Training of Mahindra-Personal in Nagpur By: M&M Ltd. Farm Equipment Sector
An important part of the introduction of a successfull new product lies in product training. A new product without the correct back-up and mechanical knowledge of the product will fail at the first breakdown. To keep the customers happy they need to have faith that the machine will not be out of action and not working for large time periods. This costs the farmer a lot of money especially during the critical time of harvesting.
ESM and Mahindra realised this and made sure to offer training for all the Mahindra staff at their world renowned technical training school in Nagpur, India. The ESM staff consisting of Mr K.R. Strohn, Mr W. Oehler and Mr M.I. Langton accompanied by Koeppl-Manager Mr K. Koeppl. All these experts in the machinery were able to put all the relevant information across, with the help of Mr K.K. Nayyar, to 18 enthusiastic students who all will then be equipped to teach others in the net work of Mahindra.
Mr K.K. Nayyar from Mahindra and Mahindra stated that “This information transfer is vital and shows the committment to the product for the future from ESM, Koeppl and Mahindra and Mahindra.”
