From a fresh-faced engineer to the CEO of Elomatic India, Abhay Ranjan’s professional journey embodies dedication, growth and strong leadership skills. He explains why team engagement is crucial to his success.

From humble beginnings as a graduate engineer in various pharmaceutical engineering and equipment manufacturing companies to becoming the CEO of Elomatic India in 2011, Abhay Ranjan’s progress is nothing short of inspiring.

His is a unique path that has equipped him with a rare ability to connect with colleagues at every level. “I can build strategies from the top down and the bottom up. My team and I engage on multiple levels, fostering an open culture where titles don’t define us,” he tells The CEO Magazine.

“Our achievements are driven by a powerful, purposeful team, and visionary leadership at every level.”

In Ranjan’s Elomatic, it’s the people who drive success. Elomatic offers comprehensive consultancy and engineering solutions, guiding clients from initial concept to market launch.

“Our projects typically span two-to-three years,” Ranjan elaborates. “We have a dedicated team committed to long-term engagement, continuous learning and exceeding client expectations. This approach has consistently driven our success.”

Catalysts of change

Since the COVID-19 pandemic reshaped our world, the pharmaceutical sector has surged ahead relentlessly. “At Elomatic, we don’t just keep up with the pace, we spearhead the evolution that is happening in the healthcare industry,” Ranjan says.

“After the pandemic, every country is trying to get independent by reducing the import of life-saving drugs. Elomatic provides a single-window solution, handholding the client until the stage where the facility gets installed and qualified.

“This is achievable only through a foundation of innovation and sustainability. Elomatic is powered by the brightest minds in new technology processes, engineering and automation. Instead of following existing paths, we aim to set new standards and redefine industry expectations. This approach has been key to our success in emerging markets worldwide.”

Ranjan firmly believes that Elomatic is led by the strength of its passionate team. “At Elomatic, success isn’t accidental, it’s meticulously planned,” he says. “Our achievements are driven by a powerful, purposeful team and visionary leadership at every level.”


“We have a long association with Elomatic for cleanroom projects and a dedicated team working with Elomatic, which is qualified and experienced in designing cleanroom projects. Our inter-discipline coordination means together we execute the projects seamlessly. Elomatic emphasizes quality products, timely project completion and site safety. Together we’ve successfully executed many cleanroom projects and look forward our continuing relationship.” – CM Rao, Managing Director, TTE-iClean

As an engineering and designing solutions consultancy, Elomatic’s operations are largely dependent on the company’s talent pool.

“This talent pool is our human capital,” he continues. “Indian engineers are widely accepted across the world. India offers a complete ecosystem with regards to engineering manpower, raw material and machinery.”

Elomatic follows robust quality standards to surpass client expectations.

“Our ‘Quality by Design’ is integrated into all our processes, ensuring consistency across teams,” Ranjan says. “While we embrace flexibility in human behavior, we remain aligned with our shared company vision.”

While building a perfect team is always a priority, Elomatic never loses sight of its higher goal – to exceed the expectations of the client.

“We don’t just deliver the project – we create the benchmark with every project we undertake. We live by the mantra of continuous learning and improvement to become better than the best,” he says.

Engineering expertise

Elomatic is known for its proficiency in delivering innovative and sustainable engineering solutions in the health care, pharmaceutical, vaccine, biotechnology, chemicals and food-processing domain in India and other emerging markets, offering services across the entire project lifecycle.

“Once the investor defines their investment needs and the kind of expansion they are looking for, we take care of their capital investment and help in optimizing their operating expenses,” Ranjan says.

This is just the initial stage. “We have a versatile and experienced team to deal with multiple industries and their regulatory compliance requirements,” he explains.

“We deeply appreciate and value our industry partners. Their collaboration is essential for creating future-ready facilities and ensuring top-notch services to our clients.”

Selecting the right technology and equipment providers is a cornerstone of Elomatic’s client satisfaction strategy. The company systematically chooses partners who align with the expectations and goals of its projects – a strategic move that directly impacts client satisfaction.

“We deeply appreciate and value our industry partners. Their collaboration is essential for creating future-ready facilities and ensuring top-notch services to our clients.”

It’s a culture that distinguishes the company from its competitors, according to Ranjan.

“We believe success is an ongoing journey. We foster a culture of continuous learning and provide an environment to face failure without fear,” he says.

“We put the company’s ownership in the hands of the employees and cultivate a lifelong commitment. At Elomatic, passion and leadership are the driving forces behind engineering a brighter future.”
