Production management :-

Production management is the process of planning, organising, directing and controlling the
activities of the production function.
Production function is the conversion of raw materials into finished products.

21
4.1.2 How production plan is prepared from sales plan

Sales plan prepared by marketing department and sales order

Sequencing the activity


(Important order or order having earlier delivery date are given priority )

Deciding production planning quantity through checking quantity of


current stock of finished goods, work in progress and expected closing stock

Production planning quantity

1. First of all, Marketing Manager will forecast demand of customer and prepare
sales plan according to their requirement or also estimate sales for future period on the
basis of Market situation. Then marketing department gets sales order from customer. At
Dhanhar Exim Pvt LLP, one customer can order via online and direct communication
through telephone or letter or personal talk.

22
2. Here in the second step marketing manager will send the demand data about
each product of Dhanhar to the production department where they will sequence the
activity of production where important products or products whose delivery date is earlier
is given the priority by production department and upcoming season’s product quantities
are also managed, for eg in august month many Hindu festivals comes and many people have
fast on such festivals and in fast people eat products made from water chestnut flour , so production
department have to make water chestnut flour in the month of June and July so that it is
available to marketing department in august.

3. In the third step they will do production planning so that they can have exact quantity. Here
they will first check the current stock of finished product and if production is in progress
then that quantity is also considered and they will subtract both current stock and WIP
quantity from total marketing forecast and they will add expected closing stock at the end
of planning period. Here Dhanhar considers the stock , they have to send to their selling
outlet at Bhagal for sale in current period .

So, production planning quantity = marketing sales forecast- current stock-current Work in
progress (if any) + requirement of Finished product for sales incurrent period + expected closing
stock

Current period = July


Planning period = August

Production plan quantity for water chestnut flour for the month of August =Market forecast (2700
kg) - Current stock (715 kg) – current WIP (00) + current expected sales (280 kg) + closing stock
Expected (600 kg)= 2865 kg So, Dhanhar have to make 2865 kg of Water chestnut flour in the
month of August.

4. In such a way production plan quantity for all products are prepared at Dhanhar Products
LLP.

4.1.13 Inventory control system: -

Inventory:-

Inventory refers to the goods and materials a business holds for the purpose of resale,
production, or utilization. It includes items like raw materials, work-in-progress products, and
finished goods ready to be sold to customers. Essentially, it's the stock of products that a
company has at any given time.

Inventory Control system :-

An inventory control system is a set of tools and processes that help a business keep
track of its products and materials. It ensures that the business knows what it has in stock,
what has been sold, and when to order more.

Classification of inventories according to ABC & VED analysis ABC


analysis

• ABC analysis is also known as Always Better Control method .


• ABC analysis is one of the widely used methods for controlling / classifying the inventory.
• ABC Analysis tells us how to arrange inventory as per their monetary value and
consumption value .
• ABC analysis is used to have a proper control over inventory because when an inventory
is classified, it becomes easy for the manager to decide where more emphasis is to be placed
and where less emphasis is needed.
• Here at Dhanhar products LLP they have ABC system in which they record the transactions
of inventory in computer and arrange them in monetary value and consumption value.

48
Format of ABC system at Dhanhar products LLP

Inventory Units % of total Unit Total cost % of total ABC ranking


name units cost cost

• It has been found from experience that all items included in the inventory are not of
equal importance. A few items in the inventory represent a large proportion of the
total value of the inventory. Hence, more attention must be devoted to the control of
such items. All the items are divided into three categories.

1. A – Category

• It includes those items which are very important and of high value but forms only a
small proportion of total quantity of inventory.

• At Dhanhar, there are 40 items which come in category A and they represent as much as
54% of value of inventories. Strict control over receipt, storage and issue should be
exercised over these items such as Black Pepper, whole cardamom, red chili, turmeric,
dry singoda, Cotton Seeds Oil, Nutmeg, Coriander, Ginger, Plastic Bag (for packing),
Rajgara etc.

