Quality Management…..a hot filed in India



Posted by: Yusuf Salwati
Project management, Quality assurance

Before my current visit to India, I have read, as most of us, about the rapid growth of India. The mood here, for both government and people, is happy and optimistic. Development is taking place in every corner and people have more money to spend.
This is a great time for any consultant/firm looking for global opportunities to enter the Indian market.

I saw many opportunities within the service sectors that can be taken by even small firms:

1- Professional cleaning and sanitary services: in most places and cities that I visited in India, there is a huge problem with cleaning. Building and street cleaning is a major issue in India. The initial investment to start such a business is really small; the business blue print can be based on US cleaning services.
2- Independent technical support service: as the middle class grows in India, so does its purchasing power. The demand for computers and other electronic devices will be strong for years to come and with it will come the demand for quality customer and technical services. A vast and populous country such as India will offer limitless opportunities for all sizes of businesses, from small independent consultants to big service firms.
3- Educational consulting: again with the rapid growth of the middle class in India, the demand by parents to get their children the best education is at its peak in India. Most parents and perspective students are really not aware of education opportunities available to them.
These are few business opportunities I have noticed almost immediately while visiting India.

Good observation done and yes I too feel that starting a business in the above said fields are going to be successful, and in the other hand improve Indian standards also. I read a few articles on “Doing Business in India” in SiliconIndia .com, cool articles, check those articles once, it will give you more clue about how to go about a business in India.
