest achievements was to cajole ten rival cement companies to merge and form the Associated Cement Companies, run by the Tatas. JRD strengthened existing businesses such as steel, power and hotels. At the same time, the group lost interest in some of its older core businesses. As an industrialist, JRD Tata is credited with placing the Tata Group on the international map. As an aviator and pioneer flier, he brought commercial aviation to India. As a patron of the arts, he was revered by India’s artists, sculptors and performing artists; under JRD’s tutelage, the Tatas became the biggest buyers, promoters and supporters of the art world in India. And as a philanthropist, he was respected for keeping alive and building up the tremendously active Tata charitable trusts. Against all Odds - His achievements have to be seen through the lens of India’s economic and political history. Under British colonial rule until 1947, India was strait-jacketed by a foreign exchange crunch for almost forty years after independence, which gravely limited industrial entrepreneurship. From 1964 to 1991 severe government controls on big business further curbed the growth of the Tata Group. Analysing his own performance, JRD Tata insisted that his only real contribution to the group of companies was Air-India. For the rest, he generously gave credit to his executives. Any chronicle of the Tata Group’s growth therefore has to take the contribution of these larger than life men into account. JRD’s story is, in many ways, as much theirs as his own. Yet, it would be a mistake to under-assess JRD’s role. As one of the senior Tata executives, Darbari Seth, once said, ‘Mr Tata was able to harness a team of individualistic executives, capitalizing upon their strengths, downplaying their differences and deficiencies; all by the sheer weight of his leadership.’ A Leader and Motivator - Leadership, according to JRD meant motivating others. ‘As chairman, my main responsibility is to inspire respect.’ Sometimes referred to as the ‘chairmen’s chairman,’ JRD adopted a management by consensus style: ‘When a number of persons are involved I am definitely a consensus man,’ he once said, adding: ‘but that does not mean that I do not disagree or that I do not express my views. Basically it is a question of having to deal with individual men heading different enterprises. You have to adapt yourself to their ways and deal accordingly and draw out the best in each man. If I have any merit it is getting on with individuals according to their ways and characteristics. In fifty years I have dealt with a hundred top directors and I have got on with all of them. At times it involves suppressing yourself. It is painful but necessary. To be a leader you have got to lead human beings with affection.’ Be that as it may, Tata spotted talent easily. And once he was confident that a manager would perform, he gave him a long rope. If they wanted to be on their own, like Sumant Moolgaokar, he left them to it. If they occasionally wanted a shoulder to cry on, like Darbari Seth, JRD was there. The supportive climate he built developed entrepreneurs such as Sir Homi Mody, Sir Ardeshir Dalal, Sir Jehangir Ghandy, Russi Mody, Sumant Moolgaokar and Darbari Seth, and others who created billions in wealth for the group and the country. It was an environment where scientists of international repute such as Homi Bhabha, leading lawyers such as J D Choksi and Nani Palkhivala, and economists such as John Matthai, A D Shroff, D R Pendse and Freddie Mehta could flourish. This attitude contrasted sharply with the prevailing management styles of other Indian business leaders. Large Indian companies tend to fall into three categories: public sector ones run by the government, multinational affiliates, and those promoted by family dynasties. While the Tata Group firmly remained a family concern — to date, four out of its five chairman have been Tatas — JRD’s professionalism stood out from the crowd. Moreover, in most of the family firms, the top management tended to belong to the same community as the promoter family. With the Tatas, it was different: only merit counted. Tata’s role model in management was the British civil service. How was it, he wondered ‘that a young Briton straight from college, could come to a foreign country and administer various departments with such distinction?’ The Tata Group faced a constant shortage of managers, and JRD carried out many experiments to expand and improve the pool of talent. His first attempt — the formation of the Superior Staff Recruiting Committee — failed when none of the recruits stayed with the corporation. Eventually he formed the Tata Administrative Service and the Tata Management Training Centre at Pune. This commitment to professionalism served the group well. In 1971, for example, when the coal industry was nationalised, Mohan Kumaramangalam, the then industry minister, left Tata Steel’s coal mines untouched on the ground that these efficiently run mines would provide a model for the nationalised mines. Professionalism - JRD’s respect for his managers bound the group. ‘I am a firm believer that the disintegration of the Tata Group is impossible,’ he once declared. Most business groups have disintegrated or drifted apart