    departments to ensure all projects are completed on time & to ensure
    that the Equipment's & Machines designed, manufactured are Installed

    Highlight the changes in the Industry Standards since the
    day of Joining.                                                 Mr. Anand Khanna. Director.,
    I have been working in this Manufacturing Industry for the   M/s VIVEK EQUIPMENTS PVT. LTD.            MechnoVIT
    manufacture of Machines & Equipment's Biscuit Machinery &
    Allied Industry for the last 23 Years Now.
    There has been a huge leap in technological advancements that have taken place in the industry. The Biscuit
    Industry being a labour-intensive industry, key Areas have been identified, where in the role of technology has
    managed to bring down the labour intensiveness thereby increasing safety, hygiene & efficiency. With new
    regulations being introduced in the Food Industry such as HACCP & FSSAI, The Industry has moved to become a
    more hygienic, safe & efficient environment work place.
    What are the Challenges faced by you before and after Joining the Industry?
    I Joined My Organization after working in a different organization, where in I was looking after the sales,
    inspection of equipment’s that were made by our vendors, Later I had to go to the site and oversee & complete
    the erection & commissioning of Equipment's. When I joined this organization, I realized that the approach
    required in this Industry was completely different as earlier I had worked for Coal & Allied material handling  MechnoVIT
    conveyor & now, I had to work for the Food Industry, which had a very different approach mechanism. I was
    blessed enough to work with some of the best role models in the Biscuit Industry who guided me & helped me to
    evolve my approach.
    What is your advice to newcomers joining your industry?
    First & foremost is to be working hands on & having a keen sense of learning & willingness to be open to absorb
    knowledge & information with sincerity. Should never shy away from discussing his ideas with his superiors &
    colleagues. Eagerness to Learn & Passion would definitely make you Love your Job.
    Do you suggest any professional development programs to undergo before joining any industry?

    Development of person in his career is always evolving as engineering as a profession is always innovating with  MechnoVIT
    augmentation of newer technologies & processes. Hardware & Software both are continuously evolving. It would
    be advised that the individual wanting to Join this Industry should be focused on what is his core area i.e.,
    Hardware or Software is his core & He needs to keep himself updated in his core interests.

    Where do you see yourself in the next 5 years and the next 10 years?
    I would like to see my organization move up the ladder of higher pinnacle & be the top manufacturer of biscuit
    manufacturing machines & equipment's. I would like to further increase the market reach of my organization
    globally & make my country proud by making MAKE IN INDIA mantra a success for ourselves as well.
