Chapter 1 industrial / sectorial scenario

Automobile is a word derived from ancient geek word ‘autos’ meaning ‘self’ and ‘mobilis’
meaning [Autos + mobilis]
Automobile is a vehicle which is not powered by human but rather controlled by humans.
Automobile has huge varieties of vehicle example truck, cars, buses, bikes etc.
As India is a developing nation .it is one of the fastest growing economies in the whole world.
There are industrial sector like textile, agriculture and automobile have grown since we got
independence.
The support from government and welfare schemes which our nation received has helped to
boost to those segments for steady and progressive growth.
Among all these sector the automobile industry has flourished like never before. If we talk about
whole world the country called India is one of the largest production as well as sales hub.
With this brief introduction on automobile the question may be kick into your mind that how this
giant industry started so let us took toward its evolution.

History of automobile sector in India

The first car that run on Indian road was in 1897. Jamshedji Tata was the first Indian person who
own a car in 1901. It was in 1942 before India’s independence that Hindustan Motors
manufacture the first automobile in India .Soon after India’s independence, the government of
India tried to boost the sector by encouraging manufacturing of automobiles. Before that car
were imported directly.

 1930 India was an importer of automobile.


 1940 Indian automobile industry started its own manufacturing unit.
 1950-60 Tremendous trade restrictions could not boost the automobile industry
 1960-80 The market was largely dominated by Hindustan motors with the ambassador
model
 1983 Maruti came into the competition and swept the marketed .
 The automobile sector formally came into being in the year 1952 when the Government
appointed its first tariff commission with the aim of indigenizing this industry.
 The year 1952 also marked the introduction of passenger cars in the country.
Manufacturers like Hindustan Motors, Premier Automobiles and Standard Motors came
into the limelight.
 1984-92 the government of India stared promoting the automobile industry Delhi auto
Expo was established
 1992 the year of liberalisation and the opening up of the FDI
 1996 the merger of maruti and Suzuki swept the market with 60% market share
 2000 almost all major car companies expanded their presence in India by establishing
manufacturing units
 2009 India emerged as the 4th largest exporter of passenger cars after Japan, South Korea
and Thailand.

7
2011 India became 6th the largest car manufacturer in the world. India is Asia’s 2 nd largest
two wheeler manufacturer.

The evolution of the auto industry contributed much to the economic growth of the country. It
also helped the finance and insurance sectors. The history of automobile make us feel proud.

Challenges faced by automobile sector in India


An integral component of the global economy, the automotive industry, a flourishing behemoth
in itself, has been fraught with many challenges in recent times. While automakers have been
rather forthright in adapting to the transformation the industry continues to experience time and
again, changes in the global technological landscape have prompted the need to quickly analyse
the challenges in automotive industry and brainstorm ideas to resolve the same.

8
1. Excess Production and Related Costs
The increasingly competitive scenario in automotive manufacturing has led to the overcapacity
cropping up as one of the most crucial challenges automotive industry is facing today.

With an unpredictable demand-supply graph at work, in conjunction with changes in the


automotive supply chain ecosystem, manufacturers have been going overboard and have invested
several resources in developing vehicles that may not actually need to be produced. By the time
automakers realize the same, enough finances have already been drained for labor, production,
raw material, etc., and over-expenditure and resource wastage becomes the norm.

Since due to the some last couple of year there has been reduction in the demand for vehicle
despite the increased affordable which also emerging as one of the major challenges in
automobile industry.

2. The Self-driving Evolution


One of the most revolutionizing breakthroughs of the 21 st century, the self-driving technology
has surprisingly emerged to be one of pivotal challenges in automotive industry, if experts are to
be believed. While the world has embraced the technology with open arms, it still has a very
long way to go mainstream. Numerous companies have already begun to get their technology on
the road – recently, Ford announced that it plans to expand its self-driving fleet in taxes.

3. Connected Technologies and Their Implications


The connected technologies and their implication is one of the biggest challenges in automotive
industry facing presently

Sometimes due to using the advance technology and features the customers does not able to
work with that and hence create wrong perception. Hence here the company get problem of
selling their product with high level of advance technology cars. This has led to huge amount of
data liable to be stored transferred and analyzed. Modern cars equipped with automotive
electronic apparently collect humongous amount of data on a daily basis that parameters of speed
performance, component behavior etc. and enables the derivation of real-time insights.

9
While the greater demand for connected technologies is certain to bring about a transformational
impact on the automotive manufacturing industry, it will also bring forth a spate of competition
and the requirement of extensive planning and cross-channel integration – right from safety to
service.

Automakers are leveraging on consumer demand for connected vehicles, however, with
increased technological integration comes increased complexity, pertaining to data protection
and consumer safety, which car manufacturers are required to address.

4. Sustainability
In this context, it would be appropriate to state that sustainable challenges in automotive industry
are gaining more precedence than ever before.

The emission have proved that it is a major and hassle for global automotive manufacturing
sector. The air quality is decreasing day by day due to which people has to face a lot of
problems.

For this the government has taken an stringent regulatory spectrum. Regulatory authorities have
introduced an emission cap to be strictly adhered to by automakers.

Increasing CO2 emissions have led to governments levying heavy taxes on car makers, which
has been adding to their financial woes. Manufacturers are grappling to deal with the
introduction of highly stringent CO2 emission standards, which is making them shell out a
humongous amount while designing and building cars. A huge cut-off in diesel sales has also
been observed worldwide, which has further led to a massive drop in new vehicle registrations.
In the light of this scenario, automakers are now beginning to realize the vast expanse of
sustainability challenges in automotive industry.

