Soaring white columns and the apex of pyramids make an architectural statement of the philosophy behind the Centre for Excellence.

In a city inspired by the Vision of our Founder and illustrated by landmarks that personify the Tata spirit, the Centre for Excellence adds new dimension to the search for excellence.

Centre for Excellence has the distinction of being the first centre in the country to provide a central facility where organisations of varied management disciplines can work together for the promotion of professional Excellence.

The centre brings together diverse bodies under a common roof, creating the unique opportunity where promoters of science, technology, humanities, art, literature and culture can teach and unite in the common endeavor to improve the overall productivity of national resources.

The centre is jointly managed by Corporate Communication department of Tata Steel and The Society for Promotion of Professional Excellence (SPPE).

The SPPE is a non-profit organisation that has Tata Steel as its founder member and leading Tata companies and professional institutions as its corporate members. Through its corporate and institutional members SPPE facilitates meetings, seminars, workshops and conferences, providing a forum for education, training and growth of Professional Excellence in the spirit of the Centre.

The three galleries and the Archives at Centre for Excellence trace the company's values and commitments from the founder vision to the present day technology of the steel works.
