Executive Summary
This report is about the things I have learnt and the work that I have done during my 2 months stay at India
Yamaha Motor Pvt. Ltd., Surajpur plant.
It gives a description about the working of Yamaha‟s own Manufacturing Resource Planning (MRP) system,
PYMAC (PAN Yamaha Manufacturing Control) which is used to place the orders according to the production
schedule and to coordinate with the vendors to ascertain the on time supply of raw material and other parts.
It also discusses about the purchase department of Yamaha and its functioning which includes placing of
orders according the production schedule, cost planning of spare parts and other integral parts and to
communicate this change in prices to the vendors through a price confirmation sheet (PCS), procurement of
non-productive parts and procurement of productive parts, with a special description of the productive part
procurement.
This report also details about the day-to-day purchase operations. I was working in the productive part
procurement department, where in the last week. I was supposed to monitor the condition of the parts in the
inventory on a daily basis and coordinate with the vendors to ensure immediate supply of the critical parts.

Introduction
India is the second largest manufacturer of motorbikes in the world after China. The motorbikes market is
considered as a big bull of Indian automobiles industry. In India, the share of motor bikes in the two-wheeler
industry has risen to 80% from 30% in the last decade and a half, during which annual period sales of
motorbikes in the country have grown by a multiple of 13.
Strong players like Hero Honda, Bajaj Auto, TVS, Yamaha India etc. aim to provide efficiency and comfort
ability without compromising on the fun and thrill of riding. These companies provide various variants of
motorbikes to satisfy all the types of consumers in the country. In India, four different variants of motorbikes
are available in the market with the power engines of 100cc, 125cc, 150-250cc and above 250cc bike.

1.1 YAMAHA Motor Company, Japan
Yamaha Motor Company Limited, is a Japanese manufacturer of motorcycles, marine products such as boats
and outboard motors, and other motorized products. The company was established in 1955 upon separation
from Yamaha Corporation, and is headquartered in Iwata, Shizuoka, Japan. Yamaha Motor conducts global
development, production and marketing operations through 109 consolidated subsidiaries as of 2012.
Led by Genichi Kawakami, the company‟s first president, Yamaha Motor began production of its first product,
the YA-1 , in 1955. The 125cc motorcycle won the 3rd
Mount Fuji Ascent Race in its class, and launched a
legacy by which the company continues to pursue motorsports as a means to accelerate development.
Fig. 1.2 Yamaha Motor Company, Iwata, Shizuoka, Japan
Page 13
Yamaha Motor‟s current lineup of products includes motorcycles, scooters, electrically power assisted
bicycles, boats, sail boats, personal watercrafts, pools, utility boats, fishing boats, outboard motors, 4-wheel
ATVs, recreational off-highway vehicles, racing kart engines, golf cars, multi-purpose engines, generators,
water pumps, snowmobiles, small-sized snow throwers, automobile engines etc.
The company is also involved in the import and sales of various types of products, development of tourist
businesses and management of leisure, recreational facilities and related services.
Yamaha Motors has two core areas of technology – small engine technology originating from motorcycle
development, and FRP process technology originating from boat manufacturing. Further to this, Yamaha
Motor has expanded into developing control technology and component technology in order to build a multi-
axial business structure while at the same time pursuing globalization of our corporate activities. Small engine
technology is now implemented in new fields such as marine engines, RV‟s, and other power products, while
FRP process technology is now used for pool manufacturing and personal vehicle exteriors.
The motorcycle, used as a daily mode of transport or as an essential partner in leisure and sporting activities,
has been at the core of Yamaha motor since the founding of the company. The demand in the type of
motorcycle varies between regions, for instance the North American market demands cruisers, the European
market tourers, and the Oceania market requires dual-purpose sports models (both on and off road). To meet
these varying demands of the worldwide market, we have a wide range of motorcycle lineups available.
