ASSUMPTION ABOUT THE MARKETING PLAN

What is marketing plan:

Marketing plan is systematic anticipation and analysis of future changes coupled with the methodology for adapting to such changes. Methodology that will allow the industrial marketing manager to capitalise on the changes in order to meet objective and goals of the company and to gain an edge over competition. It take care of all the lapses of a marketing manager and also highlight the weakness of the company that should be removed for meeting the ultimate objective of the company i.e. profitability through customer satisfaction.

Need for Marketing Planning:

The marketing planning seeks to ensure perpetuity growth and continued profitability to a company through devising a suitable business portfolio and helping maintain a proper balance between short and long range objectives. It augments the health and image of a company through proper investment in business opportunities as well as in various resources. The absolute necessity ofmarketing plan becomes more conspicuous in its absence than in its presence.

As without such a plan:

a. The marketing manager losses control over the future of the firm. He has no ability to react in a logical and well-reasoned manner.

b. The manager inevitably ends up managing by crisis rather than by design.

c. The marketing manager is forced to remain on the defence with marketing decisions to counteract the well timed well offensive thrust of competition.

STRATEGIES / ACTION PLAN:

· BPCL have already initiated action for attainment of ISO 9000 certification.

· BPCL is already registered with process consultants and various exports houses. We are receiving enquiries from EEPC, Mohan Exports and PEC etc.

· As agents are the main contacts with the ultimate customers, we are also looking for appointing some agents of repute in foreign countries.

· To participate in international trade fairs which are held in India & abroad.

· Contacting ultimate customers and mailing our product leaflet and brochures to them.

· Improve the level of customer satisfaction be mail questionnaires and personaldiscussion. Organising camps at various sites for a limited period listening to customer’s problems, resolving them and providing technical guidance.

· Presentation to customers / consultants before project sets date through audiovisual presentation slides / films.

· Tie ups with turnkey contractors.

· Scanning and circulation of tender notices advertised in newspapers, Government bulletin.

TYPES OF PLANS

Mission:

The mission indicates primary beliefs and bedrock objectives, the central purpose of the business. The mission indicates precise answers to certain basic.

Questions:

· What is our business?

· What will our business be?

· What should be our business?

· Who is our customer?

· What does he buy?

· What does he expect from the product?

· What does he look for when he buy our product?

· Why should consumer citizen tolerate our existence? And so on.

If you have correct answers to these questions you can define your mission or line of business justifying its very survival.

Objectives:

Objectives are the aims and goals to be achieved by the enterprise. They point out where we want to go what is our end or destination. They provide direction for the enterprise efforts. They become the bench marks or standards for evaluation of efforts. The facilitate control. Planning is most successful when it is based upon clear-cut, attainable and verifiable objectives or goals. Please note that objectives prescribe ends, whereas strategy prescribed means to accomplish desirable ends.

Strategy:

R. Anthony has defined strategic “the process to deciding on objectives of the organisation on changes in these objectives and on the policies / strategies is a pattern of purposes and policies, which are unique to the firm”.

Strategies are action – oriented programmes in order to give the organisation a unified direction towards achieving the company mission, objective and goals. Strategic decision is planned course of action to achieve clearly objectives, in the face of limited resources, a changing environment and intelligent completion. The word strategy has competitive implication. Strategies are planned response to external changes e.g. changes in customer tastes and preferences, changes in production do distribution, changes are based upon basic mission and objectives, resources to be delayed and changing marking opportunities. Strategies can establish favourable relation between the firm and its environment.

Policies:

Policies are the principles and consequent rules of action of achieving specific organisation objective or goal.

Procedure:

Procedures are a series of functions or steps performed to achieve a specific task or understanding.

Programmes:

Programmes are a series of necessary activities and resources that are guided by the corporate objectives, plans and strategies.

Project:

A project is a scheme for investing resources, resources which can be analysed and evaluated separately. It is a work plan.

Schedule:

A schedule is a precise time table of a series of action. A vital part of a programme or project.

Budget:

A budget is a document indicating amount of resources to be committed to a specific purposes of an organisation. Sales budget, production budget, capital budget and so on.

Standards:A standard is a selected criterion against which actual results can be measured to evaluate performance. A standard is an integral part of control. There are four standards: quantity, quality, time and cost.

Method:

A method describes how each step of a procedure is to be performed. One best way is a standard method.

Rule:

A rule guides action but gives no discretion and demands strict obedience. Objectives indicate our ends or destination, policies point out what is intended; programmes, procedures, etc. describe how strategies and policies are being implemented. Standing plans ensure managerial efficiency, effective control and co-ordination. Moving from policies to rules, the standing plans become increasingly restrictive of management behaviour.

