• <strong>Primary Responsibility — Value Stream Mapping and Process Improvement</strong>
• Led an end-to-end Value Stream Mapping (VSM) study of MAPI's pre-execution process across four live factory construction projects with a combined contract value of approximately ₹113 Cr. Mapped the complete process flow from RFQ receipt to execution start, identifying and quantifying idle time, waiting periods, and non-value-added activities across drawings, procurement, sub-contracts, and mobilisation lanes. Uncovered significant process inefficiencies across projects and developed a Future State VSM targeting a lean pre-execution lead time of 38–40 days. Translated findings into three institutional deliverables:
• <strong>SOP</strong> — Standard Operating Procedure for the pre-execution process, establishing mandatory contract clauses, escalation protocols, a Communication Matrix, and a Responsibility Chart
• <strong>KPI</strong> — KPI Framework with seven measurable performance indicators, a project tracking sheet, and a quarterly review mechanism.
• <strong>Pre-Execution Journey Checklist</strong> — Five-stage Excel checklist for institutional adoption with per-stage sign-off, dropdown validation, and time standards.
• <strong>Additional Involvement</strong>
• Provided inputs and analytical support to two parallel problem statements within the internship cohort:
• Contributed to construction timeline scheduling discussions for the <strong>NMV University Greenfield Project (₹170 Cr, Chennai)</strong> — a multi-structure development comprising basement, hospital, academic, and hostel facilities.
• Supported development of a <strong>predictive material consumption model</strong> aimed at reducing procurement delays at active construction sites, contributing to model architecture and data consolidation logic for a schedule-linked material forecasting framework.