2. B – Category

• Items included in category B are not as important as those in category A interms of


money, but are important enough for its proper records to be maintained. They
constitute 65 items of total number of items but represent 28% of total value.

• Here such items are Ajwain, Mint Leaves, Black Salt, Rock Salt, Cinnamon Leaves etc

49
3. C – Category

• The remaining items must be placed in category C. They are not so important from the
view point of maintaining control over the receipt and consumption. Such items
constitute 50% of the total number of items but they represent 18% of total value.

50
VED analysis: -

• In VED analysis, the inventory is classified on the bases of criticality of inventory i.e.
vital, essential and desirable.
• This classification is usually applied for spare parts to be stored / stocked for
maintenance of machines and equipment’s based on criticality of spare parts.
• "VED analysis is done to determine the criticality of an item (generally spare parts) and
its effect on production and other services."

• Vital items are those items without which production will instantly stop all main raw
materials are obviously vital items. Similarly, there can be some another low value
items which are necessary for the production process. As explained above, spare parts
of machines like power generator or Quality control liquid becomes vital items. Spare
part imported form foreign suppliers are also called as vital items. Large amount of
stock is kept for such items. For example for making water chestnut flour dry singoda
is vital product.

• Essential items are those items without which efficiency of production process will
reduce. Absence of these items may not cause total stoppage of production but rate
of production may go down or wastage of material may increase. Low amount of stock
is required for this type of items.

• For Example, Quality control tools, secondary packaging material, etc. are essential
items of Dhanhar Products LLP.
• Desirable items are that items, which are not available that can be manufactured in
house or can be ordered from local vendors. Hence, usually no stocks of such items are
held.
• Example: Optional flavour, special labels decorative elements, etc.
• In Dhanhar Products LLP, there is no system like VED analysis but by doing VED
analysis those who are responsible for availability of various raw material and items
may know which items are important for production process .

51
4.1.14Inventory valuation method: -

Materials are issued to the different jobs, works, and orders from the store. The cost
of finished product largely depends upon the price changed for raw material. Various methods
are used for inventory valuation, which will solve industry condition.

The methods of inventory valuation are as follows:

1. FIFO method (first in first out)


2. LIFO method (last in first out)
3. Average cost method
4. Simple Average price method
5. Standard cost method
6. Base stock method

Dhanhar Products LLP is using FIFO (first in First out Method) for
valuation of inventories, in this method

Guidelines for inventory valuation method: -

Raw material:
Stock different ingredients are values as per the price of purchasing. So if dry water chestnuts
are being purchased at 6 rupee per kilogram and suppose 25 paisa is inspection cost then 6.25
is the value of water chestnut.

Work in progress:
Top management has decided that Work in progress is valued as half the cost of manufacturing
multiply by quantity of WIP.

52
Finished goods:
Final Masala product is being valued as per manufacturing cost multiply by total stock
of finished goods.

Tools and equipment:


There is a stock register of how many tools and equipment's are used. According to this
register tools or equipment's used multiplied by cost or price of those tools and equipment.

4.1.15 Maintenance Planning System


Maintenance planning for various machines done by production department and it is necessary
for continuous production. At the time of break down, one machine can hamper the
whole process of the production and also leads to delay delivery. To avoid all this things,
there is one master key and that is compulsory periodically maintenance.

At Dhanhar Products LLP, maintenance of consumable machine is done on a fixed period and
definitely at the time of breakdown of the machinery point. After breakdown experts for bigger
faults immediately repair machinery.

At Dhanhar Products LLP maintenance of different machines is done on the based on the limits
given to each machines and also keep records for each machines with number
of breakdown in whole month and even for year. If any machinery shows more than expected
breakdowns than it is inform by service man to top management for their replacement of
machinery.

53

55
4.1.17 Quality Control Guidelines Of Raw Materials & Finished
Products

For raw material quality control, first the company checks the quantity in which the order was
being placed and is the product as per the order or not? And check list is being made.

