ORGANIZATION STUDY ON ACC CEMENT WADI

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

This is an attempt to know how the theories can be applied to practical situations. As a
student of an MBA, it is a part of study for everyone to undergo an Internship at some
good organization. As a part of the curriculum, I have undergone an Internship at ACC
CEMENT FACTORY. It is more important for a PG student to know both theoretical and
practical applications in real situations.
This organization study made me know about the actual functioning and different
departments in the organization.

Goals indicate what a business unit wants to achieve; Strategy is an action plan for getting
the goals. Every business must design a strategy for achieving its goals, consisting of a
marketing strategy, a compatible technology strategy, and a sourcing strategy.
The internship study helped me to know more about the policies or products of ACC
CEMENT FACTORY, their workflow, and the ownership pattern of the company. The
organization structure involves a formal and recognized structure where every individual
and group has a definite relationship with each other.
I studied the theoretical aspects of the management principles in the classroom. However
here at ACC CEMENT FACTORY .I could learn the applications of the principles I learn
how the principles are applied and implemented in the organization. The internship is an
organizational study. It is aimed at the seeking information from a various department, its
history ,nature of business,vision,mission,policies,procedures,services,turnover,etc
It was a great opportunity for me to go internship physically and how organization has
coordinated its departments and in providing the timely and comfortable services to public
and hands on experiences in the organization has become a value addition in my MBA
curriculum.

ORGANIZATION STUDY ON ACC CEMENT WADI

2.1 BACKGROUND

ACC was formed in 1936 when ten existing cement companies came together under
one umbrella in a historic merger – the country’s first notable merger at a time when the term
mergers and acquisitions was not even coined. The history of ACC spans a wide canvas
beginning with the lonely struggle of its pioneer F E Dinshaw and other Indian entrepreneurs
like him who founded the Indian cement industry. Their efforts to face competition for
survival in a small but aggressive market mingled with the stirring of a country’s nationalist
pride that touched all walks of life – including trade, commerce and business.

The first success came in a move towards cooperation in the country’s young cement
industry and culminated in the historic merger of ten companies to form a cement giant.
These companies belonged to four prominent business groups – Tatas, Khataus, Killick
Nixon and F E Dinshaw groups. ACC was formally established on August 1, 1936. Sadly, F
E Dinshaw, the man recognized as the founder of ACC, died in January 1936. Just months
before his dream could be realized.

F.E. Dinshaw – the founder of ACC


ACC stands out as the most unique and successful merger in Indian business history,
in which the distinct identities of the constituent companies were melded into a new cohesive
organization – one that has survived and retained its position of leadership in industry. In a
sense, the formation of ACC represents a quest for the synergy of good business practices,
values and shared objectives. The use of the plural in ACC’s full name, The Associated
Cement Companies Limited, itself indicates the company’s origins from a merger. Many
years later, some stockbrokers in the country’s leading stock exchanges still refer to this
company simply as ‘The Merger

DEPARTMENT OF MANAGEMENT STUDIES, VTU CPGS, KALABURGI Page 8


ORGANIZATION STUDY ON ACC CEMENT WADI

Over the years, ACC realized that people are as different as they are similar. Different
needs, different lives, different dreams. With its depth of knowledge and width of experience
ACC, today, is poised to fulfil the hopes and aspirations of people across the length and
breadth of the country.

Cement is a key infrastructure industry. India is one of the top 11 producers of cement
in the world. The first cement company was established in Madras in1904. However, in 1912
– 13 three unit of ACC were established at Porbandar in Gujarat and other two at Kavita
Madhya Pradesh and Lakheri in Rajasthan with total installed capacity of 14000 tones per
annum. Currently India is ranked second in the world with an installed capacity of 114.2
million tones.