because of family ownership and management, with rival family members wanting to go their own way. In contrast, the Tata Group companies are run by professionals who firmly believe in the trusteeship concept laid down by J N Tata as also by Mahatma Gandhi. A university dropout, JRD was something of a self-taught technocrat, and died long before the phrase ‘war for talent’ was coined. Yet, almost every senior Tata director from the 1930s onwards held a degree from a foreign university. Tata willingly financed bright young boys who wanted to go abroad for further education. He was also a vital bridge between the scientific establishment and the government through his founding of the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research, and as the longest serving member of the Atomic Energy Commission. Tata’s personal interest in technology, combined with India’s isolation in the 1950s and 1960s, spurred several group companies, particularly Tata Steel and Tata Chemicals, to innovate in their fields. At Tata Steel, a Research and Control Laboratory had been opened in 1937, and its researchers developed an extensive variety of special steels for applications as varied as parachute harnesses and razor blades. The lab also developed a high-tensile alloy steel — Tiscrom — which made it possible for the Howrah Bridge in Calcutta to be built entirely from Indian materials. Another corrosion resistant, low-alloy high-yield strength steel — Tiscor — was used for the manufacture of all-metal steel coaches on the Indian railways. Quality First - According to JRD, quality had to match innovation. He intensely disliked the laid-back Indian attitude, and much of his fabled short temper was triggered by the carelessness of others. He stressed: ‘If you want excellence, you must aim at perfection. I know that aiming at perfection has its drawbacks. It makes you go into detail that you can avoid. It takes a lot of energy out of you but that’s the only way you finally actually achieve excellence. So in that sense, being finicky is essential. A company, which uses the name Tata, shares a tradition. The symbol ‘T’ has to be a symbol of quality.’ The achievements of the Tata Group would not have been possible without the support of its workforce. Before JRD took over, the labour situation at key Tata plants was frequently tense despite the fact that management had poured millions into subsidised housing for workers, offered free medical and hospital treatment, as well as free education and was miles ahead of government legislation in terms of labour practices. For example, Tata Steel pioneered the eight-hour day in 1912, long before the principle had been accepted in the United States or Europe (Britain introduced the twelve-hour day in 1911). Tata Steel introduced leave with pay in 1920, and in India this was established by law in 1945. Tata Steel set up a provident fund in 1920, which was not legalised until 1952. Tata asked the question: if the workers were being treated exceptionally well, why were they frequently discontented and mistrustful and hostile towards the company? Benign Boss - According to Tata, the crux of any successful labour policy lay in making workers feel wanted. One of the inherent drawbacks of modern industry with its large and concentrated labour forces was that each man felt ‘that instead of being a valued member of a friendly and human organisation, he was a mere cog in a soulless machine.’ ‘Because of this, a worker’s attitude towards management becomes one of indifference, mistrust and coldness often tinged with hostility. He is easily led to feeling himself the victim of callous and unfair treatment and little is needed to make him look upon his employers as his enemies and break out into open conflict.’ Tata Steel became one of the earliest companies in India to have a dedicated human resources department. Expressing surprise that the company had functioned for so long without one, Tata commented: ‘If our operations required the employment of, say, 30,000 machine tools, we would undoubtedly have a special staff or department to look after them, to keep them in repair, replace them when necessary, maintain their efficiency, protect them from damage, etc.’ ‘But when employing 30,000 human beings each with a mind and soul of his own, we seem to have assumed that they would look after themselves and that there was no need for a separate organisation to deal with the human problems involved.’ Jehangir Ratanji Dadabhoy Tata died in Geneva on November 29, 1993. Few addressed him using his full name, with which he was born; he was simply ‘JRD’ to the world, and ‘Jeh’ to his friends. JRD was India’s most well known industrialist, widely respected for his enormous contribution to the development of Indian industry and aviation in particular. Tata headed India’s largest industrial conglomerate with uncommon success. But this was only one aspect of his life. He was also a man of great sensitivity and was pained by the poverty he saw around him and sought vigorously to alleviate it. He also was a philanthropist who wanted India to be a happy country and did all he could to make it so; a patron of the sciences and the arts; and a man with a passion for literature, fast cars, skiing, and flying.

