The case is unique in two respects: (1) JRCPL has a strong social mission in addition to its business mission. In fact, the mission and vision statements suggest that the social mission is relatively more important, and (2) the business model is unique in the sense that weavers are not employees and the manufacturing activity takes place at the grassroots level. The focus of this case is to develop a formal management control system (MCS) in an effort to balance the two potentially competing missions. Of particular importance is the development of mechanisms to enhance communication between the weaver base and office personnel, increase weaver engagement, and measure performance. Students are required to think of several elements of a management control system, including budgeting, performance measurement, action controls, and personnel controls.

Introduction

“Sir, my company’s founder would like you to visit our company,” said Ms. Swati Ponnala to Professor Vince Klassen who, in early 2014, made a short presentation on management control systems (MCS) to a group of 25 women working in the social enterprise sector. These 25 women were participating in a week-long management development program (MDP) conducted by a reputed management institution in southern India. “Your presentation was so impressive that I have already talked to my founder about it,” she added. Two weeks later, Professor Klassen was sitting face to face with Mr. N. K. Chaudhary (Mr. NKC), founder of Jaipur Rugs (www.jaipurrugs.com), headquartered in the city of Jaipur in western India. Mr. NKC was dressed informally, defying the stereotypical image of the founder and chief executive officer of a company with approximately ₹1.2 billion in sales revenues (about $18 million). 1 “Welcome, professor,” said Mr. NKC, as he greeted Professor Klassen at the entrance of the main office. “Wow, this man is very humble, and he appears to possess decades of life experience. What will I be able teach him that he does not already know?”

Jaipur Rugs

Mr. NKC, who hails from a small village in western India, started a carpet weaving business in 1978 with the intention of empowering underprivileged rural women of India to build their self-esteem and to enable them to provide for themselves and their families. To this end, he developed a unique business model by training individuals in rural communities to become skilled weavers of high-quality area rugs. The company was established as Jaipur Carpets in 1999 and renamed Jaipur Rugs Company Private Limited (JRCPL) in 2006; its formal vision and mission are stated below: 2

We look upon business not merely as a source of income or profit, but as a way of life, as a medium for putting our talents to good use, while at the same time affording us an opportunity to be of service to the community. Profits will follow. Let us remember that profit is not just a set of figures—but of values.

“Service to the community” is our motto. Our company strives towards this focused direction to make the society grow hand in hand with our own growth and prosperity. We ensure that the need of our customers is matched by the skill of our weavers.

JRCPL is built on a foundation of six core values: empathy, simplicity, honesty, integrity, transparency, and commitment. Its philosophy may be stated as follows: “We believe (1) in the transformative power of beauty of the product, (2) in the importance of relationships, (3) in providing value to customers, (4) in the role of social responsibility, (5) in developing the full potential and consciousness of our people, and (6) that there’s always room for improvement.” Over the past decade, the company’s sales grew 630%, and its profits grew 850%.

At the time of writing this case, JRCPL had reached out to approximately 40,000 artisans with 7,000 looms; the artisans reside in 600 different villages spread across five states. More than 80% of the artisans are rural women belonging to the lower end of the social hierarchy, a significant portion of them lacking any formal education. The caste system is an integral part of the social fabric in India, and most of the weavers belong to what is considered the “lower caste.” Additionally, women, especially married women, are bound by customs and traditions that restrict their mobility. For example, they seldom interact with a male member of the community who is not part of the family. Additionally, they often cover their faces with veils when they are outside of their homes. These cultural norms pose human resource challenges in terms of training, career development, and communication in general.

A significant aspect of the business model is that the weavers are not employees of the organization. Instead, they are independent, skilled artisans who get paid for the work they do based on a predetermined compensation formula. This means that they are bound to JRCPL only through their loyalty, a personal sense of obligation, and mutual trust established between them and the founder.

The handmade carpet industry provides an excellent option for nonfarm employment in rural areas, provides equal opportunity to women and the underprivileged, controls migration to urban areas, and causes minimal harm to the environment.