Key Products
Motorcycles
Yamaha's first motorcycle was the 1 YA-1, which was a copy of the German DKW RT125, and had a 125 cc,
single-cylinder two-stroke engine. It was launched in February 1955 and the bike won its first race, the Mount
Fuji Ascent Race, in July 1955.[3]
Yamaha continued producing two-stroke engines until it launched the XS-
1 in 1969, with a 650 cc two-cylinder four-stroke engine, using expertise that it gained doing engine
development work for Toyota. In 1998 Yamaha marketed a revolutionary 1000cc four cylinder road bike
called the YZF 'R1', this model introduced a new style of gearbox design which shortened the overall length of
the motor/gearbox case, thereby allowing a more compact unit. This, in turn allowed the motor to be placed in
the frame far enough forward to compliment good handling in a short wheel-based frame, a revolutionary step
forward in motorcycle design[4]
In 1979, the XT500 won the first Paris-Dakar Rally.[5]
Page 14
In 1995, Yamaha announced the creation of Star Motorcycles, a new brand name for its cruiser
series of motorcycles in the American market. In other markets, Star motorcycles are sold
under the Yamaha brand.
In 2007, Yamaha officially established the Philippine operations and distributes Yamaha
motorcycles under the corporate name of Yamaha Motor Philippines, Inc.
Today, Yamaha produces scooters from 50 to 500 cc, and a range of motorcycles from 50 to
1,900 cc, including cruiser, sport touring, sport, dual-sport, and off-road.
Racing
In motorcycle racing Yamaha has won 36 world championships, including 3 in Moto-GP and 9 in the
preceding 500 cc two-stroke class, and 1 in World Superbike. Yamaha riders include Giacomo Agostini, Bob
Hannah, Heikki Mikkola, Kenny Roberts, Eddie Lawson, Wayne Rainey, Jeremy McGrath, Stefan
Merriman, Phil Read, Chad Reed, Ben Spies, James Stewart and currently Jorge Lorenzo and Valentino Rossi.
The Yamaha YZ450F won the AMA Super-cross Championship two years in a row, in 2008 with Chad Reed,
and 2009 James Stewart. Yamaha was the first to build a production mono-shock motocross bike (1975 for 250
and 400, 1976 for 125) and one of the first to have a water-cooled motocross production bike (1977 in works
bikes, 1981 in off-the-shelf bikes).
Since 1962, Yamaha made production road racing Grand Prix motorcycles that any licensed road racer could
purchase. In 1970, non-factory privateer teams dominated the 250 cc World Championship with Great
Britain's Rodney Gould winning the title on a Yamaha TD2.
Yamaha also sponsors several professional ATV riders in several areas of racing, such as cross country racing
and motocross. Yamaha has had success in cross country with their YFZ450, ridden by Bill Ballance, winning
9 straight titles since 2000. Yamaha's other major rider, Traci Cecco, has ridden the YFZ450 to 7 titles, with
the first in 2000. In ATV motocross, Yamaha has had success with Dustin Nelson and Pat Brown, both who
race the YFZ450. Pat Brown's best season was a 3rd place title in 2007, while Nelson has had two 1st place
titles in the Yamaha/ITP Quadcross, one in 2006 and the other in 2008.
Yamaha produced Formula One engines from 1989 to 1997, initially for the Zakspeed team, in 1991 for
the Brabham BT60Y, in 1992 for the Jordan 192, from 1993 to 1996 for Tyrrell, and in 1997 for the Arrows
Page 15
A18. These never won a race, but drivers including Damon Hill, Ukyo Katayama, Mark Blundell and Andrea
de Cesarisscored some acceptable results with them.
Automobile Engines
Yamaha has built engines for other manufacturers' vehicles beginning with the development and production of
the Toyota 2000GT (1967) with the Toyota Motor Corporation. Also, the cylinder head from the Toyota 4AGE
engine was developed by Yamaha Motor Corporation and was built at Toyota's Shimayama plant alongside the
4A and 2A engines. [6]
Some other high performance Toyota engines developed by Yamaha are the 1LR-GUE
engine found on the 2010-2012 Lexus LFA and the 2ZZGE engine found on the 1999-2006 Toyota Celica GT-
S. In 1984, executives of the Yamaha Motor Corporation signed a contract with the Ford Motor Company to
develop, produce, and supply compact 60° 3.0 Liter DOHC V6 engines fortransverse application for the 1989–
'95 Ford Taurus SHO.[7][8]
From 1993 to 1995, the SHO engine was produced in 3.0 and 3.2 Liter versions.
