UNIQUE SELLING PROPOSITION

Page 10: STRATEGIC BUSINESS (Autosaved).docx

UNIQUE SELLING PROPOSITION :

UNIQUE SELLING PROPOSITION:

The key to effective selling in this situation is what advertising and marketing professionals call a "unique selling proposition" (USP). Unless you can pinpoint what makes your business unique in a world of homogeneous competitors, you cannot target your sales efforts successfully.

Pinpointing your USP requires some hard soul-searching and creativity. One way to start is to analyze how other companies use their USPs to their advantage. This requires careful analysis of other companies' ads and marketing messages. If you analyze what they say they sell, not just their product or service characteristics, you can learn a great deal about how companies distinguish themselves from competitors..

The Company that has found a USP on which to hang its marketing strategy. A business can peg its USP on product characteristics, price structure, placement strategy (location and distribution) or promotional strategy. These are what marketers call the "four P's" of marketing. They are manipulated to give a business a market position that sets it apart from the competition.

Our USPs which has made us a force in Indian Steel Industry is:

State-of-the-Art-Technology. Close Tolerances. Ability to produce customer specific products. Wide Manufacturing range. Bio Friendly packaging.

QUALITY POLICY AND STANDARS

Page 12: STRATEGIC BUSINESS (Autosaved).docx

QUALITY POLICY AND STANDARDS:

Quality control, or QC for short, is a process by which entities review the quality of all factors involved in production. This approach places an emphasis on three aspects.

1. Elements such as controls, job management, defined and well managed processes, performance and integrity criteria, and identification of records

2. Competence, such as knowledge, skills, experience, and qualifications3. Soft elements, such as personnel integrity, confidence, organizational culture,

motivation, team spirit, and quality relationships.

Controls include product inspection, where every product is examined visually, and often using a stereo microscope for fine detail before the product is sold into the external market. Inspectors will be provided with lists and descriptions of unacceptable product defects such as cracks or surface blemishes for example.

The quality of the outputs is at risk if any of these three aspects is deficient in any way.

Quality control emphasizes testing of products to uncover defects and reporting to management who make the decision to allow or deny product release, whereas quality assurance attempts to improve and stabilize production (and associated processes) to avoid, or at least minimize, issues which led to the defect(s) in the first place. For contract work, particularly work awarded by government agencies, quality control issues are among the top reasons for not renewing a contract.

Total quality control

"Total quality control", also called total quality management, is an approach that extends beyond ordinary statistical quality control techniques and quality improvement methods. It implies a complete overview and re-evaluation of the specification of a product, rather than just considering a more limited set of changeable features within an existing product. If the original specification does not reflect the correct quality requirements, quality cannot be inspected or manufactured into the product. For instance, the design of a pressure vessel should include not only the material and dimensions, but also

Page 13: STRATEGIC BUSINESS (Autosaved).docx

operating, environmental, safety, reliability and maintainability requirements, and documentation of findings about these requirements.

Quality control in project management

In project management, quality control requires the project manager and the project team to inspect the accomplished work to ensure its alignment with the project scope. In practice, projects typically have a dedicated quality control team which focuses on this area.

We at BFTL are committed to achieve customer delight by performing each Task Defect Free First Time, Every Time And On Time Through Team Work And Continual Improvement In Each And Every Process Of The Organization.

We the, Bhandari fraternity, are committed to the establishment of an effective Quality Management System to achieve this policy.

The Quality Policy has been framed by the Apex Management Committee (AMC) with active participation and feedback from various forums of employees which is reviewed on proactive basis for appropriateness to the existing business of ours.

For us THE CUSTOMER COMES FIRST. This realization guides us in the matters related to quality, as we understand that the route to a delighted customer is cutting edge quality. We use state of the art manufacturing facilities, management practices and quality assurance practices to bring out that cutting edge quality in our products. We work hard to retain our experienced and well trained staff and use modern tools/methods of motivation to keep them motivated at Bhandari because we recognize quality's human angle

ETHICAL VALUES

ETHICAL VALUES:

Page 18: STRATEGIC BUSINESS (Autosaved).docx

Ethical Values for Business Success

Ethics is based on a set of moral and ethical values. These values must be absolute - that is, you must take them seriously enough to override any human rationalization, weakness, ego, or personal faults. When all else fails, you will always look back to these core values to guide you. Unfortunately, life is not that easy and there's always disagreement about what values should reign supreme.

