NTPC Profile
 Genesis & Vision of NTPC

NTPC was set up in 1975 in the central sector to

bridge the widening gap of demand and supply

of power in India.

NTPC Vision

“To be one of the world’s largest and best

power utilities, powering India’s growth”

The weak links are a result of the technology import culture from the Colonial legacy- especially as
Electricity was considered an input and not an end unlike “Space” and “Nuclear” sectors
The reason is late Indian entry to technology development arena. Affluent nations have had the
advantage of SEQUENTIAL DEVELOPMENT facilitating knowledge systems development…

Indian Entry

Missed Opportunity Systemic Distortions

Indian • Few Technical Institutes established •Focus on Equipment Multiplication
Industry • No involvement in Engg. Sciences • Electricity perceived as an input
Scenario • Import escapism culture established • Availability of easy imports
• No studies on domestic conditions • Low focus on T.D. development
• Poor industry quality consciousness • Imported designs were implanted

Technology implants in the Electricity sector have had serious fall out on development of
knowledge systems which are required for Technology Development
The effect entered even organisations set ups which do not differentiate between
knowledge work, service functions and skill work…

Typical Indian Organization

• Mixed up knowledge and service functions

• No education differentiation at entry

• Absence of filters on Management Levels

• Undifferentiated manpower movement

• No separate specialist cadres

Presence of distinct knowledge groups in the company structure provides a robust

framework which facilitates informed management decisions and provides internal
resources for new programme conceptualisation, roll out and midcourse corrections.
The sequential development in original technology countries resulted in
evolution of country wide systems with “Knowledge and Technology” focus...
