2.1. Market Needs

Whenever there is a power failure supplied by the Tenaga Nasional Berhad (TNB), Diesel
Generators Set is normally will be used as an alternaltive back up. This requirement is usually
required by factories and buildings in order to ensure continous supply of electrical power.
However, Diesel Generator Sets is also known to be one of the source to emit toxic exhaust gases
and annoying noise.

In order to control the emmision, the Department of Environment (DOE) as set a guidelines under
Section 36, Clean Air Act 1978 - which among others requires that Diesel Generator Sets to be
installed together with acoustic treatment system. The system shall consist of Discharge
Silencers, Intake Silencers, Exhaust Silencers and Acoustic Doors.

As an acoustic company which providing those products required by the Diesel Genset suppliers,
we are in position to provide those needs. The market is expected to grow as the requirement of
the backup power and environment awareness increases.

2.3.2. Product Offering

A typical design of Acoustic treatment for genset room normally will reduce the noise
level down to 75 to 85 dB(A) measured at 1 meter away from the genset house. However,
the noise can be designed to achieve better if the requirement call for it.

In Malaysia, the Department of Environment (DOE) guidelines on the Acoustic

Treatment is to control the noise level to 65 dB(A) during daytime and 55 dB(A) during
nighttime, measured at the boundary of premises.

Control At Source

The best way to treat noise is always to do it at the source and for Generator Sets, there
are three major noise sources produce by the gensets: -

 Noise emitted by the Radiator Fan

 Noise emitted by the Exhaust System
 Noise emitted by mechanical engine itself

Acoustic Equipment for Noise Control treatment in the generator sets room mainly
consists of the following: -

 Fan Discharge Silencers

 Intake Silencers
 Exhaust Silencers
 Acoustic Doors

2.3.4. SWOT Summary

The SWOT analysis covers strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats. Strengths
and weaknesses are generally internal attributes, which we can address by changing our
business. Opportunities and threats are generally external.

Overall, the mix is exciting. We live in an age of growth, change, and business
revolution. The Internet offers us opportunities and threats. We need to make our dealing
with it one of our biggest strengths, to minimize our weaknesses.

2.3.4.1. Strengths

1. True expertise. All of our staff know this area very well. Our
experience and expertise is at par if not better than anybody we know
of in this particular niche area.

Page 5
Acoustic Treatment on Diesel Generator Set Marketing Plan 2010

2. ISO Certified Company. We are one of the two caompny that have the
ISO Certification.
3. Well Establish Execution System. We have a very well establish
system to deliver products reqyuiremnt in a very short time.
4. Contacts. Years of industry experience means a lot of word-of-mouth
marketing, contacts, and networking.

2.3.4.2. Weaknesses

1. Price in not competitive. Our price as compare with the next market
leader is about 15% higher.
2. Weak in Comunication. The communication between production and
sales, sometimes lead to waste of resourse i.e, manpower and
transportation.
3. Lock set problem - Acooustic Door. Unending problem on the lockset.
Pull down our margin for replacement and repair
4. Lack of Marketing Staff. We only one dedicate sale force to look in this
market. The market is big enough for at least one more sale staff.

2.3.4.3. Opportunities

1. Requirement of Fire Rate Door. Should our door can be fire rated
certified, the growth rate can be at least 10% a year.
2. Awareness of the Environment. Malaysian goverment just committed
to reduce the emission of CO2. We should look into add-on product
that not only reduce noise but the CO2 as well.
3. Oversea Market. Middle East and Africa market is growing. This
technology is still not widely use around this area.
4. Internet potential for selling products to other markets

2.3.4.4. Threats

1. Future/potential competition from within your own staff

2. A slump in national and world economy
3. Inforseen govermental regulatory actions.
4. Difficulty in getting the skill workers

2.4. Competition

3. Marketing Strategy
Item body here

3.1. Value Proposition

Providing quality service is critical. Our business and individual clients judge our competence
based on how we treat them and the given problem that need to be solved. This is their primary -
and in many cases their only - measurement of our capabilities. Our Value Proposition to the
client is that we contribute to their design, engineering and project planning work. We will work
closely with our clients to make sure we know what their goals are, and where they want to be in
the future so that every service we provide is personal and custom-tailored for our clients.

3.2. Critical Issues

The most critical issue is repeat business. We can't build this company on a faulty foundation; we
have to have a core group of satisfied clients who come back to us on a regular basis. We can't
afford to spend the capital it would take to generate new clients constantly. The repeat business
costs about a tenth as much in sales and marketing as the new client.

Repeat business is built on the correct strategic mix of excellence in delivery, clear
communication of promise and scope, and follow through.

Most of our competitors build on a structure that has the partners selling the jobs and new hires,
bright young people without a lot of experience, delivering. We can't afford to follow that lead.
We can use a staff to leverage some of the footwork and analysis work, but ultimately our work
must be our own.

3.3. Financial Objectives

1. To grow our sales more than 5% over during a three-year period, from RM1.8 in 2010 to
$2.3 million in 2012.
2. To significantly decrease our sales and marketing expenses as a percent of sales: from
34.5% this year to 26% by 2012.
3. To increase contribution margin from 5% to 8% over three years.

3.4. Marketing Objectives

1. We need to establish ourselves as experts. This means being quoted in major trade press,
speaking at industry events, and gaining recognition. Our measurable and specific
objective is to be introduced as an acoustic experts and a reliable engineering company.

Page 7
 Acoustic Treatment on Diesel Generator Set Marketing Plan 2010

1. We need brand-name reference clients. By the end of this year, we need three major
brand names we can cite as clients. We need to be able to reference by name and contact
phone number.

1. We need at least one client in each of four main regions. Nothern, Central, Southern and
Eastern region.
