INTRODUCTION

Inventory management occupies the most significant position in the structure of working

capital, Management of inventory may be defined as the sum of total of those activities necessary for

the acquisition, storage, disposal or use of materials. Inventory is one of the important component of

current assets. Inventory management is an important area of working capital management, which

plays crucial role in economic operation of the firm.

Every enterprise needs inventory for smooth running of its activities. It serves as a link between

production and distribution process. There is, generally, a time lag between the recognition of a need

and its fulfillment. The greater the time lag, the higher requirements for inventory. It also provides a

cushion for future price fluctuations.

In a complex industry like IVRCL Limited it studied clearly of how the thing are being

performed and what is the real impact of these on industry and how effectively the inventory is

utilized is interested to be known by researcher because of its great significance in the research.

Inventory can be referred to as sum of the value of raw materials fuels and lubricants, spare parts,

maintenance consumables, semi processed materials and finished goods, stock at any given point of

time.

In large companies inventory place a most significant part of the current assets. The business has

about 15 to 30% of inventories in total assets.

Inventory is composed of assets that will be sold in feature in the normal course of business

operations. The assets which firms stores as inventory is anticipation of need are raw materials,

work in progress and finished goods.

What is inventory?

- Inventory means stock of materials control means regulate or check

- Inventory (dictionary) meaning is list of stock goods.

- Scientific definition of inventory is idle recourse of any kind having

economic value.

- Inventory is detailed list of moveable goods which gives the quantity and

value of each items or moveable goods with quantity and value.

- From material management angle inventory is stock to meet future

demands of production, repairs, maintenance and construction.

- Inventory is defined as the sum of the value of (stock at any point of time)

a) Spare parts

b) Fuels & Lubricants

c) Consumables & Tools

f) Raw materials

g) Work in progress Inventory

- Inventory control basically deals with –

a) When would an order be placed (order level)

b) How much should be ordered (order quantity)

c) When to order

d) How much to keep in stock without effecting consumption

What is need of Inventory?

To improve inventory management techniques it is necessary to maintain inventory with minimum

investment (Blockage) but consistent with adequate service level.

Why control Inventory?

Materials account for 50% of the cash outflow of most organizations.

Inventories are the single largest asset in balance sheet in many companies.

The finance manager considers inventory as locked-up but the users always claims for more

capital, complaining of stock out.

Inventory has to be controlled in order to optimize the cost of acquiring the items.

An important factor to be considered in controlling the inventories is to reduce the lead-time

concept.

Application of scientific techniques in inventory control increases the morale of young

executives.

TYPES OF INVENTORY

1. AUTO INDENTING/STORES/ROL/ROQ ITEMS

This activity decides when inventory replacement is required and calculates inventory replacement

quantities. This category of

a) Regular consumption items

b) Fast moving items

c) Huge consumption annual movement items

d) Multi-user department items

e) Generally low value and low lead time items

2. SURPLUS INVENTORY

Items which do not have immediate use, but they have a usage in future. These items are in excess

of the unit’s storage norms and are not likely to be used within a reasonable period.

3 ZERO VALUE/CHARGED OUT ITEMS

Zero value items are items which have been returned by the user department or charged with new

equipment to stores. These items are reusable. The value was booked against first consumption.

Hence returned goods to stores do not carry any value. However, only the quantity should be

included in the stores ledger.

These items should be separately stored. The charge of the same should be considered only for

PARTA/Budgeting/MIS purpose.

- What is mean by Inventory Control?

Systematic procurement, location, storage and recording in such a way that desired degree of

services to operating shops at minimum ultimate cost.

3

4

- What is mean by large inventory?

a) Tie-up large amount

b) Deterioration

c) Damaged

d) Obsolesce

e) Increased overhead

When to control the inventory?

-

Positive approach is to control the inventory from beginning stage (procurement stage or PR stage).

- Inventory is harder to move with longer it sits

- Increase in 20% sale = Reduction in 5% inventory so our aim should be to

reduce the

- inventory.

