Make each country self-sufficient by finding suppliers within country

Use of standardized auto parts that could be manufactured at several locations Request suppliers to hold inventory enough to sustain production for few months, as a measure to tackle manufacturing problems

DO YOU SEE SUCH A SITUATION IN YOUR ORGANIZATION? HOW DO YOU PROPOSE TO DEAL WITH THIS?

Problem

Solution

A) Inventory Accumulation B) Largely dependent on third party agents for supply of raw materials (masalas) C) Unable to implement ERP app to synergise technology for order placement of raw materials

• Backward Integration

Problem
• Raw material is imported from Singapore • Warehousing Problem • In case raw material were sourced from India the cost would increase