Organization Structure

Jaipur Group consists of three main entities: (1) Jaipur Rugs Company Private Limited (JRCPL), located in Jaipur, India, (2) Jaipur Living, Incorporated (JLI), located in Atlanta, Ga., USA, and (3) Jaipur Rugs Foundation (JRF), located in Jaipur, India. Figure 1 illustrates the relationship among the three entities (JRCPL, JRF, and JLI). Several family members are actively involved in the business, as mentioned below. 3

JRCPL manages all elements along the value chain right from procurement to final sale. The corporate office of JRCPL houses the administration, finance, human resources, information systems, design, and purchasing functions. Mr. NKC’s youngest daughter heads the design function, and one of his two sons looks after business development. Manufacturing takes place in 600 villages spread across five states, and is enabled by 17 branch offices that are also spread out so that branch personnel are in close proximity to the artisans. Mr. NKC’s brother-in-law, who has been associated with the business for decades, is believed to know everything there is to know on the manufacturing side of the business. All of the raw wool is procured through Bikaner Wools, which is run by another brother-in-law of Mr. NKC. JRCPL also manages a showroom for final products in Delhi (International Home Deco Park—IHDP).

JLI was originally incorporated as Jaipur Rugs, Incorporated in 1999 and renamed in 2016. JLI is the marketing arm of the Jaipur Group that manages the marketing, sales, and distribution in the United States, and is the major consumer of JRCPL’s products. Mr. NKC’s two older daughters manage the U.S. operations.

Jaipur Rugs Foundation (JRF) was registered as a not-for-profit organization in 2004, and works hard to empower the artisans by elevating them from the grassroots level to become entrepreneurs. This is JRF’s enterprise development activity. 4 JRF invests in its artisans and their families by providing direct skill development to the artisans as well as education on best practices in carpeting, offering alternative education programs (AEPs) that focus on providing functional literacy, and focusing on health, sanitation, and other areas of what Vijay and Prabhu (2013) call social development. JRF has also considered establishing community mobilization initiatives in order to minimize social evils often faced by the marginalized section of the population. In this regard, Tyagi states: 5

By undertaking proactive activities for their [sic] global supply chain, JRF wishes to ensure that the people (social cohesion) not only get assured income (social capital) staying in their own villages but are also assured of good quality of life through enhanced skills of existing and potential artisans to enable them to meet the market demand; and eradicate exploitation, institutionalize fair trade practices in carpet industry and develop conducive environment for people to get attracted towards carpet making as an occupation.

In the last six years, JRF has won numerous awards for its contribution to society.

Although Mr. NKC’s wife is not active in the business, she plays the important role of mentor to the weavers who visit the head office as part of the weaver engagement program (discussed below). Both Mr. NKC and his brother-in-law have learned through on-the-job experience.

Manufacturing and Distribution

JRCPL’s main products are rugs that vary in weave style (e.g., tufted or knotted) and material (e.g., wool, silk, and cotton). While a tufted carpet lasts for about five years, a hand-knotted one can last for up to 100 years. The price differential between the two types of carpets is also significant—about $2 per square foot for a tufted carpet vs. $25 per square foot for the hand-knotted carpet. Recently, JRCPL has also started producing pillows and poufs.

JRCPL takes the necessary materials to the weavers’ doorsteps so that the artisans are not required to travel outside of their dwellings to begin the day’s work. The production process may involve a single weaver or a “village factory” comprising up to 12 weavers working together. The company pays close attention to quality, process efficiency, and costs. Since the job is performed manually, the artisan’s understanding of the entire weaving process is critical, and it is also important that they continue to develop their weaving skills. Therefore, the development of weaver skills assumes strategic importance.

The lead time for hand-knotted carpets is between six and eight months, including approximately two months of actual weaving time. The remaining time is consumed by other processes in the supply chain as well as waiting time. Figure 2 illustrates the steps (elaborated below) involved in the supply chain from order receipt to final delivery for a handmade wool carpet. 6