- Inventory accounts are a) price (required negotiation) b) Service Level (% of

demand

fulfilling) c) Lead time (time required from feeling need to availability).

WHY ORGANIZATION CARRIES INVENTORY

Business constraints : Government regulations, monopoly of supplier minimum quantity to accept,

material availability in seasonal only. Transportation cost, once good will.

Buying in large quantities : Most of firms offer quantity discount of buying in large

Quantities.

Accuracy : Accuracy timeliness is critical factors, material control

activities, include determining needs.

Hedge against long : Organization carry inventory to protect against possible loss of

or uncertain lead time production against long and uncertain

lead time.

Safe guard against : If material is scarce-move stock is kept.

IVRCL LIMITED COMPANY:

In Words of Mr. E.Sudhir Reddy, Chairman & Managing Director:

Way back in 1987 when we formed IVRCL, the infrastructure industry in India was

in its infancy. We were clear in our minds then, that we did not intend to build just another

infrastructure company. We wanted to be different. The ‘also ran’ tag was certainly not for us.

Looking back, I can say, at the risk of sounding immodest, that we not only dreamed big, our

dream has always been different.

Confident of our competitive advantage, strong project management skills, excellent pre-

qualification credentials, integrated execution capabilities and high-quality human resources,

we will continue to lead the way.  But more than business success and growth, what we truly

welcome is the opportunity to improve the human condition. We continue to measure success

not by the figures we reach, but by the lives we touch. 

As India boldly moves forward to chart out its economic destiny, IVRCL is committed to be

being a partner in progress.  As always arousing hope and confidence by blazing new trails and

living up to our promise that WE MAKE IT HAPPEN!

MATERIAL MANAGEMENT

Definition: We can define materials management as the function responsible for the coordination

of planning, sourcing, purchasing, moving, storing and controlling materials in an optimum manner

so as to maintain possible economy in the project.

OBJECTIVE OF MATERIAL MANAGEMENT :

Primary Objective of materials management

2. Low Prices- to be lowest – includes transportation: enhances profit

3. Low cost acquisition and possession- reduced handling and storage costs.

4. Continuity of supply – alternative, captive suppliers, flexible suppliers

5. Low payroll costs- Low operation costs of stores personnel

6. Favorable supplier relations- supplier development.

Secondary Objective of materials management

1 .Economic make-buy-Coordinating and assisting other departments in Make-Buy

Decisions.

2 Interdepartmental Harmony- Success of materials management department depends on

the success of other departments. Hence relations are to be harmonious.

Materials Management Functions

1) Material Planning and programming : The Planning and controlling function are inventory

management, production planning and scheduling.

12

13

2) Purchasing And Outsourcing : This includes selection of source of supply, finalization of

terms of purchase, placement of purchase orders, follow-up, Maintenance of smooth relation

with suppliers, timely arrangement of payment to suppliers, evaluating and rating suppliers.

3) Stores & Warehousing : This Involves physical control of materials, preservation of stores,

minimization of obsolescence and damage through timely disposal and efficient handling,

maintenance of store records, proper location and stocking.

4) Codification: It is a process of representing each item by a number, the digit of which

indicates the group, the type and the dimension of the item.

5) Inspection & Quality Control: Inspection involves critical appraisal involving examination,

measurement, testing, gauging and comparison of materials with relevant standards and make

to suit our requirement.

6) Cost reduction through value analysis : Organized cost reduction analysis by which

accountants analyze costs in products or procedure, the ranking of their elements in a

descending order of magnitude and in informed challenge to each, starting with the most

important.

7) Disposal of surplus/ obsolete material: It means final placement or riddance of wastes,

excess, scrap etc., under proper process and authority with no intention to retrieve. Disposal

may be accomplished by abandonment, destruction, internment, incineration, donation, sale,

etc.

8) Distribution: Distribution means movement of goods and services from the source through

the distribution channel, right up to the final user.

