ANALYSIS OF THE LOGISTICS SECTOR ECOSYSTEM


HIDELBERCEMENT PVT. LTD

Logistics function encompasses the coordination and management of the transfer of goods,
services, and information from the source to the destination. Its fundamental objective is to
plan, execute, and regulate diverse supply chain operations and procedures to achieve the
smooth and productive transportation of commodities.

“Having knowledge about the logistics ecosystem it is essential for professionals


working in the logistics sector to recognize the significance of document workflow and
its role in enhancing the overall process”

ROLE OF TECHNOLOGY -SAP (SYSTEMS APPLICATIONS &


PRODUCTS IN DATA PROCESSING)

The role of technology in a logistics unit is crucial and can have a significant impact on its
operations, efficiency, and overall performance. Here are some key roles and benefits of
technology in the logistics unit:

 Technology allows for the integration and connectivity of various systems and
platforms used within the logistics unit. This includes integration with enterprise
resource planning (ERP) systems, customer relationship management (CRM) systems,
and other supply chain management tools. Integration helps in sharing data,
automating processes, and ensuring seamless flow of information across different
functions and systems.
 It provides tools and platforms for improved collaboration and communication within
the logistics unit and with external stakeholders. It enables seamless information
sharing, coordination, and real-time communication between different teams,
suppliers, transportation partners, and customers. This facilitates better coordination,
reduces lead times, enhances customer service, and improves overall supply chain
responsiveness.
 Digitalization and Technology: The logistics sector is embracing digital technologies
such as cloud computing, IoT (Internet of Things), artificial intelligence, and
blockchain. These technologies improve visibility, tracking, efficiency, and data
analysis throughout the supply chain.

SAP is a one of the crucial aspects in a logistics function it may not be wrong to say that, it is
a backbone of the company. It has revolutionized business firms, industries, and
manufacturing hubs worldwide. It is now an integral part of every process in these industries.
The impact of SAP on business operations has been significant. It has improved efficiency
and performance across all industries. SAP has become essential for businesses to stay
competitive in the market.
The logistics functions at the Heidelberg Cement Jhansi plant are
categorized into 7 distinct stages, and each gate performs a crucial and
distinctive role to play.

GATE1– REGISTRATION

GE-1 (Gate Entry -1) This is first step where vehicle entry are being captured in SD module
of GE. Once truck reported at factory gate then the driver report at security window about his
vehicle number. The security personnel key in the truck no. at G1 in SAP if truck already a
part of past history then it maintained the master of the truck. If not then system will message
that truck entry not found. In this case firstly truck need to registered by logistics then only
G1 entry key in by security personnel. Thereafter once entry done in SAP then system will
temporarily register the truck, now truck allow for entry in Parking (within plant premises)

IN DEPTH -

The logistics process of the Heidelberg Cement Jhansi plant begins with GE-1 or Gate Entry-
1, as described in this passage. At this stage, security personnel record vehicle entries in the
SAP system's SD module at the factory gate. The driver provides the vehicle number to the
security personnel, who enter it into the system. If the truck is not already in the system, the
security personnel are prompted to register it in the logistics system before entering it into
SAP. Once registered in SAP, the truck can temporarily enter the parking area of the plant.

G-1is the plant's entry gate, where the truck enters for the first time. The driver provides the
vehicle ID number from their documentation to the personnel in the cabin, whose duty is to
register the vehicle for the first time upon its return to the plant after delivery. If the transport
details are present in the organization's system, the data is automatically captured when the
personnel input the number correctly into SAP.

GATE VECHILE LICENSE DRIVE TELEPHONE VECHILE VECHIL BILL


ENTRY I.D PLAT R TYPE E LANDING
N.O OWNER N.O

Actually this step of registration can become an important step in deed because when these
details are going to input in the system and the SAP going to publish a temporary GATE
ENTY N.O in his name. Then only driver is going to take its vehicle to the parking area.

Even after the whole dox like Bill of landing, Delivery information, and Safety of the vehicle
is received by the person then he punch a stamp of inward on the delivery order after that
when he received the call from the logistics department, then he calls the licence plate on
mice.

PARKING

This area designated in between G1 & G2, The areas are being used by all vehicle i.e.
Clinker, Cement, Others etc. The parking is having capacity of 80 vehicle where bay lane
defined to park vehicle in such a way so reversing may not happened. For the sack of safety
& plant norms reversal of vehicle not allowed inside plant premises. The safety of vehicle
also assessed or check by safety personnel. No vehicle allowed to move inside if truck is not
checked by safety. The identity of safety are being recorded & check in the way of physical
check of vehicle i.e. Vehicle condition, Dala condition, Mirrors, tyre pressure, indicators,
reverse horn etc. they also check the statutory requirement i.e. vehicle document & driver
document. The vehicle should be valid to load if pass all the safety check. If not then vehicle
not allowed & asked to mitigate the gap findings & come back. Then further recheck happen
to re-assess.
The safety personnel if found ok then seal & stamp on delivery note with his signature. This
will recall after every step to check either vehicle is check by safety or not. All security
personnel are authorised to do that. These all activity are being perform in parking itself.