In the 2nd stage company sends the raw material to the laboratory for the checking of quality.

At Dhanhar Products LLP raw material samples are tested for multiple times, at every point of
the supply chain to ensure the highest quality and product consistency. The Dhanhar Quality
Assurance program consists of a fully-integrated Quality control lab which is complete with
testing capabilities on chemical, micro/ macro-sanitary & microbiology parameters as well as
Inspection standard. Here Raw material is tested that if it is of good quality or not and for how
much time it is consumable.

For finished goods:-

Before checking the quality of finished product it is checked that whether the weight
of packaging is proper or not.

Then after it is checked that for how much time product is consumable for example if Tea
masala is consumable within 12 months of packaging and if the product made has expiry date
before given then that production lot may be rejected.

While checking the quality of Finished products, quality of packaging is also checked, here
durability of packing and Labelling is checked.

Removing Dust & Stone it is checked that whether raw material is properly cleaned or not. This
part is more important for ground nut spices.

2. Quality control at grinding stage:

In this stage company checks that whether raw material is properly grinded or not. For
example red chilli powder is to be made. At this stage it is checked whether it is perfectly
grinded and it is in completely powder form or not.

3. Quality control at Mixing stage:

In this stage company checks that whether raw-material is properly mixed or not. For
example in Shambhar Masala rock salt, cuminseed, ginger, dry mango, ajwian, chili, black salt,
dry mango ,mint leaves, compounded asafoetida, Citric Acid is mixed in proper quantity or not
and it is checked through chemical process in the laboratory.

➢ Aggregate Production Planning (APP) is a process that helps businesses plan their
production activities over a medium-term period.
➢ It covers typically 3 to 18 months period of time.
➢ It ensures that a company can meet customer demand in the most efficient and cost-
effective way.
➢ APP involves determining how much of each product to produce, when to produce it,
and the resources needed, such as labour, equipment, and materials.

Step-by-Step Aggregate Production Plan

1. Determine Demand Forecast:

- Collect data on past sales, market trends, and customer orders.

- Example: Forecast demand for the next 6 months for different products like Garam Masala,
Turmeric Powder, and Chili Powder.

2. Inventory Levels:

- Check current inventory levels.

- Example: Garam Masala - 100 kg, Turmeric Powder - 150 kg, Chili Powder - 200 kg.

3. Capacity Planning:

- Assess production capacity (how much can be produced per day/week/month).

- Example: The factory can produce 500 kg of spices per week.

59
4. Production Strategy:

- Decide on a production strategy (chase demand, level production, or a hybrid).

- Example: Use a hybrid strategy - maintain a steady production rate but adjust for peak
demand months.

5. Create a Production Schedule:

- Plan the production quantities for each month.

- Example:

- Month 1: Garam Masala - 400 kg, Turmeric Powder - 300 kg, Chili Powder - 300 kg.

Ensure that necessary resources (raw materials, labour, equipment) are available to meet the
production schedule.

6.Revise Master Production Schedule:


If material and capacity requirements are not adequate, again MPS shall be revised and try to
prepare modified MPS.

4.1.23 Material Requirements Planning of Dhanhar Products LLP

➢ MRP is computer based information system.


➢ It translates the finished product requirements of MPS into time phased requirements of
assemblies, sub-assemblies, components and parts & other information to determine when
to order.
➢ The master production schedule (MPS) used in material requirements planning (MRP)
has been described as the aggregate plan “disaggregated”.

62
Steps in Material Requirement Planning:-

1.Identify Finished Products:

- List all products you plan to produce.


- Example: Garam Masala, Turmeric Powder, Chili Powder.

2.Determine Bill of Materials (BOM):

- A Bill of Material contains a listing of all the assemblies, sub-assemblies, parts and raw
material that are needed to produce one unit of a finished product.
- Create a list of all ingredients and materials needed for each product.
- Example:
- Garam Masala: Cumin seeds, coriander seeds, cardamom, cloves, black pepper, bay
leaves, cinnamon.
- Turmeric Powder: Turmeric roots.
- Chili Powder: Dried red chilies.