5. The shift from ownership to access


The shift from ownership to access is one of the most hitting challenges which automobile
industry facing today. Despite increased affordability and a better standard of living, most
consumers witness cars to be more of a perfunctory requirement than a status symbol or a

10
luxurious possession. Numerous surveys have unearthed that consumers are open to the idea of
using their cars as a money-making service when they aren’t using them.

While not every service app is likely to retain 100% success, the current scenario indicates that
the automotive sector is on the verge of observing a massive breakthrough that will see vehicle
manufacturers focusing on the B2B channel rather than the B2C channel.

As the consumers preferences are changing potentially so it is very difficult for automotive
sector to tackle with this would be an great challenge for automobile industry to produce as per
the challenging mindset of people.

6. Millennial Woes

The millennial generation and their demands have come to crop up as one of the major
challenges in automotive industry. Increasing complexity in car production leads to complex
operating instructions as well – something that millennial don’t really want to deal with. This has
led to an increased requirement for personalized, conversational interfaces in automotive
manufacturing, which will eventually result in the demand for more and more technological
advancements.

Decreased preference for ownership is also a pivotal reason millennial marketing is becoming a
major problem. According to an article by Fast Company, the number of cars bought by the
populace between ages 18 to 34 reduced by nearly 30%. A study by the AAA Foundation for
Traffic Safety also claims that of late, 54% teens are licensed before their 18 th birthday, while
only 44% of teens apply for a driver’s license within the first year of eligibility.

The web annalistic company SDL claiming that millennial between the ages of 18 to 36 check
their phone 43 times or more day.

7. Retention of talented workforce

As today the retention of talented workforce has become very challenging that however the
demand and the preferences of the customs getting more toward advance technology more

11
toward digitization and more personalized and this has consequently there is the requirement for
suitable personnel to understand design in corporate and maintain these technology.

As per the report titled future of job in India in 2022 perspectives the automobile sector will
continue to hire employees at the rate of 2% to 2.5% yearly against a historical growth rate of
3% to 35% apparently close to 60% to 65% of the job by 2022 will request new set of skill.

GDP CONTRIBUTION BY AUTOMOBILE SECTOR

The Automotive sector in India is valued at $93 billion currently and is growing at a steady pace.
The automotive industry contributes a whopping 49% of India’s manufacturing GDP. In 2018,
the Automotive Sector contributed to 7.5% of India’s total Gross Domestic Product (GDP).
While this percentage dropped to 7% in the current year, owing to COVID-19, new emission
norms and the economic downturn, experts believe that it may show an increase towards the end
of this year. From March 2020 to April 2020, all automotive manufacturers and dealers were
shut down for a period of 40 days, further contributing to the decline in GDP.

As a result, the GDP, which saw an increasing trend began to feel the pinch of an unexpected and
unforeseeable downfall.

How is India’s Automotive Landscape Changing?

17
India is expected to emerge as the world’s third-largest passenger vehicle market by 2021.The
government and the automotive sector, want to increase the contribution of the automotive sector
to approximately 12%, a 5% increase from what it is today.

India is expected to emerge as the world’s third-largest passenger vehicle market by 2021.The
government and the automotive sector, want to increase the contribution of the automotive sector to
approximately 12%, a 5% increase from what it is today.

Rapid urbanization in India is driving people towards the cities. Smaller towns are also becoming hubs of
economic activity. This means that India will have over 500 million people living in the cities by 2030.
Rising incomes and opportunities will result in over 60 million households entering the consuming class
(upper middle class and upper class). A vast majority of these households will purchase a two wheeler or
a car, and this trend will play a key role in helping the automotive sector grow.

Giving the Automotive Industry a Thrust to facilitate an increased


Share of GDP

The automotive industry will not grow, unless am impetus for growth is provided. These factors
that facilitate the growth of the automotive industry may be either internal or external. Here are
some factors that can influence the growth of the automotive industry in India.

18
1. India as a Manufacturing hub: India imports several automotive components from nations
such as Germany, South Korea and United Kingdom among others. This can be avoided if India
is transformed to be a manufacturing hub. This is result in decreased imports and will help the
growth of the automotive industry in India.

2. Electric Vehicles: Electric Vehicles are steadily penetrating the Indian market and are
becoming common in the urban areas of India. Facilitating the manufacturing and assembly f
electric vehicles and give a boost to the automotive industry.

3. Research and Development: Indian academic institutions are conducting inadequate amounts


of research on development and innovation in the automotive industry. As a result, billions of
dollars is spent on royalties. Focusing on innovation, can make the Indian Automotive industry
command a higher share of the GDP pie.

The Bottom Line

The pandemic is beginning to abate, and it is only a matter of time before the economy starts to
recover. While the emission norms seem to be giving the automotive industry a hard time, they

19
are absolutely essential, as unchecked emissions in combination with a surge in the number of
automobiles will make India unliveable.

Some fact of automobile sector in India

ETAuto analyses a few number related to auto industry that helps in differentiating notions
from truth. For example, the recent double digit growth rate of scooters and the strong
beginning it had in Indian market, tell a different story than what actually unfolded in the
last 2 decades.