Yamaha jointly designed the 3.4 Liter DOHC V-8 engine with Ford for the 1996–'99 SHO. Since 2005
Yamaha produces a 4.4 Liter V8 for Volvo. The B8444S engines are used in the XC90 and S80 models. British
sportscar maker Noble also uses a bi-turbo version of the Volvo V8 in their M600.
Yamaha also tunes engines for other manufacturers, Toyota being one of them. Yamaha logos are, for instance,
found on the Toyota S engines.
Snowmobiles
In 2010, Yamaha was the only snowmobile manufacturer to use four-stroke engines across its range.[10]
In
Canada though, there are still three models that Yamaha manufactures that are still two-stroke. They are the
Bravo, VK 540 and the Venture XL. Yamaha had introduced four-strokes to their line-up in 2003, and the line-
up became four-stroke based for model year 2005. The RX-1, released in 2003, was the first performance-
oriented four-stroke snowmobile on the market. It was not, however, the first modern four-stroke snowmobile
produced. That honor belongs to Arctic Cat for their Yellowstone Special, released in 2000, which was
designed as a rental sled that could meet Yellowstone National Park's stringent emission requirement.
However, Yamaha received much criticism for its weight disadvantage when compared to similar two-
strokes, despite its fuel economy and low-range torque. Yamaha is now on the cutting edge of four-stroke
technology with the introducing of their 80FI engine, which is equipped on the Phazer and Venture Lite
models. This engine has one of the highest specific output of any four-stroke in production, with 160 HP/L,
Page 16
Yamaha achieves this even without the use of a forced induction system. Yamaha is also a key player in the
"four-stroke wars", which are a series of advertisements from opponent Ski-Doo, who claim their E-tec and
power-tec equipped two-strokes are still cleaner and more efficient than four-strokes, while Yamaha still
claims the four-strokes are cleaner. Yamaha also broke a multi-year absence from sno-cross in the winter of
2006/2007 with their introduction of a factory race team headed by former Arctic Cat racer Robbie Malinoski.
Yamaha was the first brand to win with a 4-stroke in a professional snowcross race. This happened in 2006 at
the WPSA snow cross championship.

3.2.3 Job rule for controlling parts from vendor to stores
In this job rule, we have two decision points, the first one being at the initial stage where
confirmation from vendor for receiving of schedules is done. If the schedules are not received by the
vendors, then the purchase department coordinates with the IT department, if yes then we proceed to
the next step. The second decision point occurs at the time of inspection. If the quality is OK, the parts
are sent to the store locations, but if it is not, the lot is sent for segregation where the OK are parts are
sent to stores and the faulty ones are sent back to the vendors with a rejection tag.

This job rule is somewhat similar to the previous one. Here the Production Quality
Engineering (PQE) department intimates the purchase department about the non-conformance of parts
and necessary actions as shown in the flow chart are taken by the purchase department.

4.1 A Brief Background of MRP
Material requirements planning (MRP) is a production planning and inventory control system used
to manage manufacturing processes. Most MRP systems are software-based, while it is possible to conduct
MRP by hand as well.
An MRP system is intended to simultaneously meet three objectives:
Ensure materials are available for production and products are available for delivery to customers.
Maintain the lowest possible material and product levels in store
Plan manufacturing activities, delivery schedules and purchasing activities.
History
Prior to MRP, and before computers dominated industry, reorder-point/reorder-quantity (ROP/ROQ) type
methods like EOQ (Economic Order Quantity) had been used in manufacturing and inventory management. In
1964, as a response to the TOYOTA Manufacturing Program, Joseph Orlicky developed Material
Requirements Planning (MRP). The first company to use MRP was Black & Decker in 1964, with Dick Alban
as project leader. In 1983 Oliver Wight developed MRP into manufacturing resource planning (MRP
II).[1]
Orlicky's book is entitled The New Way of Life in Production and Inventory Management (1975). By
1975, MRP was implemented in 700 companies. This number had grown to about 8,000 by 1981. In the 1980s,
Joe Orlicky's MRP evolved into Oliver Wight's manufacturing resource planning (MRP II) which brings
master scheduling, rough-cut capacity planning, capacity requirements planning, S&OP in 1983 and other
concepts to classical MRP. By 1989, about one third of the software industry was MRP II software sold to
American industry ($1.2 billion worth of software).