Luckily, in the world of business ethics, your employer helps you. In a nutshell, their values are your values (in the context of work). Your freedom to choose your own ethical values is somewhat limited. Considering the rash of corporate scandals these days, the thought of following the corporation's values might not be too comforting. Problem: Whose or what values can you trust?

Look behind successful, honest businesses and you will see a set of values that have stood the test of time. Think about how these values are communicated in your organization and what you can do to support them.

Honesty

The old adage, "honesty is the best policy" is true today more than ever. It's not just lip service. Employee manuals from most scandalized corporations are likely to contain slogans touting its commitment to honesty. Claiming to be honest in an employee manual is passé. You're either honest or not. Even if you haven't got caught yet, most people know who is and who isn't.

Integrity

Integrity connotes strength and stability. It means taking the high road by practicing the highest ethical standards. Demonstrating integrity shows completeness and soundness in your character and in your organization.

Responsibility

Blaming others, claiming victimhood, or passing the buck may solve short-term crises, but refusal to take responsibility erodes respect and cohesion in an organization. Ethical people take responsibility for their actions. Likewise, actions show the ability to be responsible both in the little and big things.

Page 19: STRATEGIC BUSINESS (Autosaved).docx

Social Responsibility:

As an organization we are conscious of our Social Responsibilities. We are aware of the fact that people devote a large part of their productive life with us and also that we take many resources from the society/ external environment to keep us moving. We will leave no stone unturned in repaying our debt to the society/ humankind. Realizing our duty, we are involved in many social causes.

Running a philanthropic hospital for poor. Taking utmost care of the environment around us. Planting of tree saplings in wastelands. Organizing awareness among people for small family, literacy and safe & healthy

working environment.

A Management Institute is also being established and will offer high quality education to the young students of Madhya Pradesh.

Quality

Quality should be more than making the best product, but should extend to every aspect of your work. A person who recognizes quality and strives for it daily has a profound sense of self-respect, pride in accomplishment, and attentiveness that affects everything. From your memos to your presentations, everything you touch should communicate professionalism and quality.

We at BFTL are committed to achieve customer delight by performing each Task Defect Free First Time, Every Time And On Time Through Team Work And Continual Improvement In Each And Every Process Of The Organization.

We the, Bhandari fraternity, are committed to the establishment of an effective Quality Management System to achieve this policy.

The Quality Policy has been framed by the Apex Management Committee (AMC) with active participation and feedback from various forums of employees which is reviewed on proactive basis for appropriateness to the existing business of ours.

Trust

Page 20: STRATEGIC BUSINESS (Autosaved).docx

There's no free ride. Trust is hard to earn and even harder to get back after you've lost it. Everyone who comes in contact with you or your company must have trust and confidence in how you do business.

BFTL has also created a separate team for continuous Product Development on usage of Stainless Steel. It is the only organization in the country, which can produce multiple products in Stainless Steel and also has the capability to develop products in a short gestation with a competitive edge.

Respect

Respect is more than a feeling, but a demonstration of honor, value, and reverence for something or someone. We respect the laws, the people we work with, the company and its assets, and ourselves.

Today the Bhandari Group holds an important market position due to its timely delivery schedules, competitive prices and developments in quality assurance, research, human resource and development systems.

Teamwork

Two or more employees together make a team. It is a business necessity to work openly and supportively in teams whether formal or informal.

Leadership

How many hardworking, honest employees have been tainted and led astray by corporate leadership failings? Managers and executives should uphold the ethical standards for the entire organization. A leader is out front providing an example that others will follow.

Corporate Citizenship

Page 21: STRATEGIC BUSINESS (Autosaved).docx

A foundational principle for every company should be to provide a safe workplace, to protect the environment, and to become good citizens in the community.

Shareholder Value

Without profitability, there is no company. Every employee should understand how he or she fits into the profitability picture. Everyone's common goal should be to build a strong, profitable company that will last.

The real test of these values comes from the resulting action. It takes a concerted, company-wide effort, beyond inserting these words in an employee manual, to make it happen.