1. Eight out of ten bikes sold is either from Hero, Honda


2. One in every two scooters sold is a Honda Aptiva
3. Out of ten Renault sold in India, 9 are Dusters
4. One out of every 2 three-wheeler passenger carrier is a Bajaj

5. Contrary to huge growth rate seen in the scooter segment in the last few quarters in the
long-term scooter sales grew only 4.5 times since 1995 compared to 17.3 times surge in
motorcycles sales in India.

20
GLOBAL PERSPECTIVE OF AUTOMOBILE SECTOR
In 2020, worldwide motor vehicle production fell sharply, dropping 15.4% from the previous
year, because of travel restriction measures and an overall decline in economic activity due to the
COVID-19 pandemic. Passenger cars experienced a more significant drop in production than
commercial vehicles, with decreases of 16.9% and 11.6%, respectively. This marks the third
consecutive year with negative growth in global automotive vehicle production. In contrast,
global electric vehicle (EV) sales increased 39% in 2020, to 3.2 million units, boosting the total
global EV stock to 11.3 million units.

 The latest statistics from the International Organization of Motor Vehicle Manufacturers
reveal a major decline in production across all manufacturing regions, with the most
significant decreases in Latin America (24.8%), Western Europe (24%), and North
America (20.3%).
 Vehicle sales data show a similar story, with 2020 passenger cars sales registering a year-
on-year 15.9% drop and commercial vehicle sales dropping a less devastating 8.7%. In
some world regions, passenger car sales decreased by more than 20% from 2019 levels;
these include Latin America (down 29.3%), the NAFTA region (28.9%), Africa (24.7%),
and Western Europe (21.1%).
 Export trade also suffered a blow from 2020 coronavirus restrictions aiming to slow
down the virus's spread. Motor vehicle exports came to an almost complete standstill in
Eastern Europe, Latin America, and the Middle East, where yearly vehicle export totals
were more than 97% below their 2019 levels. Other regions experienced export decreases
of 40–50%.
 Against the backdrop of an overall motor vehicle market contraction in 2020, exports and
sales in the global EV market registered lucrative growth. Global EV sales have
accelerated by 39% in comparison to 2019, while EV export trade increased by 18%.
Germany now ranks second in EV sales, after China, overtaking the United States in
2020. Norway was the top country by electric vehicle sales share, with 75% of cars sold
in the country being electric, followed by Sweden (32%), Netherlands (25%), and
Denmark (16%).

21
An Overview of the Indian Automotive Industry:

India is the fifth largest market in the world when it comes to automotive sales. In 2019 alone,
over 26 million units were produced and sold in the Indian market. India is also among the top
ten nations when it comes to commercial vehicles. Two wheelers dominate the Indian market
and have a market share of 80.8% owing to the young population in India. The rural market is
also expanding as towns and villages have better access than before. The annual growth rate of
the Indian Automotive market is over 2.3%, indicating a positive trend in the right direction.

Brief history

The history of the Volkswagen brand began with the beetle development work on this Nazi
prestige project began in 1934. On May 28, 1937, the Volkswagens mbH“(Company for the
Preparation of the German Volkswagen Ltd.) was formally established. The name was changed
to “Volkswagenwerk GmbH” in 1938, and the company built its main plant in what has become
Wolfsburg. However, the outbreak of war and integration in the arms industry prevented mass
production of the Volkswagen (“people’s car”) – instead, military vehicles and other armaments
were produced using forced labour.
After the war, the British instructed Volkswagen to build the Volkswagen saloon at the end of
1945. With the Type 1 (beetle) model, and the Type 2 (Transporter) model added in 1950,
Volkswagen became a symbol of Germany’s economic miracle, above all as a result of the
strong export orientation on the part of the company converted into a joint stock corporation in
1960. Innovative and flexible manufacturing systems made an appearance in the 1970s and led to
the birth of a new generation of Volkswagens with the Passat, Scirocco, Golf and Polo models.

Growth was boosted in the 1980s through advances in vehicle technology, flexible production,
and forward-looking international cooperation.

As its globalization advances, Volkswagen is emerging as one of the world’s most successful
volume car manufacturers, and today offers cutting-edge solutions for future issues such as e-
mobility and digitalization.

It ranked seventh in the 2018 fortune global 500 list of the world’s largest companies.

SWOT

SWOT Analysis of Volkswagen focuses on Strength, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats.


Strengths and Weaknesses are internal factors and Opportunities and Threats are external factors.
SWOT Analysis provides a well-tested management methodology that enables Volkswagen to
assess its business performance in comparison with its competitors and industry.

Strengths in the SWOT Analysis of Volkswagen


 Volkswagen is a very well-structured organization. Volkswagen produces highly
engineered luxury cars as well as passenger cars and buses. The product line of
Volkswagen includes Hatchbacks, Crossovers/SUVs, and Hybrid Vehicles. And
manufacturing units of all the products are well structured.

34
 Volkswagen has highly trained employees. Company is giving special emphasis on the
training and development of employees. Trained employees not only work efficiently but
also help in the growth of the organization.

 Volkswagen has a very efficient track record for mergers & acquisitions. Over the last
few years, it has effectively incorporated a range of technology providers to streamline its
activities and create a stable supply chain.
 Volkswagen is generating most of its income from the US. But it has very good sales
from other countries also.

 Weaknesses in the SWOT Analysis of Volkswagen


 Volkswagen has to face some allegations like US Diesel emission frauds, Canadian
emissions charges, Collaboration with dictatorship, Racist Commercial and CEO Use of
Nazi slogans. All these allegations ruin the image of Volkswagen.