IMPORTANCE OF PLANNING

There are following importance of planning to Management of Business:

· Planning forces on the future direction, values and sense of purpose; basic objectives tell the direction of growth.

· Planning provides a unifying decision making framework and facilities integration of efforts.

Various companies are indulged in oil business so as to provide service and furnish their business. Companies indulged in oil business relates to:

- Oil Exploration

- Oil Refining

The geological section of oil exploration companies search for oil in the block section. For this purpose they require certain equipments for which they send an enquiry and pass the tender for the same.

Also oil refining companies while refining oil to extract different forms of oil from crude oil being provided by Oil Exploration Company, require certain equipment for which they also send an enquiry and pass the tender for the same. Some of their requiring equipments are manufactured at BPC, such as Reciprocating pumps, Centrifugal Pumps, Reciprocating Compressors, etc.

Enquiry is of two types:

- Budgetary

- Firm

In Budgetary enquiry the budget is estimated as to what is the competitive price and what is the price company can bear and how can company can add a new feature into the product to create its USP and still making it competitive in its market.

In firm enquiry the enquiry of firms are made that which are the companies who can provide the equipments meeting the standards, lower price(L1) and other required specifications.

TENDER:A tender is a list of required materials in a specific format as intended by the desired party. After the firm / company enquiry is being made by the company the tender is being raised or opened so as to invite those companies capable of meeting the specifications required by the company.

Provide excellent quality and services to core sector industries with a special thrust on oil and natural gas, petrochemicals, refinery, nuclear and thermal power, fertilisers and public transport sectors.

PROFILE OF BPCLFuelled By A Commitment For Excellence Incorporation:

· Till late 60s, the multinational companies dominated the petroleum sector in India. Since these industries were operating in the core sector, it was strategically decided by the government control. This led to the formation of Hindustan Petroleum Corporation, Bharat Petroleum Corporation and India Oil Corporation. For meeting the requirement of equipments as well as spare parts for the imported equipments installed in these companies, the Government of India decided to establish Bharat Pumps & Compressors Ltd. In 1970 under the Ministry of Heavy Industries and Public Enterprises.

· The companies registered office / works is located in Naini, Allahabad , U.P. It has branch / regional offices at Mumbai, Vadodara, Kolkata, Dibrugarh and New Delhi.

AREAS OF OPERATION· Bharat pumps and compressors ltd. situated in trans-yamuna area of allahabad is basically engaged in manufacturing of heavy duty pumps and compressors for oil exploration down stream projects such as Refineries, Petrochemicals etc. Other sectors served by the company are Fertiliser, Thermal Power, Hydro and Nuclear Power, Steel etc.

· The company has a high credibility for quality of its products and has acquired ISO 9001-2000, 14001 and OHSAS 18001 certification.

PROFIT AND GROWTH STRATEGIESPrior to liberalised economic policy, public sector enterprises has the benefits of prince & purchase preference (with no limit) in case of domestic bids and deemed export benefits in case of ICG bid with the increased competition from Private Sector cost into Indian Market. The following measures have to be adopted counter external threats and offset our weaknesses:

Creation of marketing cell:

· Marketing cells are fully responsible

· Marketing survey

· Data bank maintenance for market demand, business share, competitors data / activities.

· To find market strategies of competitors, their strengths and weakness.

· Collection of site reports and offensive marketing, their strengths and weakness.

· Submission and follow up of offers

· Arrangement of technical seminars for new projects

· Updating marketing plans

· Once the offer is matured into order, the file will be taken over by contract execution group.

Relooking into pricing policy:

· In view of very trough market conditions and world recession and low order book position.

· Order will be booked on marginal costing basis

· Review of pricing policy once order book position improves recovery overheads from spare parts.

Separate costing centres for different products:

Since machining facility and labour requirement are different for different products, separate costing centres shall be created so that to each product price is competitive to our competitors.

Preorder purchasing activities by marketing:

· To have competitive detailed offers for bought-outs & major casting / forging

· To have complete technical details of bought-outs before finalisation of order by the customer

· Sub-ordering time period will be reduced

· Sub vendors can offer discount as they will be a partner to out bids.

· Reduction in overall cost will be assured

Strengthening of branch office:

· For day to day dealings with customers and to have latest feedback on offers and competitor’s activities.

· To improve upon business relationship with customers and consultants.

Aggressive marketing:

· Frequent interactions with end users and consultants.

· Impress upon customers to recommend to turnkey for buying BPC made equipments only.

· Marketing intelligence reports and takes immediate action on it.

Service and spare parts:

· Prompt after sales services and supply of spare parts.

· Posting of service personnel at major business centres.

Taking up turnkey projects:

· Will help improve in order book position as well as financial position.

· Will also help to have more orders for as now most of the customers are going for turnkey jobs rather than having more vendors for different times.

