10. In the News…
Tata Motors, the Indian automaker that's about to burst on the global scene as the new owner of
Jaguar and Land Rover and a long-term partner for Ford Motor Co., is the other face of globalization.
It is a foreign company that employs hundreds of people in metro Detroit and plans to boost its
workforce substantially in the region over the next three years.
"We are adding people in Detroit," said Warren Harris, chief executive officer of Tata's locally based
Incat engineering group.
At a time when the common perception is that Indian companies pay low wages and pilfer good-
paying jobs from the United States, Incat just won a contract for its employees in Oakland County to
develop a vehicle platform from the ground up for a Chinese automaker.
Incat's local engineers work with about 350 customers, including Chrysler, Ford and Nissan,
suppliers and nonautomotive companies, including Boeing, Bose and Gulfstream, said Kevin Fisher,
vice president for engineering and design.

21. INCAT’s Processes
INCAT’s implementation consulting services
focus on helping you realize returns from
technology. Our consultants have extensive
experience successfully implementing Autodesk
Data Management solutions allowing you to
realize the benefits with minimal interruption to
operations.
22. INCAT’s 4D Approach
Discovery An audit to establish what the root cause (rather than perceived) problems / issues /
constraints are with the client. The audit should cover the "as is" scenario, what the
ideal process should be and what the benefits will result from implementing this
vision.
Definition
Encompasses validation of the information gathered in the
Discovery phase as well as further detailed specification of the
solution to be developed. The deliverable is a specification
document and a development proposal that defines the scope of
the project. This ensures that customer expectations are met.
Development
Deployment
Development covers the creation of the solution
from process, organization and technical
perspectives. As the new methods and tools will
result in a change to people’s current working
practices, this change and how it will be managed
are considered at this stage.
This phase of the 4D Process
covers the deployment of the
TOTAL solution to the client.
During the deployment phase,
required training is delivered
and any refinements of the
solution are made due to issues
that arise during production
rollout.
