INDUSTRIAL PROFILE

“HISTORY OF POWER SECTOR DEVELOPMENT IN INDIA”

Power Development :

The electric power generation in India on a commercial basis is almost a century old,

substantial power development efforts began only after independence. At the launch of the First Five

Year plan in1951, power generation was recognized as a major input for the country’s economic

development and was accorded high priority. Power sector outlays have among the highest in

successive Five Year Plans ever since. The two plans focused on hydropower (as component of

multi-purpose projects). Subsequent plans emphasized on rapid installations of thermal power

stations. As a result of plan efforts, India’s installed power generation capacity grew to 16,664MW

in 1974. However, assessment of the planned growth since 1951 indicated that with the uneven

distribution of resources, power development with only states as spatial units would result in large

inter-state imbalances. This, and the need for quicker and greater capacity addition, led the

Government Of India to assume a leading role in large-scale power generation as a matter of policy

and, through an amendment of the Electricity (Supply) Act, National Thermal Power Corporation

Ltd. (NTPC) and National Hydroelectric Power Corporation Ltd. (NHPC) were set in the central

sector to supplement the efforts of the states. Consequently, total installed capacity of power utilities

has increased from 1,362 MW in 1947 to 1,04918MW in March 2002. Electricity generation, which

was only about 4.1 billion units in 1947, has risen to 515 billion units in 2001-02.

As on March 2002, the total installed capacity of utilities stood at 104918 MW. Most of this

installed capacity is under government control nearly 60% of the power generation capacity.

Currently, the central government owns about 30% of the power generation capacity in the country,

the majority of which is in the thermal sector. Of the total installed thermal capacity of 25366.50MW

in central sector, NTPC’s share is 20092MW (76.61%).

“HUMAN RESOURCES AT NTPC”

Powering India’s Growth: - through people

NTPC strongly believes in achieving organizational excellence through Human

Resources and follows “People First” approach to leverage the potential of its 23,500

employees to fulfill its business plans. Human Resources Function has formulated an

integrated HR strategy, which is rests on four building blocks of HR viz. competence

building, commitment building, culture building and system building. All HR initiates are

undertaken within this broad framework to actualize the HR vision of “enabling the

employees to be a family of commitment world class professionals making NTPC a

learning organization”.

To induct talent and groom them into dedicated cadre of power professionals “Executive

Trainee” Scheme was introduced in the year 1977 for recruitment in the discipline of

Mechanical, Civil, Electrical, Control &Instrumentation and now encompasses Computer

Science, Chemistry, HR and Finance disciplines also.

Besides a comprehensive one-year training comprising theoretical inputs as well as on-

the-job training, the new circuits are attached with Senior Executives under a systematic

and formal ‘Mentoring System’ of the company to integrate them into the culture of

company.

As part of the post employment training and development opportunities, a systematic

training plan has been formulated for ensuring minimum seven man days training per

employee per year and includes level-wise planned intervention designed to groom

people for assuming positions of higher responsibility, as well as specific needs based

interventions based on Scientific Training Needs Analysis.

NTPC has created 15 project-training centers, 2 simulator training centers and an apex

institute namely ‘Power Management Institute’ (PMI). While the project training centers

(Employee Development Centers) have specialized in imparting technical skills and

knowledge, PMI places emphasis on management development. Besides opportunities for

- 13

long-term education are also provided through tie-ups with reputed institutions like IIT

Delhi, (M.Tech in Power Generation Technology), MDI Gurgaon (Executive MBA

programmes), BITS Pilani (B.Tech) etc. in order to realize the HR vision of making

NTPC a learning organization by providing opportunities to continually learn new

capabilities a number of initiatives have been taken.

NTPC open competition for Executives Talent (NOCET) is organized every year in

which teams of executives compete annually through oral and written presentation on a

topical theme. Similarly “Professional Circle” has been formed department wise where

Executives of the department meet every fortnight to share their knowledge and

experiences and discuss topical issues. In order to tap the latent talent among non-

executives and make use of they’re potential for creativity and innovation, Quality

Circles have been set up in various units/ offices in NTPC.

Besides a management journal called “Horizon” is published quarterly to enable the

employees to share their ideas and experiences across the organization. Demonstrating its

high concern for people, NTPC has developed strong employee welfare, health &well-

being and social security systems leading to high level of commitment. NTPC offers best

quality of life through beautiful township with all amenities such as educational, medical

and recreational opportunities for employees and their family members. The motivational

to perform and excel is further enhanced through a comprehensive NTPC Rewards and

Recognition System.