The house that JRD had built was crumbling. Poor, shy, inept Ratan seemed unable to cope.

And yet, a mere decade later, here was the same Ratan being feted by the world’s media as the man who reinvented, if not the wheel, then certainly the motorcar. A man who did what no global carmaker believed was possible: to build a car that looked this good and drove so well for so low a price. And here was a new Ratan, his legendary shyness temporarily in remission, as he joked about calling the car the ‘Pachauri’ (after the environmentalist who chose to attack the Nano as a pollution threat, a charge that the Nano has easily beaten) or even the ‘Mamata’ (after the nutcase) or ‘Despite Mamata’.

The following day, the Nano managed the impossible: there was not one negative review of note and the raves kept coming. To the chagrin of his rivals, Ratan even kept to the price commitment. Though input costs had gone up, he said, the Tata’s would still price the basic Nano at a lakh because “a promise is a promise”.
The triumph of the Nano was merely the crowning glory in a series of successes. Throughout the 21st century, the Tatas have beaten every doom-laden prediction and silenced every critic. Tata Motors came back from losses of over Rs 600 crore to make huge profits on the back of the Indica, the all-Indian car that had been Ratan’s dream, and — to his detractors — the vanity project that would sink the company. Infosys had fulfilled its early promise but even then Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), a company that had been little noticed in the 1990s, had grown to dominate the Indian IT sector, its size dwarfing Infosys. Tata Steel had defied Rusi Mody’s predictions, had been whittled down to a slim and lean company, and had even gone ahead and bought Corus, a global giant, after a bidding war during which Ratan had shown nerves of steel. And even as Ratan was unveiling the world’s cheapest car, the Tatas were on the verge of clinching the purchase of Jaguar, one of the world’s great luxury cars.
How had so many people, who should have known better, got Ratan so wrong? Business pundits will tell you — in the kind of detail that I will never be able to master — just how the Tatas turned themselves around. I’m sure they are right. But remember, most of these pundits were the same guys who wrote Ratan off to begin with, a decade or so ago.
I have a few theories of my own — based on the interviews I have done with this otherwise reclusive man — on the remarkable rise of Ratan Tata.
Ratan realised India was changing much before the other big houses did. He recognised that the old feudal, paternalistic structure that had worked so well in the JRD era, where the old man was the emperor and the companies were run by viceroys, would not work in the new India . He professionalised the Tatas, democratised the management, abandoned the feudalism (remember Rusi Mody’s massive birthday tamashas in Jamshedpur ?) and made the group adopt a low-key, matter-of-fact, get-things-done style that had no room for satraps and stars.
He saw the wisdom of embracing the future. Hence, the focus on TCS. And hence the determination to go global: we talk about Corus, the Pierre, Tetley etc, but the big successes are only the tip of the iceberg. Years ago, Ratan told me that he was determined to use Indian managerial ability and Tata capital to globalise the group. In 2000, this seemed overly ambitious and grandiose. But he has grabbed the opportunities for globalisation like no other Indian industrialist has.
At the same time, he put his faith in young India . The team behind the Nano is young — the top guy is 35 — and overwhelmingly Indian. So it was with the Indica, a truly Indian car. One of the dichotomies of Ratan’s personality is that while he can be shy and reticent in social situations, he is warm, outgoing and able to motivate teams at work.
He told the government to go to hell. No group has faced more unfair governmental harassment than the Tatas — right from the Tata Tea case where they were framed by the Assam government to the telecom tangle where they were bullied by an arrogant Dayanidhi Maran. Not once did Ratan agree to pay a bribe. He wouldn’t even go and complain to Manmohan Singh (who has immense respect for him). Instead, he stood his ground. If in the process, he lost a project, he lived with the loss but maintained his principles. So it has been with Mamata Banerjee’s foolish Singur campaign: he will never buckle under it or try and buy her off.
He let his heart guide him. Early in his career, when Nani Palkhivala persuaded the Tatas to liquidate the Central India Mill even though it could have been turned around with an infusion of just Rs 50 lakh, an angry and disgusted Ratan gave his own annual Tata salary bonus to the officers of the company. “They were perfectly blameless people who had now lost their jobs through no fault of theirs because of a bad corporate decision. They had homes to run and children to educate,” he remembered in an interview to me in 2005.
It was his heart that told him to build the Nano. He would see families of four on a single scooter. The father would keep his son in front and the mother would hold on to her baby. He wondered why it was not possible to give such families a car where they could be safe and comfortable for the same price. Plus, they would keep their dignity. There are many reasons for building a car. But this, I think, is the best one of all.
And finally, I think, India caught up with the Tatas. Over the last decade the middle class came of age, tired of the crony capitalism of the old bania class, was inspired by engineering success stories like Infosys and began to wonder why it wasn’t possible for everyone to do business honestly.
The Tatas had gone through good times and bad times. But they had always given nearly all of their profits to charity. They had consistently refused to break the law and encourage corruption. Older generations of businessmen thought they were silly and shortsighted to do so considering that everybody else played the game.
But now India has changed. We finally have a strong and vocal middle class that prizes honesty above all else and that has contempt for the sleazy politicians and the crony capitalists of old.
When we see Ratan Tata refusing to pay bribes, refusing to lick politicians’ boots and refusing to bend the rules — and still taking the Tatas from strength to strength, still buying the world’s best companies, and still reinventing the rules of the car industry — well then, we know that there is a better way.
It’s possible to be honest and principled. And still beat the rest of the world.
That’s the strength of the new India .
Rebuilding success stories

