helpful in getting practical knowledge in this globalization world. Now-a-days only

theoretical knowledge is not enough to success in life but most important we

must have practical knowledge. With the help of this training, I came to know how

Executive summary

AMUL is a co-operative sector. It is the institution of the farmers, for the farmers and

from the farmers. The AMUL gives pleasure to the farmer to charge the own price, which

was not possible in earlier years. This union was born on 14th December 1946. The union

provides facilities to its members like more return, satisfactory price, insemination, first

aid, group Insurance, cattle food at confessional price etc.

I have done case analysis on HRIS of AMUL and from that I have come to know how

organization operates and how the functions have been carried in the organization . From

this is case I have come to know how a wide organization like AMUL manages its

Human resource .

AMUL dairy has five main departments like finance, personnel, commercial, milk

procurement and production. The finance department does the clerical work and takes

care of inflow and outflows of the cash. The other work of finance Department is to audit

of annual work.

The personnel department handles the work regarding personnel like appointment,

recruitment, promotion, transfer, dismissal, demotion, performance appraisal etc.

Symbol of Amul is a ring of four hands, which are coordinated each other .The actual meaning of this symbol is coordination of hand of different people by whom this union is now at top.

First hand is for the farmers (producers), without whom the organization

would do not existed. Farmers are the inspiration of the AMUL – the taste of

India.

Second hand is for the representatives of processors by whom the raw milk

processed into different finished products.

Third hand is for marketers without whom the product would have not be able to

reached to the customer.

Fourth hand is for customers without whom the organization could not carry on

because they are the people who consume the product. The union of Amul would not

have been the second biggest successful company in the world without the

coordination of the above four hand.

QUALITY POLICY

We the motivated and devoted work force of AMUL are committed to produce whole

some and safe foods of excellent quality to remain market leaders through deployment of

quality management system, state of art technology innovation and eco- friendly

delightment of customer and betterment of milk producer

HISTORY

In early 1940’s a farmer in Kaira district, as elsewhere in India, derived his income

almost entirely from seasonal crops. The income from milk was paltry and could not be

depended upon. The main buyers were milk traders of Polson Ltd.-a privately owned

company that enjoyed monopoly for supply of milk from Kaira to the Government Milk

Scheme Bombay. The system leads to exploitation of poor and illiterate farmers by the

private traders.

12

Page 13: 39042696 amul

However, when the exploitation became intolerable, the farmers were frustrated. They

collectively appealed to Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, who was a leading activist in the

freedom movement. Sardar Patel advised the farmers to sell the milk on their own by

establishing a cooperative union, instated of supplying milk to private traders. Sardar

Patel sent the farmer to Shri Morarji Dasai in order to gain his Co-operation and help.

Shri Dasai held a meeting at ‘Samrkha’ village near Anand, on January 4, 1946. He

advised the farmers to from a society for collection of the milk.These village societies

would collect the milk themselves and also decided prices for that which would be

profitable for them. The district union was also from to collect the milk from such village

cooperative societies and to sell them. It was also resolved that the government should

asked to buy milk from the union.

However, the government did not seem to help farmer by any means. It gave the negative

response by turning down the demand for the milk. To respond to this action of

government, farmer of Kaira district went on a milk strike. For 15 days not a single drop

of milk was sold to the traders. As a result the Bombay milk scheme was severely

affected. The milk commissioner of Bombay then visited Anand to assess the situation.

Finely he decided to fulfill the farmers demand.