At present cement industry is more than 94-year-old. During the first half of the
century India was plagued by in the year 1961 on 24th May, cement manufacturing
Association (CMA) was formed in India. The period during 1982-1985 was boom period for
industry. By 1992 it has attained fourth position among the cement producing countries,
behind the USA, China and Japan the year 1990-1992 was best for the cement producers. But
in 1992-1993, it has bad fortunes the demand for cement was 8% in1991 declaimed to zero in
1992-1993.

The cement has been decontrolled from price and distribution on 1st March, 1989 and
deli on 25th July, 1991. However, the performance of the industry and prices of cement are
monitor regularly. The constraints faced by the industry are reviewed in the Infrastructure
Coordination Committee meetings held in the Cabinet Secretariat under the Chairmanship of
Secretary. The Cabinet Committee on Infrastructure also reviews its performance.

2. 2 NATURE OF BUSINESS STUDIES


It is true that individuals seek satisfaction in their jobs in the context of job nature and
work environment by their also attach importance to opportunities for promotion that these
job offer. If the present job offers opportunity of promotion is lacking, it reduces satisfaction.
Determination of job satisfaction according to Abraham K korman there are two types of
variables which determine job satisfaction of an individual there are
1. Organization variable

2. Personal variable

1. Organization variable

Occupational level : the higher level of the job, the greater of the satisfaction individual this
is because higher level jobs carry prestige and self control.
2. Job content:- greater the variation in the job content and the less repetitiveness with
which the task must be performed, the greater is the satisfaction of the individual involved.
3. Considerate leadership :- people like to be treated with consideration. Hence
considerate leadership results in higher job satisfaction than inconsiderate leadership.
4. Pay and promotional opportunities:- all other things being equal these two variable are
positively related to job satisfaction.
5. Work group: -having friendly co – operative co –workers is a modest source of job
satisfaction to individual employees. The working groups also serve as a social support
system of employees. People often used their co-worker as sounding board for their problem
of as a source comfort.

The raw materials needed to produce cement (calcium carbonate, silica, alumina, and
on orejare generally extracted from limestone rock, chalk, shale, or clay. These raw materials
are quarry by either extraction or blasting. These naturally occurring minerals are then
crushed through a milling process.

At this stage, additional minerals are added to ensure the correct chemical
composition for making cement. These minerals can be obtained from the waste or by -
product of other industries, such as paper ash. Milling produces a fine powder knows as raw
meal, which is preheated and then sent to kiln for further processing.

DEPARTMENT OF MANAGEMENT STUDIES, VTU CPGS, KALABURGI Page 12


ORGANIZATION STUDY ON ACC CEMENT WADI

The kiln is at the heart of the manufacturing process. Once inside the kiln the raw mill
is boated around 1500 degrees C..A similar temperature to that of molten lava at this
temperature, chemical reactions takes place to form cement clinker, which contains hydraulic
calcium silicates. in order to heat the materials to this very high temperature, at 2000 degrees
C flame is required , which can be produced through the use of fossil and waste drived fuels.
the kiln itself is angled by 3 degrees to the horizontal to allow the material to pass through it
over period of 20-30 minutes.upto exiting the kiln , the clinker is cooled and stored ready for
grinding , to produce cement.

A small cement of gypsum (3 percent to 5 percent) is added to the clinker to regulate


how the cement will get set the mixture is then very finely ground to obtain pure cement
during this phase, different materials, called " additions may be added along the side gypsum.
Use in varying proportions, these additions, which are of natural or industrial origin, give a
cement specific property, such as reduce permeability. Greater resistance to sulfates and
aggressive environments. Improve work ability, or higher quality finishes.

Finally, the cement is stored in silos before being shipped in bulk or in bag to the sites
where it will be used.

PRODUCTION PROCESS:

what is the cement production process? The cement production process is also called
the cement manufacturing process, cement making process, directly decide the cement
equipment of cement production line, and investment and production scale.
In general, a full cement production process includes the stone crushing, raw mill process,
clinker process, and cement grinding process, cement packing process, and related process.