  • 1. Customer Order : Each order that is received from the customer, typically via JRI if it is an export order or from IHDP if it is a domestic order, is entered into the system.
  • 2. Carpet Map : The customer’s needs are translated into design specifications; the “map” is a visual of what the finished carpet will look like.
  • 3. Job Card: In this step, a bill of materials is prepared for the order received; this bill of materials includes all the main raw materials that will be required to weave the carpet.
  • 4. Production Planning : This step involves identifying the branch to which the order should be sent and is carried out in consultation with the branch managers. Once the branch has been identified, the branch personnel decide which weaver (or group of weavers) will weave the carpet. This decision is based on the skill levels within the weaver group as well as their previous experience working with similar designs. All the raw materials and the looms are supplied to this location.
  • 5. Production : This step starts with weaving, followed by repairing, finishing, and washing. Parallel to this step is the preparation of the raw material, including procurement, carding, spinning, dyeing, and spooling, all of which transform the raw wool into yarn (to make the carpet). The raw material preparation is not specific to an individual order—wool is usually purchased in large batches.
  • 6. Packaging : The customer’s order is packaged and ready for shipping.
  • 7. Transportation : The order is shipped to the customer. Usually, international orders are transported using a shipping company; only urgent orders are transported by air.

The raw material preparation process for wool begins with a step known as carding, which consists of separating the individual fibers. This process removes any impurities present in the wool. The next step is spinning the wool into yarn. Both carding and spinning are key to the quality and ease of weaving. The yarn is then transported to the inventory warehouse. Coloring of the wool is outsourced to a local dyeing center. (All outsourced steps in the process are represented in ovals in the illustration.) The dyed wool is then spooled to create small rolls of wool that can be easily transported to the weaver’s location; these rolls of wool are used by the weavers to make the carpet.

Because most of the weavers are illiterate, the carpet map is an important support document. It allows the weavers to see a replica of the carpet on paper. The woven carpet is far from being ready to be shipped to the customer as is. After being transported to the branch office, every woven carpet is sent to the closest independent repair center. Personnel at the repair center measure the size of each carpet and visually inspect the carpet to check how well it matches the design (pattern) and color as identified in the carpet map. Following the inspection, repair center personnel rework the carpets as necessary. The carpets are then transported (outsourced) to a finishing center for the purposes of finishing and washing. The finishing process includes trimming the carpet to ensure that excess bits of wool, thread, and other materials are removed and accentuating highlights of the design. Cleaning is done using chemicals that prevent stains and soiling. The finished products are then packaged and shipped to customers.

Two factors of importance to customers are quality and timeliness, and these are areas where JRCPL is facing some challenges (see Tables 1 and 2 for details covering all branches exclusively dealing with hand-knotted carpets). These numbers are disturbing for management because of their potential impact on revenues, costs, and profitability.

The branch manager is a key liaison between the corporate office and the weavers. He or she coordinates with village leaders, including quality supervisors and Bunkar Sakhis (weaver companions). These individuals are long-time weavers with significant experience and a good understanding of the weaving process and the carpet specifications.

The founder believes that the weavers and customers are the two most important stakeholder groups and must be treated equally. All other personnel of the JR group (including its three entities) exist to serve the two stakeholder groups. Sales managers or sales representatives (on the customer side) and branch managers or quality supervisors (on the weaver side) serve the two groups in a more direct manner.

Management Control Systems

Professor Klassen was unsure of what systems and processes existed at JRCPL. “This will certainly be an interesting learning experience,” he thought to himself.

Professor Klassen’s first question to the founder was “Is this a business or a social organization?” He knew that the answer would be, “It is both,” and he was ready with his follow-up question: “Which comes first?” Professor Klassen recognized that for Mr. NKC, both the business and social aspects were important, but also sensed that the social mission was relatively more important than the business mission. He was unsure, however, if Mr. NKC’s family members and the other members shared his concerns about the social mission.

During this visit, Professor Klassen met with a number of young individuals, many of them with graduate business degrees or other professional qualifications (e.g., Chartered Accountant). For some, this was their first job. Mr. NKC had hired them to modernize the business by establishing formal systems and procedures in several areas, including operations, human resources, management information systems, accounting, and finance. It is also important to note that many of these professionally qualified young employees were from urban backgrounds with little or no exposure to rural lifestyles.

The annual budgeting process lasts for three months and consists of three steps. First, the sales department, located at JRCPL’s corporate office, forecasts on a monthly basis revenue for the next year. These forecasts are developed based on historical performance and information received from JRI, from attending trade fairs held in various parts of India to phone and e-mail correspondence with existing and potential buyers and other outreach programs.

