Patiala plant head	name TBD — search	Patiala	search	unknown	North India site on PSPCL
Energy manager / utilities, Dewas	name TBD — search	Dewas	search	unknown	MPPKVVCL bill owner

Decision path: plant facilities head (Somesh at Pune; TBD at Dewas/Patiala) → plant VP/factory manager → MD and Deere global facilities standards. Any software touching plant networks also passes Deere global IT/OT security, which is slow.

1.5 Recent news & timing

Oct 2025: 1 millionth tractor at Pune Works.
Jul 2026: Deere & Co settled the US FTC right-to-repair case (10-year commitments). No India impact on plant energy.
Leadership churn in 2026 (Shobha Pandey into Pune Works vehicle assembly Mar 2026; Prasad Indapwar moved to SCF Asia Apr 2026). New managers sometimes want quick cost wins.

2. Energy profile

DISCOM / supply: Connection’s site (JDTCI office) has no plant load. DISCOM: not applicable for the connection — no plant (nearest relevant: MSEDCL for Pune Works, Sanaswadi; MPPKVVCL for Dewas Works; PSPCL for Patiala).

2.1 Bill band

JDTCI office: N/A (commercial office tariff).
Pune Works (tractor + engine + transmission + paint): ₹3–6 Cr/month [~].
Dewas Works: ₹1–2 Cr/month [~].
Patiala (combines, smaller): ₹30–60 lakh/month [~]. All far above Stamped’s ₹30L floor, but buyer is a multinational with group standards.

2.2 Generation & renewables

Deere has corporate decarbonisation targets; rooftop solar and RE procurement likely at Pune Works [~]. Somesh’s profile cites 740 MT CO2 reduction and 30% energy savings across four Asian factories, so internal energy programmes exist.

2.3 EnMS, PAT, ISO

Not public for India plants. Deere runs a Smart Connected Factory programme (Siemens engagement, MES, IIoT).

2.4 Likely ₹ leak categories

Paint shop ovens and booth HVAC, compressed air, machining idle, MD at shift start. Somesh’s BU already chases these, so the pitch must be “verification and closure”, not “we find savings”.

3. Operations, equipment & digital stack

3.1 Process flow

Machining (transmission, engine) → paint → vehicle & cab assembly → test. Dewas: tractor assembly for domestic and export.

3.1a Machine inventory

Class	Present?	Notes
CNC / HMC	Yes `[~]`	Transmission and engine machining at Pune
Paint shop	Yes	Owned by Somesh’s BU
Heat treatment	Likely for gears `[~]`	Not public
Compressors / HVAC	Yes	Facilities

3.3 Digital stack

Smart Connected Factory (MES, IIoT, analytics, AI/ML). Siemens Sambhav lab visit Dec 2023. Path A (existing metering/EMS) is likely, but OT access goes through global IT.

4. Stamped Energy fit analysis

4.1 ICP scorecard

Gate	Result
Bill ≥ ₹30L	Pass at every plant
Geography	Patiala passes North India; Pune/Dewas outside core
Revenue band	Above ₹5,000 Cr `[~]`
Decision speed	Slow (MNC)
Connection authority	None

4.2 Fit score rationale

2/10: R&D connection, MNC buyer, strong internal energy team already.

4.3 Wedge

The strongest wedge is: a single pointer from Pravin to the Patiala or Dewas utilities owner, leaving Pune Works to Somesh Joshi, and pitching closure-and-verification on paint and compressed-air loads rather than discovery.

4.4 Objections

“We have Smart Connected Factory / Siemens” → “We sit read-only on top and close the loop on who does what, with evidence.” “Global IT approval” → start with bill + meter exports, no network connection.

4.5 Pilot design

Patiala (PSPCL) would be the cleanest North India pilot if a contact appears; 60-Day Proof on main meter + compressor feeder.

4.6 Concern scores (Pune Works)

Concern	Score	Who owns it	Why
Energy bill	5	Somesh Joshi (facilities)	Already managed
Maintenance	5	Facilities/maintenance	Mature
Production	7	Shobha Pandey	Export volumes
Overall efficiency	6	Plant leadership	Cost/margin focus

4.7 Pitch sketches

Pravin: pointer request only.
Dewas/Patiala head: “Read-only, one meter, 60 days, verified with evidence; no network change.”
Somesh: see file 10.