13

14

INVENTORY CONTROL

A) To minimize idle time caused by shortage of inventory and non-availability of

inventories as per requirement.

B) To keep down capital investment in inventories, inventory carrying cost and

obsolescence losses.

C) Physical verification of inventory items.

CAUSES OF HIGH INVENTORIES AT KSLISP

A) Variety of equipments

B) Project surplus

C) High lead time/sources of supply are to for flung

D) Modification/improvement in design system

E) Obsolescence of machinery

F) Rate inflections (increased)

ABC Analysis is best tool to control the inventory which means –

- Avoid, Bluff, Confusion

- Always, Better, Control

If inventory is not controlled properly:-

- It is an idle resource

- It can wipe out due profit

- If effects quality (stock makes work careless handing)

- It is not buffer (thing to exchange)

- It is not an asset (properly to pay claim)

- It never optimized (wish or desired)

- It not only occupies space but also the mind

14

15

- It will not start earring

- It gathers dust

- Move inventory carrying cost is spend on it

SELECTIVE CONTROL

WHY SELECTIVE CONTROL?

Literally thousands of items are kept in inventory by various organization. Periodic

reviews of inventories of these items have to be under taken for effective inventory

control. The under-lying idea of such reviews is to keep stocks at a low but at the

same time keep the service percentage high. The problem is how to review such a

large number of items. Is it necessary to have the same type of control for each and

every item? An equally critical analysis of all items is very expensive and time

consuming. Selective control of items with references to particular function under

examination is the solution. Items should, therefore, be classified so that the more

important amongst them receive greater attention.

CLASSIFICATION METHODS

Various methods of classification are adopted as shown below:-

SELECTIVE INVENTORY CONTROL SYSTEM

Selective inventory control system means that we have various different methods of

inventory control from item to item and this differentiation should be on selective

basis. The importance of materials can be due to its cost, its criticality, its availability

and its consumption. There are a number of methods available for selective control of

a inventory. Selective control can be into eight types:

ABC Classification:

ABC Stands for always better control or avoid bluff confuse. This method is

based on annual consumption value, which is obtained by the multiplication of the

unit price by the annual consumption quantity. For example, on an adhoc basis, the

items accounting for an annual consumption value of more than Rs. (one) Lacs may

be classified as ‘A’ category and below Rs. 10000 may be the ‘c’ category and in

between these items will be the ‘B’ category.

‘A’ Items: are the top 10% of the items and accounts for 60% of the consumption

value.

‘B’ Items: are the next 30% of the items and accounts for 30% of the consumption

value.

‘C’ items: are the next 60% the items and accounts for only 10% of the consumption

value.

16

17

H.M.L CLASSIFICATION

H.M.L stands for:

H- High cost items (all unit cost)

M- Medium cost items (all unit cost)

L- Low cist items (all unit cost)

Unit value is the criteria in HML classification.

V.E.D CLASSIFICATION:

VED stand for

V- Vital

E- Essential

D- Desirable

S.D.E CLASSFICATION:

‘S’ scare items –which are not easily available in the market

‘D’ Difficult items-which are non available in the market

‘E’ Easy items- which are easily available in local market.

G.O.L.F CLASSIFICATION

G.O.L.F stands for

Government – open market – local market- foreign sources.

Materials are classified according to nature of suppliers.

F.S.N CLASSIFICATION

F-S-N stands for

‘F’ Fast moving items having consumption at least once in a year.

‘S’ slow moving consumption in alternative year.

‘N’ Non-moving consumption in least 5-6 years.

X.Y.Z CLASSIFICATION:

X Item is those items whose value is high while Z items are those items whose values

are low. Understandably Y items fall in between two categories.

17

18

S.O.S CLASSIFICATION

Some of items required are seasonal in nature and require special purchasing

and stocking strategies. Many commodities especially of agricultural origin and

seasonal in character have to be purchased at the best time. Operation research

techniques would have to be used to obtain optimum results. The inventory system

will have to balance between holding costs and lower prices at which it will be

available.