Second, based on the sales budget, production and raw materials budgets are prepared by the respective departments. Similarly, support departments, like design and development, information technology, accounts and finance, administration, enterprise resource planning (ERP), and human resources, prepare their budgets, which include planning for new initiatives, projects currently in progress, new systems, and new workers. Individual departments develop their budgets under the leadership of the respective heads.

Third, actual performance is compared on a monthly basis with the budget. This analysis often resulted in action plans developed to address significant variances, including identifying one or more point persons to implement the action plans. Additionally, the monthly review helped in revising the monthly budgets if necessary.

Performance Measurement

JRCPL is in the process of developing a basic balanced scorecard (BSC) performance measurement system that includes key performance metrics for the functional areas of sales, production, supply chain, administration, ERP, and accounting. The metrics will be tracked and reported on a monthly basis and used by department heads and directors to review performance. At the time of writing this case, JRCPL had not decided whether three separate BSCs (one for each entity) or a single overall BSC would be developed. Senior management, however, discussed a preliminary template, which included the following points:

  • 1. The scorecard will include a maximum of eight key performance indicators (KPIs) spread across the four generic BSC dimensions of financial, customer, internal process, and learning and growth.
  • 2. The weight assigned to each scorecard dimension may be unequal, but the minimum weight will be 10%. Each KPI will be assigned a minimum weight of 10%.
  • 3. Performance assessment will be done by both the individual being assessed (self-assessment) and the reporting manager.
  • 4. A percentage system will be used to rate each individual’s performance rating and this will be used to compute an overall score between 1 (low: less than 85% achievement) and 5 (outstanding: at least 120% achievement).

Senior management has expressed an interest in linking nonnegotiables with the key performance metrics when evaluating the performance of individuals. A nonnegotiable is a core value that simply cannot be compromised.

At the present time, there is no performance-based compensation system for branch and head office personnel except for new recruits after they complete six months (this is a just a one-time incentive). Similarly there are no incentives in place for branch personnel and staff of the foundation (i.e., JRF). Yet challenges with respect to quality and lead time have led to the development of a new weaver engagement program to make weavers aware of their capabilities and inspire them to weave carpets with creativity and an “owner mindset.” The objectives of this program are:

  • 1. To listen to the voices and struggles of our weavers and ensure that they are solved in time,
  • 2. To create awareness of the founder’s life, members of Jaipur Rugs Family, and the values of founder and Jaipur Rugs,
  • 3. To create awareness about the importance of mindfulness (health) and learning attitude (skills) to face all of life’s problems and how Jaipur Rugs is providing sustainable livelihoods to people in the lower caste of Indian society who would otherwise be unemployed, and
  • 4. To communicate the key thoughts and behaviors from the life journey of our founder from 1978-2013.

The company also implemented a new weaver incentive plan to motivate weavers to take responsibility for quality and timeliness.

Going Forward

Professor Klassen knew that JRCPL was keen on achieving significant growth going forward. He believed that it was important for JRCPL to sort out its business vs. social mission dilemma, particularly since the founder was considering taking a step back to let members of the younger generation assume the responsibility of running the organization. Would they buy into his mission? More importantly, how seriously would they be about supporting JRCPL’s mission?

Although this was going to be an important decision for JRCPL, Professor Klassen wondered, for the purposes of developing a MCS, if it really mattered which mission was relatively more important. Would the budgeting process be different, depending upon which mission was considered as being relatively more important? Would the key performance metrics be different? Should they be different? How should JRCPL balance the performance metrics to ensure that the right emphasis is placed upon each of the two dimensions of the mission? Finally, he wondered about the complexity associated with implementing the new weaver engagement program.

Professor Klassen believed that another important issue was the integration of JRCPL’s corporate office personnel with those at the branches and with the weavers. This was important for two reasons. First, weavers are independent artisans, so maintaining a high level of trust between them and the company is absolutely critical. According to Mr. NKC, achieving integration required that the “thinkers” at the head office and the “doers” at the scene of action can understand and empathize with each other. It was also important that both groups were willing to learn from each other; this required a sense of receptivity toward each other in an effort to bridge the currently existing gaps.

