The company provides a one-stop solution for all technical, management, and financial matters to Infrastructure and Capital industries in general and to mining and metals sector in particular. It works on the operational planning and implementation part along with its clients, especially in the mining sector, which makes it stand out from others. It also brings together experts with multi-geography and multi-mineral experience who have implemented these solutions in a live scenario, hence its team has more practical and hands-on experience.
Maintaining a Team of Talented Individuals
ReVal Consulting understands the importance of attracting and retaining top talent. To achieve this, it offers competitive compensation and provides regular guidance and coaching to shape the employees’ personalities. Moreover, it provides opportunities for direct client engagement, as the founders prefer to play the role of coach to help their people achieve their full potential. It adopts a fairly good level of people’s policies, including feedback, appraisal, other employee benefits, etc.
The company successfully retains and continuously engages its top talent due to several factors. Firstly, these individuals recognize the value created by their efforts as they work on long-term projects and implement them alongside clients. Secondly, they appreciate the challenging and differentiated work opportunities they receive. These are just a few reasons why the company is able to maintain a high level of talent retention and engagement.
Promoting Self-Motivation Philosophy
Consulting is a people business and every individual counts in it. Right at the hiring level, ReVal Consulting prefers to hire self-motivated people who align with the company’s goals. While it is a small organization, it focuses on employee engagement and tries to create policies and provide facilities similar to leading organizations. It has adopted a flat organizational structure and fostered a culture and environment where everyone can voice their opinion. To promote a culture of client-centric approach and innovation, most of its people work out of the client’s office to know what the client needs and also to help the client implement its advice correctly.
Looking Ahead for Bright Future
The future holds great promise for ReVal Consulting. With abundant opportunities in India and the dynamic energy and innovative thinking of the younger generation, the company is optimistic about its growth trajectory. It aims to become the leading consulting firm in the Indian mining sector and eventually expand into other industries and geographies. With a focus on developed India, it sees a lot of growth and investment in coal and the metal mining sector. With the government’s clear focus on self-reliance, the mining sector will need to invest more and ReVal Consulting is a partner for them to realize their value.
Mr. Pukhraj has a positive outlook toward ReVal Consulting’s bright future. He says, “India as a country has many opportunities, and the younger generation is more energetic, brighter, full of ideas, and courageous. In such a sweet spot, I see the future of ReVal as bright, and we are already on the path to being the preferred consulting organization in the mining sector in India.
We are broadening our services in the mining sector by including geology and exploration in our portfolio. We are gearing up to explore other industries, mainly infrastructure and power sectors. We see ourselves working with our clients not only on conceptualization but also on the implementation of projects. Further plans are to explore crucial opportunities to go global and expand our horizons!”
Advice for Other Businesses and Entrepreneurs
Mr. Pukhraj has advice for those entering consulting, mining, or entrepreneurship. It’s vital to realize that success doesn’t come overnight. The journey is essential for growth, and setbacks are part of the process. Embrace challenges as opportunities to learn and adjust the course. Instead of getting discouraged by setbacks, see them as chances to gain valuable insights. Rather than fixating on short-term wins, focus on continuous improvement and long-term goals. Last but not least, entrepreneurs have everything in their job roles, so while delegating effectively, be ready to take charge at any moment to deliver results as planned.