IMROVEMENT IN INVENTORY TURN OVER RATIO PROJECT

AN INTRODUCTION TO INVENTORY TURNS OVER RATIO:

Inventory turn over ratio is defined as the ratio of annual consumption value divided by average

inventory holdings. This ratio is also called efficiency indicator. Hence, higher the inventory turn

over ratio the better is financial out look and system is considered more efficient. There is

considerable scope for improvement in the sphere.

Inventory turn over ratio= Annul issues in Rupees. /Average inventory in Rs.

Express as percentage the ratio is to multiplied by hundred.

This ratio is called efficiency indicator

Case 1

Suppose an organization requires material worth Rs. 12 crores annually.

If purchased in 1 Lot and consumption is 1 crores per month.

Average inventory holding will be = 6.5 crores

Inventory turn over ratio will be 2 approximate.

Case 2

Suppose an organization requires material worth Rs. 10 crores annually.

If purchased in 2 Lots and consumption is 1 crores per month.

18

19

Average inventory holding will be = 2.5crores

Inventory turn over will be 4 approximate

In second case capital locked up has reduced from 5 to 2.5crores and inventory turn over ratio

increased to 4 from 2.

It shows in second case released capital becomes available and organization has

a) Borrow less capital.

b) Less interest charges

c) Fewer inventories carrying cost

Hence, higher the ITOR the better is financial out look and system is more

efficient.

How to improve inventory turn over ratio.

A. Efficient reduction of inventories.

B. Discourage flabby inventory due to poor maintenance.

C. Discourage Profit-making inventory held with speculative.

D. Reduction in critical & non-critical items lying in stock since long

period.

E. Identification of obsolete/ surplus items and their disposal/utilization.

ITOR in most of industries in India is around = 2

Most efficient one in India is around =3

ITOR in abroad-developed countries is between 6 to 8.

Our target for FY, 2006-07 is => 4

PURCHASE MANAGEMENT

The Purchase is a main activity in the area of Materials Management. It is the most important

function in any organization this is the place where money is spent out of the Organization .it

decides the profitability of the company. It is studied that one percent saved in the purchase

function improves the profit of the company as mach as 2 to 3 percent.

PRINCIPLES OF PURCHASE

Principles of Purchasing can be called by “7Rs”. They are as follows:

1) Buying the materials at right price.

2) Buying materials of right quality.

3) In the right quantity.

4) At the right time.

5) From the right source.

6) At the right place.

7) With right mode of transport.

PURCHASE SYSTEMS:

We can classify the systems in the following manner:

1. Pre-Purchase system;

2. Ordering system;

3. Post-Purchase system.

ENTERPRISE RESOURCE PLANNING

ERP stands for enterprise resource planning. It is a software solution that helps

companies to gain competitive edge by in integrating all business process and optimizing the

resource available.

The traditional application system treats each transaction separately. It is built around

strong boundaries of specific function that they are meant to cater to. ERP stops treating

these transaction separately as stand alone activities and consider them to be part of inter

linked processes that make the business. An ERP system stores data generated as a result of

diverse transaction that are confined to any departmental or functional boundaries, but are

rather integrated to be used by multiple user, for multiple purpose and at multiple places.

ERP should not be mistaken as a magic tool that can transform anything overnight. Its

successful implementation is a long journey towards enterprise excellence. To support such a

diverse system, companies need sophisticates information technology infrastructure and other

important enabling tools like workflow, workgroup, Groupware, internet, intranet, Data ware

housing etc, these entire components together from ERP backbone.