Professor Klassen found the idea of empathy rather interesting and wondered how this could be formalized. “Could this be part of the learning and growth dimension of the proposed BSC?” he thought to himself. Second, the company had invested significantly in weaver development (through JRF) and their engagement through recently implemented programs. Although he recognized the importance of achieving this integration, he also realized that it was not going to be easy.

Finally he knew that JRCPL was keen on developing standard operating procedures (SOP). He knew about the timeliness and quality issues and wondered if the focus on developing SOPs was motivated by these issues or whether the company believed it needed to do this to ensure a degree of standardization across the large and spread-out weaver base. Regardless, he recognized that JRCPL was keen about this. He then wondered about the extent to which weavers should be involved in this process and whether their involvement was critical to successfully implement the Bunkar Sakhi program. How should this be rolled out? Who should be involved in this process? How can weavers be made to appreciate the importance of quality and timeliness as important factors for customers? How could technical terms be translated into terms that weavers would be able to understand and relate to? What would be the possible outcomes and/or implications of such an exercise?

“This will be a very interesting ‘management control journey’ for the Jaipur Group,” thought Professor Klassen as he sipped his afternoon tea. He had many questions, but he also had to come up with some suggestions before his next visit to JRCPL.

Similarly, the business has a substantial experience in structure bigger parks in metropolitan cities.However, the business does not have any experience of operating in America, for that reason thisstrategy appears to be dangerous.

Alternative 2- New Formats (Entering into Small markets):

This strategy includes theconstruction of small parks in little cities with greater GDP development and population, such as: Doha. This would result in smaller sized profits as compared to operating in larger cities and needs less investment.Growth will be attained as compared to other parks as restricted activities will be availed thinking about the small size of the park, which will allow the consumers to check out once again to obtain other services.

Alternative 3- Interactive Digital Platform:

The proposed strategy involves the intro of an interactive digital platform for the function of strengthening the relationship with children by offering physical experience of the park in a virtual world. Thinking about thefact of high penetrationofinternet and use of phones and electronic devices, the business will be able to draw in optimal variety of client through this method.

Alternative 4- Content Development:

Considering higher development potential customers in the film market, the technique appears to be a viable option.However the preliminary investment needed for the job requires to be kept under factor to consider. The method may not be appropriate by the business considering the reality that the worldwide development and presence will not be accomplished by employing this method.

Alternative Solutions

Alternative Solutions

Financial Evaluation of Alternatives:

In order to evaluate the financial practicality of each option, capital projection for a period of 10 years has actually been carried out.

Data and Assumptions

It is approximated that the job will achieve internal rate of return of -2% and 4% and NPV of -1725 million and $-65 millionin Mexican Peso and dollars. It is predicted that the income will grow by 3 percent each year, which is based on the real income growth achieved in the year 2013-2014. Other basic assumptions which has been utilized to assess the alternatives, including the discount rate of 10%, depreciation rate of 3%, EBITDA margin of 21.8% and tax rate of 15%.

Alternative-1 Valuation

Business will accomplish IRR of -6% and -0.5% and NPV of -1074 million and -50 million in Mexican Peso and dollars. The unfavorable NPV and IRR of the job suggests that expanding service by targeting smaller sized markets is not a possible option.

Alternative-2 Valuation

The business will achieve IRR of 30% and 38% and NPV of 864 million, and 92.6 million in Mexican Peso and dollars. This suggests that from monetary perspectives, the technique seems lucrative and has the prospective to supply higher returns. The method will need an investment of $45 million, which is higher as compared to other alternatives.

Alternative-3 Valuation

Business will attain IRR of 33% and 41% and NPV of 1105 million and 115 million in Mexican Peso and dollars. The project needs preliminary financial investment of 45 million in Mexican Peso therefore, it might be hard for the business to finance the project considering the decreasing profits due to an increased competitors and currency devaluation.

Alternative-4 Valuation

Quantitative analysis summary, alternative valuation summary, recommendations.

Based on the analysis performed in the report, it will be recommended to business to utilize the 4th strategy i.e. grow business by investing into content creation in order to enhance client experience. The strategy is financially viable as it is estimated that maximum IRR and NPV will be produced through this task as compared to other alternatives. Likewise, due to an increased threat of brand-new entrants in addition to an intense competition among rivals, participating in larger cities will not be advantageous for the business.

