TD Power Systems

With a headcount of over 400, the company currently supplies 72 countries from four locations: Germany, India, US and Japan. Its main customers include GE, Siemens, Caterpillar and Andritz.
The company complies with ISO 9001:2015, ISO 14001:2015 and ISO 45001:2018 along with a variety of other, customer-specific requirements that come up on a project-to-project basis.
At the end of 2018, the company was growing at a steady pace and was on course to achieve almost $100m in revenues. As they scaled, it became increasingly challenging for their head of operations, Vasudev Murthy, to stay on top of his continuous improvement initiatives.
In particular, he was facing numerous problems with his quality, service and installation functions:
Vasudev Murthy had been in operations for his 40 year career and had a strong background in Lean manufacturing and continuous improvement. He was introduced to Unifize in mid-2019 and was immediately interested by how Unifize was applying lean principles to processes that he previously didn’t think were measurable.
Initially, he experimented with Unifize in his field service and installation team where it quickly transformed how the team formed in real-time around service objectives. He was suddenly able to get visibility into a process that had previously been opaque and hard to manage.
As he investigated further, he realized that Unifize could be used across the organization to solve his entire team’s collaboration problems, particularly for those processes that required dynamic involvement from multiple different departments.
Because Unifize was so quick and easy to deploy, within a few months it was being used for the following functions:
TDPS took a phased approach to implementing Unifize across their organization. In each stage, it took less than an hour to get the team up and running. Ultimately, the results were as follows:
Reduced wasted time by up to 4 hours / day for sales, quality and service teams
Improved productivity from better cross-functional collaboration
Eliminated daily confusion around who needed to do what, when & why
Reduced the number of different systems for certain processes from 5 to 1
Increase visibility into 16 core sales, service and installation activities