The Scope of MRP in Manufacturing
The basic functions of an MRP system include: inventory control, bill of material processing, and elementary
scheduling. MRP helps organizations to maintain low inventory levels. It is used to plan manufacturing,
purchasing and delivering activities.
"Manufacturing organizations, whatever their products, face the same daily practical problem - that customers
want products to be available in a shorter time than it takes to make them. This means that some level of
planning is required."
Page 37
Companies need to control the types and quantities of materials they purchase, plan which products are to be
produced and in what quantities and ensure that they are able to meet current and future customer demand, all
at the lowest possible cost. Making a bad decision in any of these areas will make the company lose money.
A few examples are given below:
If company purchases insufficient quantities of an item used in manufacturing (or the wrong item) it may
be unable to meet contract obligations to supply products on time.
If a company purchases excessive quantities of an item, money is wasted - the excess quantity ties up cash
while it remains as stock and may never even be used at all.
Beginning production of an order at the wrong time can cause customer deadlines to be missed.
MRP is a tool to deal with these problems. It provides answers for several questions:
What items are required?
How many are required?
When are they required?
MRP can be applied both to items that are purchased from outside suppliers and to sub-assemblies, produced
internally, that are components of more complex items.
The data that must be considered include:
The end item (or items) being created. This is sometimes called Independent Demand or Level “0 on BOM
(Bill of materials).
How much is required at a time.
When the quantities are required to meet demand.
Shelf life of stored materials.
Inventory status records. Records of net materials available for use already in stock (on hand) and
materials on order from suppliers.
Bills of materials. Details of the materials, components and sub-assemblies required to make each product.
Planning Data. This includes all the restraints and directions to produce the end items. This includes such
items as: Routing, Labor and Machine Standards, Quality and Testing Standards, Pull/Work Cell and Push
commands, Lot sizing techniques (i.e. Fixed Lot Size, Lot-For-Lot, Economic Order Quantity), Scrap
Percentages, and other inputs.
Page 38
Outputs
There are two outputs and a variety of messages/reports:
Output 1 is the "Recommended Production Schedule" which lays out a detailed schedule of the required
minimum start and completion dates, with quantities, for each step of the Routing and Bill Of Material
required to satisfy the demand from the Master Production Schedule (MPS).
Output 2 is the "Recommended Purchasing Schedule". This lays out both the dates that the purchased items
should be received into the facility AND the dates that the Purchase orders, or Blanket Order Release
should occur to match the production schedules.
Messages and Reports:
Purchase orders. An order to a supplier to provide materials.
Reschedule notices. These recommend cancelling, increasing, delaying or speeding up existing orders.
Fig. 4.1 MRP Layout
Page 39
Problems associated with MRP systems
First problem with MRP systems is the integrity of the data. If there are any errors in the inventory data,
the bill of materials (commonly referred to as 'BOM') data, or the master production schedule, then the output
data will also be incorrect ("GIGO": Garbage In, Garbage Out). Data integrity is also affected by inaccurate
cycle count adjustments, mistakes in receiving input and shipping output, scrap not reported, waste, damage,
box count errors, supplier container count errors, production reporting errors, and system issues. Many of these
type of errors can be minimized by implementing pull systems and using bar code scanning. Most vendors in
this type of system recommend at least 99% data integrity for the system to give useful results.
Second problem - systems is the requirement that the user specify how long it will take for a factory to make a
product from its component parts (assuming they are all available). Additionally, the system design also
assumes that this "lead time" in manufacturing will be the same each time the item is made, without regard to
quantity being made, or other items being made simultaneously in the factory.
A manufacturer may have factories in different cities or even countries. It is not good for an MRP system to
say that we do not need to order some material, because we have plenty thousands of miles away. The
overall ERP system needs to be able to organize inventory and needs by individual factory, and inter-
communicate the needs in order to enable each factory to redistribute components, so as to serve the overall
enterprise.