 There is very tough competition between car manufacturing companies. Companies are
trying to launch new vehicles at competitive prices. Due to this price competition margins
of the companies are decreasing.

 Volkswagen is not able to create a mark by its car in India. People have many options in
India when they are planning to purchase a car. Recently KIA has entered into the Indian
market and is able to create a good brand image.

 Volkswagen is spending a lot of dollars on advertising its car brands. But in India
Volkswagen was not able to earn more even by spending a lot on advertising.

 Opportunities in the SWOT Analysis of Volkswagen


 Due to the rise in income levels, people are purchasing new cars. This can be a great
opportunity for the company to attract new buyers. Volkswagen can offer schemes like

35
loyalty programs, finance schemes, loan schemes, free service schemes, etc to its
customers.
 Demand will only increase with rising GDP and the product’s increasing need. There are
a number of developing nations. Volkswagen attempts to tap these emerging countries
and can expand worldwide. Volkswagen also needs to analyze the need and demands of
people and manufacture cars depending on these needs.
 Car Exteriors and Interiors always attract customers. Volkswagen must launch new cars
or improve the interiors and exteriors of cars. Volkswagen must improve the performance
of its cars and try to make maintenance free cars.
 Volkswagen must try to launch new Hybrid cars, Fuel-efficient cars. Due to increasing
fuel prices, there is an opportunity for Volkswagen to capture the hybrid car market or the
electric car market.

 Threats in the SWOT Analysis of Volkswagen


 Competition is constantly growing. Competition is not going to back down soon and it is
constantly growing. On this front, there’ll be no relaxation.
 Governments Rules and regulations can directly or indirectly affect the manufacturing
and sales of Volkswagen Cars.
 Brand reputation was ruined due to the emission scandals More than 5 million cars,
including Audi, Volkswagen, and several others, had to be recalled.

Accounting procedure.

2. Accounting Procedure of Volkswagen

MEASUREMENT PRINCIPLES
With certain exceptions, such as financial instruments measured at fair value and provisions
for pensions and other post-employment benefits, items in the Volkswagen Group are
accounted for under the historical cost convention. The methods used to measure the
individual items are explained in more detail below.

INTANGIBLE ASSETS
Purchased intangible assets are recognized at cost and amortized over their useful life using the
straight-line method. This relates in particular to software, which is normally amortized over
three years. In accordance with IAS 38, research costs are recognized as expenses when incurred.

PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT


Property, plant and equipment is carried at cost less depreciation and – where necessary – write-
downs for impairment. Investment grants are generally deducted from cost. Cost is determined
on the basis of the direct and indirect costs that are directly attributable. Special operational
equipment is reported under other equipment, operating and office equipment. Property, plant
and equipment is depreciated using the straight-line method over its estimated useful life. The
useful lives of items of property, plant and equipment are reviewed on a regular basis and
adjusted if required.

LEASES

107
Until December 31, 2018, the Volkswagen Group accounted for leases in accordance with IAS
17. A lease was defined as a contract under which the lessor transfers to the lessee the

Right to use an asset for an agreed period of time in return for a series of payments. The
accounting treatment of the lease at the lessee and lessor depended on the distribution of the risks
and rewards associated with the leased asset.

RIGHT-OF-USE ASSETS/LEASE LIABILITIES


If the Volkswagen Group is the lessee, it generally recognizes in its balance sheet a right-of-use
asset and a lease liability for all leases. During the lease term, the right-of-use asset is always
depreciated on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. The lease liability is adjusted using
the effective interest method and taking the lease payments into account.

LEASE ASSETS
The accounting treatment of leases of lease assets is based on the classification into operating
leases and finance leases. The classification is made on the basis of the distribution of risks and
rewards incidental to ownership of the lease asset.

INVESTMENT PROPERTY
Real estate and buildings held in order to obtain rental income (investment property) are carried
at amortized cost; the useful lives applied to depreciation generally correspond to those of the
property, plant and equipment used by the Company itself. Fair value is generally estimated
using an investment method based on internal calculations. This involves determining the
income value for a specific building on the basis of gross income, taking into account additional
factors such as land value, remaining useful life and a multiplier specific to property.

EQUITY-ACCOUNTED INVESTMENTS
The cost of equity-accounted investments is adjusted to reflect the share of increases or
reductions in equity at the associates and joint ventures after the acquisition that is attributable to
the Volkswagen Group, as well as any effects from purchase price allocation. Additionally, the
investment is tested for impairment if there are indications of impairment and written down to

108
the lower recoverable amount if necessary. The recoverable amount is determined using the
principles described for indefinite-lived intangible assets.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Financial instruments are contracts that give rise to a financial asset of one company and a
financial liability or an equity instrument of another. Regular way purchases or sales of financial
instruments are accounted for at the settlement date – that is, at the date on which the asset is
delivered

109
3. Accounting procedure of Eicher Motors

CORPORATE INFORMATION

India under the provisions of the Companies Act, 1956. The Company is engaged in the
manufacturing and selling of motorcycles, spare parts and related services. The Company has its

Accounting procedure of Toyota motors company

 An activity-based costing (ABC) system is “a cost accounting system that uses both unit
and non-unit-based cost drivers to assign costs to cost objects by first tracing costs to
activities and then tracing costs from activities to products”

 Objective of ABC method is to reduce wrong decisions by providing accurate cost


information. In this method, planned, controlled and economic general production cost
allocation data is acquired with reference to the assumption that the products consume
activities.

