"Operational excellence should be accessible to mid-size Indian businesses, not just large corporations. That's why every solution we build is practical, ROI-driven, and designed for the realities of doing business in India."

The Story

Not a Consultant.
An Operator Turned Builder.

ntan Networks wasn't born in a boardroom. It was built out of frustration — years spent watching businesses bleed money through manual processes, WhatsApp workflows, and decisions made on week-old spreadsheet data. I knew what the problems felt like from the inside.

With over a decade of hands-on experience in maritime fleet operations, manufacturing execution, and logistics coordination, I've seen every variation of operational chaos. Not as a consultant parachuting in with a slide deck — but as someone responsible for the outcomes.

Intan Networks is my answer to the gap I kept seeing: software companies that understood code but not operations, and operations teams that understood the problems but had no practical path to solving them. We sit exactly at that intersection.

Every solution we build is founder-led. That means when you work with Intan Networks, you work directly with me — not junior developers, not account managers. The person who built it, maintains it.

Journey

From Operations
to Automation.

The background that makes every Intan Networks engagement different from a generic software consultancy.

2013 – 2016
Fleet Operations — Ground Zero

First exposure to the true cost of manual operations inside a maritime fleet management company. Responsible for daily reporting, compliance documentation, and crew coordination across a multi-vessel operation. Saw firsthand how hours were lost to spreadsheets and paperwork that technology could eliminate overnight.

Maritime Operations
2016 – 2019
Manufacturing — Process & Scale

Moved into manufacturing operations, working across production planning, MIS reporting, and supply chain coordination. Managed operations for a company with 300+ employees — learning exactly how bottlenecks compound at scale, and where automation delivers the highest leverage. Built first internal tools to replace manual reporting.

Manufacturing MIS Supply Chain
2019 – 2021
Logistics & Tech Convergence

Combined operations experience with formal software development skills. Led the digitisation of a logistics operation from spreadsheet-based tracking to a fully automated workflow system — achieving a 60% reduction in operational costs. Proved the ROI model that would later define Intan Networks' guarantee.

Intan Networks — Founded

Founded Intan Networks with a clear focus: no generic software, no junior teams learning on client time, no theoretical recommendations. Just founder-led, operations-first automation built for Indian manufacturing, maritime, and logistics businesses. First client: Shisplog, Norway — a 25+ vessel fleet operator.

AI Integration & Training Programs

Expanded into AI training programs after observing that most Indian operations teams had zero practical knowledge of how to use AI tools in their daily workflows. Developed industry-specific curricula for manufacturing and logistics teams — achieving 40–60% time savings on routine tasks across client organisations. Now serving 5 companies across 4 countries.

Honest Positioning

This is NOT for Everyone.

Intan Networks is deliberately selective. We'd rather turn down work than deliver something that doesn't produce measurable results for your business.

We are NOT the right fit if you are —

Seeking the cheapest option rather than the best value
Looking for generic off-the-shelf software, not custom solutions
Unwilling to commit to process change alongside technology
Expecting results without active participation from your team
But we ARE the right fit if you are —
Operations-heavy and tired of manual chaos eating your margins
Ready to invest in systems that deliver measurable, documented ROI
A mid-size Indian business that wants enterprise-grade tools at realistic budgets
Looking for a long-term technology partner who understands your industry

Our Principles

What We
Stand For

Five principles that guide every engagement — not as wall-art, but as operating constraints that shape how we work with clients.

ROI First, Always
Every decision — what to build, what to prioritise, what to delay — is evaluated against a single question: does this deliver measurable return for the client? We document expected ROI before a project starts and measure actual ROI after it lands.
Founder-Led, Always
You hired Hemanshi. You work with Hemanshi. Not a project manager. Not a junior developer. Not an account executive. The person with 10+ years of operational context is the person building your solution and answering your messages.
Indian Realities, Not Silicon Valley Assumptions
Solutions built to run on Indian infrastructure, within Indian budget constraints, for Indian teams. 4G connectivity, Android-first field teams, budget approvals that don't move at startup speed — we design for the reality, not the ideal.
Honest When It Doesn't Fit
If after the free consultation we believe we're not the right partner for you — or that there's a better solution for your specific problem — we'll tell you. Taking on work we can't deliver results in damages both of us. We'd rather be trusted long-term than transactional short-term.
Speed Without Cutting Corners
Our fastest project was delivered in 6 weeks. Our guarantee requires measurable results within the agreed timeline. Speed is a core capability, not a risk. But it never means skipping the operational audit, the requirements review, or the team training that makes solutions actually stick.
