Excelling in the extremes
Fondly known as the Orchid State of India, Arunachal Pradesh has seen considerable growth in the recent years. However, the roads to this 'Paradise for Botanists' aren't so flowery. Extreme natural conditions which include adverse paths and not-so-salubrious weather situations make infrastructure development all the more onerous here. Yet staying true to its sobriquet, the state is blooming with opportunities. And contributing tirelessly to its growth is an eminent name - T.K Engineering Consortium Pvt. Ltd. (TKECPL}. A consortium of exceptional knowledge and experience as well.
A name 25 years inthe making.
In the capital city of Itanagar is where the story of TKECPL commenced. From a humble beginning, that of an engineering service provider to a notable construction company, TKECPL has grown by leaps and bounds. With a wide list of successful assignments in infrastructure, transportation and utilities, it is on itsway to become a prominent global player. Its presence in Nepal, the Middle East and Bhutan substantiate the same. Talking about the company's journey Mrs.Jully Techi, Director, TKECPL, says 'We started the organization with the intention of becoming a reliable name in the field of construction. Incidentally, we began this endeavor from Arunachal Pradesh- a testing ground in ever y sense; where we overcame innumerous challenges thrown at us. And today we are well equipped to thrive even in the mosttestingconditions. It's what we call an ideal start to a long and successful journey."
The Volvo CEsupport.
Continuing further Mrs. Jully Techi says, "Our association with Volvo CE has been essential for our growth. Their expertise and support is immense. And the equipments from Volvo CE are a true representation of the same. Today they are an integral part of our fleet, which includes 32 EC21OB Excavators, 6 SD110 Soil Compactors, 3 G930 Motor Graders, 5 HB22 Rock Breakers, 2 DD90 and 3 DD100 Double Drum Compactors."
Emphasizing on the same she says, ''The EC210B is a fuel efficient performer. Its low noise emission is an additional advantage." She continues ''The other equipments from Volvo CEtoo are equally advantageous. Like the Volvo CE Double Drum Compactors. Their ability to handle varying conditions, widths and applications from highways to airport runways, is remarkable. Add to the performance of the equipment, the services that Suchita Earthmoving Solutions (our dealer for Volvo CE) provides, makes workingwith them allthe more productive."
Work and challenges.
TKECPl.!s work ranges from State & National Highways, Bridges & Culverts to High Capacity Transport Corridors. Talking about the current and future projects Mrs. Jully Techi says, "Every work we take up in Arunachal Pradesh comes with its own set of challenges. Currently we have undertaken a host of lane widening projects which include two-laning of Pasighat - Pangin Road, Papu - Yupia Road & Hoj - Putin Road and four-laning of Holongi - Itanagar Road. These projects require high level of precision and patience because of the unfavourable ground and weather conditions. And that is why you need strong backing like Volvo CE in terms of equipment and support to rely on. We found the same in Suchita Earthmoving Solutions."
Moving Forward.
Mrs. Jully Techi concludes by saying, 'We have many challenging projects in the pipeline like the road widening of NH229, infrastructure development in numerous airports of Arunachal Pradesh to name a few. For which our competent staff along with Volvo CE and other stakeholders are geared upto excel.Despitethe extremes."
