CHAPTER I
1.1 INTRODUCTION
Thus Ponlait was committed to improve the economic and social uplift of the rural
farming / milk producing community and supplying the urban consumers with good
quality milk
The only institution in Pondicherry is extending more than a crore every month to rural
economy in cash for the benefit of farming community, by way of Milk Purchase.
B. MILK PROCESSING
The present handling capacity of the Dairy plant is 50,000 ltrs per day. However with
prudent technical manpower and top managements support an average of 80,000 ltrs of
milk is handled per day and 93,000 ltrs of milk handled in peak.
3 varieties of milk namely Tonned Milk, Standardised Milk & Premium Milk are
produced as per the consumer requirements. The daily consumer demand is met fully.
Present demand is 62,000 to 65,000 liters per day.
From the August 2002, the Dairy is supplying 15,000 liters of standardised milk to school
children in the morning under Sri Rajiv Gandhi School Children Break fast scheme, 1 st of
its kind in the nation organized by the government of pondicherry. Besides at present the
union is 28,500 liters if milk supplying to the students both in the morning and evening.
The Evening milk supply effected from 20-10-2005 as desired by the government of
pondicherry.
Besides milk processing and grading, the Dairy is equipped to produce 15 MTS of ghee
and 1500 kgs of Khoa (milk peda) monthly. The Ponlait ghee and khoa are much sought
after products in the pondicherry town.
The Dairy is producing 1000-1500 pockets of flavoured milk and 500-1000 of butter milk
every day and sells in pondicherry town.
The Dairy is also producing Paneer and Curd as per the requirement of the consumer as
and when needed.
Since the milk is highly perishable commodity, proper care is taken to maintain quality of
the milk right from the point of production to the point of consumption. At the village
level, the milk poured by the individual member producer are tested at the primary
society.
The milk tested for the quality at society level reaches the Dairy Plant. The raw milk is
tested organoleptically at the Dairy reception dock for its quality and then the individual
society sample are tested for its fat content and other microbial standards.
Apart form this, the processed milk is sampled at every point of storage during the
process and proper care is taken to maintain quality standards.
Finally the different varieties of milk are graded and kept ready for packing to the
consumers. The pouched milk samples are randomly taken and tested for its shelf life
after dispatch of the consumers. Presently the milk is dispatched to the market at 5 degree
centigrade in three varieties viz Toned milk 3.0% Fat 8.5% SNF, Standardised milk 4.5%
Fat 8.5% SNF and the Premium milk 5.0% Fat 9.0% SNF. (SNF- Solids Not Fat)
Day in and Day out maintaining the quality of milk receives the top priority.

A study of this nature will make management of an organization to derive the following
benefits.
The attitudes of customers can be improved through this study. And this study determines
the customers satisfaction towards their product.
CHAPTER II
REVIEW OF LITERATURE
Consumer satisfaction is an ambiguous and abstract concept and the actual manifestation
of the state of satisfaction will vary from person to person and product/service to product/service.
The state of satisfaction depends on a number of both psychological and physical variables which
correlate with satisfaction behaviors such as return and recommend rate. The level of satisfaction
can also vary depending on other options the customer may have and other products against
which the customer can compare the organization's products.
Because satisfaction is basically a psychological state, care should be taken in the effort of
quantitative measurement, although a large quantity of research in this area has recently been
developed. Work done by Berry, Brodeur between 1990 and 1998 defined ten 'Quality Values'
which influence satisfaction behavior, further expanded by Berry in 2002 and known as the ten
domains of satisfaction. These ten domains of satisfaction include: Quality, Value, Timeliness,
Efficiency, Ease of Access, Environment, Inter-departmental Teamwork, Front line Service
Behaviors, Commitment to the Customer and Innovation. These factors are emphasized for
continuous improvement and organizational change measurement and are most often utilized to
develop the architecture for satisfaction measurement as an integrated model. Work done by
Parasuraman, Zeithaml and Berry between 1985 and 1988 provides the basis for the measurement
of customer satisfaction with a service by using the gap between the customer's expectation of
performance and their perceived experience of performance. This provides the measurer with a
satisfaction "gap" which is objective and quantitative in nature. Work done by Cronin and Taylor
propose the "confirmation/disconfirmation" theory of combining the "gap" described by
Parasuraman, Zeithaml and Berry as two different measures (perception and expectation of
performance) into a single measurement of performance according to expectation. According to
Garbrand, customer satisfaction equals perception of performance divided by expectation of
performance.