In order to institutional a strong culture based on values a number of initiatives are taken

to actualize the vision and core values (B-COMIT) across the company. A culture of

celebrating achievements and a strong focus on performance are a way of life in a NTPC.

NTPC has institutionalized “Development Centers” in the company to systematically

diagnose the current and potential competency requirements of the employees with the

objective of enhancing their development in a planned manner. These centers give a good

insight to the employees about their strengths and weakness, the gaps in their

competencies, which they can bridge through suitable support from company.

Due to innovative people management practices there is a high level of pride and

commitment amongst employees as reflected in the “Best Employees in India-2003”

survey by Hewitt Associates in which NTPC bagged coveted third rank. Further

PMS Process :

The PMS process is broadly divided into the following stages:

Performance Planning

Mid Year Review

Annual Assessment

Normalization

Feedback, Coaching and Counseling

- 22

1. Performance Planning:

Performance Planning is the process of:

Defining expectations i.e., the work to be done, the results/ targets to be achieved

and skills/ competencies needed to achieve these objectives.

Setting “Measures” and “Targets”, determining priorities and weightages of

results to be achieved.

Identifying and allocating appropriate resources (such as manpower, tools, training,

budget etc.) to enable the executive to achieve the targets.

While defining work objectives and measures, it is necessary to ensure that:

Goals/ Targets/ Objectives are SMART (Specific, Measurable, Agreed, Realistic

and Time bound)

Results are substantially within the executives control.

Measures relate to results.

Data are available for measurement.

Agreement on mutually agreeable and achievable Performance targets is arrived at

after sufficient discussion between Reporting Officer and executives have taken

place.

2. Mid Year Review:

Performance management is not an event but an on going process. Mid Year Reviews

helps in the following ways:

Reinforcing good performance in time.

Updating the status of targets i.e., progress review.

Identifying areas for “mid course” correction.

Revisiting KPAs and goals, if necessary.

- 23

Assessment resources and skill requirements affecting the individuals

performance

Discussion and feedback on functional competencies, managerial competencies,

potential competencies and core values actualization.

Providing early warnings of non-performance, i.e., avoiding year end surprises.

3. Annual Assessments:

The objectives of annual assessment are to:

Discuss and arrive at an assessment of performance with respect to agreed

targets.

Assess the competencies, potential and core value actualization by the

individual.

Agree upon improvement plans and development plans and development needs

for the individual.

4. Normalization

Ensure parity and integrity by minimizing variation in rating by different

reporting officers across various department and locations.

Enhance objectivity and transparency in the appraisal system.

To view individual and performance from the perspective of organizational

achievement.

5. Feedback, Coaching and Counseling

In order to make PMS an open system and to enhance development orientation across

the organization; feedback, caching and counseling are essential components.

Communication the final performance results of the executive and providing

developmental feedback are critical to this process.

5.1 Feedback

Providing feedback on performance presents the following benefits:

- 24

Creates transparency making PMS more acceptable to individuals.

Reinforces good performance on time.

Enables development of coaching and mentoring relationship between reporting

officer and executive.

Ensures that organizational objectives are achieved to an acceptable standard and in

an acceptable form.

Providing performance feedback is a delicate matter and the reporting officer should

create suitable conditions for providing performance feedback in the most effective

manner.

In general

Feedback should be focused on the specific performance actions and not

on the personality of the executive.

Feedback should be generated after reviewing all achievement and issues

throughout the assessment period and not focused on isolated incidents.

Feedback calls for maintaining a log of critical occurring during the

assessment period for recording both achievements and failures with

details, as an aid to memory during performance discussions with the

executive.

Feedback be given as regularly as possible so that enough opportunities

are created for executive to bridge performance gaps through self-

development.

5.2 Coaching and Counseling

Coaching is an on-the-job approach to help individuals to develop and raise their

skills and levels of competence. Coaching typically consists of:

Making executives aware of how well they are performing and their present

level knowledge and skill.

Providing guidance to individuals to enable them to complete their work

satisfactorily.

Motivating individuals to learn new skills and develop themselves.

- 25

Facilitating individuals to raise their level of contribution and achievement.

