CHAPTER I
INDUSTRY PROFILE
EVOLUTION/HISTORY
Looking back, Indian auto ancillary industry can be categorized in two parts: pre-Maruti
arena and post-Maruti arena. Before Maruti Suzuki India (Maruti) started its operations in
India in 1983, most automotive industry players were more like assemblers of the original
equipment manufacturer (OEM) parts, and they were rather smaller contributors to
automotive industry.

 Supply chain tiers of auto ancillary industry


In the beginning years of Maruti imported most of the components and assembled in
India to increase production rapidly. In order to bring down cost and as well as to
reduce lead time, Maruti planned to increase locally manufactured components in
their cars. To maintain the same quality and culture of Japanese manufacturing
industry, Maruti encouraged partnerships of its Japanese subcontractors to Indian
manufacturers. In many cases, subcontractors – forming Tier I suppliers of Maruti –
sourced their supplies from their subcontractors, thus forming Tier II suppliers in
supply chain of auto ancillary industry. Maruti’s success with subcontracting
encouraged other growing automotive industry players such as Tata, Mahindra go
same route. This helped them cut down cost, decentralizing supply of components
and thus establishing more reliable supply chain. Ability to develop subcontractors
with defined processes and procedures allowed automotive industry to expand their
productions to newer locations quickly.

 Growth of auto ancillary industry


Before 1983, Auto ancillary industries focused on supplying auto components to very
few companies in India as well as export them to certain smaller extent. In order to
maintain the same quality of component as that of original ones, Maruti also provided
tools and technologies to Indian subcontractors. This availability of advanced foreign
technology helped auto ancillary industry to develop its base rapidly.
In 1991 Indian economy was opened, bringing in more automotive manufacturers to
India. Even though they did bring their subcontractors too, eventually ended up
developing and sourcing components from local subcontractors. Auto ancillary
industry was helped by this expansion and come out of shadow of Maruti as they had
new options to supply their components. Though boost in demand of automobile
presented opportunity to expand, new entrants in auto ancillary industry also gave rise
to competition. In 2019-20, auto ancillary industry constituted 4% total export from
India. It accounted for 2.3% of GDP and 25% of manufacturing GDP.

MAJOR PLAYERS AND THEIR MARKET SHARES

The major players in the auto ancillary market are GNA axles, Varroc Engineering and Pricol with
a market share of 916 crore, 5618 crore and 1151 crore respectively. So, when we plot these
values on a graph, we can see that Varroc Engineering is a major player in the auto ancillary
industry.

According to the graph, the highest market capitalization is Varroc Engineering and it captures
almost 73% of the market capital. The second company with highest market capital according to the
data is Pricol and the third highest is GNA axles.
INDUSTRY GROWTH RATE & TURNOVER

Industry turnover is anticipated to reach US$ 200 billion by FY26 and exports from the industry is
expected to grow at an annual rate of 23.9% to reach US$ 80 billion by 2026. The Indian auto-
components industry is set to become the third largest in the world by 2025.

Below are few infographics showing performance in 2019-20:

 Industry revenue

 Year over year growth

GOVT. REGULATIONS/POLICIES
The Government of India’s Automotive Mission Plan (AMP) 2006-2016 has come a
long way in ensuring growth for the sector. Indian Automobile industry is expected to
achieve a turnover of US$ 300 billion by 2026 and will grow at a CAGR of 15% from
its current revenue of US$ 74 billion.
In November 2020, the Union Cabinet approved PLI scheme in automobile and
auto components with an approved financial outlay over a five-year period of Rs.
57,042 crore (US$ 8.1 billion)

Government has come out with Automotive Mission Plan (AMP) 2016-26 which will
help the automotive industry to grow and will benefit Indian economy in the
following ways: -

 Contribution of auto industry in the country’s GDP will rise to over 12%.
 Around 65 million incremental number of direct and indirect jobs will be created.
 End of life Policy will be implemented for old vehicles.

McKINSEY’S 7S MODEL

What is McKinsey’s 7s Model?


The McKinsey 7s model is a strategic tool and framework that helps managers and
businesses assess their performance. The McKinsey 7s model identifies 7 key elements for an
organization that need to be focused and aligned for successful change management
processes as well as for regular performance enhancements.

The 7 elements identified in the McKinsey 7s model can be categorized as being hard or
soft in nature. They are identified as:

 Hard Elements
 Strategy
 Structure
 Systems
 Soft Elements
 Shared values
 Skills
 Style
 Staff

Bosch makes use of the McKinsey 7s model to regularly enhance its performance, and
implement successful change management processes. Bosch focuses on the 7 elements
identified in the model to ensure that its performance levels are consistently maintained, and
improved for the offerings.

1. HARD ELEMENTS
The hard elements of the McKinsey 7s model comprise of strategy, structure, and
systems. The hard elements of the model are easier to identify, more tangible in
nature, and directly controlled and influenced by the leadership and management of
the organization.

1.1. STRATEGY

1.1.1. Clearly

defined

and communicated to all the employees and stakeholders. This helps the

aligned with the business strategy.

the changing consumer trends and demands, as well as the evolving consumer market
patterns and consumption behavior. This is an important part of the strategic direction
at Bosch as it allows the company to remain competitive and relevant to its target
consumer groups, as well as allows the company to identify demand gaps in the
consumer market.
1.2. STRUCTURE

1.2.1. Organizational hierarchy


Bosch has a flatter organizational hierarchy that is supported by learning and
progressive organizations. With lesser managerial levels in between and more access
to the senior management and leadership, the employees feel more secure and
confident and also have higher access to information. Moreover, the flatter hierarchy
also allows quicker decision-making processes for Bosch and increases organizational
commitment in the employees.