ERP SYSTEM IN IVRCL LIMITED

Today business is become an ever-changing phenomenon due to Large-scale

production facilities, new product development, technology up gradation, sales strategy,

22

23

capacity utilization, capacity expansion changing business scenarios, mergers & acquisitions

and opening of economics. These increasing business complexities warrant fast response,

which in turn requires data. The organization needs to proactive and plan ahead of time. To

do business optimization, IVRCL on hand requires tools such as extended ERP including and

Visual Fox Pro application, and on the other hand, needs to change itself to a learning

organization focusing on its people, skills core competency culture and practices.

INVENTORY & ACCOUNTS PAKAGES IN IVRCL LTD:

In IVRCL LTD., Company follows the Inventory and Accounts Packages like SAP

model. It is totally design on Visual Fox Pro software.

In this package inventory have so many options which are related to materials transaction.

1. Masters

2. Transactions

3. Reports

4. Accounts Approval

5. Physical Verification

6. Utility

7. System Controls

8. Change F.Y (Finance Year)

9. Log off

10. Exit

23

24

In this each have different fields.

Masters: In Masters Options we have Unit of Materials like Nos., Kgs, MT, Pkt,

Roll, Lots, Bags, Ltrs, Cum, Cufts & Mtrs. Here one can select the materials unit as

per the type of description of material. In Masters Option Materials are classified into

two types one is Consumable & other is Assets. In IVRCL Company materials are

taken in digits system like consumables taken by 1 series and assets are 2 series. For

consumables they divide the materials as :

1. Material Main Group (1001) 4 digits

2. Material Sub group (001) 3 digits

3. Material Sub-Sub Group (00001) 5 digits.

Total 12 digits for each material. Similarly Assets also same as start with ‘2’ digit.

Transaction: In transaction first prepare the purchase order and then we have inward

option thereafter we raise the MRN (Material Receipt Note) against the PO then

give MRN approval.

Once MRN is approved in package these materials directly enters into stock statement and

then only we raise issue note of that material. In this package materials are issued in FIFO

(First In First Out) method.

Debit notes also issued through issue note by mentioning debt rate as per the Sub contractor

Work in the cases where the sub-contractor rates are inclusive of cost of material.

Aggregate materials are also similarly to common materials but here we have to enter Trip

sheet vehicle wise. Apart from aggregate, Sand, Metal & Boulders are also to be booked

in this option only.

Reports:

In this option we can see view of all transaction like:

1. Purchase Details,

2. MRN Details,

24

25

3. Supplier wise Material receipt,

4. Issue note details,

5. Debt note details and

6. Closing stock statement.

Accounts Approval:

After completing all entries, accounts approval is given to the entries. After this approval, the

Store inventory’s details will be posted into Accounts package.

Physical Verification:

Here we will observe details of closing stock details. The physical verification has to be done

periodically to arrive at the correctness of inventory

Utility: This option is for Package control.

System Control: This option is for user permission settings.

Change F.Y: Here we use this option for viewing cumulative/previous financial year’s

details.

Log Off: This is to Log off of present running year.

Exit: Come out from package (Close)

FINANCIAL ANALYSIS (INVENTORY )

Introduction:

Inventories are viewed by most of the business world as a large potential role and

not as a measure of wealth as was prevalent in old days. The inventory stocked in excess of

demand may lead to blockage of funds for a longer duration until the excess stock is consumed.

There is a constant fear in the minds of business because of uncertainty in the market situations,

whether to stock or not to stock, rather monitor the market, optimization of resource through

proper inventory control becomes one of the major challenges for the material manager in every

organization. Widening gap between theory and the practice has become remarkable phenomena

in the age of science and technology. When the frontiers of knowledge are widening and the

theory is developing at fast rate, the practice is lagging far behind. This is probably true about all

branches of knowledge and especially true for inventory management area. The material function

in Construction field has a direct importance as every area related to field. Inventories play

essential and pervasive role in the construction field.

INVENTORY ANALYSIS

Problems studied

In the study, efforts have been made to conduct a details analysis of inventory management

functions in the IVRCL LTD. KSLIS Project-II.