 This cost accounting system had adopted by the TOYOTA MOTOR’S to reduce its cost
and make itself too efficient to meet the need of every buyers.

 There are two major objective of ABC: a) Determining and providing elaborate
information related to the activity consumption, cost and interest in production business
as a whole. b) Providing accurate cost information that is going to be used in managerial
decisions.

 In ABC method, linking the products with the costs is based on two basic stages. At the
very first stage, resources such as energy, placing, unit stock keeping are divided in
specific parts and every activity is assigned to the cost pool of its part. And in the second
stage, consumed resources are measured and these are charged to the products from the
related cost pools.

 With the help of this two stages of ABC method the TOYOTA Company use its
resources in the sufficient and effective way so they can maintain their cost of
manufacture.

112
 Designing of the ABC method usually consist 5 steps even though it varies from business
to business. These steps are : 1 identifying activities 2- Classifying activities 3- Costing
activities 4- Selecting accurate cost factors for allocating costs to the products 5-
Charging activity costs to products .

 As in case of Toyota it targets every segment of the customers, therefore it has a vast
range of product lines. The company's main product lines are SUV's, Hybrid, Camry,
Corolla, Land Cruiser and 4wheel trucks.

 These product lines are further sub divided according to the customer range. Although,
the costing system that Toyota is adopting, is activity based costing and but there main
focus is on target coasting but Target costing is related to the activity-based costing on
three point.

 The first one is determining the estimated cost activities that are used on the indirect
areas depending on the product, can be analyzed by original activity costs. The second,
activity-based costing can determine the cost drive of the product planning and the design
offer. The third, activity-based costing can be used as a tool for achieving target cost.
Activity-based costing which identifies the activities required to realize specific product
functions and related to this, determines the cost allocation keys, assists to determine the
optimal value area by transferring activity costs to product functions, so in both ways
Toyota is adopting ABC for their costing system.

 For years Toyota in the United States has been offering seminars open to the public,
including competitors. In these seminars, the Toyota Production System (TPS) is
introduced in detail. Toyota’s approach is three-fold: techniques, systems and philosophy.

113
 Even though Toyota’s techniques and systems are explained in great detail and can be
copied by competitors, none of them have been able to reach the same degree of
efficiency as Toyota.
 However, Toyota is still lacking in effective cost allocation, as they are allocating their
cost according to their product line but in that product line they are not allocating their
cost properly.

 Toyota’s budgeting system is not purely based on target costing, but instead on cost
control, target costing, and kaizen. In Toyota senior management has ultimate
responsibility for making a profit and for administering the budget. The goals set for
employees are in terms of kaizen and tend to motivate employees because kaizen is
simple and understandable by all.
 Toyota’s budgeting system is totally separate from its financial accounting system and is
very different from most budgeting systems. Some of these differences include: 1)
Emphasis is on variable costs. 2) Budget goals are in terms of variable costs to be
reduced via continuous improvement. 3) There are many cost centers. (4) Indirect costs
are not allocated to products. (5) The budgeting system supports a matrix organization.
 From the years the success of Toyota has remained a mystery for their competitor even
though they have given the clarification and talk on their system of costing but still the
rivals are failed to follow the way of Toyota once of the reason could be that It has
successfully understood the use and benefits of ABC and with their cultural coasting
which is Kaizen they have implemented ABC with target budget which has made Toyota
become no 1 in globe.

 From the online videos and research it was found that manufacturing process of Toyota is
mostly done through machine operated. Toyota should allocate their cost according to the
machine hours or labour hours, which required in the manufacturing of one unit.
Secondly, there should be a proper check on the variable costs, which is some time
differs from one unit to another. There should be a proper cost allocation for the fixed
cost of machinery, which is used for a specific product line which will make their system
more efficient as well as cost cutting and less complex.

Corporate Social Responsibility of Volkswagen

117
As part of its Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) programme, Volkswagen is involved in a number of
environmental and social projects beyond the factory gates. At present, 100 current CSR projects are
highlighted by the Sustainability Report of the Volkswagen Group and featured on an interactive world
map

This commitment to sustainability in a variety of areas, according to the German carmaker, is intended to
contribute actively to realising the global development targets laid down in the UN Sustainable
Development Goals (SDGs) and Agenda 2030.

Fighting water shortage in India


In India, where Volkswagen makes and markets five models, has a full-fledged manufacturing plant in
Pune along with a workforce of about 3,500 and 122 dealerships, the CSR initiative is spread across
different parameters. According to Dr Andreas Lauermann, president and MD, VW India, “Our vision is
not only to provide mobility made in India. It is also about promoting public and individual wellbeing.
This includes clear targets for environmentally compatible car production as well as a focus on helping
local communities thrive.”

The company joined the fight against water shortages in the state of Maharashtra. It participates in
helping drought-affected villages identified by the state government for focused interventions aiming to
make them drought-free by 2019.

118
The village of Naiphad, located in Pune district and home to 500 residents, has suffered serious water
shortages in the past. Volkswagen India has now built a series of embankments (bunds) for water storage.
The bunds will increase water storage capacity by 7.5 million liters. Besides building two new reservoirs,
an old reservoir was repaired and the existing waterway cleaned up.