Action Plan:

In order to implement the method of structure content production, the business would be required tohave collaboration with renowned businesses involved in content creation. These content creators will develop the material on the websites thinking about, the instructional need, altering preferences of kids and cultural aspects and aspects of local consumers. Business can also purchase established material from possible material suppliers, such as: Walt Disney, which will make sure operational performance is accomplished, functional costs of business is reduced and consumer interesting material is developed.

Today the impact of CSR is beginning to be seen in companies throughout the world from Human rights to Social development. Various terms are often substituted for CSR like corporate citizenship, corporate ethics, environmental, social, and governance (ESG), among others. Companies have been using the concept of a triple bottom line for CSR. This approach takes into account the inter-connectedness of financial, environmental, and social factors. The triple bottom line is also sometimes referred to under the caption, “people, planet, profit.” This research paper has made an attempt to explain the Social development mechanism through CSR practices followed by Maharatnas Company. For this study I have taken samples of Indian Maharatnas Company to define their social development initiatives through CSR practices. The present study further explores the role of corporates in helping social development through a number of CSR initiatives started by the corporate under the guidance of new CSR regulation implemented by the government of India in 2013. The outcome of the study will help in bringing radical changes in social development through CSR practices. This study is based on secondary data, collected from the Websites of companies, existing research papers, journals, news papers etc. Keywords- Social development, Corporate Social responsibility, CSR Practices, Triple Bottom Line, Maharatnas Company & CSR Regulation.

The real success of Indian democracy is being attributed to its social responsiveness towards all of its citizens. Nevertheless, in the endeavour of sustaining a true and vibrant democracy, the country strives very hard to extent the facilities and benefits to all strata of the society due to its constrained resources. Therefore, the Government of India needs a helping hand from corporate sector to ensure better standard of living of its people. In this regard, the corporate India is expected to play a constructive role by undertaking activities which may ultimately lead to social rejuvenation, development and empowerment of unprivileged people. If this happens, India is very proud to be one of the countries in the world to attain real inclusive growth. Hence, it is felt that Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) activities of companies are really a key to unlock both economic and social disparities, which in turn, benefits the person in the last mile. Moreover, the Companies Act, 2013 has directed corporate India to work towards a growth based socio-economic-environment development model. The present book is an attempt to provide the emerging trends and best practices in CSR implementation, models of partnership, managerial and organizational challenges and issues in monitoring and evaluation of projects related to CSR in the public and private sector. I thank all paper contributors for their continued support, encouragement, inspiration to complete this task. Without their help it will be difficult task for me to complete this volume. Dr. M.

Corporate Social Responsibility Practices and Management is generally understood as responsibility of any undertaking or business to work in an ethical and sustainable manner to ensure environmental protection and human well-being. In a current scenario the role of organisations in economy is not just the revenue generation but is also expected to integrate social, ethical and environmental aspects in their day-to-day operations. It is significant to get acquainted to the past researches done in particular field in order to recognize the opportunity and area for future research. The present study reviews the study done in a decade regarding realization, adaptation and implementation of corporate social responsibility practices in Indian organisations and its impact on their overall success in market as well as society. It is found that though organisations has started taking various initiatives towards social responsibility and there is a lot of information available on CSR spending of companies, little is known about how these companies are making their CSR practices innovative and at what extent and in what areas they are contributing towards society that forms the core of their success. This paper focuses on the Corporate Social Responsibility Practices in India: A case study of Andhra Pradesh.

C40 Good Practice Guides: Jaipur - Mahindra World City

Mahindra World City, Jaipur is a 3,000 acre integrated business city located in the fast growing Delhi-Mumbai Industrial Corridor. It is a Public-Private Partnership (PPP) between Mahindra Group and Rajasthan State Industrial Development and Investment Corporation (RIICO), and will be a home and workplace to over 300,000 people.

While in the early phases of development, the project has completed its Climate Positive Roadmap xiv that details the strategies and tactics to be pursued to achieve a Climate Positive outcome. Situated 25 km from Jaipur airport, Mahindra World City already houses more than 65 global and domestic multinational clients like Infosys, Wipro, JCB, Perto, Rexam and others, across its Special Economic Zone (SEZ) and Domestic Tariff Area (DTA) facilities.