3.Inventory Status:

- Check current inventory levels of each ingredient.


- Example:
- Cumin seeds: 50 kg
- Coriander seeds: 30 kg
- Turmeric roots: 100 kg
- Dried red chilies: 80 kg

4.Production Schedule:

- Plan the production quantities based on demand forecast.


- Example:
- Month 1: Garam Masala - 400 kg, Turmeric Powder - 300 kg, Chili Powder - 300 kg.

63
5.Calculate Material Requirements:

- Calculate the quantities of each ingredient needed for the planned production.
- Example:
- Garam Masala (per kg): 0.2 kg cumin seeds, 0.3 kg coriander seeds, 0.1 kg cardamom,
0.05 kg cloves, 0.1 kg black pepper, 0.05 kg bay leaves, 0.2 kg cinnamon.
- For 400 kg Garam Masala:
- Cumin seeds: 400 * 0.2 = 80 kg
- Coriander seeds: 400 * 0.3 = 120 kg
- Cardamom: 400 * 0.1 = 40 kg
- Cloves: 400 * 0.05 = 20 kg
- Black pepper: 400 * 0.1 = 40 kg
- Bay leaves: 400 * 0.05 = 20 kg
- Cinnamon: 400 * 0.2 = 80 kg

6.Check Inventory and Generate Orders:

- Compare required quantities with current inventory and generate purchase orders for
shortages.
- Example:
- Current inventory of cumin seeds: 50 kg; required: 80 kg; shortage: 30 kg (order 30 kg).
- Repeat this for each ingredient.

7.Order Lead Time:


- Consider the lead time for each ingredient (time taken for delivery after placing an order).
- Example: Cumin seeds take 2 weeks to arrive after ordering.

8.Develop MRP Schedule:


- Schedule production and order materials accordingly to ensure timely arrival and
availability.
- Example:
- Place order for cumin seeds 2 weeks before production start date.

64
4 .1.24 Capacity Requirement Planning (CRP) of Dhanhar
Products LLP:

Capacity Requirement Planning(CRP) is techniques for determining what


personal and equipment capacities are needed to meet the production objectives
mentioned in master schedule and material requirement plan.

Steps in Capacity Requirement Planning:-

1. Identify Production Needs:

- Based on the aggregate production plan, identify the amount of each product to be
produced.

- Example: For the next month, produce 400 kg of Garam Masala, 300 kg of Turmeric
Powder, and 300 kg of Chili Powder.

2. Calculate Required Production Time:

- Determine the time needed to produce each product.

- Example:

- Garam Masala: 2 hours per 50 kg

- Turmeric Powder: 1.5 hours per 50 kg

- Chili Powder: 1 hour per 50 kg

3. Determine Total Production Time Needed:

- Multiply the production time per batch by the number of batches needed.

- Example:

- Garam Masala: (400 kg / 50 kg per batch) 2 hours = 16 hours

- Turmeric Powder: (300 kg / 50 kg per batch) 1.5 hours = 9 hours

- Chili Powder: (300 kg / 50 kg per batch) 1 hour = 6 hours

65
4. Evaluate Current Capacity:

- Assess current workforce and equipment capacity (hours available per day/week/month).

- Example:

- Workforce: 2 shifts per day, 8 hours per shift = 16 hours per day

- Equipment: 1 machine for each product line, available 16 hours per day

5. Compare Required Time with Available Capacity:

- Ensure the available capacity meets or exceeds the required production time.

- Example:

- Total required time for the month: 16 + 9 + 6 = 31 hours

- Available capacity per day: 16 hours (with multiple machines available)

- Available capacity per month (20 working days): 16 hours/day * 20 days = 320 hours

6. Adjust Capacity if Needed:

- If required production time exceeds available capacity, adjust by adding shifts, overtime,
or more equipment or MPS should be revised.

