EDITOR'S MESSAGE Dear Colleagues, We celebrated Engineer’s Day on September 15th as a tribute to engineers across the world and especially the work done by our colleagues in LTTS who showcase excellence and create milestones almost as a habit. Indeed, for LTTS, the month gone by witnessed several engineering milestones. We launched an Electric Vehicle (EV) lab at our Bangalore delivery center in Manyata Tech Park campus, the first for any engineering services company that showcases the latest technologies pertaining to EV. This state-of-the-art EV Lab is dedicated to helping customers across the globe evaluate and verify the performance of electric vehicles. LTTS also won a breakthrough project from a tier-I automotive customer DRiV, to build a new- age hybrid unified business model and set up an engineering center in Bangalore. Also read about the team behind this precious deal-win and their behind-the-scenes adventures while pitching to the customer in Brussels! Our innovation is not restricted to one domain alone; even in the medical field, LTTS has continued to engineer the change, bringing healthcare closer than ever to the masses. Earlier in September, Agappe Diagnostics, one of India’s leading diagnostics reagents manufactures, launched their indigenously designed haematology analyzer which will go a long way in making blood testing affordable and accessible to millions. LTTS was the end-to-end engineering partner for the design and development of this unique product. This edition also features a very special conversation between two extraordinary gentlemen! In a tete-a-tete with our CMO Samir Bagga, Rajeev Gupta, who recently took over the reins as LTTS’ CFO shared his thoughts and insights on a variety of topics both professional and personal. And that’s not all. September 8th was celebrated as World Literacy Day and as the saying goes there is no better friend than a good book. So, we share with you some of the recommendations from, none other than, L&T’s CEO & MD and LTTS Vice Chairman S.N. Subhrahmanyan (SNS). You can find all these stories and much more in our latest TS TiMES edition. Enjoy reading and we welcome your feedback as always.