First, management must lead by example. Good ethics should be most noticeable at the top. Every employee must be accountable to the same rules.

Second, a corporate values or ethics initiative must be "sold" and "marketed" aggressively throughout a company. Every forum and medium should be used to spread the good message. Of course, it will only be credible if the company is practicing what it preaches.

Third, training must be provided to get everyone on the same page. It's easy to ignore a motivational speech or pass by a poster, but spending time learning about the issues will have a lasting impact.

Fourth, both you and the company must be in it for the long haul. The ethics fervor should extend to the next generation of employees. The longer it lasts, the more ingrained the principles will become.

Despite failings of some, there is plenty of room at the table for good ethics and profitable business to reside. Together they can lay the cornerstone for a secure and prosperous society. These ten values you can put in the employee manual and mean it.

SEAMLESS TUBE:

The metal, lead, tin or, more often, aluminum tube, has been around since 1841. As a testimony to its versatility and resilience, it is now packaged throughout the world with production in excess of a half billion pieces per year in the United States alone.

The manufacture of aluminum tubes starts with an aluminum slug or blank, as it is called. It is fed into a set of tools in the die which then extrude it. This extrusion press then roughly forms a completed tube form. Once this extrusion process takes place, the aluminum becomes work hardened.

The next step is to trim the tube to the specified length on both the top and bottom ends. At this point, the tube is threaded

which enables us to screw on the cap. During extrusion, aluminum becomes work hardened so during the next step, it is passed through a process which makes the metal malleable. This is done at about 460 degrees centigrade.

The next step, which is used primarily in the pharmaceutical industry, is the spray application of an internal lining. This acts as barrier protection for metal sensitive products between the exposed aluminum and the pharmaceutical, or other product, to be packaged.

If the tube is not internally coated, it will bypass the internal lining step and go to the next step which is the coater rolling of a base coat onto the tube. This coat prepares the tube for the application of offset printing. The base coat is then cured and brought back to a printing machine which puts on the customer's specified colors and copy. You can see all these tubes detailed for the different customers who require different types of decoration.

Tubes for some products require a fold sealant that acts as a barrier to prevent product seepage from the fold end of the tube. The final step in the production of aluminum tubes is the capping operation. And, again, customers generally dictate the types of styles and caps that they like. Primarily, four different materials -- polypropylene, and high, medium, and low density polyethylene -- are used as cap material.

The tubes are then checked, packed in boxes, inspected and loaded either into cartons or on skids for final shipment to the customer.

Page 24: STRATEGIC BUSINESS (Autosaved).docx

Metal Tube Advantages

The metal tube is air tight and impermeable and has "no suckback." These properties give superior protection to contents, keeping them fresh and uncontaminated through long periods of intermittent use. Internal linings applied to the metal give it added compatibility for products that are highly alkaline or acidic. The metal tube is the only one of the three tube types that is seamless.

Innovation

Innovation can be a catalyst to the growth and success of your business. New and innovative ideas can help you create dynamic products or improve your existing services. Innovation can also help your business adapt and expand in the marketplace.

Develop new ideas:

There are a number of steps involved in developing your new ideas and products. It's important to research, design and test your ideas carefully to determine whether they are useful to your growing business.

Invest in research and development:

Page 30: STRATEGIC BUSINESS (Autosaved).docx

Research and development can be used to enhance the productivity of your business. Grants, tax concessions and other funding programs are available to assist investment in R&D so you can develop your ideas.

Protect your intellectual property (IP):

You should ensure your innovations are protected from unlawful use by others. IP represents the property of your mind or intellect. In business terms, this also means your proprietary knowledge.

Expanding business in online

One way your business can expand locally and overseas is through the use of information and communication technologies (ICT). Doing business online can also help improve your internal processes, making you more efficient.

Doing business online;

An online business or simply selling your products or services online can help you reach a much wider customer base. An online shop front can also help you tie your online presence with your sales system.

Laws and regulation for online shop fronts:

Even if your business solely operates through a website, you still need to follow the same laws and regulations as if you were operating from a physical shop front. There are also additional regulations like spam laws that may apply to your online business.

Trade practices laws:

You need to comply with the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (formerly known as the Trade Practices Act 1974) when you conduct transactions with your customers or publish business and product information online.

