CONCEPT

For over a century, one word that has always defined KBL is “Evolution”. From the first pump developed almost a century ago to our latest DBxe pump, LLC Pump series and KirloSmart technology, KBL has consistently changed and evolved for the better. In this journey of perpetual change, KBL has now reached a defining moment where change has become TRANSFORMATION.

CMD Foreword

Dear All,

Hope you are thriving and growing!

In my conversations with you, the ever-changing and dynamic nature of this world is a constant occurrence. Just like water constantly seeks its path and changes the environment it passes by, so should be our life. Life at KBL is no different, as we get ready to transform, in all senses of the term.

Friends, this new chapter of our evolution is truly exciting –transformation is not just a change in routine, but an overall process of growth. This journey started with our very genesis, and is continuing with every new system we develop, every new process we command, every new member we add on to. We had promised our great nation a service, and we have kept our word and we will strive hard to continue to do in future. And the time has arrived now, to usher into the future that makes our country and our people even prouder. Foremost, this is transformation led by technology. As the world keeps getting closer, we keep growing bigger with the exchange of knowledge systems and precision in working. We continue to develop the latest innovations

in fluid management and to make them work where they are most needed.

But such a fundamental transformation is not done with technology alone. It goes beyond materials and machines and is truly reflected in the spirit of the team behind them. You, the valued member of Team KBL, is thus at the foundation of this transformation. New thoughts, ideas and avenues will find greater expression, and implementation, in this new phase of change. Together, let us be the minds that harness the true potential of humanity, to create products, systems and utilities that serve our customers better. With this vision and a confidence to unlock our true potential and higher self, I wish our KBL family to embrace this transformation with open arms.

January - May 2023

JOINT MD’S Foreword

Dear All,

We, at KBL, are in the pursuit of excellence and are bound to grow together. A holistic growth entails changes that come from within and show results that become the mainstay. The term that encapsules this idea is Transformation.

Transformation is evident to any thinking mind that is aware of its surroundings. At KBL, too, we are seeing generational shifts in our team, with more enthusiasm that comes with youth, yet retaining the wisdom of experience. The spirit of ownership, camaraderie, and solution-based service will evolve further.

Our processes are getting more futuristic too, as we launch new products that cater to new challenges.

We have completed several such challenges successfully, as you will see in this issue of Cascade. Technology has always been treated by us as an enabler; going ahead, it will be a tool of empowerment as well.

With numerous small changes and some landmark ones happening around us, the wave of Transformation is bound to engulf our lives as professionals at KBL. Let us all commit to making the future better, brighter together.

Leading with Transformation

With an unwavering commitment to keeping pace with the times, Kirloskar Brothers Limited (KBL) has consistently fostered a new era by leveraging its technological expertise and harnessing the strength of its people. However, the future calls for more. KBL aspires not only for change but for evolution. Not merely an evolution, but a complete transformation.

Being more than a century old, KBL has seen many tectonic shifts in the social and professional landscapes of the country and worldwide. We have been able to go forward and conquer new frontiers because we understood the nuances that these changes brought and accordingly moulded our way of

conducting business. Whether these are challenges of small farmers in India, or rescue missions abroad, KBL has proved to be a champion of the people. To keep doing such exemplary work in the future as well, we need to adopt innovation in the true sense of the word.

We have already embarked on finding the perfect solutions in fluid management through technology. The recent examples of successful installations in various locations of the country are a testimony to this. At the same time, we are also ready with the best of our export offerings. What makes both of them stand out is, in fact, the years of transformation that the field of technology has seen and that we

have integrated into our systems.

We are now moving on to improving processes that make this technology feasible and empower the people who bring it to life. In the forthcoming time, we will be geared towards introducing new ideas that make this possible.

With these core areas in mind and a larger picture in view, KBL is embarking on this exciting new journey. As co-travellers in this adventure, every member of Team KBL will surely achieve tremendously for the organization as well as for themselves.

Cover Story January - May 2023
01

“Moving closer to customers”

Innovation has been the biggest driver for KBL’s sustained leadership position in the global pump market for not a few decades, but more than a century. KBL is at the heart of agriculture, industry, and the economy. KBL’s aim is to empower people, enhance business, strengthen infrastructure, and create new opportunities for growth through Total Fluidity Management. KBL’s capabilities span from large infrastructure projects such as water supply, power generation, irrigation, oil and gas and marine and defence to small pumps for domestic and agricultural use. In business, the key to success has always been developing and maintaining the loyalty of our valued customers. And we do that by getting to know our customers' needs, creating services that satisfy those needs, and going the

extra mile to deliver beyond the customer’s expectations. Integration and service diversification into business make for a foundation of success by leading to what is needed before it’s known. Here, the saying by Steve Jobs relates very closely, namely, "Get closer than ever to your customers. So close that you tell them what they need well before they realize it themselves."

Customer-centricity matters to us

More than ever before, customers are now discussing their preferences, needs, likes, and dislikes in an open environment, accessible and easy to analyse if equipped with the right tools. Embarking on this journey, we, at KBL, understand the emotions and motivations behind customers’ behaviours, which allow us to effectively strategize

and use those insights to inform business decisions, build better products, and tackle customer inquiries more efficiently, not forgetting that customer-centricity is a trait, not a task. KBL has 17,000 channel partners in India and 80 overseas and is supported by a best-in-class network of authorised service centres and authorised refurbishment centres across the country. KBL’s dedicated and extensive service network, spare dealers, and authorised service centres across the country are well-equipped to meet any service need for all Kirloskar pumpsets. Service ranges from installation and commissioning, supervision, annual maintenance contracts (AMCs), overhauling, replacement / refurbishment, reverse engineering and in-house and on-site trainings.

January - May 2023

Maintain connection and loyalty

KBL has unique and innovative options to maintain customer connections and loyalty. We expand the reach by operating Authorized Pumpset and Original Equipment Manufacturer (APOEM) with channel partners along with state-of-the-art testing, repair and maintenance facilities. Apart from the legacy, we have always upgraded time and time again. KBL always strives for lean manufacturing principles and delivers an enhanced customer experience. This enables us to keep moving forward with technological advancements and invest in the future for the benefit of our customers.

Digitalisation is the new marketing trend

In today’s digital world, customers are socially

connected, and along with accessing information, they can also share it on demand. Our continued investment in next-generation technology, including 3D printing, IoT, AR, VR and AI is helping us provide our customers with more value-added products, faster delivery, and prompt service. Also, our remote monitoring system (KirloSmartTM) is a cloud-based intelligent solution that helps a person view the process parameters through the Internet. We strengthen our presence on social media platforms by consistently communicating, listening and engaging with customers. Integrating various touchpoints like websites, social media, email marketing, digital campaigns, and other channels has helped us understand the customer journey better and improve marketing ROI.

Knowing the customer closely

The earlier a customer’s trend is identified, the more valuable it is. However, while consistency is critical, we, at KBL, have always been distinctive in our ways of communicating with our customers. At KBL, what the customer says about our brand matters. If any customer wants to be heard, they don’t have to wait until a market researcher comes knocking, calling or emailing; we are available 24x7 on the toll-free number for every customer, and all a customer care executive needs to do is listen and engage.

If we’re all following the same trends and developing the same insights, the resulting homogeneity will lead to ineffectiveness. Although more subjective, social insight can provide more of a directional understanding, making it particularly valuable in uncovering emerging trends as we reach out to our customers closely.
