INTRODUCTION
Mother Dairy, set up in 1974, is a wholly owned subsidiary of National Dairy
Development Board (NDDB) of India. Mother Dairy manufactures, markets & sells milk
and milk products under the Mother Dairy brand (Milk, Cultured Products, Ice Creams,
Paneer and Ghee), Dhara range of edible oils, Safal range of fresh Fruit & vegetables,
Frozen Vegetables, Processed Fruit & Vegetable Products, Fruit Pulps & fruit juices.
Mother Dairy is an ISO 9001:2008 (QMS), ISO 22000:2005 (FSMS) and ISO
14001:2004 (EMS) certified organization. Mother Dairy has Certificate of Approval from
Export Inspection Council of India also.
Currently, it is one of the largest milk (liquid/unprocessed) plants in Asia selling more
than 25 lakh litres of milk per day, thereby enjoying a market share of 66% of the
branded milk sales in Delhi. Other important markets include Mumbai, Saurashtra and
Hyderabad. Mother dairy ice-cream was launched in the year 1995 and has shown
1
continuous growth over the years, and today it boasts approximately 62% market share in
Delhi and NCR.
PROCESSING OF MILK:
Processing of milk Unprocessed milk may contain small dirt particles invisible to the
naked eye. In order to remove these particles the milk has to be processed.
PROCESSING OF MILK:
At mother dairy, the processing of milk is done by process automation whereby state of
the art microprocessor technology is adopted to integrate and completely automate all
functions of the milk processing areas to ensure high product quality/reliability and
safety. There are four ways of milk processing Firstly , Clarification, in which milk is
spun at very high speed, removing all dust particles that are invisible to the naked eye.
Secondly , Standardisation which help to milk maintain uniformity by raising or lowering
its fat and SNF (solid not fat) percentage to a desired levels, so as to deliver milk to
consumers as per prescribed PFA norms. Thirdly , it is Homogenization which improves
palatability of milk and Finally , Pasteurization, which kills all pathogenic bacteria
present in the milk and thus making it safe for consumption. In case of packaged milk,
the processing goes through only three processes (excludes homogenization).
DISPATCHING OF MILK:
After processing, the milk is chilled and stored in silos and further chilled to about 2
Degree Celsius by the glycol chilling system, and then dispatched to the Milk Shops in
insulated road milk tankers. Prior to the milk being dispatched in tankers, it is tested for
quality to make sure that it meets the quality standards. When the tanker arrives at the
shop the milk is transferred into a large refrigerated tank. 79 tankers in the morning and
75 tankers in the evening bring in milk from the regional collection centres. After
collection the same tankers are utilized for the delivery of the processed milk to the
vendors and outlets.
Mother Dairy has over 820 Milk Distribution Outlets in the National Capital Region.
Each of these outlets place their demand by raising an invoice one day in advance. The
demand is also calculated using the Calendar Scheme, in this depending on the precalculated seasonal demands the outlets place their orders accordingly. In order to satisfy
immediate demand, 20 to 25 tankers are provided with a buffer stock of 500 litres each
day so that they can be mobilized to cater the demand in an area. To coordinate its
operations all the tankers are equipped with HAM radios.
Distribution Channels::
Distribution Channels: Token Distribution: Also, termed as Lohe ki bhains (Metal
Buffalo), is an automated milk vending machine. COW: Container on Wheels or COW is
a manual milk distribution program in which cycle-rickshaws are employed for milk
distribution. Retailers: The packaged milk is distributed via the retailer network
throughout the city.
QUALITY CONTROL:
Stringent quality control methodologies are employed in Mother Dairy. The milk is tested
for adulterations and quality at the time of collection from the farmers. The Milk that
comes from the collection points to the Mother Dairy plant is ensured to have a
temperature of not more than 7C and is subjected to 15 product and quality checks. The
Milk quality is checked repeatedly after each processing phase and the temperature is
judiciously maintained less than 5C always. Before the milk leaves the plant for the
delivery/distribution outlets the milk is tested again. The temperature of milk in the
delivery trucks is always maintained less than 7C.
