1.2 Description of the Project
Royal Philips, commonly known as Philips) is a Dutch diversified technology company
headquartered in Amsterdam with primary divisions focused in the areas of Healthcare, Consumer
Lifestyle and Lighting. It was founded in Eindhoven in 1891 by Gerard Philips and his father
Frederik. It is one of the largest electronics companies in the world and employs around 122,000
people across more than 60 countries.
Philips is organized into three main divisions: Philips Consumer Lifestyle (formerly Philips
Consumer Electronics and Philips Domestic Appliances and Personal Care), Philips Healthcare
(formerly Philips Medical Systems) and Philips Lighting. As of 2012 Philips was the largest
manufacturer of lighting in the world measured by applicable revenues.
Power Production for the world is right now being produced by using Natural resources which are
on the verge of depletion. Many methods of electricity production uses harmful and hazardous raw
materials such as Nuclear reactors, Coal Burning, Lignite Burning..etc. Although new and advanced
methods of power production like Solar, Hydro..etc are present their initial investments are high
and requires careful planning and ample spaces. Power produced by these methods are sold to
governments and other states at higher rates.
In these times the usage of low power consumption, highly efficient LED's comes as a life saver for
many organizations and offices. As part of the Philips team we created an awareness about LED
products and its uses with B2B segments using the Save with Lighting Application. We spoke with

2.1.1 LED Technology
A light-emitting diode (LED) is a two-lead semiconductor light source. It resembles a basic pn-
junction diode, which emits light when activated. When a fitting voltage is applied to the
leads, electrons are able to recombine with electron holes within the device, releasing energy in the form
of photons. This effect is called electroluminescence, and the colour of the light (corresponding to the
energy of the photon) is determined by the energy band gap of the semiconductor.
Recent developments in LEDs permit them to be used in environmental and task lighting. LEDs have many
advantages over incandescent light sources including lower energy consumption, longer lifetime, improved
physical robustness, smaller size, and faster switching. Light-emitting diodes are now used in applications
as diverse as aviation lighting, automotive headlamps, advertising, general, traffic signals, and camera
flashes. However, LEDs powerful enough for room lighting are still relatively expensive, and require more
precise current and heat management than compact fluorescent lamp sources of comparable output.

4.1 Research Design
The Research Design involved two main phases such as Exploratory Phase and Descriptive Phase.
Exploratory Research was carried out to explore the customer’s buying factors and obtain useful insights
that could be validated through descriptive research. This involved Secondary Data collection, Expert
Interviews with Philips Personals and Expert Interviews with Customers. The Expert Interviews with
Customers were carried out with Key Account Customers so as to understand their view point of Philips
LED products and their key buying behaviours.
In the Descriptive Phase we divided the B2B segments into different groups based on the Industry. Each
groups were targeted with a general questionnaire to understand their company's existing lighting system
and an analysis of their power consumption was made and a report was submitted to the Company which
was targeted. Based on the report we would suggest recommendations about the various benefits of using
LED products and once we have created a view point we would collect all necessary information about the
Company and forward it to our Mentor who would take the information and conduct a sales pitch.
4.2 Exploratory Research
The Exploratory Research involved three main parts
1. Secondary Research
2. Expert Interviews
4.2.1 Secondary Research
Secondary Research involved research about the LED Industry, finding out competitors,
competitors strategy, Market strength of Philips LED Products. Journals, Newspaper ads, TV Ads,
Websites, Articles, PDF documents, Youtube, Social Media websites were studied to understand
about the Industry. Some of the findings were as follows.
1. LED Lamps has longer life than Conventional CFL's.
2. Price of LED quoted by other companies were lesser than Philips LED Products.
8/9/2019 Philips Report_Vineeth Vijayan
18/26
Amrita School of Business, Coimbatore Page 18
3. Philips LED products were welcomed across all Social Media websites for their Energy
Efficiency.
4. Continuous decline of LED retail prices, dropping at a rate of 20-25% per year compared to
incumbent technologies where prices are flat or are declining much more slowly. A
narrowing price differential between LEDs and more traditional forms of lighting is
therefore slowly removing one of the key barriers to mass adoption.
5. Payback period of LEDs are continuously shrinking along with the LED retail prices. Based
on extensive research in Japan where energy prices are very high, thus lowering the time to
payback for more efficient bulbs, customers have a 10% chance of adopting a technology if
payback is two years, a 30% chance if payback is one year, and a 40% if payback is six
months. Therefore, the time to payback metric helps to predict LED adoption with some
historical and empirical accuracy. Hence there is an expected market penetration in the
Indian Lighting Industry in the coming years.
Fig no 2: Payback period vs. probability of adoption in LEDs
6. Unlike other incandescent lights, LED lights does not release heat energy into the
surrounding environment resulting in a green environment . Some of the waste heat is
produced within the LED itself during the conversion of electricity into light. This waste
heat must be properly removed from the lighting system to maximize fixture performance
and to avoid damage to the LEDs.
8/9/2019 Philips Report_Vineeth Vijayan
19/26
Amrita School of Business, Coimbatore Page 19
7. Many manufacturing companies rely on continuous usage of lamps and are frequently
subjected to Load shedding. So they expect LED lights that can withstand load shedding
problems.
8. Another main issue is the Lumen Depreciation, as many of the textile manufacturing
companies repeatedly report this issue. They say that TLED lights does not provideequivalent brightness compared with the traditional lights. This factor actually prevents
them from moving into LED technology.
4.2.2 Expert Interviews
Expert Interviews were conducted with Philips Personnel and Key Accounts customer so as to gain
in depth knowledge about the various products, buying behavior of customers, lighting needs of
various customers across different industries.
Insights gained from Expert Interview with Mr. Laljith K, Sales Executive, Philips Lighting,