The Portland cement manufacturing process is representative of all types of cement.


limestone and clay are the main raw materials of cement making, the cement raw materials
will be processed into a raw meal by crushing, batching, grinding. Feeding raw meal into
cement kiln to make clinker, the clinker, and some mixed materials will be ground together
by cement grinding plant, the finished cement will be done.

1. Cement raw material preparation: Limestone is main raw materials for cement
manufacturing, and most cement plants are located next to the quarry to reduce the
transportation cost; Using explosion or getter loader to mine raw materials; sending

DEPARTMENT OF MANAGEMENT STUDIES, VTU CPGS, KALABURGI Page 17


ORGANIZATION STUDY ON ACC CEMENT WADI

raw materials to the cement crusher to crush or hammer; crushed raw materials are
stored to prevent from environment and dusting.

2 Raw meal: In the raw meal working site, the raw materials are processed by the raw
mill to ensure the high-quality mixing; cement ball mill and cement vertical mill are
generally used in the raw meal process; the finished raw meal are finally sent to the stacker
and reclaimer for storage and further mixing.

3 Clinker production: The diameter of the clinker ball must between 0.32 and 5.0cm. There
are three steps of the high-temperature system: Drying or preheating, calcining, and sintering.
The calcining is the core part of the clinker production; the raw meal is weighed and sent into
preheater and cement kiln to process clinker. Grate cooler helps to cooler clinker, the cooled
clinker is sent to the cement silo for storage. After cooling, the clinker can be transported on

ORGANIZATION STUDY ON ACC CEMENT WADI

the conveyor belt and can regenerate up to 30% of its heat. Cooling air from the clinker is fed
into the rotary kiln, which is conducive to fuel combustion. Clinker storage capacity can be
based on the market, and a cement plant usually stores 5-25% of the annual clinker
production.

4 Cement grinding: The clinker is taken from the clinker silo and sent to the feed bin where
it is mixed with gypsum and additives before entering the cement grinding plant. In the
cement grinding process, the clinker is ground to a fine powder along with other materials, up
to 5% gypsum or additional anhydrite is added to control the solidification time of the
cement,and other compounds are added, such as compounds used to regulate fluidity or gas
content.

DEPARTMENT OF MANAGEMENT STUDIES, VTU CPGS, KALABURGI Page 19


ORGANIZATION STUDY ON ACC CEMENT WADI

5 Cement packing and shipping: Finished cement will be stored in the cement silo, and
the cement packing plant will help to bag it as requested. Cement can be delivered in bulk
to the customer in trucks or wagons, or bagged and delivered in standard ries.

DEPARTMENT OF MANAGEMENT STUDIES, VTU CPGS, KALABURGI Page 20

Types of cement production process

As for the cement production process types, based on different raw meal production
processing, we can divide the cement production process into dry process of cement (include
Semi-dry process of cement) and wet process of cement ( include Semi-wet process of
cement).

Dry process of cement

There are two methods to choose, drying and grinding the cement raw materials at the same
time; or dry cement raw materials firstly, then grind them into raw meal. The raw meal will
be sent into cement kiln to calcine clinker.

The semi-dry process of cement also belongs to the dry process of cement, add certain water
into raw meal powder to make raw meal ball, which will be sent into the vertical kiln to
process cement clinker.

The main advantage of dry process cement production is low heat consumption, it’s
advantages include non uniformity of raw meal, dusting, high power consumption.

Wet process of cement

The proportioned raw materials and water are ground into cement raw slurry, and sent into
wet process kiln to calcine clinker.

The semi-wet process of dehydrating raw slurry, making raw meal block, and then calcining
in the kiln can also be classified as wet-process cement production. Drying and grinding
dehydrated raw materials and send them into precalciner, this process is generally known as
wet grinding dry burning.

It has advantages of easy to homogenize raw meal, uniform composition, high and stable
quality of clinker, low power consumption, less dust. The disadvantages include high energy
consumption of the clinker, low production efficiency, and it tends to be replaced by a new
dry process cement production.