1.2.2. Inter-Departmental coordination


Bosch has high coordination between different departments. The company’s
departments often form inter-department teams for projects and tasks that require
multiple expertise. All coordination between different departments is effective and
organized. Bosch has a systematic process for initiating and monitoring coordination
between departments to ensure smooth work operations and processes – and goal
attainment.

1.2.3. Internal team dynamics [department specific]


Bosch encourages teamwork and team-oriented tasks. Where jobs require individual
attention and scope, the company also assigns individual responsibilities and job
tasks. However, all employees at Bosch are expected to be team players who can
work well with and through other members, and who get along well with other
people.

1.2.4. Centralization vs. decentralization


Bosch has a hybrid structure between centralization and decentralization. Like many
progressive organizations, Bosch largely supports decentralized decision making. Job
roles at Bosch are designed to be carried out with responsibility, and employees often
set their goals with mutual coordination and understanding with the supervisors.
However, Bosch is also centralized in making sure that supervisors oversee, and
approve of the various efforts, and tactics that employees choose to ensure that they
are aligned with the organizational strategy ad values.

1.2.5. Communication
Bosch has a developed and intricate system for ensuring communication between
employees, and different managerial levels. The communication systems at Bosch
enhance the overall organizational structure. The systematic, defined, and organized
communication allows an easy flow of information and ensures that no organizational
tasks and goals are compromised because of a lack of communication, or
misunderstandings.

operations are managed effectively and that there are no conflicts or disputes. The
systems at Bosch are largely departmental in nature, and include, for example:

- Operations
- Sales
- Supply chain management
- Public Relation Management
- Strategic leadership

1.3.2. Defined controls for systems


Each of the defined and demarcated systems at Bosch has especially designed tools
and methods as controls for evaluating performance and goal attainment. These
controls and measures are designed specifically in different departments based on the
nature of their tasks and responsibilities.

1.3.3. Monitoring and evaluating controls


Bosch continually evaluates its systems through the designed controls. This
monitoring of the performance is continual and ongoing. This is largely done through
observation and informal discussions. Feedback to employees and overall department
heads is informally given regularly as and when is required. Formal evaluation of
performance is also conducted semiannually – or quarterly, depending on the need
and the urgency of the projects and assigned tasks.

1.3.4. Internal processes for organizational alignment


Bosch also has special processes and methods for ensuring that all departments and
systems within the organization are aligned and working in harmony towards the
greater business goals and targets. This is made possible through ensuring that all
systems are designing and working towards goals and targets specific to their
expertise under the broader business vision and strategy.

2. SOFT ELEMENTS
The soft elements of the McKinsey 7s model, in turn, include shared values, staff,
skills, and strategy. These elements are less tangible in nature and are more influenced
by the organizational culture. As such, the management does not have direct influence
or control over them. These elements are also harder to describe and directly identify
– but are equally important for an organization’s success and improved performance.
2.1 SHARED VALUES

2.1.1. Core values

them as soon as possible.
2.2.3. Cooperation vs competition – internally
With its supportive and encouraging organizational culture, Bosch gives way to
internal collaboration and cooperation between employees, systems, teams, and
departments. This cooperation and collaboration at Bosch are important since its
operations are spread globally, and also because tasks and responsibilities within the

Waterman and Tom Peters in the 1980s. The 7S stand for structure, stratergy,systems, skills ,
style, staff and shared values.
There are two elements in the 7S analysis
 Hard elements - Stratergy,Structure and Systems
 Soft elements - Skills, Style, Staff and Shared values
We will see how the hard elements and soft elements are applied in case of eClerx.

1. Hard elements
The hard elements consists of Stratergy,Structure and Systems.
 Structure
eClerx has a tall organizational structure as there are more people on the top and
as the organization grows, the number of levels grow. Initially, the focus of the
company was on digital services, financial markets, and customer operations
but
now with time, they have forayed into talent, onshore consulting, digital delivery
which meant that they need more people as subsequent levels increase.
 Strategy
2021 Q1 started on a dull note due to the ongoing pandemic situation. But the
employees were able to quickly adopt to the WFH modus operandi and raise the
production in such a way that they increased their total income by 13.11%, their
earnings before interest and tax (EBIT) by 62.78% and their profit after tax (PAT)
increased by nearly 80% as compared to previous quarter. This can be visualized
in the following manner.

 Systems
They use a chain system where different levels of management report to their
seniors. Their system is divided into 3 parts Board of directors, N-1 and N-2
levels. The N-1 level of the company comprises CFO, Secretary, Technology, HR
and Customer Support. The N-2 level of the system consist of services like
financial markets, enterprise technology, program, compensation benefits and
onshore consulting

2. Soft elements
The soft elements include: Skills, Style, Staff and Shared values.
 Skills
Employers at eClerx look for people who can lead the way. According to some
employee reviews some of them say that the hardest part of the job was to prove
themselves that they can be the best in every situation. They also make sure that
there is a good amount of coordination among the teams.
 Style
They follow a mix of autocratic and democratic management style as according to
some employee reviews they provide a quality workplace to work in so that there
is positive environment in the organization. But they follow autocratic style while
giving salaries to the employees which means that some employees do not get
their payments on time.
 Staff
Managers at eClerx make sure that their staff is motivated and always give their
best in whatever they do by giving them essential benefits like maternity leaves
for female employees. They make sure that their employees are up to the industry
standards which they make sure by providing adequate Job Training and tuition

 Shared Values

chunk of their money on upskilling their HR. They are honest and empathetic in
their interactions with their clients. They make sure they do the best in
whatever they do.