This means that other systems in the enterprise need to work properly, both before implementing an MRP
system and in the future. For example, systems like variety reduction and engineering, which makes sure that
product comes out right first time (without defects), must be in place.
Production may be in progress for some part, whose design gets changed, with customer orders in the system
for both the old design, and the new one, concurrently. The overall ERP system needs to have a system of
coding parts such that the MRP will correctly calculate needs and tracking for both versions. Parts must be
booked into and out of stores more regularly than the MRP calculations take place. Note, these other systems
can well be manual systems, but must interface to the MRP. For example, a 'walk around' stock intake done
just prior to the MRP calculations can be a practical solution for a small inventory (especially if it is an "open
store").
Page 40
The other major drawback of MRP is that takes no account of capacity in its calculations. This means it will
give results that are impossible to implement due to manpower or machine or supplier capacity constraints.
However this is largely dealt with by MRP II.
Generally, MRP II refers to a system with integrated financials. An MRP II system can include finite / infinite
capacity planning. But, to be considered a true MRP II system must also include financials.
In the MRP II (or MRP2) concept, fluctuations in forecast data are taken into account by including simulation
of the master production schedule, thus creating a long-term control.[3]
A more general feature of MRP2 is its
extension to purchasing, to marketing and to finance (integration of all the functions of the company), ERP has
been the next step.
Solutions to Data Integrity issues
Bill of material - The best practice is to physically verify the bill of material either at the production site or by
un-assembling the product.
Cycle count - The best practice is to determine why a cycle count that increases or decreases inventory has
occurred. Find the root cause and correct the problem from occurring again.
Scrap reporting - This can be the most difficult area to maintain with any integrity. Start with isolating the
scrap by providing scrap bins at the production site and then record the scrap from the bins on a daily basis.
One benefit of reviewing the scrap on site is that preventive action can be taken by the engineering group.
Receiving errors –
Manual systems of recording what has been received are error prone. The best practice is to implement the
system of receiving by ASN from the supplier. The supplier sends an ASN (Advanced Shipping Notification).
When the components are received into the facility, the ASN is processed and then company labels are created
for each line item. The labels are affixed to each container and then scanned into the MRP system. Extra labels
reveal a shortage from the shipment and too few labels reveal an over shipment. Some companies pay for ASN
by reducing the time in processing accounts payable.
Shipping Errors –
The container labels are printed from the shipper. The labels are affixed to the containers in a staging area or
when they are loaded on the transport.
Page 41
Production reporting –
The best practice is to use bar code scanning to enter production into inventory. A product that is rejected
should be moved to an MRB (material review board) location. Containers that require sorting need to be
received in reverse.
Replenishment –
The best replenishment practice is replacement using bar code scanning, or via pull system. Depending upon
the complexity of the product, planners can actually order materials using scanning with a min-max system.
Manufacturing Resource Planning (MRP II)
Manufacturing resource planning (MRP II) is defined as a method for the effective planning of all resources of
a manufacturing company. Ideally, it addresses operational planning in units, financial planning, and has a
simulation capability to answer "what-if" questions and extension of closed-loop MRP.
This is not exclusively a software function, but the management of people skills, requiring a dedication to
database accuracy, and sufficient computer resources. It is a total company management concept for using
human and company resources more productively.
Key Functions & Features
MRP II is not a proprietary software system and can thus take many forms. It is almost impossible to visualize
an MRP II system that does not use a computer, but an MRP II system can be based on either purchased–
licensed or in-house software.
Almost every MRP II system is modular in construction. Characteristic basic modules in an MRP II system
are:
Master production schedule (MPS)
Item master data (technical data)
Bill of materials (BOM) (technical data)
Production resources data (manufacturing technical data)
Inventories and orders (inventory control)
Purchasing management
Material requirements planning (MRP)
Page 42
Shop floor control (SFC)
Capacity planning or capacity requirements planning (CRP)
Standard costing (cost control)
Cost reporting / management (cost control)
Together with auxiliary systems such as:
Business planning
Lot traceability
Contract management
Tool management.
