GRAIN SPIRIT PLANT

GSP department is headed by VP Mr. Devendra Singh, assisted by Mr.Rajiv

Ralhan (Sr.Mgr.-prod.), Mr. Satish Kumar (Asst.Mgr – prod.) Mr. Satendra Panwar

( Manager-Botling & Prodn.)

In grain spirit plant the basic raw material is grains. Grains that are having the

starch are first converted into sugar then alcohol is produced by it.

44

Page 45: Summer training   sales & logistics (1)

Alcohol produced by grains is of higher quality than the one which is produced by

molasses. The alcohol produced here is exported.

In the process, the grains are first grinded and the powder so obtained is mixed with

water, which forms slurry. This slurry is then put into the cooker for cooking where

the steam is passed at the rate of 8kg/cm square at 190 degree centigrade.

Now it is transferred in liquification tank where the temperature is maintained at

90 degree centigrade and the yeast (alpha-amylase) is added. Here we get dextrin.

Dextrin so obtained is transferred into saccrification tank where the yeast

(amyloglucoside) is added. This saccrified slurry is put for fermentation with baker

yeast and leave for about 50 hrs. Hence we get alcohol of 8 – 9 %.

Again the 8-9% alcohol obtained is put into amalyser added with steam and we get

45-50% of alcohol

.

CONCEPT OF LOGISTICS ARRANGEMENTS

Logistics is the management of the flow of goods, information and other resources, including

energy and people, between the point of origin and the point of consumption in order to meet

the requirements of consumers (frequently, and originally, military organizations). Logistics

involve the integration of information, transportation, inventory, warehousing, material-

handling, and packaging.

The term "logistics" originates from the ancient Greek "λόγος" ("logos"—"ratio, word,

calculation, reason, speech, oration").

The logistics chain includes the owners (wholesalers & retailers), manufacturers, agents &

transportation channels, which an item passes through between initial manufacture & final

purchase by a consumer. At each stage, goods belong (as assets) to the seller until the buyer

accepts them.

Logistics management:

Logistics management is that part of the supply chain which plans, implements and controls

the efficient, effective forward and reverse flow and storage of goods, services and related

information between the point of origin and the point of consumption in order to meet

47

Page 48: Summer training   sales & logistics (1)

customers' requirements. A professional working in the field of logistics management is

called a logistician.

Business logistics:

Logistics as a business concept evolved only in the 1950s. This was mainly due to the

increasing complexity of supplying one's business with materials and shipping out products in

an increasingly globalized supply chain, calling for experts in the field who are called Supply

Chain Logisticians. This can be defined as having the right item in the right quantity at the

right time at the right place for the right price and is the science of process and incorporates

all industry sectors. The goal of logistics work is to manage the fruition of project life cycles,

supply chains and resultant efficiencies.

In business, logistics may have either internal focus (inbound logistics), or external focus

(outbound logistics) covering the flow and storage of materials from point of origin to point of

consumption (see supply chain management). The main functions of a qualified logistician

include inventory management, purchasing, transportation, warehousing, consultation and the

organizing and planning of these activities. Logisticians combine a professional knowledge of

each of these functions so that there is a coordination of resources in an organization. There

are two fundamentally different forms of logistics. One optimizes a steady flow of material

through a network of transport links and storage nodes. The other coordinates a sequence of

resources to carry out some project.

Production logistics:

The term is used for describing logistics processes within an industry. The purpose of

production logistics is to ensure that each machine and workstation is being fed with the right

product in the right quantity and quality at the right point in time.

The issue is not the transportation itself, but to streamline and control the flow through the

value adding processes and eliminates non-value adding ones. Production logistics can be

applied in existing as well as new plants. Manufacturing in an existing plant is a constantly

48

Page 49: Summer training   sales & logistics (1)

changing process. Machines are exchanged and new ones added, which gives the opportunity

to improve the production logistics system accordingly. Production logistics provides the

means to achieve customer response and capital efficiency.

Production logistics is getting more and more important with the decreasing batch sizes. In

many industries (e.g. mobile phone) batch size one is the short term aim. This way, even a

single customer demand can be fulfilled in an efficient way. Track and tracing, which is an

essential part of production logistics - due to product safety and product reliability issues - is

also gaining importance especially in the automotive and the medical industry.

CONCEPT OF SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT

Supply chain management (SCM) is the process of planning, implementing and controlling

the operations of the supply chain as efficiently as possible. Supply Chain Management spans

all movement and storage of raw materials, work-in-process inventory, and finished goods

from point-of-origin to point-of-consumption.

The definition of Supply Chain Management encompasses the planning and management of

all activities involved in sourcing, procurement, conversion, and logistics management

activities. Importantly, it also includes coordination and collaboration with channel partners,

which can be suppliers, intermediaries, third-party service providers, and customers. In

essence, Supply Chain Management integrates supply and demand management within and

across companies. More recently, the loosely coupled, self-organizing network of businesses

that cooperates to provide product and service offerings has been called the Extended

Enterprise.

Supply chain management must address the following problems:

49

Page 50: Summer training   sales & logistics (1)

Distribution Network Configuration: Number, location and network missions of

suppliers, production facilities, distribution centers, warehouses, cross-docks and

customers.