In the area of parking, there is facility of driver canteen/mess, safety booth where
confectionary shop where in the free time the driver can avail facility of
canteen/mess/confectionary etc.

The safety PPE booth equipped with all mandatory PPE (Personnel Protective Equipment).
The PPEs issued to driver only truck found fit to load. without PPEs not driver can allow to
move inside for the loading. Even any kind of safety violation inside parking i.e., cooking
inside/under truck & drinking alcohol is serious offence where heavy penalty + disciplinary
action may take.

Parking is inside the Jhansi Plant and it can contains space of the parking area is upto 80
vehicles at a time. In between the G-1 and gate 2 the parking area remains in the middle .
When they gets the order they brings there vehicle outside the gate n.o 2. for further inquiry.

GATE 2 GATE ENTRY

The 2nd gate has its own significance in the plant because when the vehicle is called for the
loading by the gate no 1 in sequence manner then the only those tucks started to move from
the parking terminal.

at This stage, driver board down from the vehicle & get entry of document/vehicle in SAP at
G2 along with document details captured in register by security personnel. This stage also re-
check the vehicle by security. In SAP GE No. of the truck connected with Delivery no.

The SAP system updated the vehicle stage no. as G2. after giving clearance from G2 now
truck is ready to move for G3 (Tare weight).

The logistics functions are categorized into seven stages, with the second gate having a
significant role in the plant's operations. The gate is responsible for receiving delivery
instructions, bills of landing, and safety check documents from the driver, after which the
delivery number is filled, and the information is displayed on the gate personnel's screen. The
delivery number is going to then merged with the gate entry no and the G-2 terminal provides
the green flag to start the transport. Here the delivery and the gate entry n.o get merged with
it, then It started showing the data in the different section of the SAP section .

GATE 3 TARE WEIGHT (WEIGHBRIDGE)


DEFINE –

Tare weight refers to the weight of the empty vehicle. The vehicle once boarded on WB,
driver step down & submit delivery document to WB person, who just verify the vehicle no.
from SAP then capture the vehicle tare weight in system. Closing the stage updated the
vehicle position as G3. Now vehicle move for loading areas for the product loading in the
truck.

. It represents the weight of the packaging materials, such as pallets, crates, or containers, and
any other equipment or components that are not part of the actual goods being transported.
Tare weight is typically measured and deducted from the gross weight of a loaded container
or vehicle to determine the net weight of the goods alone. From this gate of weighbridge, the
vehicle measures the weigt of the truck .

GATE 4 LOADING TERMINAL

Gate 4 is the most important stage of the logistics process at Heidelberg Cement India
Limited's Jhansi plant. This is where transport enters the loading section and cement bags are
loaded into trucks according to the order they were received. Half of the delivery order dox is
recorded in a register and kept by the loader staff, while the other half is given back to the
driver. All the bags are manually placed by the workers inside the truck by making racks of
different quantity of bags. Once all the bags are loaded, the truck proceeds to the next stage.
This stage is critical for the continuous flow of work and must be efficient to ensure that the
logistics process runs smoothly.

GATE 5 GROSS WEIGHT

Here at G5, Vehicle gross weight captured & then SAP system will check the tolerance limit
of weight loaded in the truck which match with delivery weight.

The term "weighbridge" typically refers to a weighing scale or platform used to measure the
weight of vehicles, goods, or materials. The gross weight, in the context of a weightbridge,
refers to the total weight of the vehicle or load being weighed, including the weight of the
vehicle and any additional attachments or equipment. weightbridge is a weighing scale or
platform used to measure the weight of vehicles, goods, or materials. It measures the gross
weight, which includes the total weight of the vehicle or load being weighed, including the
weight of the vehicle itself, any passengers or cargo, and any additional attachments or
equipment.

This gross weight is considered to the weight which was taken after the loading has been
done in vehicles then the Gross Weight is been subtracted with the Tare weight, then the Net
weight has been derived.