As detailed in the Roadmap, Mahindra World City, Jaipur will have a net impact of reducing over 60,000 tCO 2 e per year, compared to a business as usual baseline of over 800,000 tCO 2 e.

Energy currently accounts for over 80% of the site’s total emissions. The project is pursuing three strategies to reduce that impact:

  • Efficient use of energy in buildings;
  • Efficient use of energy for utilities; and
  • Use of renewable energy (solar).

Embracing flexibility to accommodate changes in technology, the plans for the Mahindra World City call for a minimum of 30% savings from energy efficiency strategies and at least 50% of rooftops dedicated to solar. 
The sustainable transport strategy for Mahindra World City utilises the ‘Avoid, Shift and Improve’ approach xv for developing a sustainable transport plan. The sustainable transport strategy also incorporates a variety of non-motorised and public modes of transport, thereby reducing the overall CO 2 impact from transport on-site. 


Reasons for success

The project adopted a holistic approach to sustainable development right from the master-planning stage and prioritised infrastructure investments that are projected to help deliver carbon savings. With both partners – State Government and Mahindra World City – having a strong desire to deliver a sustainable new development, they were able to think creatively about how to expand the impact across the community and leverage additional investment opportunities, positioning them to better deliver a lower carbon outcome. 


When/why might a city adopt an approach like this

This strategic approach will work well in a greenfield development or in cities that are growing rapidly, where there are opportunities to develop infrastructure at scale.

Jaipur Foot to be Harvard Business School case study

Whatsapp

Study on Jaipur foot as a business and healthcare model prepared by the university is ready and will be introduced tentatively next month

 ()

Jaipur: Jaipur Foot, the artificial limb which helped over more than 1.3 million people walk again, will soon become a case study for students of Harvard Business School in the US. The study on Jaipur foot as a business and healthcare model prepared by the university is ready and will be introduced tentatively next month in the university.

Physically challenged, particularly financially weak and underprivileged, people are helped with the Jaipur Foot by NGO, Bhagwan Mahaveer Viklang Sahayata Samiti (BMVSS), which manufactures the artificial limb and is the world’s biggest organization for the differently-abled.

The foot, which costs around ₹ 2,500, is given free to patients by the organization that was set by Devendra Raj Mehta more than three decades ago. It also makes arrangements for accommodation of patients coming from outstations.

“In the study by the business school, areas like creation of the model and its system, its sustainability, patient-centric management, technology and financial management have been covered," Mehta, chief patron of the organization, said on Saturday.

The study is conducted by Prof. Srikant Datar, an Indian American professor at Harvard Business School under India Research programme. “Around 60,000 people visit our centre annually and 24,000-25,000 people are fitted with the Jaipur Foot. We have fitted close to 1.35 million people with the artificial limb so far. This gives mobility and dignity to disabled," Mehta, former Sebi chairman, said.

“We have a patient-centric system and give the foot free of cost to all patients. We have open door facility and a patient is first admitted then he is registered," he said. Mehta said that the insight of the system would help business students understand how such a low-cost product could be sustained. PTI

Jaipur, Evolution of an Indian City

jaipur group case study

  J aipur lies at a distance of about 200 miles from Delhi, 150 miles from Agra and 84 miles from Ajmer. Capital city of Rajasthan is located amidst the Aravali hill ranges at an altitude of about 430 m above sea level.

  • Latitude – 26 55’
  • Longitude – 75 50’

jaipur group case study

  • The layout of the city of Jaipur  wonderfully links the concept of a Shastric city with the practicalities of the chosen site.
  • First, the straight line of the ridge suggested itself as the route for one of the main east-west thorough fares and building a road along its crest makes best possible use of the topography for the purpose of drainage.
  • What followed then was to regularize the Amber-Sanganer road as a north-south route at right angles to it.
  • The point of intersection would be one of the city’s main cross-roads (chaupar)

Although the location of the axes was determined, their extents were yet to be defined. The southern boundary of the city had to lie within the line of the Agra-Ajmer road. So by extending the NS road as far as possible southwards gives the first fixed dimension, the length of a side of a square and so establishes the size of the unit or module of the city.