Doctors on wheels
In 2015, Volkswagen India started running a mobile health clinic in Kahnewadi Tarfe Chakan and
Sangurdi, two villages near the Pune site. The mobile clinic visits these locations five days a week,
spending three hours a day in each village. This enables around 2,200 people to receive basic medical
care. Previously, the medical provision was very poor as the villages had neither a primary healthcare
center nor a resident doctor – the nearest health center is some five kilometers away. Among the staff ‘on
board’ the clinic are two doctors and a nurse. Examinations and medications for minor health problems
are provided to patients free of charge. The service is also available to guests and others who visit the two
villages.

Since it was launched, Volkswagen India’s Mobile Health Clinic has provided medical consultations and
medicines to over 15,300 people, both adults and children. The team has also referred patients to nearby
hospitals for further medical consultation and/or hospital admission based on their condition.

Skilling young India for better jobs


Over two-thirds of India’s 1.2 billion population is under the age of 35 years. A significant percentage of
these young people are not job-ready. Skill development is therefore a national priority.

In 2011, Volkswagen India Academy introduced a 3.5-year dual education Mechatronics Apprenticeship
Program. Based on the German dual vocational education and training system, the program imparts

119
theoretical and practical knowledge across fields such as mechanical, electrical and electronic
engineering, as well as IT.

A unique feature of this program is its focus on recruiting academically bright students from local towns
and villages who are deserving of financial support. The students are provided with stipends for the
duration of the program. Volkswagen says it also endeavours to ensure that each new intake comprises at
least 25 percent female students. Three graduate year groups of students have successfully completed the
program and are now employed at Volkswagen. The sixth class cohort was enrolled in 2016.

Promoting safety on India roads

As part of its road safety initiative, Volkswagen India is supporting the setting up a Centralized Traffic
Control Centre in the police headquarters of Pune city. The Centralized Traffic Control will aim
minimizing response time in cases of accidents and emergency situations and provide flexibility in
management of traffic signals depending on traffic density at various times of the day.

CRM practices of TOYOTA MOTOR’S


Toyota’s success is a strategy that manages to straddle both manufacturing and non-manufacturing
environments. It’s one called Lean CRM, which was developed by Toyota in Europe, in response to
the growing volume of customer information collected at the many touch-points during the customer
lifecycle.

It has enabled Toyota to sell significantly more vehicles, with a shorter trade cycle and higher
repurchase rate, at significantly lower costs.

Customerpull
A typical European customer will own a new vehicle for three to eight years before replacing it.
Toyota’s process guides how different touch-points over the customer lifecycle are delivered and
how to employees should respond to customer-initiated touch-points and deliver Toyota-initiated
ones. This process starts when the customer is just thinking about buying a new vehicle, with
Toyota’s marketing. The marketing guides prospective buyers to the Toyota web site, where they can
learn more and request further information. Requesting information is an example of "customer pull,"
where Toyota responds directly to the customer. It is the first point at which the customer becomes

159
known to Toyota, and it triggers a check to see if Toyota already knows the customer. What the
company already knows about the customer guides how future touch-points to that customer are
delivered.

Toyota push
As Toyota guides the customer through the purchase process, the auto company uses what it knows
about the customer to provide just the right information that Toyota leadership thinks will help him
or her make the right choice. This is an example of "smart Toyota push." In addition to more vehicle
information, Toyota might send out a customized offer, maybe even a pre-approved credit offer if the
customer’s credit record with Toyota is good. Statistical models are widely used to help identify
which customers should have which information pushed to them. Where models are not available or
not appropriate, simple data analyses or Toyota best practices are used, instead.

It is this combination of pull and push that guides each customer step by step during the customer
lifecycle and toward the customer’s next purchase. It is the backbone of the lifetime conversation
between the customer and Toyota.

Customer DNA
The heart of Toyota’s Lean CRM is "Customer DNA." Just as real DNA influences how each
individual develops, looks and responds to his or her environment, Customer DNA controls

Training methodology/approach OF TOYOTA MOTOR’S


1. Train the trainer : create the Kean leadership organization
 Selected people go through intensive TPS training at consulting division and
become TPS trainer or mentor.
 Then, the TPS trainer train the managers and supervisors the lean principles and
tools and also their jobs and responsibilities.

2. Develop the managers and the leaders: They are not only responsible for the safety,
quality, delivery, and cost but also for ensuring TPS training and developing their
employees and for the integrity of TPS in the workplace. Over time, they are trained
in the following: the role of a supervisors, job instructions, standardized work,
principles of JIT, problem solving techniques, kaizen.

3. Orientation: The new employees go through an orientation period (a week) where they
learn in detail about TPS. The TPS training is done in a classroom environment. They
learn about: production system, kanban, team work, kaizen, safety, attendance,
housekeeping, quality principles, competition in the auto industry, etc. Then, every topic
is followed by a practical exercise on the shop floor or office environment, depending on
the position of the new employee.
This is done to demonstrate that the participants learned what they were supposed to
learn.

4. Apprenticeship: Managers and supervisors train the new employee on the job, following
the orientation. Every employee works on the job he/she was hired for alongside the
trainer or the group leader.

179
For a period of up to two months, the new employee has this trainer assigned to ensure that the
job is

performed exactly as intended, while gaining the deep knowledge, of the basic TPS
principles (team building, takt time, one-piece flow, kanban and pull, cost drivers, jidoka,
problem solving methodologies, seven types of waste, kaizen, the three rules of Just-In-
time (produce what the customer needs, in the right quantity, at the right time). So, you
see the huge importance placed upon training at all levels, on coaching and mentoring
and on discipline at all levels

Employee safety mechanism in TOYOTA.