For this purpose detailed research has been conducted as under:

1. The Package system in which was in design in Visual FoxPro was studied in detailed.

2. Existing purchase system of the Board was observed. In which organization structure

of procurement department, purchase policies, records relating to purchases were

analyzed.

26

27

3. Detail organization structure of stores of Controller of stores department, were

studied. Inventories held in the stores, their receiving, issuing procedures, techniques

of stores control adopted by the board were analyzed.

4. Treatment given to wastages, spoilage and dead inventory by the stores were taken.

5. Existing system of inventory control adopted by the board was studied.

6. New inventory control technique applied to improve the efficiency of material

management department and to reduce cost of inventory.

Research Methodology

The relevant data and information have been collected from primary as well as from

secondary sources. For collection of information software, pertaining to raw-material

management general and purchase control as well as stores control. Level employees of the

materials management services, IT, Central stores (Receipt & Issue), Human Resource

Development, Finance & Accounts department of KSLIS-II. Direct interviews were also from

the concerned department, of the board. This helped together actual prevailing conditions of

purchasing, maintaining and controlling of materials/components. Moreover the site was also

visited many times to study the inventory management systems in KSLIS –II (Koilsagar lift

Irrigation scheme stage-II).

PARTA SYSTEM

INTRODUCTION

INSURANCE PARTA SYSTEM was introduced by IVRCL LIMITED Company. It is

setting targets for revenues and expenditures and comparison of actual against set standards. It is

generally prepared for one financial year, but when there is any substantial hike in prices of raw

materials and other expenses, It can be revised accordingly. Monthly variances in the expenses

and the revenues are disclosed in the monthly MIS (Management Information System) report

and measures are taken accordingly.

27

28

PREPRATION OF PARTA

CAPACITY (Concrete/Metals from batching plant & from Crusher)

For preparing a PARTA, first of all target is to be set of for batching plant as to the quantity

of concrete is produced by the plant. Presently KSLIS Project is having 2 concrete Batching

plants and one stone crusher and their capacities are taken more than their rated capacity in

PARTA.

Major Consumables Items:

CEMENT:

Cement is basic raw material for producing concrete. In this project mainly 43 grade

Ordinary Portland cement is exclusively used. This grade of cement is being used as per the

relevant provisions of contract agreement due to its fast setting time of concrete.

OILS:

Here Major Consumption of oil is HSD (High speed Diesel) and is being procured in bulk

quantities for various types of machinery, heavy/light vehicles, DG Sets, Compressors etc. This

item is classified as “A” Class item along with other major materials viz; Cement, reinforcement

Steel, structural steel, aggregates, sand, dust and boulders.

STEEL:

This is one of the major materials for this field which is used in concreting works of various

locations such as; Pump house, Building, Bridges, tunnels lining & main structures in Project.

The definition of RCC i.e. reinforced cement concrete means containing of reinforcement steel

in all concreting works.

28

29

AGGREGATES:

The another major component of concrete works is crushed aggregates which is also termed as

“Metal”. Normally two sizes i.e. 20 mm & 12 mm metal is being used in RCC works as per

specifications laid down in the relevant standards.

MOTORS & PUMPS:

A number of electrical and diesel driven water pumps are purchased for this project to

effectively drain out the accumulated water in various locations of canals due to seepage or rains

etc and the capacity of such pumps are ranging from 1.00 HP to 50 HP of different makes. To

maintain the pumps in running condition all the time, several spare parts are being procured from

time to time. This is one of the important item for execution of canal works.

STORES & SPARES

PARTA for stores spares consumption and operation are fixed for normal as well as shut down.

Store consumption is calculated by concerned engineers comparing the previous year

consumption & looking into the life span of spares. Continuous efforts are made to reduce the

consumption of store & spares through residual life studies & by improving life period of stores

& spares.

