"Everyone has a dream but only few have the passion to transform the dream into a vision which has the power to touch the depth of reality, Mr. Rohidas Moray, fondly referred as Dadasaheb, streamed ahead in the lane of Construction Equipment manufacturing with his Visions. He started a company with intellectual potential over three decades ago in the year 1974. This company was called UNIVERSAL. UNIVERSAL started with a humble beginning by providing its own produce like oil lubrication pumps and gear boxes to major industrial giants. UNIVERSAL has achieved great heights with its expertise and detailed execution in the past years. It has been blessed by exponential opportunities to test its metal in the course of time. In the mid-80s, UNIVERSAL was given a chance to display its expertise by working on a project for DRDO (Defense Research & Development Organization). UNIVERSAL put in all its efforts to come up with a Nitric acid pump to be used in the country’s combat weapon - the Prithvi missile. The topping on the cake was when Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam - Ex President of India personally tested the pump at Hyderabad and approved of its use in missiles - as an import substitute. In the year 1982, Dadasaheb stumbled across an opportunity which was a turning point in the UNIVERSAL history. A friend of Dadasaheb requested him to develop a Concrete block-making machine. The manufacturing success of this equipment catapulted Dadasaheb into the Construction Equipment manufacturing frame. With a workforce of 30 to 40 workers UNIVERSAL started the manufacturing of its small Concrete Mixers at its Warje workshop, which was set up in the year 1991. In the same year UNIVERSAL achieved yet another striking goal by exporting its first ever produce to Sri Lanka. The Warje workshop was bursting with energy and production of Construction Equipment was on high spirits. UNIVERSAL supplies 50% of its produce to illustrious companies. UNIVERSAL never missed to participate in events which gave them opportunities to showcase their talents & competencies. UNIVERSAL participated in an exhibition - Constro'91 which resulted in great success. Mr. Ranjeet Moray, the elder son of Dadasaheb joined the UNIVERSAL band wagon in the year 1994, and introduced the First Five year plan. Like father, he too set ambitious goals to benefit Company upraise, such as: 1. Expansion of Sales & Service network 2. Broadening of base of Construction Equipment 3. Standard of Construction Equipment Mr. Abhijeet Moray, the younger son, joined Dadasaheb with his professional training in Management and Cost Accounts in 1997. He also brought along with him his ability to be a cheerful management leader, which later helped him to deftly handle labour and logistics. In the coming years UNIVERSAL, headed by Dadasaheb and his sons took this company to greater heights. In 1996, the Warje workshop was shifted to a new and big facility at Shirval. With this new beginning UNIVERSAL also opened up 15 branch offices all across Maharashtra. The next year, saw the incoming of new construction products such as Reversible Drum Mixers which were indigenously designed, and also mobile batching plants. UNIVERSAL turned into an ISO certified company and launched its own website displaying its wide range of power house products in the same year. High and lows are a part and parcel of life. 1997 witnessed a recession in Real Estate market. UNIVERSAL took this downfall into its stride and transformed it into a success story. The focus was effectively changed towards manufacturing special equipment for construction of dams, irrigation projects. The designs were delivered with personal involvement on-site. The year 2001 - 2005 is considered to be the Golden Era in the history of UNIVERSAL. This was the Second Five year plan of UNIVERSAL. Introduction of new products like Batching plants, Reversible Drum Mixers, Passenger-cum-Material Lifts and Works Platform. In 2004, UNIVERSAL participated in Bauma - the largest and prestigious exhibition in the world for Construction Equipment in Munich, Germany. This exhibition gave UNIVERSAL a hands-on chance to tap into the Export scenario by getting overseas orders for products through merchant exporters. To support this high flying thought, UNIVERSAL laid the foundation stone for the Shiware Plant which was slated to be a state-of-the-art manufacturing plant. The Third Five Year plan began in 2006 and was set with high goals to be achieved. • Set Global Service Network in Middle East and Africa • Expansion of manufacturing base for more Production • Introduction of heavy range of Construction Equipment • To set assembly units in North, East, South and Central India • To establish a 100% EOU (Export Oriented Unit) The year 2006, brought in lot of joyous moments for UNIVERSAL and is continuing till date. • The Shivare factory was opened. • Shindewadi factory as acquired and production commenced. • 4 Strategic Business Units were formed. • Assembly units were set up in Jaipur, Kolkatta, Bangalore, Ahmedabad and Nasik. • Distribution offices in Qatar, Oman, Africa amongst 13 other places with Dubai being UNIVERSAL's own office. • UNIVERSAL participated in the Bauma for the second time and received an overwhelming response from all over the world. • Received the status of MEGA Project & signed an agreement with the Government of Maharashtra. • Organizational development initiatives undertaken such as implementation of Kaizen, Quality Circle. • ISO 14000, ISO18000. • Inducted external professional directors on the board. • Introduction of Brand Ambassador- Ms. Sagarika Ghatge of ""Chak de India"" fame. • Setup service vans all over India. • UNIVERSAL has started a unique training facility ""UNIVERSAL Construction Machinery Training Centre (UCMTC)"" for construction equipment operators at its Shiware plant. 20 Engineers holding the reigns of a structured R&D prepares to launch one product to be launched each month over the next 12 months.