Thus their cooperative unions were forced at village and district level to collect and sell

milk on a cooperative basis, without the intervention of government. Mr. Verghese

Kurien had main interest in establishing union who was supported by Shri Tribhuvandas

Patel who convinced farmers in forming the cooperative unions at thevillage level. ‘The

Kaira District Co-operative Milk Producers’ Union’ was thus established in Anand and

was registered formally under section 10 of Bombay Act VII of 1925 on December 14,

1946. Since then farmers are selling all the milk in Anand through cooperative union. In

1955 it was commonly decided the sell milk under the brand name ‘Amul’

At the initial stage only 250 liters of milk was collected everyday. But with the growing

awareness of the benefits of the co-operative-ness the collection of milk increased. Today

Amul collect 50, 00,000 liters of milk everyday. As the milk is perishable commodity it

became difficult to preserve milk for a longer period. Besides when the milk was to be

13

Page 14: 39042696 amul

collected from the far places there was a fear of spoiling of milk. To over come this

problem the union thought to develop the chilling unit at various junctions, which would

collect the milk and could chill so as preserve it a for a longer period. Thus, today Amul

has more than 168 chilling centers in various villages. Milk is collected from almost 1097

societies.

With the financial help from UNICEF, assistance from the government of New Zealand

under the Colombo plan, of Rs. 50 million for factory to manufactory milk powder and

butter. Dr. Rajendara Prasad, the president of India laid the foundation on November 50,

1954. Shri Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, the prim minister of India declared it open at Amul

dairy on November 20, 1955.

A plant to manufacture balanced cattle feed was formally commissioned on October 31,

1964 by Shri Lalbahadur Shastri, the Prime Minister of India. At the request of the

government of India, a new dairy with a capacity to manufacture 40 tons of milk powder

and 20 tons of butter a day was completed in 1963. This was meant to meet the

requirement of India’s defense forces. The dairy was declared open by ShriMorarji Desai

in April, 1965. in 1974, the Kaira Union setup a plant to manufacture high-protein

weaning food, chocolate and malted food at Mogar, about 8 km south of Anand.

In September, 1981, the second cattle feed plant at ‘Kanjari’ were started. The succesion

of the co-generation project on September 11, 1985, marked a milestone on the energy

front when two gas turbine generators of 1.5 MW each based on natural gas, were

commissioned. On October 31, 1992, Dr. V. Kurien chairman, National Dairy

Development Board, laid the foundation of Kaira Union’s third dairy with a processing

capacity of 6.5 lakh liters of milk a day. Work on the third dairy and cheese plant at

‘Khatraj’ with capacity for 20 Metric Ton of cheese per day, began in February, 1994.

Also in 1994, Kaira Union put up bread spread plant at ‘Mogar’ with the assistance from

National Dairy Development Board.

THE AMUL BUTTER GIRL STORY

Amul Butter Girl: The moppet who put Amul on India's breakfast table.

50 years after it was first launched, Amul's sale figures have jumped from 1000 tones a

year in 1966 to over 25,000 tones a year in 1997. No other brand comes even close to it.

All because a thumb-sized girl climbed on to the hoardings and put a spell on the masses.

Bombay: Summer of 1967. A Charni Road flat. Mrs. Sheela Mane, a 28-year-old

housewife is out in the balcony drying clothes. From her second floor flat she can see her

neighbors on the road. There are other people too. The crowd seems to be growing larger

by the minute. Unable to curb her curiosity Sheela Mane hurries down to see what all the

commotion is about. She expects the worst but can see no signs of an accident. It is her

four-year-old girl who draws her attention to the hoarding that has come up overnight.

Round eyed, chubby cheeked, winking at you, from strategically placed hoardings. She is

the Amul moppet everyone loves to love

For 30 odd years the Utterly Butterly girl has managed to keep her fan following intact.

So much so that the ads are now ready to enter the Guinness Book of World Records for

being the longest running campaign ever. The ultimate compliment to the butter came

when a British company launched butter and called it Utterly Butterly.

15

Page 16: 39042696 amul

It all began in 1966 when Sylvester daCunha, then the managing director of the

advertising agency, ASP, clinched the account for Amul butter. The butter, which had

been launched in 1945, had a staid, boring image, primarily because the earlier

advertising agency which was in charge of the account preferred to stick to routine,

corporate ads.