“With constraint capital, investment and resources, we have the ambition to grow products into market segments, market regions and build the basis of our future competitiveness in the auto industry,” says Dr Sumantran, executive director (passenger car business unit) of Tata Engineering

The acceleration of product development has been recognised as a key initiative across industry segments. The phenomenon has been well documented through a range of sectors, particularly those engaged in consumer products. For the auto industry, the challenge comes at a time when many regulations have been tightened. This has only served to increase the magnitude of the task confronting the industry as it seeks transform itself. There is no doubt that, as an industry, the auto sector has risen to this challenge. However, the degree of success that any organisation achieves in this transformation seems to define its viability for the future.
Market perspective
One may start with the hypothesis that the communication of information and ideas is now faster than ever before. As a result, personal opinion, tastes and values seem more vulnerable to rapid change than at any other time in history. The toy industry faces this situation every year. The most popular toys this Christmas are very likely passé by the next season. Products are less capable of holding the attention of the consumer for any length of time and the novelty factor seems to play a larger role in product choice and selection.

Reacting to this trend, auto makers are increasingly seeking to find that elusive combination of attributes that will create the next success story. Arguably, the times have never been better for a consumer. The prospective buyer today can choose from an array of products whose diversity has seldom been matched in the century that automobiles have been in existence. Where one saw distinct vehicle configurations 30 years ago (sedans, station wagons, vans and pickups), today the product landscape is smeared with all sorts of combinations (hybrids combining the virtues of several categories, for example, crossovers, derived from sports utility vehicles, station wagons and vans).

At the same time, the search for novelty offers a limited window of opportunity and, therefore, product lifecycles are reducing rapidly. To auto makers the new environment demands faster replacement of products, the need to have a wider range of product offerings, and increased technology and features / content that address not only consumer expectations but also regulations in various parts of the world. These multiple goals impose a huge burden in the form of increased development cost and investment. At the same time, with market prices being under severe pressure, these costs may not be passed on to the market. Therefore, auto makers have been compelled to significantly reduce their cost of product development and, at the same time, find very efficient uses of investment to keep capital needs in check.

These efforts have resulted in a lot of credible progress in the past decade with reference to reducing the time taken for vehicle development. At the start of the 1990s, auto makers required 30 to 45 months to execute a full development cycle, depending on the complexity of the product. Today, it is not uncommon for the cycle to be completed in 18 to 24 months.