- Example: If additional 5 hours per day are needed, consider adding overtime or additional
shifts.

4.2.16 Marketing strategy of Dhanhar Products LLP

1) Product

While comparing Dhanhar products with competitors, Dhanhar is quite ahead. As


Ramdev has 43 Masala varieties while Other competitors like Everest has 43 Masala and S.K
and Gajanand and Nilon etc company have products ranging from 30 to 40 products while
Dhanhar has 50+ Masala with lots of varieties targeting both Non vegetarian and vegetarian
food eaters.

2) Price

On comparing pricing policy with competitors Dhanhar has always kept its price lower
than competitors. For example price of Dhanhar red chilli powder is Rs. 252 of 500 gm packet
while a price of Ramdev red chilli powder is Rs. 270 of 500 gm.

92
3) Place

Dhanhar has all zero level, one level, two level and three level of channels. And on other
side comparing to Ramdev, Everest and S.K Masala Dhanhar have poor distribution channel
because Ramdev, everest, Catch Masala etc have distribution channel all over in India and
generally these Masala are found in every general store or departmental store. So Dhanhar have
all level of distribution channel but due to less number of distributors, other companies found
to be superior than Dhanhar, but Dhanhar rent out the place at famous Mall in the big cities like
Surat, Ahmedabad etc.

4) Promotion

As far as promotion or advertisement part is discussed. Dhanhar do have an appropriate


policy but Ramdev and Everest have advertisements all over India and they do have good sales
promotion schemes for intermediaries and customers and at local level S.K Masala and
Gajanand Masala also have good advertisements in newspapers and many hoardings are found
at many places from that side Dhanhar's target market is south Gujarat and they are able to
attract the customers.

4.2.17 Study of generic level competition


In the Masala industry in Gujarat region, mainly in south Gujarat, Dhanhar has to face tough
competition mainly with Ramdev Masala, Everest Masala, S.K Masala and Gajanand Masala.
Because they are good marketer in Masala industry.

But Dhanhar is able to survive in the competition due to following two reasons.

1. Providing natural products with very less usage of chemicals.


2. Providing free gifts like Shopping Bags, Travelling Bag, Big spoons, Glass Jars, etc.
with their certain products as per their policy.

So, this way Dhanhar is able to survive in tough Masala competition.

93
While in Water chestnut flour market, Dhanhar has to face a little competition with small Atta
maker flour mills who make Singoda flour on small scale basis.

• Though in water chestnut flour competition Dhanhar is market leader due to


following reasons
• Made from fresh singoda and no added chemicals
• more commission to retailers
• It is cheaper in price as compared to others.

4.2.18 Study of control system & reporting system designed for


employees working in field

1) Control regarding Dispatch of goods

❖ The controlling system is very necessary for sales employees. At Dhanhar controlling
system is very clear. No one can take the lot outside the factory before the signature of
dispatching manager.
❖ Dispatching manager issues the bill for the goods which is send out to the factory. This bill
would be collected by the security manager, and then they allowed any one to let the goods
outside the factory.
❖ This system is also applicable for the purchased goods. No one can take the goods inside
the factory, first security manager check the goods and then allowed to enter into the
factory.

2) Control regarding target achievement for distributors

❖ The controlling system regarding sales distributor is in terms of the sales target they have
to achieve given by the marketing manager.
❖ Company also use each Distributor's sales of last a year as a base for sales forecasting and
give them target with adding some percentage in to sales, here they consider the average

94
sales of past three year and add some percentage to average sales. Here if average
performance is higher than last year sales then they give only 2% growth and if average
performance is less than last year sales then they give 5% growth.
❖ If a distributor is able to achieve his goal, he will be rewarded with award like “Best seller
of the year”
❖ If a distributor is failed to attain his goal for continuously for 3 times, he will be removed
from their distribution channel.

4.3.9 Employee Welfare Activities:-

• Welfare activities, before 20 years was never priorities for the companies. Their only
aim was to earn maximum bucks and human talents are just more the source likes raw
material, technology etc., which they exploit as much as they can.