All the trucks that deliver milk have specified guidelines to bring back 100 litres of milk
after distribution. This is done in order to test the delivered milk and to ensure that the
tankers are not adulterated during distribution. Since all the employed processing
procedures are automated, no contamination by human hands takes place. To ensure milk
freshness the collection and distribution points are always chosen such that the travel
time between them is always less than 36 hours.
CHAPTER-2:
CONCEPT OF SUPPLY CHAIN
A supply chain is a network between a company and its suppliers to produce and
distribute a specific product, and the supply chain represents the steps it takes to get the
product or service to the customer. Supply chain management is a crucial process,
because an optimized supply chain results in lower costs and a faster production cycle.
Before an organization tries to focus on supply chain management, its leaders must
determine what the supply chain encompasses. Just as you cant manage what you dont
measure, you cant plan and execute what you havent clearly defined. Hence, it is
important to articulate the overall purpose, scope, and components of a supply chain.
Following are useful supply chain definitions that highlight critical aspects of a supply
chain.
acquisition of raw materials to delivery of finished products to the end user. All
vendors, service providers, and customers are links in the supply chain.
Although the definitions vary in length and complexity, they collectively focus on three
themes: activities, participants, and benefits (Stock & Boyer, 2009). That is, organizations
must plan and coordinate supply chain activities among their network of suppliers and
10
customers to ensure that the end product is available to fulfill demand in a timely, safe,
and cost-efficient manner. When this is accomplished, the benefits of enhanced customer
satisfaction and retention will be achieved.
Related Terms and Concepts
Supply chain management encompasses a number of business processes, activities, and
goals that are discussed throughout this book. Before moving forward, it is valuable to
clarify their meanings and relevance to supply chain management.
Logistics Management
Logistics is a fundamental set of supply chain processes that facilitates fulfillment of
demand. The goal is to supply the right product or service, at the right place, at the right
time. The Council of Supply Chain Management defines logistics management as that
part of supply chain management that plans, implements, and controls the efficient,
effective forward and reverse flow and storage of goods, services and related information
between the point of origin and the point of consumption in order to meet customers
requirements. Whether provided internally, by a supplier, by the customer, or by an
external logistics services provider, these capabilities are essential for achieving supply
chain success.
Supply Management
Supply management focuses on the identification, acquisition, access, positioning,
management of resources, and related capabilities the organization needs or potentially
needs in the attainment of its strategic objectives (Institute for Supply Management,
2010). For most organizations, logistics controls the distribution of products; whereas
11
supply management controls the strategic sourcing of direct materials, finished goods,
services, capital equipment, and indirect materials. Both are needed to ensure optimal
performance of the supply chain.
Value Chain
The concept of a value chain was developed as a tool for competitive analysis and
strategy. It is composed of primary activities (inbound logistics, operations, outbound
logistics, marketing and sales, and service) and support activities (infrastructure, human
resource management, technology development, and procurement) that work together to
provide value to customers and generate profits for the organization (Porter, 1985). A
value chain and a supply chain are complementary views of an extended enterprise, with
integrated supply chain processes enabling the flows of products and services in one
direction, and the value chain generating demand and cash flows from customers
(Ramsey, 2005).
Distribution Channel
Distribution channels support the flow of goods and services from the manufacturer to
the final user or consumer (Council of Supply Chain Management Professionals, 2010).
An organization can establish direct channels to consumers or rely upon traditional
intermediaries such as wholesalers and retailers to facilitate transactions with final users.
The rapid expansion of the Internet as a key selling platform is forcing manufacturers and
retailers to develop innovative and flexible omnichannel capabilities in their supply
chains to fulfill customer demand from stores, distribution centers, and production
locations.
12
13
These steps are necessary to produce a quality product that is shipped to a customer in a
timely manner
Factoring in Economic Order Quantity
Many firms that use supply chain management apply the concept of economic order
quantity (EOQ). EOQ is a tool to determine how to order materials, parts and inventory
to minimize costs and meet production needs. EOQ considers the cost to place an order
and the time it takes to receive the order. For example, XYZ needs 100 brass drawer
handles a week for production, and it takes three weeks for the handles to arrive after
they are ordered, at a cost of $10. EOQ can determined the ideal order size and the timing
of the order.