Electronic record keeping:

You may want to consider using electronic record keeping tools to continue to fulfil your record keeping obligations for tax purposes. Utilizing online resources can help save you time and improve your record keeping accuracy.

Page 31: STRATEGIC BUSINESS (Autosaved).docx

Tenders And Contracts

Expanding your business may mean you can access greater opportunities to do business with government. There are a number of government tender opportunities available across India.

You may also want to consider whether collective bargaining is an option for you. Collective bargaining is an arrangement under which two or more competitors in an industry come together to negotiate terms and conditions (which can include price) with a supplier or a customer

Environmental management practices:

Managing your impact on the environment and complying with your legal responsibilities ensures your growing business is competitive, environmentally friendly and able to realise possible financial benefits.

Environmental management plans

Incorporating environmental management strategies into your existing business plan or developing an environmental management plan can help you introduce effective 'green' practices in your business. As part of your planning, you can perform an environmental audit to help you assess which areas of your business impact on the environment, and to what extent. An environmental management system can also help you manage your impacts by integrating environmental management into your daily operations.

Minimize your impact

Using sustainable resources and employing proper recycling and waste reduction measures can not only have a positive effect on the environment, but can also improve your profitability and your reputation with customers. 

Environmental licenses

Page 32: STRATEGIC BUSINESS (Autosaved).docx

To ensure your business and the environment is protected, you need to know if your business activities fall under environmental legislation and licensing.

Australian, state and territory environment legislation applies to certain business activities and is administered by both state and local governments in the form of licences and permits.

Environmental standards and labeling requirements

Certain goods or appliances manufactured or imported into Australia may need to comply with environmental standards before they can be sold. Each standard sets out a rating and labelling system to inform consumers on how efficiently a product uses an environmental resource, and has the added benefit of promoting suppliers with high rating products.

Environmental reporting obligations

Before you can reduce your impact on the environment, you need to know which areas of your business are causing the most impact. Some common reports that can help you measure your impact include greenhouse and energy reporting, corporate sustainability reporting or triple bottom line reporting, and natural resource management monitoring.

For most businesses, environmental reporting is voluntary but there are some mandatory industry reporting requirements that may apply to your business.

Employment for peoples

Good employees can be your greatest asset, so recruiting and retaining the right people is very important to your business success.

Your employees create value and can generate a return on investment for your business. For this to happen however, both the needs of the business and the individual need to be met. This requires an understanding of the legal obligations for you and your employees, along with ways to maximize the skills of your workforce.

Whether you are new to business or have a number of staff working for you, the following are important areas to consider when employing and managing your staff:

Hiring people o Recruitment

Page 33: STRATEGIC BUSINESS (Autosaved).docx

o Employment types o Hiring apprentices & trainees o Hiring people from overseas o Equal employment opportunity & anti-discrimination o Incentives & support

Employer obligations o Legal obligations o Record keeping o Staff health & safety o Insurance o Paid Parental Leave o Taxation and superannuation obligations

An opportunity is any favourable situation in the organisation's environment. It is usually a trend or change of some kind or an overlooked need that increases demand for a product or service and permits the firm to enhance its position by supplying it.

Gold Sponsors - Bhandari Foils & Tubes Ltd

A threat is any unfavourable situation in the organisation's environment that is potentially damaging to its strategy. The threat may be a barrier, a constraint, or anything external that might cause problems, damage or injury.

In general, an effective strategy is one that takes advantage of the organisation's opportunities by employing its strengths and wards off threats by avoiding them or by correcting or compensating for weaknesses.

The first part of any SWOT analysis is to collect a set of key facts about the organisation and its environment. This will include facts about the organisation's markets, competition, financial resources, facilities, employees, inventories, marketing and distribution system, R&D;, management, environmental setting (e.g. Technological, political, social, and economic trends), history and reputation.

The second part of a SWOT analysis is to evaluate data to determine whether they constitute strengths, weaknesses, opportunities or threats for the organisation. This may be done independently by the individuals in a group, results being compared afterwards. It is important to note that any given fact may give rise to more than one evaluation, and so to ask - " How may this fact be considered as an opportunity as well as a threat?"; "How may this apparent strength turn out to be a weakness?"; "How does this weakness really represent a strength?" The answers to these and similar questions may give managers new insights into choosing appropriate strategies.