Counseling in the PMS context essentially is a process by which executives can receive

assistance in sorting out issues and related to current and future responsibilities and

aspirations. Therefore, Reporting Officers are required to encourage individuals to plan

for their own self-development. The process of counseling is through:

Recognition and understanding of existing strengths.

Empowering, i.e., enabling the individual to recognize their own problems

and expressing the same.

Facilitating actions through guidance and expertise, i.e., facilitating the

process whereby the individual evaluates alternatives and formulates action

plans to achieve the most suitable course of action.

Helping individuals to take ownership of their chosen action.

Coaching and Counseling together act as a feedback mechanism for the individual on

his/ her performance. Reviewer/ Reporting Officer to communicate the areas for

development and improvement to the executives often uses it.

The PMS form

The PMS form is divided into seven parts:

1. Performance Planning and Assessment (Part-I)

a) Dashboard of Key Performance Areas (KPAs) (Part IA)

may be modified by the reporting officer in consultation with the executives (the changes

may be aligned as per business/ functional plans, focus areas, priorities of the

management, unit/ department level goals etc.).

6. Each KPA constituent has three levels of targets which is to be decided jointly by the

reporting officer and executive:

The “Stretch Target” indicating a degree of difficulty built into the target

requiring extra efforts for achievement of the same, such as controllability, skill

requirement, innovation and so on.

purview and ensures that the reporting officer has been objective and unbiased in his

scoring of various executives, particularly with respect to the sections relating to

Competencies, Values and Potential.

Where required, the reviewing officer may recommend some changes to the scores

administration; follow-up, tracking and analysis of PMS activities as per schedule in

his/ her respective location.

To ensure collection, collation and forwarding the Individual Development Needs

forms to the concerned EDC/ Regional HRD/ PMI.

5 Normalization Process

Key Elements of the Normalization Process

Executives would be normalized within a cluster with a population of at least 15

executives.

- 38

Depending upon the level, location and the number of executives in the given level/

function, executives would be normalized either at the plant, Regional Headquarters

or Corporate Centre level.

Corporate HR would notify the composition of clusters at each grade from time to

time.

In respect of executives on secondment/ lent to subsidiaries/ JVCs, normalization

would be done in respective entities.

The Performance Management Committees comprising cross-functional members

specifically set up for the purpose would do normalization.

The Performance Management Committees would be the highest level of decision-

making body for PMS for the respective level and cluster as the final accepting

authority.

Constitution of the clusters and Performance Management Committees has been

defined as part of the PMS policy.

If some clusters need to be merged due to lack of minimum quorum within the

cluster, such merged clusters should be put up for approval by the concerned PMS

Officer with the concurrence of the respective GM or ED to Corporate HR.

The authority to chance the cluster composition across the organization at all levels

rests solely with GM, Corporate HR.

Output from the Normalization Process

At the end of the process, all executives within a cluster would be categorized into the

following categories:

Top 20% of the cluster

Middle 70% of the cluster

Bottom 10% of the cluster

Performance Result

The performance scores finalized by the Performance Management Committee and the

categorization at the end of the normalization process are final. They are not liable for any

revision and change later.

- 39

Normalization Steps

1. The Performance Management Committee should normalize the performance of executives

within a cluster in the context of the overall performance of the unit/ department vis-à-vis

the targets laid out in the MOU, unit plans and functional plans for the year to ensure that

individual performance assessments are in alignment with overall unit/ department

achievements against targets.

2. The Performance Management Committee plots the distribution of the scores for the cluster

to determine whether there is any skewing towards higher or lower scores in any of the

departments vis-à-vis the other departments within the cluster.

3. Checks are made for data incompatibility resulting in skewing of scores. The data integrity

checks could be on the following areas:

KPA Target

Whether targets have been set at equally challenging levels across

departments.

Whether “stretch targets” are truly stretch within a department.

Competencies

Whether ratings have been very generous.

Whether competencies (functional/ technical or managerial) have been

assessed reasonably i.e., at “Meets Expectations” level.

Whether too many executives in a department have been overrated (or

underrated) on competencies (exceeds expectations).

Whether certain executives have been overrated (or underrated) consistently

on all the functional and managerial competencies.

Core values

Whether rating have been very generous.

Whether too many executives in a

department have been overrated (or underrated) on core values.

Whether certain executives have been

overrated (or underrated) consistently on all the core values.

Potential

- 40

Whether ratings have been very generous.

Whether too many in a department have been overrated (or underrated) on

potential competencies.

