Executive Summary
Thank you for the opportunity to help in Sterlite’s analytical journey in developing a self service platform for its customers.
SSD is pleased to submit this proposal for developing a proof of concept for Sterlite. SSD offers an unique approach with a solution
that addresses both a technical service and from an end-user perspective that provides flexibility to map key components to your
business needs as well as meet your product objectives.
Global brands trust us – Creating digital customer experiences, Digitizing the value chain, Developing ‘Sense and Respond’ systems
and Shaping innovative business models and partnerships has helped us deliver predictable quality software, lower costs and
ensure end user satisfaction.

Our Approach
Seamless integration of datasets with rapid querying and transformation as specified.
We propose a 9 week Build, Deploy and Live support phase
Requirements- What we discussed

Project Execution Phase: Using Image Analytics to ensure adherence to quality, time and cost
efficiency
Use Case: In any tower erection, some 2-2.5K bolts are tacked in each tower. Currently one person
would take images of the tower from the ground level, and make a quasi-objective assessment of the
erected tower. Any faulty tacking process could lead to tower outage or unstable erection, resulting in
subsequent loss.
Solution: A drone driven elevated multi-angle imagery, with pre-defined tower elevation and other
criteria type, which will be fed to a custom algorithm for image processing.
Benefits: Gang dependency reduction / quality adherence / on-schedule project execution / asset
rationalization / cost efficiency

• Any deviations from the Activity Scope

• Development / Modifications / Enhancements to any of the existing systems, applications, ETL and components related to the process in scope, or any other processes

• Tool Training

• Data Quality fix / Data Profiling / Data Cleansing & Data Governance

• Creation of Calculated Columns for the report. We assume that the QV Data Model is complete & will cater to the current reporting needs.

• Administration and Maintenance of the Development Environment

• Performing UAT is not in scope. We will provide support to this activity.

• Software Installation, Configuration & Environment set-up for DEV, SIT, UAT and production

• Data Backup/ Disaster Recovery Set-up

• Performance testing of any DataMart/Data Warehouse

• Any enhancement to existing Master Data files

• Support beyond 1 weeks of go live

Functional Requirements
Technical Requirements
1. Create a “Computer Vision” led image identification
framework • The POC will be hosted on cloud
• Performance requirements will be determined
2. Perform necessary tagging and mapping for single image
and mutually agreed upon in the requirements
3. Create a Data model and logical structure for the defect
classification and attribute mapping phase of the project
• Input file formats are considered to be the
4. Create image analytics model based on library data for
singular type of defect . same as the sample files provided by Sterlite
• Since this is a POC, no separate development
5. Develop dashboarding and visualization for extracted data
and Production environments are considered
and insights for the defect and image

Out of Scope

• Data Profiling and data cleaning

• Processing unstructured Data
• High Availability of the cloud infrastructure
• Analyzing and assessing the data in the other data sources systems (besides systems of 3 Datasets)
• Creating ETL for Down Stream Systems/Applications
• Disaster Recovery setup

 Assumptions and Dependencies
GeneralAssumptions
• SSD assumes that Sterlite Business Personnel & Technical Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) would be available for meetings and
clarifications sessions as per the project plan developed by SSD PM
• Requirements will be reviewed finalized and mutually agreed in the 1st week of the engagement
• Report templates would be finalized during the initial requirements analysis phase

Data Assumptions
• Data is expected to be complete and void of data quality issues
• Sterlite will furnish the look-up or the master data needed for reporting and loading
• Sterlite shall own the data validation of the base data

Testing
• Sterlite will develop UAT test cases in the design phase of the project