CHAPTER-3
CONCEPT OF SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT
First introduced in the supply chain context in Designing and Managing the Supply
Chain, risk pooling is a statistical concept that suggests that demand variability is reduced
if one can aggregate demand, for example, across locations, across products or even
across time. This is really a statistical concept that suggests that aggregation reduces
variability and uncertainty. For example, if demand is aggregated across different
locations, it becomes more likely that high demand from one customer will be offset by
low demand from another. This reduction in variability allows a decrease in safety stock
and therefore reduces average inventory.
Several examples where risk pooling should be considered when making decisions:
1)
less safety stock is required to buffer against fluctuations. In addition, the more
consolidated the inventory, the easier it is to manage overall and the less risk of
obsolescence. Apple has very few products and options therefore it comes as no surprise
that according to Gartner they have the highest inventory turnover in the electronics
industry - 74, which means Apple turns its entire inventory every five days.
2)
Warehouse location and product flow - the decisions on whether to have many
warehouses close to the customers or more centralized locations should consider the risk
15
pooling effects. By centralizing a product in one location, you can take advantage of the
aggregated demand. On the other hand, you need to consider proximity to customers and
other factors that may push towards maintaining more warehouses. The characteristics of
each product also comes into play here as high demand products with low variability are
not impacted as much by the risk pooling effect while low volume high variability
products are highly vulnerable.
3)
Transportation - the more consolidated the products and the warehouses are, the
cheaper the transportation costs as shipments can be sent in larger batches. Therefore
considering the transportation impact on these decisions is important.
4)
Push-pull strategy in a push-pull strategy the initial stages of the supply chain are
operated on push while the final stages are operated on pull. So for instance, parts could
be manufactured but assembled only after there is a good demand signal. The extreme
case of this is Dell Direct where the components are ready and assembled only after the
order is received from the customer.
5)
generic product and adding some of the details once demand is revealed. This allows the
use of aggregated demand for the generic product which is much more accurate than the
demand for the differentiated products. Benetton is famous for using postponement
tactics at the actual sequencing point of the production process, whereby dying of the
garments is not completed until the agent network have provided market intelligence on
what particular products are in demand in which locations.
16
6)
can benefit from risk pooling considerations the less color choices or other options the
simpler the demand forecast and many other aspects of the supply chain since the
aggregated demand is easier to determine. A famous example is HP which created a
universal power cord for its LaserJet printers so that it did not need to differentiate
between the ones shipped to different parts of the world.
In 1997, Supply Chain Management Review published one article called "The Seven
Principles of Supply Chain Management" written by David Anderson, Frank Britt and
Donavon Favre. At that time, SCM was a pretty new term so this article did the excellent
job to explain the important supply chain management principles in one shot. More than
10 years pass and this article is considered the "classic" article and got republished in
2010. As of now, it got more than 160 citations from both scholarly articles and trade
publications. The following section will show the summary of 7 principles in an
infographic form and I will discuss if the concept from 1997 is still relevant to the current
business environment.

be
done
by

industry
and
trade
channel.
Back then, Anderson et al suggested that customer be segmented based on the service
needs, namely, "sales and merchandising needs" and "order fulfillment needs".
I totally agree that we should focus on the customer's needs but this doesn't seem to be
enough these days. The reason is that your customers may not know what they need until
your competitors offer something different. For example, in 2011 Amazon initiated a
program called Amazon Prime (free 2-day shipping and discounted 1-day shipping).
Today, people are still discussing if this program makes sense. But one thing for sure,
customer turns to Amazon more and more. The morale of this story is that you should
"anticipate" the customer's needs as well.
19
For example, if you were a contract manufacturer in China, you might already have
different logistics networks for different customers. Each customer in US or EU might
already control the source of raw materials, ask you to provide dedicated production
lines, nominate 3pl companies and air/sea carriers. So, logistics network design is a kind
of initiative driven mainly by customer.
