“Coming together is a beginning,
keeping together is progress, working together is success”
- Henry Ford Sr.

Henry Ford’s words are strong insight into the functioning of our company, Datar Engineering and Consultancy Private Limited. We value a honest, straightforward and organized way of working and strive to design all our processes along these lines. We very strongly believe in the traditional family business ethos of empathy towards one’s coworkers, a non hierarchical style of working and steady paced expansion. Each person in our company follows a culture which values customer satisfaction and timely service over chasing profits. We believe in forming long term partnerships with our client companies. This is demonstrated by the fact that over 80% of our customers are repeat customers. Our customer’s satisfaction with our services is the foundation on which we wish to build our legacy. Our company has always maintained human safety as our first and foremost priority. Our equipment is designed using the “poka-yoke principle, which in other words means “mistake-proofing”. Our equipment has a fixed sequence of operation ensured by a system of mechanical and electrical interlocks such that any unskilled person may also operate the equipment safely. Our equipment eliminates the need for manual transportation of goods, thereby reducing safety hazards, long-term health effects and fatigue while increasing the overall productivity of individuals. Our client companies have experienced direct benefits in the form of reduced human safety hazards and a general increase in company operational output.
