EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
“Tree cannot touch the skies, but certainly can have branches.” Varroc Group too
believes in this axiom, and has strong footholds in Polymer, Electrical, and Metallic
Divisions and exists in all important areas of Automobile sector.
Now, Varroc Group has ventured into the field of automotive components & sub
assemblies of 2, 3, and 4 wheeler in domestic and overseas market with an objective to
become the preferred quality supplier across the globe.
To survive and achieve success, any ventures need to understand the dynamics of
competition in their industries and develop skills and capabilities that give them a
competitive advantage. This is especially true among automotive industries. Customer do
not buy only products as such, they buy satisfaction, hence organization must be clear
about the satisfaction the customer is seeking and check out whether supplier is also
meeting the standard as per concern of quality, delivery & service provided so that proper
improvement is achieved throughout the supply chain.
This report is based on above mentioned problems i.e. quality standards of existing
suppliers. This report is broken down into four main parts, first its deals with the
introduction and the scope of the research, second explains the profile of the Varroc
Group followed by process or methodology adopted under the research methodology and
the review of literature and finally concluding by analyzing the collected data.
The work environment of Varroc group was absolutely encouraging and full of support.
During my training, on one hand I learned much about Varroc, their work culture, on
other hand I got the knowledge of supply chain management.

CONCEPTUAL BACKGROUND
1. Theoretical Background
2. Conceptual description
In the 21st century, changes in the business environment have contributed to the
development of supply chain networks. First, as an outcome of globalization and the
proliferation of multinational companies, joint ventures, strategic alliances and business
partnerships, there were found to be significant success factors, following the earlier
"Just-In-Time", "Lean Manufacturing" and Second, technological changes, particularly
the dramatic fall in information communication costs, which are a significant component
of transaction costs, have led to changes in coordination among the members of the
supply chain network.
The decisions for supply chain management are classified into two broad
categories - strategic and operational. As the term implies, strategic decisions are
made typically over a longer time horizon. These are closely linked to the corporate
strategy and guide supply chain policies from a design perspective. On the other hand,
operational decisions are short term, and focus on activities over a day-to-day basis. The
effort in these type of decisions is to effectively and efficiently manage the product flow
in the "strategically" planned supply chain.
There are four major decision areas in supply chain management
as: 1) location, 2) production, 3) inventory, and 4) transportation (distribution), and there
are both strategic and operational elements in each of these decision areas.
Vendor development can be seen as an attempt to get the advantages of both spreading
risk, building competition and at same time establishing a good rapport. Vendor
development involves helping or building up the vendor by various means such as:
3. Help in R&D, by again lending technical help to not only to establish the company,
but also to help improve its products and services on a continuous basis.
4. Lending money for part of his capital equipment, working capital requirements etc.
5. Working directly with Suppliers either through training or other activities etc.
6. AssessingeSuppliers'soperations.
1. 1. Credibility of customers
2. Legal issues
3. Resource limitations
4. Poor communication and feedback
5. Complacency
6. Initiative fatigue
CONCEPTUAL DESCRIPTION
“We at Varroc group are committed to manufacture & deliver Quality products
efficiently on time that comply with customer & regulatory requirements & provide
excellent service by continually improving effectiveness of all processes, while striving
to become a world class organization.”
B. SUPPLIER QUALITY MANAGEMENT:
Supplier quality management has emerged as one of the leading business practices in the
past few years. World- class manufacturers are making significant investments in systems
and processes to improve supplier quality. With companies outsourcing their
manufacturing to strategic partners across the globe, the supply chains have become very
long. In addition, many of these manufacturers have streamlined their supply chain and
implemented lean inventory techniques. As a result, any issue in supplier quality can
quickly result in stock outs.
All over the world organizations are under pressure to reduce production lead times &
production costs. These pressures have led companies to attempt to improve the
efficiency of their internal processes by adopting new business practices like Total
Productive Management, Just In Time, etc. But they have now realized that isolated
improvement in individual organization within larger system of interdependent
environment would not be enough to achieve their objectives. They have recognized the
need for better coordination with upstream firms that supply inputs and the network of
downstream firms responsible for the distribution of their products to the customers and
after sales service. This has resulted in the emergence of the concept of supplier up
gradation.
Varroc expect suppliers to meet the same high standards which varroc set for themselves.
In this rapidly changing business environment greater demands are being placed on
business to provide products quickly with greater added value, to the correct location
with least possible inventory levels. Customer expects high quality, design, innovation,
convenience & service at reduced cost. Supplier systems assessments are done through
audits to review suppliers’ quality management system, manufacturing processes,
material handling system & compliance with varroc requirements.
In this system, assessment identifies concerns, Varroc asks the suppliers to develop
corrective action plans & to provide evidence that they are implementing
recommendations. Varroc help suppliers to improve by sharing best practices & work
with them to manage their suppliers, so that sustainable improvements are achieved
through out the supply chain. The key areas are identified and assessed in the supplier
quality audit. This assessment system includes:
• M an ag emen t
• En g in eer in g
• Quality control
• Measurement control
• In process control
• Manufacturing process
• Abnormality control
• D ev elo p men t
• S to r es
• Purchase
A Supplier quality rating or vendor rating is a business term used to describe the process
of measuring an organization's supplier capabilities and performance. Supplier rating
forms part of Varroc's supplier relationship management. Such systems follow the criteria
that are used for assessment broadly falls into quantative and
qualative types. Common criteria include:
1.Quality
2.Delivery schedule adherence
3. Cost/Price
4. Capability
5.Service
Results of each variable are then weighted into a final score – usually a percentage,
allowing suppliers to be ranked. Supplier rating is an ongoing activity, suppliers are
assessed periodically. Various criteria can be analyzed within supplier rating system. A
common approach is to utilize Quality, service and Delivery measures and apply
weighting against criteria in accordance with company requirements.
Varroc then often categorized suppliers according to results which may commonly be
used to highlight poor performing suppliers so that they can be blocked from the business
sharing. Supplier rating results may also trigger improvement programs on suppliers that
score low in supplier quality audits. Supplier ratings system is utilized to drive
performance and improve the business relation.
It is one of the best techniques in using facts to rank the supplier’s relative
performance within the supply base and tracking improvement in supplier’s
quality over the longer period of time.
Where,
Q1 = Quantity accepted
Q2 = Quantity accepted under deviation
Q3 = Quantity partially accepted
Q4 = Quantity rejected
Q = Total quantity
X1 = Demerit factor (material accepted under deviation)
X2 = Demerit factor (material accepted with segregation)
Service rating is subjective rating given on the basis of service provided in handling
the customer concern by the suppliers.
SDR= ( Q1 / Q ) * 100
Where,
Q1 = Quantity promised to supply within stipulated delivery time
Q = Actual quantity supplied
sr = Service Rating
5. Analytical weightage:
SQR = 85%
SDR = 10%
sr = 5%
6.Supplier category:
Suppliers are categorized according to supplier rating results which are used to
highlight poor performing suppliers so that they can be blocked from the business
sharing.