As part of mental health support activities, we have in place a system to offer early consultation through a
health related hotline. Other activities include upgrading our self-care/line-care education to prevent new
cases of mental health problems and operation of a return-to-work support program for persons on long-
term leave for prevention of relapses. We have successfully achieved positive results through these
activities.

Under the stress check system introduced in fiscal 2017, we again conducted a check on all associates in
fiscal 2020. As in the previous fiscal year, we fed back the check results to all participants and
workplaces with suggestions for improvement. We also set up an individual interview with a doctor for
those wishing to do so and provided improvement support as necessary to individual workplaces

As a means to feed back the results to workplaces, we operate an IT-based workplace check results
viewing system that allows the users to perform a precise search of results and tips for improvement. In
fiscal 2020, we started providing the results of associate awareness surveys and related improvement
examples on the same system, allowing individual workplaces to analyze their respective conditions from
a multifaceted viewpoint and voluntarily engage in improvement activities.

Human resources policy of TOYOTA


In order for an organization to truly develop a culture similar to Toyota’s, the organization should
consider implementing the following important HR practices

180
1. Define the competencies (behaviours/traits) employees must have, (e.g., teamwork, attention to
quality, work pace, work ethic, continuous improvement, problem solving ability, job fit
motivation, communication, integrity)
2. Hire only people who have those competencies
3.  Provide lean systems and training for all employees. Encourage high performance by
communicating the value and including it in your performance management system.
4. Coach and then remove those individuals who refuse to embrace your high performance culture.

Performance appraisals of TOYOTA


At Toyota, an employee up to and including plant manager is measured on twenty different aspects.
Actually, the evaluation is done three times. The employee evaluates himself independently of the
evaluation of his supervisor. When discussing the evaluations, both have to agree on a joint
evaluation, and only this joint evaluation is then used for the promotion of the employee.

181
1. Physical Skills on the Shop Floor: Can the employee handle the work with respect to takt time
and quality? This also includes if the worker calls for help without delay if he needs help. Again,
please note that this is used even for plant managers, hence plant managers are also evaluated on
how well they work with their hands. Although it may very well be that for higher-ups, past
evaluations were recycled without verifying if the plant manager still can assemble cars.
However, since every person at Toyota starts out with a few months of assembling cars, the plant
manager at Toyota probably knows the work better than most comparable plant managers in
Europe and the USA.

2. Quality on the Shop Floor: Can the employee maintain quality? Does he see if the quality differs?
Is his hand movement suitable for quality? Again, even the plant manager is evaluated on this.

3. Kaizen: Is the employee actively involved in the continuous improvement process (kaizen)? Does
he generate ideas and are these useful?

4. Documentation: Is the employee good at documentation? Does he know the documentation


sheets, and does he fill them out properly? Toyota uses many sheets to track quality, productivity,
safety, kaizen, and other things, and almost all of these sheets are filled out by the employees by
hand to be verified and commented on by the managers, also by hand.

5. Big Picture View: Does the employee know how the targets for his work are derived from the
higher level targets? How do his targets contribute to the higher-level targets?

6. Leadership: Can the employee make the most out of the different skills of his team?

1. Can he help his subordinates and his team to grow? Can he help to foster the generation of
improvement ideas?

2. Problem Solving: Is the employee good at problem solving? Does he contribute to quality
circles, etc.?

3. Cooperation with Support: Does the employee work together well with support functions
that help him in his work?

4. Cooperation with Management: Does the employee work together well with
management?

5. Outside-the-Box Thinking: Does the employee look beyond the scope of his own
assignments? Does he get ideas from outside of his own workplace? Is he interested in or

182
aware of benchmarks? Does he read news or articles (e.g., on IT, robotics, or other
topics)?

Wages and salaries of TOYOTA MOTOR’S

Products Produced Department

This Department is responsible for carrying out all the assembly operations. This
department is further sub Divided into some of the parts as per different assembly lines
such as Hydraulics Assembly line, Transmission line, Pre-painting line. Paint kitchen,
Post painting line, PDI etc.

 Maintenance department

For regular & preventive maintenance of machines & any other equipment used for assembly
this Department provides its services.

 Purchase Department

This department is responsible for all the incoming material brought in that is used in regular
production.

204
Quality Maintenance Department

This department is responsible for overall Quality Control of the incoming components
and Assurance about the Quality of the Tractor to the customer. This department is
further divided into Sub-Departments, which is discussed separately later on. Quality can
be defined as ‘fitness for use when we talk of quality it means that product should be fit
for Use and it is the user who judges and decides what qualities he wants in the product.

The quality characteristics can be grouped into 4 categories:

1. Quality of design
2. Quality of conformance
3. Availability
4. Customer service

1. Quality of design

The design must meet all the requirements of the customer. If he wants a motor of say 5 HP. you
can't design your motor for 4.5 HP. The designer should aim at a design which fulfills all the
qualities, or almost all the qualities desired by the customer. He should also make a product,
which would become more competitive.

2. Quality of conformance
The degree or extent to which a product actually conforms to in accordance with the
specification and Drawing is called the Quality of Conformance.

3. Availability

205
This includes such characteristics as reliability, maintainability and length of life. All these
indicate as to what extent the product will be available for use.

4. Customer Service

This includes the extent to which customer can get assistance from the manufacturer or to keep
the product in continuous use.

The quality policy of Eicher tractor is to design, develop, manufacture and service products
of such quality which ensure the customer satisfaction, this is achieved through.