Whether certain executives have been overrated (or underrated) consistently

on all the potential competencies.

4. After checking the integrity of the above data, the Performance Management Committee

makes suitable adjustments in the scores in the relevant sections of the concerned individuals.

5. If the reviewing officer is not part of the Performance Management Committee, than if

required, the committee may call the reviewing officer to discuss the scores or evaluation

carried out for a particular executive.

6. The final scores and the reasons for adjustments, (if made), are documented in the PMS form

in the section provided. An indicative list of reasons for PMS score adjustment is provided in

the Annexure.

7. After the above steps, executives within each cluster will be categorized into Top 20% of the

cluster, Middle 70% of the cluster and Bottom 10% of the cluster. The normalization process

would be iterative until the above categorization is achieved.

8. The consolidated list of executives categorized as above for all members of the respective

Performance Management Committee will sign each cluster together with the final score for

each employee.

9. The concerned HR would facilitate the entire process of normalization in the role of a

convener.

10. Individual PMS forms of executives would be signed by the Member Convenor of the

respective PMC as per the table below:

Level Location Member Convenor

E1-E5 For Plant Head-Plant HR

For Region Head-RHQ HR

For Corporate Center Head-HRD (Promotion Group)

6. Communications and Feedback of Scores

1. After the process of normalization of the scores is completed, the Performance Management

Committee hands over all the PMS forms to the respective HR department.

2. HR then consolidates final scores, relative rankings and feedback from the Performance

Management Committee for all executives.

3. HR prepares a summary sheet of score, relative ranking and feedback from Performance

Management Committee for the executives under each reporting officer along with the

individual Feedback forms, duly filled and sends the same to the reporting officers.

4. The concerned reporting officer signs off the individual feedback forms as per the summary

sheet provided by HR and hands over the same to the executives in order to communicate the

final score, relative ranking and the feedback.

7. Administration of PMS

1. Executive Directors and General Managers will facilitate implementation of PMS by

monitoring progress, removing any difficulties or roadblocks and ensuring completion of

assessments and submission to HR as per the dates provided in the PMS calendar for their

respective Units/ Departments/ Regions

2. The concerned business unit head/ functional head should cascade his KPAs to the executives

reporting to him based on MOU targets for that year with suitable stretch targets to ensure

organizational excellence. This process may be finalized in an SMC meeting/ departmental of

- 42

group heads meeting as the case may be, which is to be held in the second half of March of

each assessment year.

3. The primary responsibility for filling up the PMS form and setting the progress in the motion

rest jointly with the reporting officer and the executive as per the time frame provided.

4. Any difficulty or difference that may rise between the reporting officer and the executive in the

process of implementation of the system would be sorted out through the intervention of the

Reviewing Officer. If the executive is still not satisfied with the decision of the Reviewing

Officer, especially in the case of annual assessment and/or the final score awarded by the PMC,

then the concerned executive may place his case before the next higher authority above the

PMC. In the case of E1-E5level executives, since the PMC includes the GM of the plant, the

final authority to settle the issue will rest with the ED, Region. Similarly for executives where

normalization is being done at the level of ED, Region, the executive may approach the

concerned Functional Director and where the PMC consists of functional Director, the final

authority to settle the grievance will rest with the CMD.

5. If any executive dose not participate in the PMS process (setting of KPAs, attending mid year

review or annual assessment meetings, filling relevant sections of the form etc. on time)

despite being given ample opportunity to do so, the reporting officer has the authority to

complete the form in absence of the executive and forward the same to the Reviewing Officer

indicating the non -participation of the executive. The Reviewing Officer may offer an

opportunity to the executive to be head. Having verified that indeed the executive has

voluntarily decided not to participate in the process despite being given sufficient opportunity,

the Reviewing Officer forwards the form to HR, duly completed and with his approval of the

process followed under the circumstances.

6. In the event of the creation of a new role or department, the concerned HR department will

develop KPAs and Functional Competencies for that particular role/department in consultation

with the respective head of department. Also, if for an existing role, new competencies/KPAs

were required to be added, the concerned HR department would compile the same in

consultation with the respective head of department. Such new role or competencies defined

should be validated with Corporate HRD.