The Amul girl who lends herself so completely to Amul butter, created as a rival to the

Polson butter girl. This one was, village belle, clothed in a tantalizing choli all but

covering her upper regions. "Eustace Fernandez (the art director) and I decided that we

needed a girl who would worm her way into a housewife's heart. And who better than a

little girl?" says Sylvester daCunha. And so it came about that the famous Amul moppet

was born.

MANUFACTURING PROCESS FOR MILK

MILK PROCUREMENT

Total milk procurement by our Member Unions during the year 2006-07 averaged 67.25

lakh kilograms (6.7 million kg) per day, representing a growth of 4.5 per cent over 64.38

lakh kilograms (6.4 million kg) per day achieved during 2005-06. The highest

procurement as usual was recorded during January 2007 at 84.09 lakh kilograms (8.4

million kg) per day. This increase in milk procurement is very impressive, keeping in

mind the massive loss suffered by our farmers due to

floods during the monsoon season, specially in Surat district.

MILK PROCESSING

1 Homogenization: - Milk must then be homogenized. Without homogenization, the

milk fat would separate from the milk and rise to the top. Milk fat is what gives milk its

35

Page 36: 39042696 amul

rich and creamy taste. In this process Milk is transferred to a piece of equipment called a

homogenizer. In this machine the milk fat is forced, under high pressure through tiny

holes.

2 . Pasteurization:- Pasteurization is the process that purifies milk and helps it stay

fresher, longer. Milk is pasteurized by heating it to 72°C for 16 seconds then

quickly cooling it to 4°C. Pasteurization is named after Louis Pasteur, the famous

scientist.

3 .Adding Vitamins; - Before homogenization, vitamin D is added to all milk.

Vitamin D combined with the calcium that naturally exists in milk help gives us strong

bones and teeth. Dairies also add Vitamin A to skim, 1% and 2% milk. Vitamin A is good

for our eyesight.

36

Page 37: 39042696 amul

4.Packaging Milk: - Milk is now ready to be packaged. Milk is pumped through

automatic filling machines direct into bags, cartons and jugs. The machines are carefully

sanitized and packages are filled and sealed without human hands. During the entire time

that milk is at the dairy, it is kept at 1° - 2°C. This prevents the development of extra

bacteria and keeps the milk it’s freshest.

5.Storing:- Milk is delivered to grocery stores, convenience stores and restaurants in

refrigerated trucks that keep milk cooled to 1° - 4°C. The stores take their milk and

immediately place it in their refrigerated storage area. Because fresh milk is so important

to our diets, dairies, and our health.

Page 39: 39042696 amul

Processing :

After the union received the milk, it was tested and if it was found to be of good quality,

it was sent for processing. If the milk was found to have high acidity, it was used to make

buttermilk. Raw milk was sent through a filter and clarifier and was pasteurized. For

pasteurization, milk was treated at high temperatures for a specified.

This helped in destroying the pathogens and in maintaining the quality. After

pasteurization, the milk was sent through a separation machine. Here the cream was

separated and skimmed milk was obtained. According to the demand, the unions packed

the milk after it was pasteurized and sent for distribution. The cream was marketed as

Amul Fresh cream .

Distribution GCMMF coordinated with various unions to get a regular supply of milk and dairy

products. The processed milk and dairy products were procured from district dairy unions

and distributed through third party distributors. To ensure quality and timely deliveries,

GCMMF and the district unions had several mechanisms in place. The VCS constantly

monitored the deliveries of the milk collected and ensured that the milk was picked up on

time. The unions monitored the supplies of milk and the distribution of finished products.

WARE HOUSING: Amul products are available in over 500,000 retail outlets across

India through its network of over 3,500 distributors. There are 47 depots with dry and

cold warehouses to buffer inventory of the entire range of products. GCMMF transacts on

an advance demand draft basis from its wholesale dealers instead of the cheque system

adopted by other major FMCG companies. This practice is consistent with GCMMF's

philosophy of maintaining cash transactions throughout the supply chain and it also

minimizes dumping. Wholesale dealers carry inventory that is just adequate to take care

of the transit time from the branch warehouse to their premises. This just-in-time

inventory strategy improves dealers' return on investment (ROI). All GCMMF branches

engage in route scheduling and have dedicated vehicle operation .

