(o**uni(ate and shorten the ti*e gap it2s nearly i*possi%le to run
su(h a huge (o*pany so effi(iently.
5$ I reali1ed ho) *inute an error (an (ause a (o*pany su(h a s(ale
thousands to e'en lakhs, all %e(ause of a hu*an or a te(hni(al error
so*eti*es. I understood the 'arious %a(kup plans and plan!2s the
(o*pany need to think in ad'an(e for su(h une-pe(ted situations ..o a
(o*pany al)ays needs to deploy su(h *easures in ad'an(e as su(h
une-pe(ted situations are %ound to o((ur and no *anager (an predi(t
the* )ell in ad'an(e. " (o*pany gets to kno) a%out all su(h situations
after so*e years of e-perien(e in the *arket )hi(h C"VE>>2s had.
6$ To any (o*pany its e*ployees are its *ain resour(es and I at
Ca'ells got the opportunity to see the e*ployee (ulture and
(o**it*ent to)ards their )ork. The e*ployee does not (o*es to the
(o*pany in the sa*e good *ood e'eryday and it2s the duty of the
(o*pany to understand the pro%le*s of his e*ployee and *ake sure
that the e*ployee irrespe(ti'e of its so(ial (onditions feel at a se(ond
ho*e in the (o*pany and deli'er his %est. I got to understand the
'arious (orporate rules that an e*ployee needs to o%ey to *aintain a*
i*age of the (o*pany in the *arket. These s*all things *ay 'ary fro*
the look and unifor* of the e*ployee to the e*ployee greeting any
potential (lient or (usto*er. I reali1ed that the e*ployees are the
%iggest %oss in any (o*pany and handling the* )ell enough (an %ring
great ri(hes to the (o*pany. ">> e*ployees in the (o*pany are not
4AAF dedi(ated and loyal to the (o*pany and *ay %e in sear(h of a
%etter opportunity else)here. It2s the C; depart*ent task to find out
su(h e*ployees understand their pro%le*s and needs and pro'ide a
BINBIN situation. "lso )ith regards to su(h e*ployees the (o*pany
needs to for*ulate so*e *andatory poli(ies for e'eryone to follo)
in(luding the %oss. Dis(ipline is a *ust and *ust for any (o*pany to
a(hie'e their targets on ti*e.
8$ I reali1ed the i*portan(e of %eing in tou(h )ith the other
depart*ents (onstantly and ho) any fail in (o**uni(ation (an *ake
the )hole pro(ess go do)n for hours and also I learnt ho) they su* up
the losses in(urred during this pro(ess. "s for the logisti(s depart*ent
is the depart*ent that (onne(ts the in'entory to the *arket a lot of
(o**uni(ations happens on stop throughout the day and their *ay%e
possi%ility of (o**uni(ation gap o((urring at so*e ti*e or another and
so they take 'arious *easures for infor*ation +uality assuran(e as this
infor*ation is the only thing that should not (hange throughout.
9$ .oft)are and te(hnology has helped people a lot and it )ill
(ontinue to help a lot in future. Be should adopt to the (hanging
en'iron*ent and adopt so*e soft)are2s pra(ti(es if they redu(e our
)ork to half.."P is su(h a soft)are that has taken o'er the tension of
the %ig (o*panies and is helping the* to *anage their 'arious pie(es
of infor*ation at one single pla(e and )ith one single (li(k (an get
a((ess to any latest infor*ation. I (annot think a%out the running of
su(h huge (o*pany )ithout the use of su(h great soft)are. "ll the
depart*ents )ere in tou(h )ith other through the use of this soft)are
as it pro'ided the latest updates, de*ands to *eet, the e-ternal
*aterials to order, the produ(t (ount and e'ery s*all infor*ation that
any one )ants to see.
:$ "lso I (on(lude that any (o*pany (an2t think of *aking profits
fro* the 'ery first day .it2s al)ays a pro(ess of trial and error, (ost
(utting, *aking ea(h pro(ess as effi(ient as possi%le , learning fro* the
pre'ious *arket e-perien(es and then the ne-t day (onsidering all
those things deli'er yet %etter. It takes a lot of ti*e for a (o*pany to
esta%lish as a %rand and *ake a na*e in the *arket.