Although the SAP system includes a tolerance rate that aligns with industry standards, it is
still necessary to perform a gross weight measurement. Essentially, the tolerance rate pertains
to the allowable range of deviation in weight measurements obtained from a weighbridge. It
serves as a margin of error between multiple weighings of a load or object and is typically
determined by regulations, industry standards, or the weighbridge manufacturer. Adhering to
the tolerance rate prevents the rejection or delay of loads due to minor weight inconsistencies.

GATE 6 - POST GOODS ISSUE & BILLING DOX

Gate 6 is the main hub of all these above work flow, here the main work take place from the
making of the Delivery information to the attaching of Bill of Landing and also even the
orders are been transferred or provided to G-1 personal to releasing the transport accordingly,

Logistics unit works with the marketing team hand in hand, The marketer use to publish the
orders in the SAP so they creates the delivery order when there is a transport available in the
parking terminal.

Then they issue the D.I and another officer attaches bill of landing with the delivery and then
it is the Transporters duty to take them to the parking are over where a safety check dox is
been provided to the driver and he ticks all the given options after that the drivers trucks
paper were verified by the Personnel then further the all the G-1 , G-2, G-3 and more is going
to proceeds further.
Even though After the gross weight of the vehicles is done then the officers use to create 3
different dox which has been made by the officers who sits inside the cabin-:

1. E-way bill
2. Invoice
3. Stock transfer order

E-WAY BILL
An e-waybill, short for electronic waybill, is a digital document used to track and record the
movement of goods in transit. It is an electronic version of a traditional paper waybill or
consignment note. The e-waybill contains key information about the consignment, such as the
details of the shipper, consignee, description of goods, quantity, value, transportation mode, and
route.

These bills were created even when the dealer has ordered for more that 50,000 rupee of order
of cement .

These bills were created from the Government Portal for having the records and even taxes will
also be attached.

INVOICE
An invoice is a document that outlines the details of a transaction between a seller and a
buyer. It serves as a formal request for payment and provides information about the products
or services rendered, their quantities, prices, and any applicable taxes or discounts. Here's a
breakdown of the typical elements you might find in an invoice:
A. Header.

B. Seller's Information:

C. Buyer's Information

D. Itemized List

E. Subtotal

F. Taxes:

G. Discounts

H. Additional Charges:

I. Total Amount Due

J. Payment Terms

K. Seller's Contact Information

An invoice is a detailed document that outlines the specifics of a transaction between a buyer
and a seller. It typically includes the header with the invoice number, issue date, and due date
for payment. The seller's information, including their name, address, contact information, and
logo, is also included. The buyer's information, such as their name, address, and contact
details, is also included. The main body of the invoice is an itemized list of the products or
services provided, along with a brief description, quantity, unit price, and the total amount for
each item. The subtotal is the sum of all the item amounts before any additional charges or
taxes are applied. Taxes, discounts, and additional charges such as shipping costs or handling
fees are also listed separately. The total amount due is the sum of the subtotal, taxes, and any
additional charges. The invoice may also include payment terms, accepted payment methods,
late payment penalties, and any other relevant terms and conditions. The seller's contact
information is listed again at the end of the invoice for any questions or concerns.

Remember that the specific format and content of an invoice can vary depending on the
country, industry, and the preferences of the seller. It's essential to ensure that all necessary
details are included and that the invoice complies with any legal or regulatory requirements in
your jurisdiction.

STOCK TRANSFER ORDER


A Stock Transfer Order (STO) is a purchase order created to transfer the stock from the
receiving plant to the supplying plant. It is an intra-business method for moving products of
the same company code from one plant to another within the same company. The STO is
raised by the receiving plant and sent to the supplying plant1. When the receiving plant
receives the material, goods receipt takes place at the receiving plant1.
The corresponding transfer order contains the information the system
needs to carry out the movement of a specific quantity of material from
one place to another. These dox is created by the personals by using
SAP.

 STO is an intra-business method for moving products within the


same company code
 The receiving plant raises the STO and sends it to the supplying
plant
 Goods receipt takes place at the receiving plant upon material arrival
 The transfer order contains necessary information for material movement
 SAP is used by personnel to create these documents

GATE 7 GATE EXIT

Gate 7 is considered to be the last gate of this whole process. In this the personnel sitting in
his cabin he puts the delivery no in SAP it basically means that the delivery is ready to move
to its destination

He even marks the timing on the same stamp which is been marked by the gate no 1
personnel on D.O which denotes that the vehicle is ready to move.

PROBLEM IDENTIFICATION – ORDER DISTRIBUTION

Introduction:
The logistics ecosystem faces an identified problem concerning the current Transporters
coordination and documentation process at G-6.