SALARY / WAGES & FRINGE BENEFITS

For controlling manpower expenditure time to time manpower studies are conducted through

engineers and concerned officials. Salary & Wages PARTA is based on MANPOWER &

AVERAGE SALARY. In the wages entire benefits such as PF (PROVIDENT FUND , BONUS

& MEDICAL ALLOWENCES etc., which forms about 42-45% of total wages in evaluated

in PARTA.

29

30

MERITS OF PARTA SYSTEM

It is the main tool for planning and budgeting.

It helps the management in monitoring the day-today affairs of the company

It is a tool for motivation to employees for achieving the targets.

It helps in assessing the overall performance of the unit.

It helps in financial working i.e. alluring any expenditure or curtailing any expenditure

or taking any new project etc.

It helps in monitoring the cost, as targets are well defined therefore the project as well

as staff try to improve their efficiencies.

It helps in reducing the variances.

It helps in taking decision regarding payment of advance taxes etc.

Since KSLISP is under Captive of IVRCL LTD., this PARTA system helps in planning

the PARTA for its parent unit i.e. IVRCL LIMITED Company.

DEMERITS OF PARTA

None

LIMITATION OF PARTA

It is very difficult to anticipate the execution activities in advance.

It has a bearing of certain government and legal regulation so it is very difficult to

precisely project any price etc.

SUGGESTION

Use of Zero base budgeting method.

SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT AT KSLIS PROJECT

PRELIMINARY PURCHASE REQUISITION

Experience has proved that no inventory control mechanism can be effective and

fruitful unless material procurement is controlled and regulated at the very

procurement plan stage itself.

At KSLIS project, planning & maintenance department prepares the preliminary purchase

requisition in the proposal from (rough/hand written) and send it for review to the inventory

control cell. This purchase requisition motions the type of spares or consumables and its

criticality in terms of purposed to be procured.

The inventory control cell first determines the PR value on the basis of last procurement rate

or quotation and assigns system material code. It also supplements information in respect of:

Stock in stores

Pending PR quantity with expected delivery

Consumption pattern for past 2-3 months, and

Delivery schedule, suitability, considering consumption plan

The planning engineer associated with the inventory control cell ascertains availability of

material or its equivalent with other departments and gets same spares for use. He also

explores possibility of using alternative material which may available in stock or purchase

value of which would be comparatively lower.

31

32

MANAGEMENT INFORMATION SYSTEM

Inventory control cell prepares following monthly MIS report:

o Comparative stock statement under-critical, non-critical items and

identifies increase/reduction vis-à-vis previous month’s consumption.

o Statement on specific items with details, which contributed to increase in

the inventory in the particular month along with further consumption

plan.

o The above report is discussed amongst the HOD’s during MRP (monthly

performance review meeting). These are discussed with the Project-in-

Charge during review meetings.

Inventory control cell also prepare following quarterly report

Stock summary statement

Physical verification of Major & consumable items (ABC Analysis)

Vehicle Performance Report

Age analysis of spares & other material.

PERIODIC (ANNUAL) REVIEW FOR REGULAR ITEMS

In case of high & regularly used items, data is collected about their consumption in previous

months, and compared to the quantities projected by the user department. The entire

requirement for is consolidated and after deliberation, the composite quantity with phased

deliveries is communicated to the purchase department for placement of monthly, quarterly,

annual/bi-annual orders. Items covered under the above exercise include:

32

33

Cement of required grades

Reinforcement Steel of various dias (8mm, 10mm, 12mm, 16mm, 20mm & 25mm)

Various sizes of Aggregates, Sand, Bricks, Dust and Boulders etc

HS diesel, oils requirement for maintenance for vehicles, machinery etc

Structural steel such as ; Ms plates, Ms sheets, Ms Pipes & Scaffolding materials

which are required for staging/scaffolding for construction of buildings & brides etc

All spares & consumable items.

