THE LEGEND OF BDB<\/strong> Emergence of Market Research in India<\/strong><\/p>\n In the late seventies and early eighties of the twentieth century, familiarity with the analysis of the fast moving consumer goods markets was growing in India, yet industrial markets and their analysis remained a little known science.<\/p>\n By that time, however, market research had become an integral tool of successful marketing managers in Europe and elsewhere in the developed world. All decisions dealing with markets and customers were mainly taken on the basis of market research inputs; whether it was expansion of existing markets, identification of new markets, product cycle computation, product promotion, measurement of customer satisfaction, channel development, or any other aspects of business development and expansion<\/a>.<\/p>\n By contrast, in the absence of such cutting edge market analysis during the eighties, the Indian industry was obviously at a significant disadvantage and even the brightest of marketing managers had to dig out the required information when making even the smallest decisions as no stats were available readily.<\/p>\n Emergence of BDB<\/strong><\/p>\n To assist industrial marketing professionals in India expand their businesses rapidly by taking informed decisions confidently and fearlessly, BDB created a specialized market research<\/a> facility, exclusively for industrial or B2B markets.<\/p>\n Starting up in the industrialized region of Pune, Maharashtra, BDB brought every modern tool of market analysis and research to the doorstep of the engineering and process industry.<\/p>\n Venturing into Other Sectors<\/strong><\/p>\n In 1991, some consumer durable companies asked BDB to start researching their markets also. Learning and delivering has always been fun at BDB and so BDB\u2019s young team of analysts dived headlong to meet these new challenges. This was just the beginning of BDB\u2019s wondrous voyage!<\/p>\n Timeline of BDB\u2019s Progress<\/strong><\/p>\n 1992-93 was the time of export awakening in India and many enterprises were exploring ISO certification. Customer satisfaction measurement was an inseparable part of the exercise, and BDB developed one of the finest analytical packages for customer satisfaction measurement and analysis<\/a>.<\/p>\n This exciting new science was christened BDB-Q-SAMM and ever since BDB has been the undisputed leader in the satisfaction measurement space. Actually, this BDB capability has since been expanded to qualitative measurement of every kind \u2013 employee satisfaction, channel satisfaction and so on.<\/p>\n By 1995-96, BDB was researching the pharmaceutical and healthcare markets<\/a>. Soon machine tool sector<\/a>, agro machinery sector<\/a>, construction machinery sector<\/a> and agro chemicals sector<\/a> followed. By the turn of the century, many international organizations wanting to enter India knew that BDB\u2019s research was the only one to be trusted \u2013 after all there were occasions when BDB\u2019s research dissuaded clients\u2019 from entering into India, because the timing would not have been right.<\/p>\n By 2000, BDB was widely recognized as a specialized provider of failsafe strategies for growth of businesses through incisive research and analysis. BDB was considered a reliable analyzer of business paradigms and was often called upon to use their formidable knowledge of business linkages that determined the dependence of one business on others. BDB had come to be known as business researchers<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Between 2001 and 2005, BDB concentrated on consolidating its strengths and knowledge in every industry segment it had worked in. As a result, in 2006-07, BDB developed a brand new model of offering research and strategy consultancy expertise in 15 independent industry segments. Through this BDB could offer accurate and timely information to clients that helped them make strategic decisions and meet their business requirements. Customer Retention<\/strong><\/p>\n Another factor BDB perhaps specializes in is customer retention, which seems a daunting task for most companies. Customers keep coming back to us as they are assured of our quality of work. A few customers have been with us for a number of years.<\/p>\n Work Culture<\/strong><\/p>\n During these past twenty eight years, BDB has invested in inimitable ways to build a people\u2019s organization where every member of the BDB team feels integrated with BDB\u2019s customer-oriented, knowledge-driven culture. Everyone in BDB enjoys the freedom of working in a uniquely creative and an intellectually-fulfilling work environment. Once again, BDB is perhaps the only commercial organization that is determined to encourage everyone in the company to live a full and complete life, thereby recognizing that there is a life beyond the office.<\/p>\n The Path Ahead \u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n Forever positive and true to character, BDB has now pledged to quantum-leap on its strengths and at BDB, 2017-2025 has been christened Quality Resurgence Period<\/strong> or QRP<\/strong>.<\/p>\n QRP aims to reinforce and multiply BDB\u2019s strengths in every way so that each customer is served even better. QRP has three components: company infrastructure, company-customer interface and company executives. A complete overhaul of quality is being targeted in each of these areas. In case of the company executives, quality transformation has to be at both levels, professional as well as personal.<\/p>\n BDB shall stay steadfast on the path of providing various industries with thorough and accurate analyses of complex business situations and continue to develop ingenious road maps for rapid growth, enduring success in the global marketplace.\n <\/div>\n [\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" [vc_row][vc_column][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-2433","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"\n