There is a very interesting paper "Top-Down Versus Bottom-Up Demand Forecasts: The
Value of Shared Point-of-Sale Data in the Retail Supply Chain" by Williams and Waller
2011, the result of research found that,
- If you make the demand forecast based on SKU/Customer level, using your own
historical order data is more accurate than using the POS data you get from retailers
- If you make the demand forecast based on SKU/Store level, using the POS data you get
from retailers is more accurate than using your own historical order data
The implication is that the absence of demand sharing is not necessary bad. But when you
got the demand data from trading partners, you MUST use it the right way.
20
5) Outsource Strategically
This is the principle that stands the test of time. In short, don't ever outsource your core
competency. More information about outsourcing can be found from the infographic
named "7 Pitfalls of Outsourcing and How to Avoid Them".
21
understanding about process deficiencies then you can determine what kind of
technology that you really need.

CHAPTER -4
TRENDS IN SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT
A supply chain is a system of organizations, people, activities, information, and resources
involved in moving a product or service from supplier to customer. Supply chain
activities transform natural resources, raw materials, and components into a finished
product that is delivered to the end customer. Supply chain management (SCM) is the
management of the flow of goods. It includes the movement and storage of raw materials,
work-in-process inventory, and finished goods from point of origin to point of
consumption. The primary objective of SCM is to fulfill customer demands through the
most efficient use of resources, including distribution capacity, inventory, and labor.
23
Impact of E-commerce
E-commerce industry has become prominent in the last three years. This will create an
impact on supply chains of many retailers. Statistics of 2013 show those customers
preferred online shopping even during holidays. In fact online sales are high during
holidays. So retailers are providing special offers during holidays to attract customers. Ecommerce players are trying innovative techniques to increase customer reach. One such
technique is "click & collect" service, where people order products online for pick-up at
store or any other preferred location. This service is popular with busy internet-savvy
buyers of groceries and electronic gadgets. These people cannot wait at home during
daytime for deliveries and hence prefer to pick up at a convenient location and time. This
service has altered the supply chain and inventory management systems of many firms
and they need to be ready to face challenges.
Emergence of 3D printing
3D printing is the processes of making a three-dimensional object of almost any
shape from a 3D model or any other electronic data source. A 3D printer is a type of
industrial robot. 3D printing is one of the technologies that has potential to revolutionize
manufacturing and supply chain systems in future. 3D printing is already being used in
health care services (in dentistry for artificial implantation). Manufacturers see the
potential for 3D printing to change the way they source various spare parts. At present,
this technology is ideal for creating customized parts and reduces inventory and storage
costs. If the speed at which 3D printing produces items increases, it will change the
structure of supply chains. Right now 3D printing is not that useful in mass production as
24
it takes a long time to print a single item - 2 hours for a smart phone and longer periods
for complex items. But if, for example, it takes 16 hours to print a spare part, and
normally that part is shipped from a factory in Europe to India, then printing the part is
less costly than sourcing it.
Big Role of Big Data
It is very easy to get data related to customer behavior and purchasing trends using
Big data and a proper analysis and thorough number crunching can give significant inputs
to understand customer requirements regarding online and in-store shopping. Accordingly
changes in Supply chains have to be incorporated. The challenge is in using the
information from big data and getting a particular buying pattern of consumers, as
enormous amount of data is generated using big data.
Increasing Use of cloud computing
Logistics and warehouse operators are increasing usage of cloud computing to host their
IT supply chain on a centralized cloud, rather than on different physical computers
located at many locations. Cloud computing is used to set up warehouse and logistics
operations quickly in areas where there is paucity of established infrastructure. A
warehouse is created in the cloud. As long as a physical site is present, data present in the
cloud can be accessed. Cloud computing helps in improving a supply chain's long-term
efficiency.
Urban deliveries are becoming more complex
25
26
Amazon has announced an astronomical 2 billion dollars investment in India; Jabong and
some companies formed as global fashion group. As all these companies have attracted a
lot of investment, there would be huge competition among them. In such highly
competitive scenario, the simple pursuit of market share is no longer sufficient to ensure
profitability. Companies must focus on redefining their competitive space and have
unique strategies. For E-commerce companies, supply chain is a main differentiator. A
company that has an efficient and better supply chain can have edge over others in getting
good revenues.