Based on the ABC analysis, consumable regular items are reviewed and their ROL/ROQ

is revised annually. In certain cases if there is a departure from the norms/practices,

ROL/ROQ are reviewed and revised midterm ROL/ROQ formulated for auto-identified

by the stores department, cover the following major consumable groups:

Cement capsules

Valves, curing pipes

Wooden Runners

STORES MANAGEMENT

Stores play a vital role in the operation of the company. It is direct touch with the user

department in its day-to-day activities. The most important purpose served by the stores is to

provide uninterrupted service to the executing agencies. Further, stores are often equated directly

with money, as money is locked up on the stores. The functions of stores can be classified as

follows:

1. To receive raw materials, components, tools, equipments and other items and accounts

for them.

2. To provide adequate and proper storage and preservation to the various items

3. To meet the demands of the consuming departments by proper issues and accounting

for the consumption.

4. To minimize obsolescence, surplus and scrap through proper codification, preservation

and handling.

5. To highlight stock accumulation, discrepancies and abnormal

Consumption and effect control measures.

6. To ensure good housekeeping so that material handling materials

Preservation, stocking, receipt and issue can be done adequately.

7. To assist in verification and provide supporting information for

Effective purchase action.

In India, owing to stiff supply positions, 4 to 6 months inventories are not uncommon and, in

fact, for certain imported items, it could be as high as 24 months’ stock. In this context, stores

management assumes greater importance.

COST ASPECTS AND PRODUCTIVITY

Costs involved in stores can be analyzed under two heads, Viz; fixed and variable. Fixed costs

are to be incurred irrespective of the utilization of the space of the stores. They include money

35

36

spent on land and buildings, interest on rent, repairs, maintenance; insurance, etc. Variable costs

vary with the volume of throughput. They consist of handling costs, damages, deterioration

obsolescence, etc. Obviously, when the throughput or the volume of goods handled is high, the

total cost per unit comes low. This should be the aim of the stores manager in order to optimize

the costs in stores.

FINDINGS AND SUGGESTIONS:

1. The material issue vouchers are manually prepared and posted into the package at a later

date, due to which higher stock values are being relfected. To arrive at exact quantities

on day-to-day basis, system generated issue vouchers should be implemented.

2. The major material such as steel & cement are being procured from limited parties. Since

the consumption is much more, the supply areas should be widened to have a competitive

rate with quality.

3. At times, the cement & steel procured in bulk quantities is not consumed within a short

span which is resulting in blockage of funds. This is also reflecting in lesser receipt from

clients as the items are not fully executed by utilizing the procured quantities.

4. The cement bags should be opened by cutting on top portion with a blade so that

wastage of cement is curtailed and empty bags could become usable for other purposes

or can be disposed off if they are in good condition.

5. The raw material such as Aggregates & Sand etc are not properly dumped/ stacked at

various locations of site and are scattered in more area than required which is resulting

in avoidable wastage. Proper care should be taken for stacking the material within limited

space. Special care should be taken during rainy season when the percentage of wastage

would be beyond any one’s control.

6. The scrap lying at various locations is not being collected and stacked properly, leaving a

room for mis-use or theft. The scrap should be periodically collected from all locations

76

77

and stacked in Main store for proper security and further accountability and also to

dispose off them at frequent intervals to lessen the burden as well as to gain income.

7. Periodical maintenance of the machinery, equipments, plants and vehicles is not being

done owing to exigencies. However, a reasonable time should be fixed for their

maintenance which would increase the capacity of utilization as well as life span.

CONCLUSIONS :

Since execution of project is by utilizing the machinery and manpower,

expected/projected out come can not be achieved owing to the reasons beyond the

reach/control such as non-availability of required skilled/unskilled manpower and frequent

break down of machinery/equipment, non-availability of major material in time or due to

natural calamities etc or delay from clients in according approvals and decisions etc duly

fulfilling their part of contractual obligations. Hence it is beyond prediction that the project

would be completed well within time earning projected margin.

The project, when completed, would extend irrigation facilities to a total ayacut of 50250

acres in Mahbubnagar dist boosting up the cultivation in many villages as well as increasing

the economy and life style of farmers.
