Evolving from its earlier concept as Rodic Advisory & Technologies, the subsidiary represents Rodic’s shift from being purely an execution partner to serving as the “extended brain” of its clients—offering intelligent platforms, governance strategies, and live data systems to bridge the gap between field operations and strategic decision-making.

“We are delighted to welcome Sinha, whose track record of transformative leadership perfectly aligns with our mission,” said Raj Kumar, Chairman & MD, Rodic Consultants. “Rodic Digital & Advisory combines engineering depth with digital intelligence to deliver evidence-based, execution-aware advisory.”

Sinha, a 1987-batch IAS officer (Jharkhand cadre), has held senior positions including Secretary, Ministries of Rural Development and Steel; Chairman, NHAI; and MD, NHIDCL. He played a pivotal role in major national projects such as the Delhi–Mumbai Expressway, Zojila Tunnel, and India’s Greening Roadmap for the steel sector.

“I look forward to leading this initiative at a time when real-time digital intelligence is redefining infrastructure and governance,” said Sinha. “Our goal is to link execution with strategy to create systems that are both smart and responsive to public needs.”

Rodic Digital & Advisory integrates data science, AI, and policy expertise, with proven platforms such as Bihar’s Bhavya health project and the monitoring of over 13,000 km of road assets in the state. Building on Rodic Consultants’ 25-year track record and 170+ transformative projects, the subsidiary will drive the next phase of tech-enabled, impact-focused governance and infrastructure performance.