NEW AREA DIVERSIFICATIONTechnology of BPC for the next three to five years essential covers the following products, which have been identified for the diversification and growth apart from technology upgradation of existing facilities and products on which brief note is attached.

1. Sucker rod pumping unit

2. Ring section pump

3. CNG compressors (Daughter Station)

(A) Sucker rod pumping unit

Production description:

Sucker rod pumping unit (SRPU) excluding subsurface items SRPU consists of Gear reducer, Counter balanced cranks, Walking beam, Semoson, Post base plate etc.

Application:

For pumping out crude oil from dead oil wells.

Customer:

Oil & Natural Gas Commission.

Competition:

Indigenous: new standard engineering, simplex engineering, and naveen

engineering etc.

Foreign: CMEC, China; industrial export import, Romania; shaunxi machinery &

equipment, China etc.

Market projection:

ONGC had project a market demand of 420 nos. valued at Rs. 42 crores for 8th plan period (1992-97). However inquiry for about 200 nos. had been alreadyfloat during one and half years considering the past inquiries and information from eastern and western regions of ONGC, the total requirement may go up to 600 nos.

Business projection:

BPC can expect a share approximately 20% i.e. orders worth Rs. 8 Crores out of Rs. 40 Crores provided we are able to quote competitive price. Italy, Chinese have been literally quoting dumping prices for SRP unit and BPC has lost orders against 3-4 inquiries of ONGC in a row. Our prices have been almost double of these quoted Chinese parties.

Technology:

Present Status:

Technology collaboration was earlier made by BPC for SRO units in 1984-85 with M/s. Industrial Export Import, Romania and design documents were obtained for 3 models only based on recommendations of ONGC. Supplies were made to ONGC in 1986-87 and after that ONGC didn’t make any purchases. After a gap of about seven years ONGC has again procurement of SRPU of different models for

which BPC does not have a design. Due to which BPC has not been able to secure orders as its prices were not very competitive. In view of this lamination it would not be necessary to make some kind of tie up with Chinese company. Whereby BPC might have to import the gear box unit, fabricate units and supply depending upon the pricing strategy that followed by LGMP and other Chinese manufacturers in future.

Action Plan:

An order to enter into some kind of tie-up or an understanding BPC contacted various reputed manufacturers of SRP units all over the world. However, BPC managed to get response from only three manufacturers:

o CMEC / LGMP, CHINA

o HPMIC / FPMMP, CHINA

o INDUSTRIAL EXPORT IMPORT, ROMANIA

Know how has demanded by M/s Industrial export import, Romania was high and not justified in relation to business expected proposals from China were comparatively reasonable and detailed discussions were held with both the parties of APC during their visit to India.

Subsequently, a delegation consisting of Mr. G.K. Balaava Ex-MD and Mr. S.N. Dwivedi chief (design) visited China in September’ 93 for finalisation of technical know how agreement. However, due to the insistence of CMEC / LGMP not to excusive sales right to be an concluded. The other Chinese party visited only by the chief (Design) i.e. HPMIC / FPMMP though having design and manufacturing set up cannot consider for the present as they expect to receive the same by December’ 93 BPC in touch with them.

In view of the above, BPC shall continue its efforts for a suitable tie-up with M/s HPMIC / FPMMP subject to their receiving. API certification, an effort will be made once again once again to contact other potential manufacturers in this regard. Recently a big success came across BPC an Iranian Company placed an order of 30 Reciprocating Pumps from BPC as International market boycotted to supply the energy equipments to Iran, therefore Iran looked towards India and found BPC most appropriate supplier, this opportunity will lead BPC to new heights and help it to become a Multinational Company.

Additional Resources:

Existing manufacturing facilities are adequate; however some balancing facilities shall be required in approximately Rs. 50 Lacks. Investment of Rs. 1.5 crores been proposed technical tie-up for know how.

(B) Ring section pump

Product description :

Ring section boiler pump.

Product specification:

Suitable for captive power plant upto 60 MW.

Application:

Pumping of voiker feed water crude oil and dewatering application in mines.

Customer:

Power plant of state electricity boards, captive power plant pf refineries, fertilisers plants and other process plants limited to 60 MW.

Competitors:

KSB / KBL / KEBL / MATHER & PLANT

Market projection:

Based on new captive power plants coming up a replacement of existing units, there is a market of Rs. 20 to 30 Crores per year.

Business projection:

BPC can expect a market share of 10% and this can give a business of approx. Rs. 2-3 crores per year.

Additional resources:

Existing manufacturing are adequate except some balancing facilities. Investment proposal Rs. 2.5 Crores has been planned mainly for acquiring technical know-ho and some balancing facilities.