Engineering change control
Configuration management
Shop floor data collection
Sales analysis and forecasting
Finite capacity scheduling (FCS)
and related systems such as:
General ledger
Accounts payable (purchase ledger)
Accounts receivable (sales ledger)
Sales order management
(Distribution requirements planning) (DRP)
Automated warehouse management
Project management
Technical records
Estimating
Computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM)
CAPP
Page 43
The MRP II system integrates these modules together so that they use common data and freely exchange
information, in a model of how a manufacturing enterprise should and can operate. The MRP II approach is
therefore very different from the “point solution” approach, where individual systems are deployed to help a
company plan, control or manage a specific activity. MRP II is by definition fully integrated or at least fully
interfaced.
Fig. 4.2 Manufacturing Resource Planning (MRP II) Layout
Material requirements planning (MRP) and manufacturing resource planning (MRPII) are both incremental
information integration business process strategies that are implemented using hardware and modular software
applications linked to a central database that stores and delivers business data and information.
Page 44
MRP is concerned primarily with manufacturing materials while MRPII is concerned with the coordination of
the entire manufacturing production, including materials, finance, and human relations. The goal of MRPII is
to provide consistent data to all players in the manufacturing process as the product moves through the
production line.
Paper-based information systems and non-integrated computer systems that provide paper or disk outputs
result in many information errors, including missing data, redundant data, numerical errors that result from
being incorrectly keyed into the system, incorrect calculations based on numerical errors, and bad decisions
based on incorrect or old data. In addition, some data is unreliable in non-integrated systems because the same
data is categorized differently in the individual databases used by different functional areas.
MRPII systems begin with MRP, material requirements planning. MRP allows for the input of sales forecasts
from sales and marketing. These forecasts determine the raw materials demand. MRP and MRPII systems
draw on a master production schedule, the breakdown of specific plans for each product on a line. While MRP
allows for the coordination of raw materials purchasing, MRPII facilitates the development of a detailed
production schedule that accounts for machine and labor capacity, scheduling the production runs according to
the arrival of materials. An MRPII output is a final labor and machine schedule. Data about the cost of
production, including machine time, labor time and materials used, as well as final production numbers, is
provided from the MRPII system to accounting and finance (Monk and Wagner).
Benefits
MRP II systems can provide:
Better control of inventories
Improved scheduling
Productive relationships with suppliers
For design / engineering:
Improved design control
Better quality and quality control

Code Structure
Introduction
Like many other manufacturing companies, India Yamaha Motor also uses indigenously developed MRP
system which they call as PAN YAMAHA Manufacturing Control or the PYMAC. It is an MRP system that
connects Yamaha Motor Company with its subsidiaries all over the world and with the suppliers as well.
Fig 4.3 PYMAC system
It isquite evident from the figure that how Yamaha Motor Company (YMC) uses PYMAC to coordinate with
its subsidiaries in other nations as well as its vendors all over the world. Any dispatch of material or parts
from the vendor end is updated by the vendors in this system and when the material reaches the Yamaha
premises, it is updated in the database and the information is available to te purchase department for further
use. How this happens is discussed in the subsequent chapters of this report.
Page 46
Before I go any further in this chapter, I would like to explain a very important component of the PYMAC
system- the PYMAC cards. Knowledge of PYMAC cards is a must to understand the whole PYMAC system.
These are the cards which contain all the information about the parts and the material being sent to the Yamaha
plant and are of four types:
1. Delivery Slip
This slip will be issued to the vendor at the time of MRP run
for 15 days. This slip will be scanned at the time of receipt
of material which subsequently will update the stocks on real
time. This slip contains all the details regarding the supplier,
the user, quantity of the material delivered, delivery date,
item number and order number.
Fig. 4.4 Sample for Delivery Slip
2. Receipt Card
This slip is an acknowledgement of the delivered material
and it will be provided to the vendor as a proof that the
vendor has delivered that particular material. This card
also contains the same details as the delivery slip.
Fig 4.5 Sample for Receipt Card
Page 47
3. Inspection Report
This is the card for Quality Assurance judgment. This card contains, along with others, the details regarding
the quality of the material delivered. This card help helps the workers and the vendors to know the level of
quality and take decisions on whether to accept or reject the material.
