Bharat Forge has always looked upon itself as an engineering company with best-in-class problem-solving skills. We continuously engage with our customers to identify white spaces and propose solutions to alleviate their predicaments. We believe that continuous dialog and knowledge exchange with customers are key to growth. Our ability to take on complex assignments and deliver them right the first time has helped us earn the trust and goodwill of our customers. We have always invested ahead of time and created the right mix of capacities, giving our customers ample confidence in our ability to deliver on time.
We’ve always acted in the best interests of our stakeholders in sourcing key materials for our operations. Our raw materials are sourced from client-approved RM suppliers at market-competitive rates. As part of our sourcing strategy, ESG best practices are incorporated in the procurement process to mitigate carbon footprint of the supply chain. As a part of this initiative, we have increased the sourcing of secondary raw materials. Currently, secondary raw materials account for 40% of our total raw material consumption.
Our Village Development Project aims to enhance skill development, education, and community well-being across 108 villages. Our initiatives focus on water provision, livelihood improvement, infrastructure enhancement, education, and healthcare, ensuring sustainable progress.