HPTLC, Rancimat etc. to ensure that Dhara oils are 100 % pure. The unique packaging
material used for packing Dhara oil variants is food grade to ensure that the oil packed in
it remains hygienic and fresh.
Quality Process
Procurement:
Fresh milk is sourced directly from state level co-operatives and Mother Dairy own New
Generation Co-operatives (NGC). Milk received from individual producer is checked for
36
all basic quality parameters meeting company specifications & requirements at respective
collection & chilling centers.
Milk is then supplied to the Dairy units through insulated Milk Tankers under refrigerated
conditions to maintain the freshness.
Strict Quality checks are performed for all incoming Milk received at Dairy units. These
includes organoleptic (Taster, Odor & Appearance), Physico-chemical (e.g. Temperature,
Foreign matter, % Fat, % SNF, %Acidity, % Protein etc.), microbiological (e.g. MBRT),
also presence of any adulterations in Milk (e.g. Formalin, urea, starch, sugar, Glucose,
maltodextrin, nitrate, Salt, Hydrogen Per-oxide, neutralizer, ammonium compounds and
Fat adulterations).
Commodities, ingredients & packaging material used for our products are checked,
approved and released by Quality functions as per company specifications and
requirements.
Good manufacturing Practices (GMP) for our manufacturing units are a given, they are
part of our heritage of producing best quality and safe products. We maintain highest
level of GMP and hygiene requirements for production and handling of safe products for
our valued customers and consumers
37
Processing:
Our products are manufactured in state of the art manufacturing facilities using
innovative Process & Technologies. The Milk received at the plant undergoes various
processing steps before it reaches to the customer. Process steps include filtration,
clarification, pasteurization, chilling, filling, packing and storage for our liquid milk
category. For other dairy product category, few of the process steps are homogenization,
vacreation, ultra heat treatment, evaporation, dehydration etc. Cleaning & Sanitation of
the processing equipment is ensured using automatic Cleaning in Place (CIP) systems by
applying 5T principles viz. Technology, Time, Temperature, Turbulence and Testing.
Critical control points (CCP), Operational Prerequisite Programs (OPRP) are identified
for each process using scientific methodology and appropriate control measures are
applied to ensure compliance of Quality and Food Safety requirements.
Process control parameters are monitored, recorded and reviewed as per the Quality Plan
to ensure right product right at first time.
Manufacturing processes are benchmarked against best-in-class standards towards
continual improvement for infrastructure and system requirements.
38
Packing:
The Filling and packing is considered to be most sensitive operation having appropriate
access control. Zoning principles are applied in these areas to avoid any cross
contaminations in our Finished Product. Online quality control checks (e.g. net weight,
leakages, seal integrity, batch coding, packing material quality, filling temperature etc.)
are carried out and recorded by our Packing In-charges.
Only QC approved and released Packaging materials are used for packing operations.
Packaging material used for our products is with the objective of retaining taste, freshness
and unique natural appeal.
Finished product is tested for the specified quality parameters of each product category as
per our internal standardized sampling plan and test procedure. Test results are recorded,
reviewed by Quality functions. It is ensured that only good quality product is released for
dispatch and reaches our valued customer & consumer.
Distribution:
39
Our strength lies in adherence to systematic Process approach in the complete distribution
chain to deliver product with highest quality standards to our customers and consumers.

Milk booths located and operated in Calcutta do not belong to the New Delhi-based firm.
As part of an agreement, the Delhi-based entity cannot launch liquid pasteurised milk in
Calcutta but can bring in other products.
According to Basu, the company already has in place a supply chain and distribution
network for its products under the Dhara edible oil brand which are sold through 10,000
outlets.
The company will utilise this distribution network for its dairy whitener range and speed
up availability in two weeks. Notable names in this segment include Amulya from Amul
and Everyday from Nestle India.
Investments of Rs 150 crore have been made in a greenfield plant in Etawah in Uttar
Pradesh for this new product.
