"We are proud to have been chosen to equip this highly technologically and environmentally advanced plant with Synel's solutions" says Ady Shani, Synel's int'l V.P. sales and marketing.

This project join's Synel's large installation in TATA Motors - India's largest passenger & commercial vehicle manufacturer, employing over 60,000 workers.

The terminals, which were initially installed in TATA Motors plants over a decade ago and have undergone massive upgrades in recent years, include terminals which are connected to a SAP central system. The data collection and validation system is based on SY-Server and DLLs that were written specially for TATA, which manage a total of over 600 terminals. The terminals are used for time & attendance, project reporting, meals reporting and access control to computer rooms.

Tata Motors' brand new plant for the Tata Nano at Sanand, which was inaugurated in the beginning of June, operates in the goal of making the Tata Nano freely available to hundreds of thousands of families around the world. The capacity of the plant, to begin with, will be 250,000 cars per year to be achieved in phases, and with some balancing is expandable up to 350,000 cars per year.

In line with latest world-class manufacturing practices, the Tata Nano plant has been equipped with state-of-the-art equipment. They include sophisticated robotics and high speed production lines. Conscious of the critical need of environment protection, the plant has energy-efficient motors, variable frequency drives, and systems to measure and monitor carbon levels. These are supplemented with extensive tree plantation, sustainable water sourcing through water harvesting and ground water recharging and harnessing solar energy for illumination.

The plant has already directly employed 2,400 individuals, and as the capacity is increased, the project, along with the vendor park, is expected to generate about 10,000 direct and indirect jobs. http://www.tatamotors.com/