5. Before you reach out

5.1 Discovery checklist

Is Pravin comfortable passing a name to plant ops at all?
Who runs facilities at Dewas and at Patiala?
Does Patiala still build combines, and what’s its connected load?
Does Deere India allow third-party read-only data export from EMS?
Is there a global Deere energy vendor already contracted?
Coordinate with the Somesh Joshi thread so Deere doesn’t get two uncoordinated asks
Any gear heat-treatment at Pune Works (furnace load)?

5.2 Do not lead with

Do not lead with a sales pitch to an R&D engineer; keep it to one pointer request
Don’t lead with AI/dashboards; Deere already has Smart Connected Factory
Don’t contact both Pravin and Somesh on the same day with the same ask

5.3 Opening hooks

“Your gear-whine paper was a good read. Different question: who handles utilities at Dewas or Patiala?“

6. Risks, flags, controversies & sources

6.1 Integrity / controversy / regulatory

Main risk: duplicate approach to John Deere through two connections (Pravin and Somesh) could look uncoordinated; sequence Somesh first.
Deere & Co: US FTC + five states right-to-repair antitrust suit (Jan 2025), settled Jul 8, 2026 with 10-year repair-access obligations. US matter, no India plant impact.
India: no CCI action against John Deere India found. Searched: “CCI John Deere India”, “John Deere India penalty”, “Sanaswadi labour dispute”. None found.

6.2 Data quality flags

Revenue figures conflict across aggregators; no audited India figure retrieved.
Deere email pattern sources disagree (FLast@deere.com vs LastFirst@JohnDeere.com vs First.Last@deere.com).
Multiple “Pravin Patil” profiles in Pune.

Connection status	1st-degree LinkedIn connection

Why they fit: Pravin runs global drivetrain NVH simulation and testing from the Pune tech centre. He has no say over plant power, and John Deere India is a multinational with group utilities standards, so a direct sale through him won’t happen. The message is still worth sending as a soft, technical peer note: he can tell us who in Pune Works facilities or Dewas operations looks at the electricity bill. Somesh Joshi (file 10 in this batch) is the stronger route at Pune Works, so this one stays light.

Intro path

Ask Pravin one thing: who owns utilities and the power bill at Dewas Works and Patiala, since Somesh already covers Pune. One-line ask: “Who looks after facilities and electricity at Dewas or Patiala? Happy to mention you or not, your call.”

3. Curated email — to Pravin (short, technical peer intro ask)

Subject: Quick pointer at Dewas or Patiala works

Pravin,

Utso here, co-founder of Stamped Energy. We’re energy-systems researchers from IIT Roorkee and we build read-only software that sits on a factory’s existing meters, finds where the power bill leaks, and verifies each fix with evidence.

I know your world is gear whine and drivetrain simulation, not the plant power bill, so this is just a pointer request. Somesh is already helping on the Pune side. Who looks after facilities or utilities at Dewas or Patiala?

If you’d rather not, no problem at all.

Utso Sarkar · Co-founder, Stamped Energy · stamped.work

4. WhatsApp / LinkedIn DM (to an existing connection)

Pravin, Utso from Stamped Energy (IIT Roorkee energy group). Enjoyed your gear-whine paper in Power Transmission Engineering. Small ask: who handles facilities or utilities at Deere’s Dewas or Patiala works? We do read-only power-bill analytics on plant meters.

5. Cold-call script (≈45 seconds)

Open: “Pravin, Utso Sarkar from Stamped Energy, IIT Roorkee. Thirty seconds?”
Hook: “Not a drivetrain question. We help plants cut electricity cost with read-only software on the meters they already have.”
Proof: “We’re live at a forge in Faridabad and early sites came down 15–20% in weeks, verified with evidence.”
Ask: “Who owns facilities or utilities at Dewas or Patiala? A name is plenty.”
If busy: “Can I drop you a two-line LinkedIn note instead?”