Distribution Strategy: Including questions of operating control (centralized,

decentralized or shared); delivery scheme (e.g., direct shipment, pool point shipping,

Cross docking, DSD (direct store delivery), closed loop shipping); mode of

transportation (e.g., motor carrier, including truckload, LTL, parcel; railroad;

intermodal, including TOFC and COFC; ocean freight; airfreight); replenishment

strategy (e.g., pull, push or hybrid); and transportation control (e.g., owner-operated,

private carrier, common carrier, contract carrier, or 3PL).

Information: Integration of and other processes through the supply chain to share

valuable information, including demand signals, forecasts, inventory, transportation,

and potential collaboration etc.

Inventory Management: Quantity and location of inventory including raw materials,

work-in-process and finished goods.

Cash-Flow: Arranging the payment terms and the methodologies for exchanging funds

across entities within the supply chain.

Supply chain execution is managing and coordinating the movement of materials, information

and funds across the supply chain. The flow is bi-directional.

Activities/functions

Supply chain management is a cross-functional approach to managing the movement of raw

materials into an organization, certain aspects of the internal processing of materials into

finished goods, and then the movement of finished goods out of the organization toward the

end-consumer. As organizations strive to focus on core competencies and becoming more

flexible, they have reduced their ownership of raw materials sources and distribution

channels. These functions are increasingly being outsourced to other entities that can perform

the activities better or more cost effectively. The effect is to increase the number of

organizations involved in satisfying customer demand, while reducing management control of

daily logistics operations. Less control and more supply chain partners led to the creation of

50

Page 51: Summer training   sales & logistics (1)

supply chain management concepts. The purpose of supply chain management is to improve

trust and collaboration among supply chain partners, thus improving inventory visibility and

improving inventory velocity.

The management components of SCM (Supply Chain Management)

The SCM components are the third element of the four-square circulation framework. The

level of integration and management of a business process link is a function of the number

and level, ranging from low to high, of components added to the link (Ellram and Cooper,

1990; Houlihan, 1985). Consequently, adding more management components or increasing

the level of each component can increase the level of integration of the business process link.

The literature on business process reengineering, buyer-supplier relationships and SCM

suggests various possible components that must receive managerial attention when managing

supply relationships. Lambert and Cooper (2000) identified the following components which

are:

Planning and control

Work structure

Organization structure

Product flow facility structure

Information flow facility structure

Management methods

Power and leadership structure

Risk and reward structure

Culture and attitude

Reverse Supply Chain Reverse Logistics is the process of planning, implementing and

controlling the efficient, effective in bound flow and storage of secondary goods and related

information opposite to the traditional supply chain direction for the purpose of recovering

value or proper disposal. Reverse logistics is also referred to as "Aftermarket Customer

51

Page 52: Summer training   sales & logistics (1)

Services". In other words, anytime money is taken from a company's Warranty Reserve or

Service Logistics budget that is a Reverse Logistics operation.

LOGISTICS SERVICES:

Market Logistics

Physical distribution starts at the factory. Managers choose a set of warehouses (stocking

points) and transportation carriers that will deliver the goods to final destinations in the

desired time or at the lowest total cost. Physical distribution has now been expanded into the

broader concept of supply chain management (SCM). Supply chain management starts

before physical distribution: It involves procuring the right inputs (raw materials, components,

and capital equipment); converting them efficiently into finished products; and dispatching

them to the final destinations. The supply chain perspective can help a company identify

superior suppliers and distributors and help them improve productivity, which ultimately

brings down the company’s costs.

Mission of the Department

To make all Logistic arrangements with full compliance of law and procedures including

quality standards as laid down from time to time and to ensure full satisfaction of all

customers both internal with safe delivery.

Observations

Company is already maintaining the JIT (Just in time) delivery system with various

transportation arrangements. However due to resource constraints in transport

arrangements and other local hassle of road conditions. It is being met

with little higher cost.

Market requirement and original equipment requirement do fluctuate due to

there own reasons like production fluctuation, change in dispatch schedule. Due

to which the logistic arrangements are required for frequent review and arrangements.

The order schedule is given by the head office (Delhi). Due to some urgent order or

some specific requirements the dispatches are delayed.

Some time the consumption and a production cycle is not matched.

Unconditional warranty is favorable & convincing to the customer.

Dealers have active communication with RADICO management.

Replacement policy of RAMPUR PLANT is convincing to dealers.

Suggestions

57

Page 58: Summer training   sales & logistics (1)

The company should give some special offers or discounts to the dealers which could

increase the sales of RADICO in the region, as dealers were found to have high

convincing power which could influence the buyer.

To avoid delay in dispatch RADICO RAMPUR plant should have provisions to fulfill

urgent & special requirements.

The company should take some efforts to make effective transportation arrangements.

Because it affect production pricing, on-time delivery performance and customer

satisfaction.

The company should centralized inventory in one place and use fast transportation to

fulfill orders. It reduces warehousing and inventory duplication cost.

The company should shorten the order-to-payment cycle i.e. elapsed time between

order’s receipt, delivery and payment.

The company should manage effective logistics information management because it

helps to link channel partners and share information to make better logistics decisions.

Information flows such as customer’s orders, billing, inventories labels and customer

data are closely linked with channel performance.