The usual measures of customer satisfaction involve a survey with a set of statements
using a Likert Technique or scale. The customer is asked to evaluate each statement and in term
of their perception and expectation of the performance of the organization being measured.
This is the most daunting and downright scary part of interacting with a customer. If
you're not used to this sort of thing it can be a pretty nerve-wracking experience. Rest assured,
though, it does get easier over time. It's important to meet your customers face to face at least
once or even twice during the course of a project.
My experience has shown that a client finds it easier to relate to and work with someone they've
actually met in person, rather than a voice on the phone or someone typing into an email or
messenger program. When you do meet them, be calm, confident and above all, take time to ask
them what they need. I believe that if a potential client spends over half the meeting doing the
talking, you're well on your way to a sale.
This goes without saying really. We all know how annoying it is to wait days for a
response to an email or phone call. It might not always be practical to deal with all customers'
queries within the space of a few hours, but at least email or call them back and let them know
you've received their message and you'll contact them about it as soon as possible. Even if you're
not able to solve a problem right away, let the customer know you're working on it.
A good example of this is my Web host. They've had some trouble with server hardware
which has caused a fair bit of downtime lately. At every step along the way I was emailed and
told exactly what was going on, why things were going wrong, and how long it would be before
they were working again. They also apologized repeatedly, which was nice. Now if they server
had just gone down with no explanation I think I'd have been pretty annoyed and may have
moved my business elsewhere. But because they took time to keep me informed, it didn't seem so
bad, and I at least knew they were doing something about the problems. That to me is a prime
example of customer service.
A fellow Site Pointer once told me that you can hear a smile through the phone. This is
very true. It's very important to be friendly, courteous and to make your clients feel like you're
their friend and you're there to help them out. There will be times when you want to beat your
clients over the head repeatedly with a blunt object - it happens to all of us. It's vital that you keep
a clear head, respond to your clients' wishes as best you can, and at all times remain polite and
courteous.
Have a Clearly-Defined Customer Service Policy
This may not be too important when you're just starting out, but a clearly defined
customer service policy is going to save you a lot of time and effort in the long run. If a customer
has a problem.Should they contact different people for billing and technical enquiries. If they're
not satisfied with any aspect of your customer service, who should they tell?
There's nothing more annoying for a client than being passed from person to person, or not
knowing who to turn to. Making sure they know exactly what to do at each stage of their enquiry
should be of utmost importance. So make sure your customer service policy is present on your
site -- and anywhere else it may be useful
.
Attention to Detail (also known as 'The Little Niceties')
Have you ever received a Happy Birthday email or card from a company you were a
client. You ever had a personalized sign-up confirmation email for a service that you could tell
was typed from scratch. These little niceties can be time consuming and aren't always cost
effective, but remember to do them.
Even if it's as small as sending a Happy Holidays email to all your customers, it's something. It
shows you care; it shows there are real people on the other end of that screen or telephone; and
most importantly, it makes the customer feel welcomed, wanted and valued.
Anticipate Your Client's Needs & Go Out Of Your Way to Help Them Out
Sometimes this is easier said than done! However, achieving this supreme level of
understanding with your clients will do wonders for your working relationship Take this as an
example: you're working on the front-end for your client's exciting new ecommerce Endeavour.
You have all the images, originals and files backed up on your desktop computer and the site is
going really well. During a meeting with your client he/she happens to mention a hard-copy
brochure their internal marketing people are developing. As if by magic, a couple of weeks later a
CD-ROM arrives on their doorstep complete with high resolution versions of all the images
you've used on the site. A note accompanies it which reads:
It's possible this is the most important point in this article. The simple message: when
you promise something, deliver. The most common example here is project delivery dates.
Clients don't like to be disappointed. Sometimes, something may not get done, or you
might miss a deadline through no fault of your own. Projects can be late, technology can fail and
sub-contractors don't always deliver on time. In this case a quick apology and assurance it'll be
ready ASAP wouldn't go amiss.
Conclusion
Customer service, like any aspect of business, is a practiced art that takes time and
effort to master. All you need to do to achieve this is to stop and switch roles with the customer.
What would you want from your business if you were the client. Treat your customers like your
friends and they'll always come back.

6.2 SUGGESTION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
The respondent of the consumption of the milk once a day is not more greater than the twice a
day. So the consumption of the milk once a day has to be increased.
The Purpose for utilization shows that tea stall is utilizing more when compare to the family