FOILS:

Foils are manufactured by using the laminate feed stock that is simply a poly-foil-poly structure that has polyethylene on either side of a thin gauge of foil. Some Foils structures also incorporate paper. A subset of laminate is Polyfoil. The most popular way of decorating the Foils feedstock material is by either letterpress or rotogravure printing. Rotogravure printing is used extensively to provide a high quality print buried within the Foils structure. Letterpress printing is used to decorate the surface of the laminate feedstock just prior to tubing that is ideal for added flexibility or smaller quantities.

The Foils are formed by placing the rolls of Foils material onto the needles of the machine. The material is then taken in a flat state and fed through the forming rolls, which very gently turn the tube and form it into a cylinder of variable size depending on

Page 42: STRATEGIC BUSINESS (Autosaved).docx

the customer's needs. Heat generated by high frequency fuses the sides of the material together to form a solid cylindrical tube. After the tube has been formed, it goes to the cutting station that slices it into various lengths.

After the tube has been formed into the desired cylindrical shape and length, the tube is transferred to the heading operation. As with plastic tubes, several heading methodologies are available. One particular method uses a preformed head. The tube is then placed onto a mandrel; the preformed head and shoulder are fed down vibrator shoots and fused to the top of the tube by means of heat generated by high frequency energy. Other methodologies apply the head to the sleeve in a similar manner to plastic tubes - either by injection or compression molding whereby heat fuses the head to the tube body.

After the complete tube has been formed, it goes to the capping station. The cap -- flat style, fez style or pedestal style -- is chosen based on the customer's needs. The cap is applied and torqued to the desired torquing requirements. The tube is then ejected onto a conveyor and taken to a packing operation where it is packed into a carton and is ready for the customer.

Foils Advantages

Foils offer a form of tube material with the advantages of plastic but with barrier properties close to those of metal. Foils have a good "feel" and maintain their attractiveness throughout the life of their contents. The first Foils were used primarily to package high-volume products like toothpaste, but now are used for many other products ranging from denture adhesives and artists' paints to hair-care products and pharmaceuticals. A subset of laminate is Polyfoil.

SEAMLESS TUBE:

The metal, lead, tin or, more often, aluminum tube, has been around since 1841. As a testimony to its versatility and resilience, it is now packaged throughout the world with production in excess of a half billion pieces per year in the United States alone.

The manufacture of aluminum tubes starts with an aluminum slug or blank, as it is called. It is fed into a set of tools in the die which then extrude it. This extrusion press then roughly forms a completed tube form. Once this extrusion process takes place, the aluminum becomes work hardened.

The next step is to trim the tube to the specified length on both the top and bottom ends. At this point, the tube is threaded

which enables us to screw on the cap. During extrusion, aluminum becomes work hardened so during the next step, it is passed through a process which makes the metal malleable. This is done at about 460 degrees centigrade.

The next step, which is used primarily in the pharmaceutical industry, is the spray application of an internal lining. This acts as barrier protection for metal sensitive products between the exposed aluminum and the pharmaceutical, or other product, to be packaged.

If the tube is not internally coated, it will bypass the internal lining step and go to the next step which is the coater rolling of a base coat onto the tube. This coat prepares the tube for the application of offset printing. The base coat is then cured and brought back to a printing machine which puts on the customer's specified colors and copy. You can see all these tubes detailed for the different customers who require different types of decoration.

Tubes for some products require a fold sealant that acts as a barrier to prevent product seepage from the fold end of the tube. The final step in the production of aluminum tubes is the capping operation. And, again, customers generally dictate the types of styles and caps that they like. Primarily, four different materials -- polypropylene, and high, medium, and low density polyethylene -- are used as cap material.

The tubes are then checked, packed in boxes, inspected and loaded either into cartons or on skids for final shipment to the customer.

Metal Tube Advantages

The metal tube is air tight and impermeable and has "no suckback." These properties give superior protection to contents, keeping them fresh and uncontaminated through long periods of intermittent use. Internal linings applied to the metal give it added

Page 46: STRATEGIC BUSINESS (Autosaved).docx

compatibility for products that are highly alkaline or acidic. The metal tube is the only one of the three tube types that is seamless.
