This year BNI Bang Theme was “Business Beyond Boundaries”.
We are an Infrastructure company based out of Bangalore. We had signed a construction project for a CSSD area of a Hospital in Vijayawada. Initially, we thought of sending men & materials from Bangalore to execute this project but the cost of transportation, food & accommodation for 3 months was shooting our budget. Then we decided to take the local suppliers’ & contractors’ help, but their demands were not meeting our expectations in terms of payment terms.
During Bang, I met the BNI ED of Vijayawada Mr. Jai Desai and he connected us with all the BNI members who are in the same business. They not only helped me to complete my project on time but also met our expectations. In this way, we made savings on the project and it was a profitable deal.
This was a great learning for us; to leverage BNI platform across the country, and we are closing more jobs out of our region without any hesitation.
Thanks, BNI.