Page 42: 39042696 amul

DEFINITION OF VALUE CHAIN

As per the above diagram there are the first components is raw material:

In our company the raw materials are milk, powder for ice creams manufacturing,

different types of flavors for ice creams, packaging material, sugar etc. required by the

company for manufacturing. In this step GCMMF play a very important role it procures

milk from villages and for this it develops three types of system and that is societies at

villge level, district level and state level.

42

Page 43: 39042696 amul

Second component is suppliers are the farmers and other raw material for manufacturing

the ice creams are provided by MAHAN PROTEINS LTD., IDEAL ICE CREAMS and

BHARAT ESSENCE.

This component is manufacturing process which is describe above. In milk process there

are mainly five steps are required and i.e. homogenization, pasteurization, adding

vitamins, packaging, storing. In this process there are also requirement of warehouse for

storing the product which already made and also for the raw material.

The next step is the distribution channel in which GCMMF plays very important role in

that. It handle all the marketing for AMUL products. GCMMF's products were marketed

through 50 sales offices located across India to 4,000 stockists. These stockists supplied

the products to more than 500,000 retail outlets.

The next step is the customers in this category there are restaurants includes. Also the

retail shops and whole sellers are included.

The last step is the consumer in which the actual hose hold are included in this category.

INTRODUCTION: Finance Management

Sound working capital management has become a necessity in era of information

technology for a company to succeed. The best example to support this argument is the

performance of Dell computers as reported in one of the recent Fortune article. A perusal

of the article will give us an insight into how Dell could use technology for improving

the performance of components of working capital.

• Use of internet as a tool for reducing costs of linking manufacture with their supplier

and dealers.

• Outsourcing operations if the firm’s core competence does not permit the

performance of the operation effectively.

• Train the employees to accept change.

• Introduction of internet business.

• Releasing Capital by reduction in investment in inventory for improving the

profitability of operating capital.

A financial manager spends a large part of his time in managing working capital.

There are two important elements of working capital management.

• Decision on the amount of current assets to be held by a firm for efficient operations

of its business.

• Decision on financing working capital requirement.

Inadequacy or mismanagement of WORKING CAPITAL is the leading cause of many

business failures. Working capital is that portion of asset of a business which are used in

55

Page 56: 39042696 amul

current operations. They are used in the operating cycle of the firm. It is defined as the

excess of Current Assets over Current Liabilities and provisions.

Objective of Working Capital Management :

The basic objective of financial management is maximizing the Net wealth of

shareholders. A firm must earn sufficient return from its operations to ensure the

realization of this objective. There exists a positive correlation between sales and firm’s

return on its investment. The amount of earnings that a firm’s earns depends upon the

volume of sales achieved. There is the need to ensure adequate investment in current

assets, keeping pace with accelerating sales volume. Firm’s makes sales on credit. There

is always a time gap between sale of goods on credit and the realization of proceeds of

sales from the firm’s customers. Finance manager of a firm is required to finance the

operation during the time gap. Therefore, objective of Working Capital Management is to

ensure smooth functioning of the normal business operations of a firm. The firm has to

decide on the amount of Working Capital to be employed.

The firm may have a conservative policy of holding large quantum of current assets to

ensure large market share and to prevent the competitors from snatching any markets for

their products. But such a policy will affect the firm’s return on its investment. The firm

will have higher than the required amount of investment on current assets. This excess

funds locked in current assets will reduce the firm’s profitability on operating capital.

NEED FOR WORKING CAPITAL:

The need for working capital arises on account of two reasons:

56

Page 57: 39042696 amul

To finance operations during the time gap between sale of goods on credit and

realization of money from customer of the firm.

To finance investments in current assets for achieving the growth targets in sales.

Therefore finance the operations in operating cycle of a firm working capital is required.