• But in 1990s, whole scenario was changing, global and the companies soon to realize
the power of human assets and how motivated human assets can change their fortune
for the company. So the companies stated investing more in building human assets by
providing various incentives, welfare activities etc. because of employee is able to give
its 100% output to company.

• So, that is how welfare activities for employees marks fortunes for the company, what
welfare activities its employee to retain its no-1 position at Dhanhar Products LLP,
which are as following:-

1. It is providing cold and fresh drinking water from the better, the production area for the
workers and even they are purchasing 30 litres can of mineral water for its workers at
Ashwini kumar layout and 10 litres for staff members and customers at Bhagal
administrative office.

124
4.3.10 Employees records kept
1) Attendance records

2) Wage and salary register

3) Recruitment and selection related records

4) Training and development record

5) Compensation details

4.3.11 Training & Development:-

• As we already know the basic difference between the training and development.
Training is given to employee for doing specific job by giving knowledge of specific
skills and development on the other means overall increase in talent, so that employee
can handle any future jobs, which marks as future bright. So, there is vast difference
between training and development. Generally training is given at the workers level,
where one just repairs specific skill for completing a specific task. But development is
needed at the executive level, where one has to live in dynamic and ever-changing
environment, so today every company are investing heavily in training and
development of employees as they have realized that what is needed to on the top of
this world.
• Now we will see how Dhanhar Products LLP is satisfying the training and development
needs of its employees.
• At the workers level, they are not recruiting any person from outside for the training of
workers. They basically rely on existing workers, who are on the workers level from
quite some years to give training so fresher workers, can trained without any cost. But
for specific requirement they even higher professionals for the training of their workers.

• If we talk about staff members particularly technical side and management side fresher
are given training by the senior members some time higher professionals, if they found
necessary. Time period for training of new entrants is generally 7 to 10 days.

125
4.3.12 How training needs are identified for existing employees?

• Training: Training is important aspect for developing a specific skills not only for the
workers, but also for the employees or management members too.
• We will see now how Dhanhar Products LLP is identifying the training needs and how
they will fulfil it.
1. When the wastages of some section increase, than the prescribed limit then they
identify the worker from the document they have and if required, they offer training
mostly from senior people.
2. When the work of some document slow down then they will try to find out the reason
behind it (reasons may faulty method of working, workers laziness, worker. inefficiency
etc.) and give training properly if needed.
3. Now coming on to the management employee, if management employee found that
managerial worker is not working efficiently. Then management try to solve this
problem by giving required training and sometimes even that person will ask the
management that he went such and such training for the development of his skills. For
e.g. that if purchase manager of Dhanhar Products LLP, is not able to negotiate price
with the supplier effectively and purchasing products at higher prices. So the
management will hire a professional for developing his negotiation skills or they will
send him to search type of training programs or seminars etc.

So, this way training needs are identified and solved by Dhanhar Products LLP which can be
summarized as following:-

• As know by everyone, employee are the most valuable assets of the company and they
works in a group and where there is a group, these comes communication interaction

the relation between the management (employer) and worker (employee). But if see it
is in broader aspect, it protects the interests of both employees and employers by
making some rules and policies etc.
• So, we will see, as usual, in the context of Dhanhar Products LLP seeing the Fantastic
relationship between the management and employees. We think that it might not be
true, so we will like to give you one e.g. which we have observed, in factory premises.
There was water tank, and management person just taken the glass. of water and when
worker from production department came, the first give a glass of water to the worker
and put one's arm on his shoulder. This is the only one example we have discussed so
we can say that from this discussion that management people are very cordial in dealing
with workers.
• Another reason for the excellent relationship can be attributed to the background of the
workers. As being from some religion, there is very less conflict among them. Most of
the workers at here are from 'Patel' community and basically from same society so they
better understand each other's need.
• Thus, the entire staffs of this company are very co-operative with each other like family
member.