This speedup in product development has affected auto makers positively, offering them some badly needed benefits. Investments in a vehicle programme start generating returns sooner. For a programme shortened from 45 months to 24 months, this means that amortisation of capital starts almost 21 months sooner. Besides, the constrained capacity, human resources, development resources, etc are now better able to cope with the increased number of vehicle programmes. Third, the focus on making these processes efficient has had the benefit of increasing process focus in all organisations.

Platforms and their value
Fundamentally, what one chooses as the starting point of a programme defines, to a great degree, how much work needs to be done to execute that programme. Most auto makers have a range of products and systems. When the new programme carries over many of these systems, a significant amount of workload and cost is reduced from the new programme.

When one considers that the average vehicle uses over 10,000 parts and 300 systems, each requiring design, development, validation and manufacture, it seems obvious that the more one uses of what already exists, the sooner one can complete the new vehicle and the less it will cost. In most cases, the constraint to carry over arises from new regulations, standards and consumer expectations. However, it may be argued that any process that maximises the use of carry over, while meeting all the new demands and appeal, contributes to overall cost efficiency.

Clearly, the most effective solutions call for directly taking over some of the existent systems or sub-systems in the new vehicle. In many cases, regulations do not change often, and, when these systems are not directly ‘seen’ by the user, carry over makes a lot of sense.

In some cases, it may not be feasible to carry over the specific component itself. However, in these cases, if the design philosophy or the manufacturing philosophy is carried over intact it contributes significantly to minimising risk in the process. Many organisations have well-developed philosophies for the design and manufacture of door systems or engine-mount systems. Even when a specific carry over is not practical, the carry over of the design and manufacturing philosophy still generates a number of benefits.

Platform concepts
This scenario has led the auto industry to exploit the concept of platform engineering. The concept is best understood when referring to the example from Volkswagen. Today the Volkswagen ‘Golf’ platform [see Exhibit 1] is widely recognised as one of the most versatile platforms, giving rise to a range of over 14 distinct models used by four separate brands within the Volkswagen group, namely Audi, Seat, Skoda and VW.

What is fundamental to the concept of platform engineering is that these 14 models share many common components under this skin. These components include big investment components such as floor pan, firewall, power-trains, power-train mounts and suspension.

And, yet, sharing these critical and expensive components, one is still able to create a distinct and diverse range of products that give rise to everything from a small open roadster (Audi TTS) to high-performance coupes to sedans, station wagons, hatchbacks and multi-purpose vehicles. With well-controlled investments, this has allowed Volkswagen to reach a very large marketplace in terms of segments and brands. As a result, this platform is produced in excess of 1.7 million units annually.

Tata Engineering uses the same concept [see Exhibit 2]. The robust 207 platform serves as the basis for a number of vehicles like the Tatamobile, the Sierra, the Estate, the Sumo, the Safari and the 207 DI.

The car platform will now see greater diversity. This is already happening with the Indigo joining the Indica from the same manufacturing system. For this platform (X1), care has been taken to ensure sufficient differentiation between the Indigo and the Indica [see Exhibit 3].

The Indigo uses the exclusive sophisticated three-link independent rear suspension to provide better ride and handling characteristics, a longer wheelbase (by 50mm) over the Indica and new rear seats to improve rear cabin space and comfort.

Even the engines of the Indigo are different from those of the Indica. The Indigo’s diesel is turbo-charged and the petrol used has higher power (85 compared to 75) over the Indica. These changes make the Indigo a more competent player in the premium ‘C’ segment.

At the same time, because of the sharing of the platform and the manufacturing systems, the Indica and the Indigo are produced on the same assembly line. This step allows Tata Engineering to use its assets more efficiently and create the Indigo at lower cost than would have been possible had it been a completely independent vehicle. Doubtless, further platform extensions can be anticipated in the future.

Closure
This philosophy is extremely important for Tata Engineering. With constraint capital, investment and resources, we have the ambition to grow products into market segments, market regions and build the basis of our future competitiveness in the auto industry.

E Pluribus Unum is the motto of the US. It means that out of many (people), is created ‘one’. For our purposes, this platform concept can be reversed to read E Unum Pluribus or “out of one, many”!