COMPONENTS OF WORKING MANAGEMENT

There are two main components are given below:

1. Current Assets and

2. Current Liabilities.

Current Assets are:

Inventories

Sundry Debtors

Bills Receivables

Cash and Bank Balances

Short term investment

Advances such as advances for purchase of raw materials, components

and consumable stores, prepaid expenses etc.

Current Liabilities are:

Sundry Creditors

Bills Payable

Creditors for outstanding expenses

Provision for tax

Other provisions against the liabilities payable within a period of 12

months.

Net Working Capital:

Net Working Capital is the excess of current assets over current liabilities and provisions.

Net Working Capital is positive when Current Assets exceed current liabilities, and

negative when current liabilities exceed current assets. This concept has been following

practical relevance.

1. It indicates the ability of the firm to effectively use the spontaneous

finance in managing the firm’s Working Capital requirements.

2. A firm’s short term solvency is measured through the Net Working

Capital position it commands.

Efficient Working Capital Management requires that the firm’s should operate with the

amount of Net Working Capital. The data of last three years shows the margins by which

Current assets over the short term obligations and such margins were more in 2007-08 as

compared to past years. The portion of current which can be financed through long-term

assets has decreased in 2008-09 as the portion of current liabilities has proportionately

increased and hence the Net Working Capital is low in 2008-09.

STUDY ON HUMAN RESOURCE INFORMATION SYSTEM

OF

61

Page 62: 39042696 amul

STUDY OBJECTIVES :

• To understand , how human resource being managed by the organization.

• To study the maintenance of the records of their employees.

• To study if organization is using ICT for HR functions and to maintain

database.

• To study the users perception about HRIS

Definition:

“A Human Resources Information System, is a system that lets you keep track of all

your employees and information about them. It is usually done in a database or, more

often, in a series of inter-related databases “

Human Resources is an organizational function that deals with issues such as recruitment

and selection, training, appraisal, compensation and performance management of the

employee.

Information System :

A system, whether automated or manual, that comprises people, machines, and/or

methods organized to collect, process, transmit, and disseminate data that represent user

information .

HRIS Human Resource Information System (HRIS) is a systematic way of storing data

and information for each individual employee to aid planning, decision making, and

submitting of return and reports to the external agencies .

• It merges HRM as a discipline and in particular its basic HR activities and processes

with the information technology field.

• It can be used to maintain details such as employee profiles, absence reports, salary

administration and various kinds of reports.

62

Page 63: 39042696 amul

INTRODUCTION :

An information system is an inter-related set of procedures and processes to provide

information for decisions. Information is data that have been processed so that they are

meaningful. It adds to the representation of an idea. It corrects and confirms previous

information. It tells us something which we did not know. Many organisations have

computer-assisted information systems. Thus HRIS is a system that enables storing of

information of Human Resource in every aspect such as Personal, Academic,

Qualification, Family, Medical, Career and Performance Evaluation, Training &

Development & Wage and Salary of individuals. Unlike manual systems the HRIS

enables availability of all such information in a single screen. Reports on various

parameters can be generated with ease. Moreover reliability of such records is assured.

• An information system especially developed for human resource management is

referred to as HRIS – a human resource information system.

• Human resource management, when it doesn’t include the human resource planning

function, requires only a basic HRIS. If this basic HRIS is computer-supported, it is

likely to include transition processing system or management information system.

• An information system provides for the accumulation by gathering, processing by

deleting extraneous information, deciding among divergent information and putting

the information in a logical arrangement that promotes its understanding.

• Finally, the information is stored in a readily accessible configuration.

HR Information System Includes :

This system include the employee name and contact information and all or some of the

following:

• Department

• Job Title

63

Page 64: 39042696 amul

• Grade

• Salary

• Salary History

• Position History

• Employee details (Personal & Professional)

• Employee Posting information on appointment /transfer

• Employee promotion/ appointment information

• Employee Service verification details

• Employee Leave Information including(Leave available , leave availed,)

• Employee confidential report information

• Employee Training information

Needs Of HR Information System

• Human resource manager requires considerable amount of data for planning and

control of human resources and for this there is a strong need of a sound

information system.

