"I think that it makes good business sense to provide an honest estimate rather than a false low estimate just to get on board with the project. Work is my passion and integrity is indispensable. I shall simply not take a project that can't be delivered with absolute Quality and On Time" 
​
​- Shruti Bhat

"Continuous Improvement starts with the recognition that, a problem exists. Good processes bring great results.
Strive for a positive change and expertly manage the transformation to realize the complete benefit.
Improve processes to increase profits"

- Shruti Bhat