(C) Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) Compressor (Daughter Station)

Product description:

CNG compressor for CNG refuelling daughter station

Application:

Transfer of CNG from cascade to cubicle cylinders.

Brief description:

High pressure multi-stage CNG compressor along with all accessories such as drive instrumentation, and control inter collar’s separators piping and cascade, etc. shall be installed in ISO container for supply as pack aged unit.

Customer:

GAIL, MRL, IBP etc.

Competitors:

Sulzer (India) Ltd. Nuova pig none Italy and Bauer Germans.

Mar ket and Business Projection:

Government is likely to give a lot of thrust to the usage of Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) as an alternative fuel government has made GAIL, MRL and IBP as nodal agencies to work out the projections were given by these agencies there will be demand of 900 nos. daughter stations and 100 no. mother stations as also corresponding no. of cylinders in the next 3 to 5 years. BPC is already in the field of compressors manufacturing and it is therefore only appropriate that BPC enter this area also in the good time. Based on the demand materialising as above, we could expect orders @ Rs. 5 Crores P.A. from 1996-97 onwards. We are only party to have supplied 3 nos. CNG Compressors for mother station of GAIL and the same of working satisfactorily. This has been achieved for the first time in the country with our in house R&D design and manufacturing.

Additional Resources:

Present manufacturing facilities are adequate. Investment of Rs. 3.50 Crores has been planted for acquiring technical know-how / tie-up etc.

EXPORTS

1. Objective:

Situation Government of India in its new industrial policy has great emphasis on exports in all spheres including engineering goods. In view of this BPCL should immediately explore possibilities for export and services.

The recent devaluation of rupees and the rupees convertibility will help BPCL to be more competitive. It is true that immediate returns will not accrue, but certainly it will help BPCL in the export business in the long run.Once we enter into export market handling of foreign turnkey bidders, will be easier and they will be attached towards BPCL automatically.

2. Scope for export:

Pumps and compressors are being manufactured with latest design and technology. Once quality and delivery is maintained entry into export market will not be difficult with little additional efforts. Export market exists for following products Centrifugal and Reciprocating pumps, Reciprocating Compressors, Gas Cylinders finished castings, components for pumps and compressors. Target market for above items exists in following countries Middle East and African countries such as Arabia, UAF, Iraq, Uganda, Philippines, Nigeria, Sudan, South East Asian Countries such as Romania, Russia etc. Neighbouring countries such as Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and Nepal etc.

3. Past performance:

(a) 10 numbers centrifugal pumps to Romania during 1984-85 of value Rs. 17 lacs

(b) 1500 nos. gas cylinders to Oman and Kuwait during 1970-80

(c) BPCL has executed an order for 12000 oxygen and 11000 DA cylinders. Valuing Rs. 1000 lacks for Algeria through Mhan Exports India Ltd.

CONCLUSIONIt is felt that the company is now better geared to manage its order execution cycle more satisfactorily orbit this assessment is based on an analysis of its currents order book log position. A security of its recent operational and financial performance a study of orientation related to order execution also due

consciences has been taken of the series of systematic improvement recentlyimplement by the company.

The systems are mostly in place though same process simplifications have to be carried out and certain procedural redundancies need to be remained. The company also need to make the interdepartment co-ordination and effective in addition BPCL must up completely responsible for intenal follow up as well as service as a single paint contact with the client.

SUGGESTIONIn the report we have seen the graph of order booking targets and sales turnover. In the graph of order booking we have seen that the order for our product is increasing year. It means that with the increase of order to target. We have efficiency of the organisation, we have to improve on certain points:

Cost efficiency:

To get the achievement of cost efficiency we have to keep certain points in our mind they are resale of scraps, inventory management, work distribution.

Profit generation:

In the SWOT analysis we have seen there is a great opportunity products, these can be turnkey for the company. The company should try to work on export.

They should lay more emphasis on export.

Improving technology:

There is no doubt that the product of company is notgood. But from time to time the regular improvement of the technology. It improves the quality of the product as well as save the time.

Becoming a global player:

With the last dealings we can conclude that the company had satisfy there maximum customers. After those dealings the company should try to get a good name in India as well as in international market.

Employee handling:

Generally we have seen that in the maximum government sectors there is lack of professionalism. It means that we have to make an environment of work in the company. The company should try to motivate the worker to become punctual and loyal for the company.

Product:

PRODUCTS MARKET SHARE

o Centrifugal Pumps 10%

o DA Cylinders 25%

o High Pressures Cylinders 10%

o Sucker Rod Pumping Unit 02%

o Reciprocating Compressors 25%

o Centrifugal Pumps 10%

In the given statistics we have seen the market share of the products. In the case of DA Cylinders and Reciprocating Pumps there is largest market share of BPC. It means we should concentrates on those products which have very low market shares.
