Inside SILA: Building India’s Integrated Real Estate and Business Services Platform
It has transformed SILA Group into a very reliable brand name in the services of integrated real estate and business in India. What started as an intensive facility management firm, has developed into a comprehensive platform in the management of commercial, residential, retail, industrial, and institutional assets nationwide. The SILA is known as a structured approach, operational depth and the capacity to provide consistent results in a wide range of portfolios today.
SILA was established at its inception to introduce sanity, consistency and professionalism to the industry that in most cases was not homogenous. The organisation grew its competencies over time to provide end-to-end solutions such as the management of facilities, real estate advice, material handling solutions, food and catering services, and development support. This integrated model enables the clients to oversee the whole asset life cycle using one, responsible entity.
A combination of leadership between the founders has helped shape the company to its current state. Sahil Vora introduced a clear sense of developing a professionally operated, technology-intensive services platform, whereas Rushabh Vora worked on developing well-developed systems, governance structures, and execution discipline. They shared a culture in which scale is never compromised to control or quality.
The strategy of SILA is based on the consistency and structure. The standardisation of processes, specialised training programmes and performance based systems make sure that all the sites, be they big or small run at the same level. At corporate offices and residential neighborhoods as well as at industrial and retailing settings every project is handled with accuracy and accountability.
In addition to operations, SILA has now diversified to real estate advisory and development services which assist clients in the early planning phases up to the long-term management of assets. This whole life cycle engagement enables the company to provide knowledgeable guidance, operational effectiveness and sustainable value in the entire asset lifecycle.
People-first thinking is also one of the strengths of the organisation. Through training, development of leaders and well-established communication channels, SILA manages to have its teams work with assurance, ownership and uniformity. This will allow collaboration with partners in the long run and not in the short-term.
SILA is a reliable business partner in the present day, where the company is relied on by businesses in terms of dependability, order, and scale in real estate services. The firm has a robust operational base, a focussed growth policy, and an emphasis on quality, which is why it still determines the future of the organised real estate services in India.