• Efficiently storing each employee information and data for reference- personal

data management, pay roll accounting, benefits management and planning.

• Enabling informed decision making in day-to-day personnel issues, planning,

budgeting, implementing and monitoring Human Resource function.

64

Page 65: 39042696 amul

• Facilitating decision making in areas like promotion, transfer, nomination, settling

employees provident funds, retirement, gratuity, LTC, and earned leave

compensation

• Cutting costs.

• Improving accuracy

Advantages Of HR Information System

• Reduction in the amount and cost of stored human resource data.

• Availability of timely and accurate information about human assets.

• Developing of performance standards for the human resource division.

• More meaningful career planning and counselling.

EFFECTIVENESS OF HRIS

The key to the effective planning of manpower and improvement of people productivity

is an effective HRIS. However, in order to be effective an information system must take

into account the following :

Adequacy of information: Too much or too little information, both lead to defective

decision-making. Therefore, there must be some understanding regarding what

information and in how much detail and covering what periods should be maintained.

Specificity: Even where it is not possible to quantify the information, the information

should be made as specific as possible.

Relevance: Information is to be managed in the light of the requirements of the

decision makers. Therefore, HRIS focus on the needs of the decision-makers and

stakeholders rather than on what is interesting or easily available or palatable to the

65

Page 66: 39042696 amul

people. The system, therefore, must also have the built in capability for deletion and

updating of data.

Comprehensiveness: The information should be complete from the point of view of the

decision-maker giving details of who, what, how, when, where and why .

Reliability: Since the information is going to be the basis of critical decisions, it must

satisfy the requirements of validity and reliability. Moreover, to ensure effectiveness, not

only should the information provided be relevant and reliable but the delivery system

should also be the most satisfying and cost effective. A wealth of information but not

accessible when needed or available at an inhibiting personal cost in terms of energy and

time, is of hardly any use.

IT SUPPORTED HRISIn today’s enterprises, HRIS are typically Information Technology (IT) supported

systems. This is not to say that without IT HRIS cannot be introduced. But

information technology allows much greater effectiveness of HRIS than a manual

system. Some of the deficiencies of the Manual Systems which an IT based HRIS

overcomes to a considerable extent

Convenience: In IT enabled systems, data entry, update and retrieval are all

significantly faster. Redundant data may be easily replaced.

Integration: A computerized system can greatly reduce fragmentation and duplication of

data. All data can be stored in a single system to enable retrieval of complete picture of

each employee or of each defined parameter in a desired number of permutation and

combinations. Moreover, depending on the requirement, reports can be generated in

different ways that provide an accurate picture. Verification of data and error rectification

are also relatively easy in computerized systems.

Multi-user benefit

Different people can access the data simultaneously, which facilitates quick

66

dissemination across geographical and structural boundaries and facilitates faster

decision-making. Moreover, on-line data entry is possible that leads to automatic up-

dating of data resulting into better informed decisions. However, to obtain these

A CASE STUDY OF HUMAN RESOURCE INFORMATION

SYSTEM AT AMUL

Human resource information system , that enables the organization in collecting ,

storing , maintaining ,retrieving and validating data needed about its human resource .

HR data are wide in their variety, and include job history (transfers, promotions,

etc.),current and historical pay details, inventories of skills and competencies, education

and training records, performance assessment details, absence, lateness, accident ,medical

and disciplinary records, warning and suspensions, holiday entitlements, pensions data

and termination records. An HRIS normally provides an electronic database for the

storage and retrieval of this data which is, at least potentially, available to anyone who

may want to access it.

The important issue however, is- how this IT system is actually used in carrying out the HR tasks.

ERP is an information system to drive the business. It enables the organization to take systematic decision in the area of planning , execution and control based on relevant and current information .
