Sourcing raw material • Pak Suzuki are sourcing raw material from different countries like, Japan, Korea , Thailand but most of the components are sourced from Japan SMC i.e. Suzuki motor company. • Furthermore Pak Suzuki importing components from SMC Japan as CKD that means (completely knock down) i.e. fully disassembled form. There are three department they involving for procuring components from vendor that are as follows. • The following set of criteria is essential for deciding on choice of vendors: • i) Price • ii) Quality of goods/services. Such a justification must be verifiable. • iii) Availability of goods/services within the required delivery time. • iv) After sale services, including availability of parts/supplies. • v) Bidder’s previous records of performance and service. • vi) Ability of bidder to render satisfactory service in this instance. • vii) Financial stability of the vendor. • viii) Availability of bidder’s representatives to call upon and consult with • ix) Payment terms • x) Warranty offered. • xi) Ability to provide samples Traditionally Suzuki motors are keeping inventory as in case problems arise i.e. of stock out. They are also working on Just in Time approach (JIT). 1. JIT objective: To eliminate inventory 2. JIT requires: • a. Small lot sizes • b. Slow setup time • c. Containers for fixed numbers of parts 3. JIT inventory: Minimum inventory to keep system running, Lower inventory reduces waste and reducing inventory reveals problems so they can be solved. • We also suggested the JIT for the Inventory, so there are no any conflict between our suggested inventory and Pak Suzuki inventory . • Local parts purchasing department (LPP): LPP sent delivery order to vendors monthly basis (firm orders), delivery order contains order quantity, delivery dates, packing size, minimum lot size, and starting date Ordering process through ERP in PSMCL: LPP issue delivery order and part tags to vender, delivery order shows all details and part tags to vender through e-mail and vender is liable to paste part tags and delivery instruction letter along with supplier in order to generate GRINS (goods receivable inspection notes) DI’s (delivery instructions) and part tags explore all the relevant information about location and quantity. • Departmental head of production control prepares YEARLY ACITVITY PLAN in consultation with all the sectional heads of the department and takes approval from divisional head. • In the yearly plan, the basic activities of production control are described.

Market Intelligence Pak Suzuki not having the Market Intelligence department which provides the information about the market changes, competitors activities and Government policies which also effect the entire planning of the organization. CFT TEAM In Pak Suzuki there are no CFT team for purchasing or other sales decisions. They must establish the CFT team in the company. De-centralized Purchasing System They must do the De-centralized system of the purchasing for least cost requirement and for the normal office supplies. • Develop Vendors Society (In the consideration of the law and order situation especially in Karachi Pak Suzuki is also emphasizing to develop a vendor’s society for the purpose they are lending land to their vendors (importantly critical parts’ vendors). Pak Suzuki offer land on the basis of lease). Yearly planning of the required items from different vendors Purchasing Process on ERP system 22
