Bombardier Transportation Delhi Metro Projekt

After several successful intercultural training sessions in Germany for future Bombardier India expatriates Kulturtaucher was being selected to energetically support Bombardier's management and HR-department in the Delhi Metro Project, on-site.

The mega-project totaling 424 MOVIA-Metro car culminated in the course of testing and commissioning activities of the first Metro trains during early summer and autumn of 2009, when a great amount of up to 120 additional experts were required in Delhi.

Within the project's framework Kulturtaucher was responsible for the international workforce's stable presence and therefore (nearly) all of their non-work related issues.

<p>While the newly built factory's greatest HRM challenge and success certainly was to recruit, employ and retain a workforce of up to 750 employees on a greenfield site, it was vital in New Delhi, during the whole year of 2009, to receive scores of international engineers, testing-, commissioning- and retrofit experts, to integrate them into Indian day-to-day life and the existing team, as well as to take care of their physical and mental integrity. According to the various, interdisciplinary fields of work, Kulturtaucher's focus kept continuously changing during the different phases of the project.</p>
<p>Especially with the project successfully reaching shallow waters in early autumn 2009, it was possible to re-evaluate some fields of functions. At the beginning of the project the focus naturally was on the establishment of infrastructure and networks, as well as orientation guidance and immediate reacting to the business traveler's daily challenges. Later in the project, a committed and practically oriented on-site expatriate management guaranteed a sustainable integration and support of international executives and their families, which were asked to extend their stay in India for one or two years.</p>

<p>Guided Kulturtaucher trips quickly became a “must”, brought a welcome and necessary change into the 6-day workweek and simultaneously contributed to the staff's integration and motivation. By setting good examples the way he acted, Kulturtaucher helped mitigate concerns and fears of contact with India which subsequently had a positive effect on the general cooperation with Indian colleagues.</p>
<p>At Kulturtaucher's side even the upper management allowed themselves to dive into India's wilder surroundings.</p>

<p>No visit to Delhi and India is complete without a visit of the Taj Mahal in Agra. But this unique experience can easily get spoiled if the general conditions are not adapted to the group's expectations, health – and safety requirements.</p>
<p>By knowing India just as every individual assignee and the different international groups as a whole Kulturtaucher was able to customize every aspect of the expatriates' life in India.</p>
<p>Personally guided, customized, safe, educational and entertaining trips – without walking right into tricky tourist traps – conduced to everyone's enjoyment and motivation.</p>
<p>Welcome side effect: some undecided employees who hesitantly stayed behind in their home countries soon got to know about the convenience provided by Kulturtaucher and his full range of intercultural services on-site and so found motivation to join their colleagues in India.</p>