Fig. 4.6 Sample for Inspection Report
4. Complete report
This card is basically a compilation of all the other three cards and contains all the details of the delivery slip,
receipt slip and the inspection report. This will be used when production is complete for the desired order
number and has to be entered in the system.
Fig. 4.7 Sample for Complete Report
Page 48
B.O.M Structure
Bills Of Material (B.O.M) structure for the PYMAC module is based on the manufacturing group. For
example, if we wish to produce a motor cycle with model number 2S2700 which has two different colors with
model numbers 2S2700-010A for color A and 2S2700-010B for color B, then for colored motorcycle, similar
operations will be performed at a single spot on the assembly line. It is very clear from the figure below that,
for both the colors, engine operations are performed at one spot and the body group operations are performed
on another spot.
Fig. 4.8 BOM structure for PYMAC-III
Page 49
Item Key Structure
The item key in a PYMAC module is a
combination of the item number, supplier code and the
user code. In the item number, details about the model
type, classification number, revision number and color
number is given. The S/U code provides information
about the originating and the terminating points of the
material flow.
Fig. 4.9 Procedure for developing Item Key Structure
Inventory Control
In the PYMAC module, we have a two point
reporting system, where the real time inventory,
along with the inventory in transfer can be
checked. Once the receipt report is provided to the
vendor, the same is updated at P/F (a place where
the parts are received). From the platform, these
parts are then supplied to the work center where
the manufacturing processes take place. From the
work centers, the finished goods are the.
Fig. 4.10 Inventory Control procedure at Yamaha transferred to the Stock-Point or the S/P (a place
where finished goods are stored). When the goods
are in transit, they are scanned as soon as they
leave the work centers. In this way, a two point
reporting takes place and we can have an access to
the real time inventory as well as the inventory in
transit.
Page 50
PYMAC-III Code Definition
The following tables clearly illustrates various codes for different item types, item class and item status.
Fig. 4.11 PYMAC-III code definition
Code Structure
Policy for the SU code setup (SJP)
This code is used to indicate the function that is to be
performed on the material. It is a 4-digit code where the
first digit is classified into three types- “in-house shop”,
“local vendor” and “overseas procurement”. The second
digit is classified according to the producing functions,
e.g. assembly, machining, painting etc. and the third and
the fourth digits are taken as the continued numbers. By
default, Surajpur factory shop has the digit for the
Fig. 4.12 Supplier/User (SU) Code of In-House
in-house shop as “nine” and the 3rd
digit as “zero”. For example, if in a PYMAC schedule, the S/U code is
given as 9101, then it means that the particular assembly shop of the Surajpur factory for body assembly. Other
S/U codes for in-house shop of the Surajpur factory are shown in the table below.
Page 51
Policy for Platform (P/F) setup (SJP)
This code is used to indicate the platform
where the material has to be received once it
enters the Yamaha premises. It is a
combination of four alphabets and numerals.
The first character is “P” which is the initial
character for platform. The second one is a
digit and is same as the 2nd
digit of the
corresponding SU code.
Fig. 4.13 Platform (P/F) Codes for PYMAC-III
The third one is the 4th
digit of that same SU code and the fourth character comprises of letters from A-Y for
Surajpur plant and numbers from 0-9 for Faridabad plant.For example, a platform code “P11A” would mean
that the SU code for the same is 9101, and the mentioned platform is “Body Assembly” area in the Surajpur
plant for big/medium parts. Other PF codes along with their SU codes are given in the table below.
Policy for Stock-Point (S/P) setup for work center
This code is used to indicate the location where the
finished goods will be stored once they come out
from the respective work centers. It is a combination
of four alphabets and numerals. The first character is
“S” which is the initial character for Stock-Point.
The second one is a digit and is same as the 2nd
digit
of the corresponding SU code. The third one is the
4th
digit of that same SU code and the fourth
character comprises of letters from A-Y for Surajpur

Introduction
This chapter details about the work done in the last two weeks of the summer internship. In the second last
week i.e. from 14th
July 2014 to 20th
July 2014, I attended meetings with two of the suppliers, Hemsons
Engineering and J.L.Auto Parts, one in Faridabad and the other one in Noida. These meetings were organized
in order to take commitment from the suppliers about the pending orders till 31st July 2014.
