Engagement of BCG is a futile exercise – BSNLEU writes to the CMD BSNL..

BSNL Management has engaged the Boston Consulting Group (BCG) for converting BSNL into a leading brand. The Management is paying Rs.132.16 crore as fees to the BCG. Already the Company has engaged consultants such as Delloite and the KPMG. All the recommendations of these consultants have already been implemented. Still, BSNL’s condition has worsened. This is because, the root of BSNL’s problem is lying somewhere else. Government did not allow BSNL to expand it’s network from 2007 to 2012. The present Government has created road-blocks in the launching of BSNL’s 4G & 5G services. The failures of the BSNL Management are also responsible for the present crisis of the Company. Management does not want to utilise the talents available with the workforce. Further, the Management is not settling the burning issues of the employees like Wage Revision and other issues. But, it is spending a huge amount of Rs.132.16 crore as fees to the BCG. The Management wants to outsource 90% of the Company's works to the outside agencies.vBSNLEU has written a letter to the CMD BSNL today, stating that the engaging of the BCG is a futile exercise.
