<p class="font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal" dir="auto">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&ndash;40 days. Translated findings into three institutional deliverables:</p>

<p class="font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal" dir="auto"><strong>Additional Involvement</strong></p>
<p class="font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal" dir="auto">Provided inputs and analytical support to two parallel problem statements within the internship cohort:</p>
<p class="font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal" dir="auto">Contributed to construction timeline scheduling discussions for the <strong>NMV University Greenfield Project (₹170 Cr, Chennai)</strong> &mdash; a multi-structure development comprising basement, hospital, academic, and hostel facilities.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p class="font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal" dir="auto">Supported development of a <strong>predictive material consumption model</strong>&nbsp;aimed at reducing procurement delays at active construction sites, contributing to model architecture and data consolidation logic for a schedule-linked material forecasting framework.</p>