In the last week i.e. from 21st July 2014 to 26
th July 2014, I had to monitor the supplies from Hemsons
Engineering with supplier code 3814 and Nicks India Tools with supplier code 3823, and report to my
supervisor The whole data regarding the pending orders and amount of raw material and parts provided by
these vendors from 21st July 2014 till 25
th July 2014 is provided in the form of excel sheet.
This data was directly taken from the PYMAC software twice a day, once in the morning and once in the
evening and reported to the supervisor. The excel sheets comprise of the details like the Item name, Item
number, supplier code, platform code, order number, indicated quantity, remaining quantity etc.
As soon as the material is received at the gate and is updated in the “Gate Entry Invoice” of the PYMAC
system, the excel files automatically get updated depending upon the order size.
For example, if the indicated quantity of a particular order is 200 units and the supplier dispatches only 100,
then this part will be shown in the excel file, but if the supplier dispatches 200 units for the same order, then
this part gets automatically removed from the excel files.
To explain the thing better, the whole data is shown as the snapshots of the original excel files in the next
few pages of this chapter.

6.1 Conclusion
The current PYMAC system, PYMAC-III, used by YAMAHA is a complete MRP system which
provides services like inventory control, gate entry invoice checklist, pending orders, PYMAC card
printing etc. for the vendors
This system also provides the Bills Of Materials (BOM) structure, the supplier-user codes, the platform
codes and also helps in developing the item code structure for a particular component.
The PYMAC cards contain every information about a particular order like which part is being supplied
and in what number , where and by whom it is supplied, on what platform it is supposed to be
unloaded, whether the inspection is required or not etc.
With the help of PYMAC, Yamaha is able to establish a hassle free network of its vendors and is trying
to educate them so that they become self-reliant in printing the PYMAC cards and PYMAC orders.
The Divisional Functional Manual- Purchase consists all the job rules which are to be performed by the
Purchase Executives, e.g. selecting an alternate vendor, to ensure defect free component for assembly,
for new part procurement etc. along with the specified formats for CKD planning sheet, Emergency Air
Shipping etc.
The PYMAC software used in the Purchase department is easy-to-use software where from the data
about the orders can be downloaded and the suppliers can be contacted accordingly.
India Yamaha Motor gives purchase orders to its vendors indicating the requirements for the next 75
days and this MRP is generated twice a month
The suppliers that I worked upon during 21st July- 25
th July 2014 were Hemsons Engg. based in
Faridabad and Nicks India Tools based in Ludhiana. These suppliers could not provide the requisite
material as specified to them to be delivered in this duration.

6.2 Recommendations
In the gate entry invoice retrieval of PYMAC-III, it was observed that the material received in the
morning was, sometimes not even updated till evening. This lead to a mismatch in the inventory levels
of different shop floor and at the vendor end. This problem could be solved easily by fastening the
process of updating the material entry.
More stress could be given on vendor training so that they can print and understand the PYMAC
purchase order and the PYMAC cards. Whenever they fail to do so, the managers in the purchase
department get compelled to provide the suppliers with a manual Purchase Order, thereby taking a lot
of extra time.
One of the features in the PYMAC system is that, if we download the material entry data from the
PYMAC system for a particular vendor and a particular part is supplied as per the order, then that part
gets automatically removed from the PYMAC system thereby creating confusion. It would have been
much easier to understand, if instead of erasing the whole data, the remaining quantity field be made
zero.
6.3 Limitations
Due to its round the clock production, there are no live projects as such in Yamaha, so number
crunching was not possible to a greater extent and only a study could be conducted.
Working in the purchase department was a bit tough, as it was difficult to engage with the supervisor
due to his busy schedules.
As a company policy, confidential data was not revealed so as to maintain privacy standards and details
of only 4 suppliers were revealed in the last week of my training.
Due to a lag in updating the data of the material received at the gate, it happens sometimes that the
material received in the morning was, sometimes not even updated till evening. Allotted time frame
was not sufficient to record the data of all the suppliers.