This section focuses on 3 section where the inefficiencies in the communication and
documentation flow between transporters, personnel(officers), and the parking area.
Specifically, the problem lies in the time-consuming process of confirming orders, stapling
bill of landing numbers, and physically transferring documents from Gate 6 to the parking
area, resulting in delays and unnecessary waste of traveling time.

TIME-CONSUMING CONFIRMATION PROCESS:


One of the main problems identified is the lengthy process of verifying orders between the
transporters and personnel at Gate 6. Presently, the transporters act as representatives for their
designated delivery areas and rely on verbal communication with the personnel to confirm if
any orders have been made. This manual process of confirmation demands additional time
and effort, ultimately resulting in delays and possible misunderstandings. It is also a
exhaustion process, when he travels from G-1 to another 100 of times .

MANUAL DOCUMENTATION AND BILL STAPLING:


Another significant problem lies in the manual documentation process and bill stapling. Once
an order is confirmed, personnel at Gate 6 manually create the necessary delivery information
and staple the bill of landing number. This manual process is prone to errors, time-
consuming, and lacks efficiency. It creates unnecessary administrative work and increases the
chances of mistakes or discrepancies in the documentation.

PHYSICAL TRANSFER OF DOCUMENTS:


The current system requires the transporter to physically carry the documents, including the
delivery information and stapled bill of landing, from Gate 6 to the parking area. This process
involves unnecessary travel time and increases the risk of document loss or damage during
transportation. It also limits the real-time accessibility of information and slows down the
overall logistics process. Even the transporters have to brought the dox in the rainy season
which can damages these important dox which can prevent to become a stoppage for the
work flow of the plant.

PROPOSED SOLUTION: CABIN AND COMPUTER ASSIGNMENT:


To address these inefficiencies, it is proposed to establish dedicated cabins near the parking
area for the transporters. Each cabin should be equipped with a computer system assigned to
the transporter, enabling them to directly access and input necessary information. By
providing the transporters with immediate access to a computer, they can independently print
the delivery information within a few clicks, eliminating the need for manual confirmation
and stapling at Gate 6.

This solution will not only reduce the time-consuming confirmation process and physical
transfer of documents but also minimize the risk of errors in the documentation. The
proposed cabins will also provide a designated space for the transporters to wait, reducing the
congestion at Gate 6 and improving the overall workflow of the plant. Additionally, the
assigned computers can be used to track the movement of the vehicles and provide real-time
updates to the personnel, further enhancing the logistics operations. Overall, the proposed
solution of dedicated cabins and assigned computers is a practical and efficient method to
streamline the logistics functions and workflow of information at Heidelberg Cement India
Limited's Jhansi plant.

BENEFITS OF THE PROPOSED SOLUTION:


Implementing this solution offers several benefits.

Firstly, it reduces the time and effort required for order confirmation, documentation, and bill
stapling.

Secondly, by locating the transporters' cabins near the parking area, it eliminates the need for
physical document transfer, saves traveling time and reducing the risk of document loss or
damage.

Lastly, providing the transporters with their dedicated computer systems improves real-time
information accessibility and overall efficiency in the logistics ecosystem. All the process can
proceed with any physical encounter this whole process can conducted via Telephone . This
proposed solution can also help in streamlining communication between personnels who is
sitting in the G-6 and transporters. By having dedicated cabins and computers, it becomes
easier for both parties to communicate and coordinate effectively. Moreover, it can help in
reducing errors and discrepancies that can occur during the manual documentation process.
The real-time data available on the dedicated computers can help in identifying bottlenecks
and inefficiencies in the logistics process, allowing for timely interventions and
improvements.

This improvement helps the work flow most probably at the time of the bad weather (Rainy
season)

Overall, the proposed solution of establishing dedicated cabins and assigned computers near
the parking area can significantly improve the logistics operations at Heidelberg Cement
India Limited's Jhansi plant. It can enhance efficiency, reduce paperwork, save time, and
improve overall logistics operations.

CONCLUSION:
In conclusion, the logistics ecosystem faces inefficiencies in the transporter coordination and
documentation process at Gate 6. The time-consuming confirmation process, manual
documentation and bill stapling, and physical transfer of documents contribute to delays and
unnecessary travel time. By implementing the proposed solution of dedicated cabins and
assigned computers near the parking area, the logistics ecosystem can enhance efficiency,
reduce paperwork, save time, and improve overall logistics operations.

Furthermore, the implementation of this proposed solution can also lead to better
communication and coordination between the transporters and personnel, resulting in a
smoother workflow of information and operations. This can ultimately benefit the company's
bottom line by reducing costs and increasing productivity. Overall, the proposed solution is a
practical and effective way to address the inefficiencies in the logistics ecosystem at
Heidelberg Cement India Limited's Jhansi plant .