2.8 FUTURE GROWTH AND PROSPECTIVE

Cement industries constitutes an important segment of the modern industrial economy


of India. Cement is one of the highly capital-intensive industries unlike most other mineral
based industries. Location of cement plants is widely spread throughout the country where
the availability of the basic raw materials like limestone. Limestone concentration is more in
the southern region. One of the most important developments immediately after the
independence was Indian standard specification for Portland cement by the Indian Standard
Institute in 1947. The installed capacity of the industry rose to 2.2 million tonnes per annum.
On partition 5 of the cement producing units went to Pakistan and the total installed capacity
of 18 units that remained in India was 1.5 million tonnes per annum. In 1951 for the first-time
target of the cement production were planned as a part of the first Five-year plans. As a
result, the production of cement increased from 2.69 million to 4 million tonnes. By the end
of the first Five-year plan were about 27 units with a capacity about 5 million tonnes.
Presently in India there are 57 cement companies with total of 120 plants. The total
manpower employed is 135000.

However, cement consumption per capita in our country at about 99-kg/ capita is one
of the lowest. The world average is about 267 kg/capita. While that of China is 450
kg/capita.

Similarly in Japan it is 631 kg/capita while in France it is 447 kg/capita.

Excess capacity and slower-than-expected demand growth have dimmed prospects for
a second hike in Indian cement prices this month, analysts said, dampening hopes that had
driven producers' shares higher. Prices in India's western region, which accounts for the
biggest market, have risen by a modest Rs 4 to Rs 158 per 50 kg bag in the past two weeks.

"The rise has not been as much as expected because of oversupply and The big four
are Larsen & Toubro Ltd, Associated Cement Cos, Grasim Industries Ltd and Gujarat
Ambuja Cements Ltd.

Earlier this month, Merrill Lynch forecast a hike of seven rupees per bag by
December 12, followed by another increase 10 days later. Adequate pick-up in demand," said
Sanjay Ladiwala, president of Cement Stockists and Dealers Association of Bombay.

DEPARTMENT OF MANAGEMENT STUDIES, VTU CPGS, KALABURGI Page 27


ORGANIZATION STUDY ON ACC CEMENT WADI

Shares in India's four biggest cement companies rose between 10 and 33 per cent
between mid-November and their peaks in December in anticipation of a sharp price hike, but
have since fallen.

Export
Apart from meeting the entire domestic demand, the industry is also exporting cement

TECHNOLOGY LEVEL
The output of cement various type may reach the 200 million tonnes mark by the year
2010 and the growth may be at a faster rate even with a doubling of per capital consumption.
It is therefore necessary that greater attention is paid to the up gradation of technology for
manufacturing different type of cement. . In cement manufacturing is one of the fastest,
probably next to the electronics industry. Unless the industry keeps pace with changing
technology, it is very difficult to stay ahead in the present day. Competitive environment in
terms of quality, commercial viability and demanding ecological factors.

At present ninety three percent of the total capacity in the industry is based on modern
and environment-friendly dry process technology and only seven percent of the capacity is
based on old wet and semi-dry process technology. One project for co-generation of power
utilizing waste heat in an Indian cement plant is being implemented with Japanese assistance
under Green Aid Plan. The induction of advanced technology has helped the industry
immensely to conserve energy and fuel and to save materials substantially. India is also
producing different varieties of cement like Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC), Portland
Pozzlona Cement (PPC), Portland Blast Furnace Slag Cement (PBFS), Oil Well Cement,

five forces model looks at five specific factors that determine whether or not a business can
be profitable in relation to other businesses in the industry
Porter's five forces include three forces from 'horizontal competition' – the threat of
substitute products or services, the threat of established rivals, and the threat of new entrants
– and two others from 'vertical' competition – the bargaining power of suppliers and the
bargaining power of customers

learned many things in this project report, in today's market main purpose of cutthroat
competition between two parties. But, In market level competition is most important because
of their company reputation will be increased up to the target.