7. The key role in HR department in the PMS administration is to:

Issue PMS forms as per schedule

- 43

Collect forms as per schedule

Monitor adherence to dates

Highlight non- compliance/exception to top management

Sent copy of Individual Training and Development Plan to concerned HRD/EDC/PMI

Convene Performance Management Committee meetings

Consolidated feedback, final scores and relative ranking of all executives

Prepare “Final Score Feedback Form” for each executive and provide to respective

reporting officer.

8. The responsibility across various level and location for PMS administration lies with the PMS

Officer, so designated at each Plant, Region and Corporate.

9. Convening responsibility of the Performance Management Committees is as provided in the

table below:

Transfers

Executive and/ or reporting officer transferred during assessment year:

- 44

a) If the executive or the reporting officer has spent less than three months of the assessment

year prior to transfer from the department, then no assessment needs to be carried out for

the executive for that period by that reporting officer.

Fresh KPAs will have to be issued by the new reporting officer in the new department/

location and these will form the basic of executive’s annual assessment for that year, which

will be done solely by the new reporting officer.

The new PMS form will provide the total score for normalization only and the

normalization cluster would be based on the executive’s new position.

b) If the executive or the reporting officer has spent more than three months of the assessment

year prior to transfer from the department than an assessment must be carried out for the

executive duly signed off by the reporting officer for the relevant period followed by a

review of the same by the Reviewing Officer.

Fresh KPAs will have to be issued by the new reporting officer and the executive’ annual

assessment for that year will comprise both the old as well as the new PMS form, duly

signed off by the respective reporting officers.

The total score for normalization will be provided by both the PMS forms proportionate to the amount of time spent in each department. The normalization cluster would be based on the executive’s new position.Executive Promoted During the Year

a) Executive promoted during the assessment year would be issued new PMS forms, if

promotion is accompanied by the change in the role –brand or change of job responsibility

or transfer.

b) If an executive is promoted within the same role band and continues to remain in the same

department under the same reporting officer with substantially the same responsibilities and

KPAs, then the existing PMS format will continue to be used. At the end of the year, he is

assessed on the same KPAs and the total score for normalization purpose is also derived

from it.

The executive will be normalized in the cluster applicable after promotion. If the same

responsibilities are added as a result of promotion, the same can be incorporated in the

PMS format during the Mid -Year Review.

c) If an executive is promoted along with the change in the role band, then a fresh PMS form

will have to be filled appropriate to the role band and fresh KPAs will be agreed upon.

- 45

Furthermore, the executive will be normalized in a cluster as per his new grade and

function.

The total score for the year would be calculated using the same 3-month minimum service

principle as in 7.1.1 above.

The respective HR department have to ensure that PMS form are filled and signed off if an

executive has served for a minimum period of three months either in the location or under a

particular reporting officer or within a role band. The released order for the

executive/reporting officer will be issued subject to be fulfillment of this. Thereafter, HR

needs to coordinate with the other HR department where the executive has been transferred

to communicate the proportionate weightage of total score to be used for calculating the

final score.

CONCLUSION

The main reason behind selecting this topic was to get acquainted with the practice aspect of performance management system that is followed in NTPC. After analyzing the questionnaire, and personal interview, I came out with the conclusion that there are no frequencies in the system.

The main thing, I got that most of the employees are having some satisfaction and few are not satisfied of PMS in NTPC.

Finally I found that satisfaction levels of employees are very high in these follows PMS

Aware of all the rules & guidelines KPAs reflect my actual work responsibility. Don’t have any problem in quantifying targets. Access to MOU, Business Plan, Departmental Plans for facilitating target setting. The resources available at my disposal for achieving targets. The actual change necessary for the successful implementation of PACE are at

There should be evaluating the potential of the executive to assume higher responsibilities in the organization.

They should be translating future skill requirement of the organization into individual development plans.

To provide a source of talent for meeting the organization’s growth requirements through a process of mapping the competencies and potential of executives.

PMS should be further aligned with the organizational goals.

Change Management techniques should be used for effective implementation of the PMS System in NTPC.

Culture of frank feedback should be created.

Employees at the higher level should be given suitable training to act as Performance Coaches.

LIMITATION

Some problems I faced while completing this project report are:

Few Employees were not present at the time when I went for survey, so I could not take a large numbers of samples.

Due to shortage of time I could not do detailed survey so the actual data is not written in the project report.

Many employees did not give correct answer of some questions and something were kept confidential.

Some respondent did not show interest in survey and they ignored my effort.

Only five employees attempt my last question which was:Would you like to give some suggestion to the organization for employee benefits?