A hunting lodge known as Jai Niwas. It was the king’s wish that this establishment come within the city.

 A road cutting the plain from N to S linking Amber,the capital to Sanganer, the principal trading town. This road had to be preserved and controlled and therefore had to fall within the city’s boundaries

A second road ran E to W between the Mughal cities of Agra and Ajmer and placing the new city on this already established communication line would help secure its economic success. However since  this was an imperial road that could not be encroached on, thus the city had to be contained to the north of this line.

Also, a natural ridge runs across the plain, N of the road and parallel to it, in a roughly EW alignment (with a slight deviation of15 deg. from the cardinal axes). The area to its S is flat while that to its N slopes down gently. In Shastric terms, this is an ideal arrangement as declivity towards  the north-east Is considered the best site. In practical terms, the ridge too had to be accommodated.

jaipur group case study

The town has around it a masonry wall, 25ft. high & 9ft. thick, with eight gates.

The gates are:

  • Chandpole Gate,
  • Ajmeri Gate,
  • Sanganeri Gate,
  • Surajpole Gate,
  • Gangapole Gate,
  • Zorawar Singh Gate,
  • and New Gate.

jaipur group case study

  • The palace building covered two blocks, the town six and the remaining ninth block was not usable on account of steep hills. So this North-West ward was transferred to the South-East corner of the city, making the shape of the plan as a whole asymmetrical rather than square.
  • The city’s division into nine wards was also in conformity with the Hindu caste system, which necessitated the segregation of people belonging to different communities and ranks.
  • Even the lanes were named after the occupations of inhabitants such as Maniharon ka Rasta, Thatheron ka Rasta & many others.
  • Following the directions of the Hindu Shilpa shastra, width of the main streets & other lanes were fixed. Thus the main streets of the city were 111ft. wide, secondary streets 55 ft. wide & the smaller ones 27ft. wide.

jaipur group case study

On the North of the main road from West to East are the Purani Basti, the Palace and Ramchandraji.

The principal bazaar leads from the western gate in the city wall, The Chandpole, passing in front of the Tripolia Gate, to the eastern city                                                                                                   gate, the Surajpole.

  • Public spaces can be divided into

CONCEPTUAL PLAN – CHAUPAR

CHAUPAR –  It’s a square that occurs at the intersection of east west roads with three north south roads. Each chaupar is  around 100m x 100m. Were used for public gathering on festive occasions. The distance between two chaupars is about 700m which is ideal for pedestrian movement.  It has controlled façade treatment enveloping it.

jaipur group case study

View (above) of a main bazaar street – the width of the main roads was kept 39 1/4 gaz – 108 feet, secondary roads are half this size – 54 feet, the tertiary roads are 27 feet and the inner mohalla streets are 13 feet wide.

jaipur group case study

View of a chaupar today

  • The main markets, havelis and temples on the main streets in Jaipur were constructed by the state in the 18th century, thus ensuring that a uniform street facade is maintained. The widths of roads were predetermined.
  • According to a popular belief, the city was painted pink to celebrate the visit of the Prince of Wales in 1876, during the reign of Maharaja Sawai Ram Singh II, lending the city the name of ‘Pink City’.
  • Junctions of the main axial streets formed the two square civic open spaces called chaupars (Badi chaupar and Chhoti chaupar). The width of the square chaupars was three times that of the main street.
  • Historically, the chaupars were outlets for intense social use with water structures connected by underground aqueducts, supplying numerous sources of drinking water at street level. Presently, the centre of each chaupar has square enclosures with ornamental fountains.
  • The streets and chowks (central open squares in a town) of the internal chowkries (sectors) with numerous clusters or mohallas were not predetermined; hence show a mix of grid iron and organic pattern, with the basic unit of built form being the rectangular haveli.

Your article Is a fantastic Your article Is a fantastic piece of research and I thoroughly enjoyed reading it. If possible would you be able to share some of your research or any sources that you have found useful? I am currently designing a hypothetical urban intervention in Agra and I have been to Jaipur and was very impressed with its urban structure to the extent that I intend to use it as a case study. Any correspondence would be much appreciated.
