History

Atharva College of Engineering was initially founded in year 1999 at Borivali (W), Mumbai. . It was located in a temporary building adjacent to MK college and in the premises of a junior school in Borivli. Later on, it moved onto its own campus in Charkop, Malad (W) in the year 2001.

Present status

As of now (year 2007) the college has three streams of engineering taught here - Electronics and Telecommunication, Computers and Information technology. The prescribed strength of each class is 90 although it is normally exceeded by 10-15 students. The building infrastructure especially the reception area and the office is very aesthetically pleasing. The canteen, too, was beautiful until they halved it in size to make room for another classroom. Now it is just plain overcrowded. The college canteen once had Landmark Hotel (from Link Road, Evershine Nagar) catering for them, but now the current caterers serve poor quality & quantity food at reduced rates. The dishes are usually a health hazard in themselves.

The Engineering building also houses the management section which is on the 4th floor. The adjacent building houses the catering section and also a canteen that is manned by some of the catering staff.

Engineering streams

• Information Technology
• Computer Engineering
• Electronics and Telecommunication

120 seats in each

• Electronics Engineering{Admission starting from 2008}

60 seat

Discipline

Attendance, has now become a stricter policy for a college that was once accused of being too lax.

Management

Shri Sunil Rane is the Secretary of Atharva Educational Trust. Currently, the once dubious college has acquired a reputation and good standing. However, the state of equipment in its labs (as with any other college) do leave a fair amount to be desired. Prof. Varsha Bhosale is now the new Vice-Principal of the college.

AIMpromote on Handling Leads and CRM

CRM

When we come across such a term, we wonder what does it mean? What is it relevant to? Do we really need to know what is it? Will it help?

Well i will discuss all the above questions in my review about a CRM software.

What is CRM ?
Customer relationship management (CRM)(see Wiki) is a broad term that covers concepts used by companies to manage their relationships with customers, including the capture, storage and analysis of customer, vendor, partner, and internal process information.


What is it relevant to?
Long-term Market Plans can be made and Quantitative as well as Qualitative measures (targets) can be set for a defined period and for different product groups, geographies etc. These are then monitored based on the actual performance throughout the defined period. Thus expanding your business and giving it a global platform.

Will it help?
Imagine a whole database managed by a simple software enabling to to manage them, plan your strategies. It becomes so easy and saves a lot of time.

Now lets get a deeper analysis of why CRM is highly recommended and some really good CRM softwares up in the store.

There are three aspects of CRM which can each be implemented in isolation from each other:

* Operational - automation or support of customer processes that include a company’s sales or service representative
* Collaborative - direct communication with customers that does not include a company’s sales or service representative (self service)
* Analytical - analysis of customer data for a broad range of purposes

Several commercial CRM software packages are available which vary in their approach to CRM. However, CRM is not just a technology, but rather a comprehensive approach to an organization's philosophy in dealing with its customers.
Superior to traditional CRM softwares, AimPromote is the best choice for increasing sales and improving business intelligence. This software can be found at http://www.aimpromote.com. Moreover you get a 14 day free trail to see if this software is really waht you are looking for. Also it stands apart form its competitors by offering various benefits like No setup fees
Integrating the system with company's website
Web Based

The features of this software can be viewed at http://www.aimpromote.com/features
To name a few Lead Management
Reporting
Sales Force Automation
User Management and Authentication
Support and Consultation
Website Integration and Internet Marketing

One of the most important aspect of this software is its Lead Management
This software is focussed particularly to handle leads because Aimpromote knows what is the importance of leads, as the leads finally get converted into Sales Revenues for the company. This feature deals with processing Leads, carrying out a sanity check,and finally has the ablity to sell the leads.

So if you are looking forward to give your business a global platform, give it what it needs a AimPromote CRM software.

Outsiders Bye-Bye

Kolkata: The West Bengal Government will no more enroll students from other states to its six govt. run engineering colleges. It has also decided not to hold the Joint Entrance Examinations (JEE) in any state, except in Agartala.

"Following the example of medical colleges in the state, government engineering colleges will now give admission to only those students, who are residents of the state," said state Higher Education Minister Sudarshan Roy Chowdhury.

After a meeting with the vice-chancellors of Bengal Engineering and Science University (BESU), Jadavpur University (JU), West Bengal University of Technology and principal secretary of the higher education department, the education minister said the decision has been taken to conduct a hassle free examination.

Mr Chowdhury said that an outside state centre at Agartala will be retained to facilitate the entry of students from the North Eastern states. However, students from other states can take admission into private engineering colleges.