 Continuously identifying customers’ needs communicating the same within the


organization.

 Focus on design for reliability, case of manufacture and cost effectiveness.

 Production and delivery of zero defect products of competitive prices in the model mix
required by the Customers.

 Timely and responsive service after sales.

Turnover of TOYOTA MOTOR’S used


Toyota motor’s corporation report FY 2020 net income at 2.07 trillion yen, up 10.2% Japanese
car major TOYOTA MOTOR’S corporation has announced its financial results for FY 2019-20.
Which saw the company consolidated vehicle sales totals 8958423 decrease of 18372 unit
compared to the previous fiscal year.

Above picture is the worldwide location of TOYOTA plant.

207
Inventory management of TOYOTA MOTOR’S
 Just -in- time (JIT) inventory management, also known as lean manufacturing
and sometimes referred to as the TOYOTA production system (TBS)
 IT is an inventory strategy that manufacturers use to increase efficiency. The
process involves ordering and receiving inventory for production and customer
sales as it needed to produce good and not before.
 This types of inventory management provide many benefits but not without its
downsides and relies heavily on factors such as strong, fast and efficient network
of suppliers.
 Ordering inventory on an as-needed basis means that the company does not hold
any safety stock, and it operates with continuously low inventory levels. 

  This strategy helps companies lower their inventory carrying costs, increase efficiency, and
decrease waste. 
 JIT requires manufacturers to be very accurate in forecasts for the demand for their products.

 Toyota and JIT manufacturing will succeed as long as the company maintains a steady production
rate, with high-quality workmanship and no machine breakdowns at the plant that could stall
production.
  Additionally, it needs reliable suppliers that can always deliver parts quickly, and the ability to
efficiently assemble machines that put together its vehicles.

208
 Toyota started using JIT inventory controls in the 1970s and took more than 15 years to perfect
its process.
 Toyota sends off orders to purchase production parts only when it receives new orders from
customers.

Here all above points is related to inventory management of TOYOTA due to which we
can get the clear and perfect picture In mind that how the Toyota take care of their
inventory and manage efficiently.

Layout used by TOYOTA MOTOR’S


 Process and Capacity Design OPERATION DESIGN PROCESS ANALYSIS Toyota uses segmented
assembly lines with one piece flow production workstations and as a result delivery times have been
shortened.
 LAYOUT DESIGN Work cell layout is used by Toyota for production efficiency. They focus on
assembling of parts so that the layout assembles fabricated parts together suing many different
machines that are arranged around the production.
 LAYOUT DESIGNB AND STRATAGIES OLD STANDARD LAYOUT FOR TOYOTA PLANTS.

Diagram of production system in TOYOTA MOTOR’S

 TPS (Toyota production system) is widely-used and successful production system in manufacturing
that focuses on reducing and eliminating waste, while producing quality products for consumers.

 The TPS model was developed by the Toyota Motor Corporation for their vehicle production system,
but the principles and activities it encompasses can be applied to nearly any industry.

 When discussing the TPS and its many features, it can be helpful to think of the system like a house.
The “house” of the Toyota Production system is built upon a strong and stable foundation, has two
main pillars, with the overarching goal of TPS as the tip of the house.

 The pillars of the house are also considered the basis of Lean manufacturing. Turning concepts into
practice.

The pillars of TPS

 The first main pillar is the idea of just-in-time manufacturing. This emphasizes three main practices:
continuous flow, Tact time, and a pull system.
 The idea of JIT manufacturing is to implement a production method that emphasizes the minimization
of waste and workers being able to operate efficiently. Instead of producing items as you have the
materials, certain steps of the production phase shouldn’t start until an order trigger it.
 A pull system, usually a Kanban method, is designed to signal when an action is supposed to happen.

 Implementing a Kanban system works to keep the factory from overproduction. Certain processes and
steps in the manufacturing process will only begin when a worker receives a specific signal. By doing
so, unnecessary inventory will not be created, and bottlenecks will be reduced.
 Tact time, another strategy used in just-in-time manufacturing, ensures the rate of manufacturing
between stations is.
 The equation used to calculate Takt time is T = Ta ÷ D. The T represents Takt time, Ta represents the
total available production time, and D represents the rate of customer demand. By finding the Takt
time, you will know how much time it should take to produce each product in order to meet customer
demand

212
 The second pillar is Jidoka, often referred to as autonomation, meaning automation with human touch
or human intelligence.
 This process essentially refers to the use of machines or equipment to alert workers of a problem with
a process before more resources are wasted.
 TPS focuses largely on building a culture that emphasizes stopping to fix problems as they arise in
order to get quality from the start.
 A main principle of this is the idea that in the case of abnormalities, machines should stop, and
workers should be notified of what went wrong. 
 The pillars of the Toyota Production System are built upon a stable foundation of standardized work
and continuous improvement.
 The goal of using the strategies of Toyota and Lean manufacturing, like Kanban, Takt time, and
Andon lights, is to create high quality products at the lowest cost to the manufacturer with the shortest
lead time. 
 Eliminating wastes and ensuring the product will meet customers’ expectations are the name of the
Lean manufacturing game.

Here above all points related to production system used in TOYOTA MOTOR’S

Quality assurance of TOYOTA MOTOR’S

until our vehicles come off the line, quality is key at Toyota.

The people who build our vehicles take a personal pride in the quality of their work. Every vehicle will
undergo thousands of quality checks in the course of the manufacturing process.
