Draft Detailed Project Report

Technology Centre Systems Program – Draft DPR for New TC at Rohtak
c) Alignment of Major Economic Projects: Since a TC will create value for many years 10 and there
are some mega projects in progress which will be completed in the next 10-15 years. This
approach aims to incorporate the possible future growth areas on the basis of these mega
projects. Considering that such economic growth is based on future development, these areas
may not get covered in the above two approaches. The steps included are:
► Identification of major Economic projects & timelines (which have been ratified by the
Government)
► Listing the States & Industries that are getting impacted
► Identifying the emerging clusters for the top industries
Above three approaches resulted in the first list of locations. It was important to create a common
framework to choose the most appropriate location. In this context “systems approach” was applied.
Systems approach takes in to account the presence of entire ecosystem for a TC in the catchment
area 11 and a Location Attractiveness (LA) Index was created.
A Technology Centre will perform better in achieving its objectives if it is established at a location with
better LA Index.
Construct of LA Index:
LA Index Score= Catchment Score * Presence of TC Score
Catchment Score = ƒx (MSME Unit Score * ITI/PT Score * Presence of Major Firms Score* Presence
of Leading Technical Institute Score)
Presence of TC Score= Presence of state/private technology center in the catchment area
Following data prints were captured and analysed:
► Number of MSMEs, Number of ITIs /Polytechnics, Number of Major Firms, Leading
Technology Institutes for R&D
► Existence of TCs in the Catchment area (inclusive of DC-MSME, State Government , and
Private Tool Rooms)
MSME Units: This reflects the concentration of MSME and it is envisaged that larger the number of
units more opportunity for TC to impact the competitiveness.
10 Existing Technology Centers are more than 25 year old.
11 Catchment Area = District of the location and all neighbouring districts (transcending state boundaries) it is
assumed that maximum value creation will be in the immediate surroundings of the Technology Center.
