Company Profile of DICV


There is a great desire among Indian customers for a world class truck which they can
proudly call their own. The need of the hour is a truck that will give them a high value on
their investment. With this perspective, Daimler AG incorporated Daimler India Commercial
Vehicles (DICV) as a wholly-owned subsidiary in 2008, in order to create world-class
products, to be manufactured indigenously in partnership with Indian suppliers.

Currently, Daimler is present in the Indian market with the Mercedes-Benz brand of
trucks. Beginning 2012, DICV initiated production of commercial vehicles under the
uniquely Indian brand BharatBenz. Towards this objective, DICV had invested Rs.4,400
crores in establishing a state-of-the-art manufacturing plant at Oragadam near Chennai,
including an extensive research & development arm.

Subsequent to the launch of an all new brand "BharatBenz", DICV set to take its
vision and mission into the market. After a successful Premiere of its trucks in March 2012,
DICV inaugurated its state-of-the art plant at Oragadam, near Chennai, in April 2012. Later,
in June 2012, it began production of the Heavy-duty trucks. This was followed by a slew of
dealerships that were inaugurated. On 26 September 2012, DICV launched its Heavy-duty
trucks after an intense period of testing. February 2013, witnessed the launch of the
Light/Medium duty range. DICV also launched the new FUSO range of trucks at its plant on
23 May 2013, as part of its well-coordinated Asia Business Model.

Daimler India Commercial Vehicles Pvt. Ltd (DICV), a 100% wholly owned subsidiary
of Daimler AG, on 10th July 2013, rolled out the 5000th truck from its plant at Oragadam,
near Chennai. DICV is stabilizing its production line of all its launched models. Currently,
DICV produces the 2523, 3123, 2528, 914, 1214, 4923, 4928, 3128, 1623 & 1217 (Heavy,
Medium/Light-duty rigid & tipper trucks) with several more variants.

On MARCH 6TH 2014, Daimler laid the foundation stone for its new bus plant. The new
bus manufacturing plant is spread across an area of 27.91 acres within the existing premises
of DICV. The bus plant manufactures and assemble buses under the Mercedes-Benz and
BharatBenz brands and will be completed by the 2nd quarter 2015. The DICV plant in
Oragadam will thus be the only Daimler Truck plant worldwide, that manufactures three
brands of Trucks and Buses, as well as engines under one roof. Daimler India buses are
offered in 9t, 16t and above 16t categories in both front and rear engine configurations. An
investment of INR 425 Cr has been earmarked for the bus project in India for an installed
capacity of 1500 units in the initial phase. The capacity can be further expanded to 4000 units
subsequently. On 10th April 2014, Daimlers BharatBenz trucks rode on high gear and
crossed 10,000 units sale. In the end of 2016, Daimler achieved the following:

Sales of domestic vehicles (all variants) crossed 45,000


Export vehicles sales (all variants) grew 117% YoY to 4,300
3 new launches planned and ready for 2017-
o New Generation HDT in April 2017
o New Light Duty Trucks TF Titan for export markets
o 16 Ton Bus to be launched in Q2/Q3 of 2017

Executive Summary
The Supply Chain Management department is divided into various divisions namely
Power train, Vehicle, In Bound Logistics, Out Bound Logistics, In Plant Logistics,
Consolidation Centre and more. Each division is tasked with ensuring the supply and
availability of particular parts and aggregates to the production line. I was working in the
MHE department which is responsible for plan for every parts used in production line,
logistics Infrastructure necessary for material storage, handling and movement, packaging
concerns and resolution process, packaging design and development.

The Supply Chain and Logistics (SCML) department handles more than 6000
different parts from about 280 local suppliers across India. These suppliers are spread out
across various regions and cities like Chennai, Coimbatore, Pune, Pithampur, Rajkot and
Delhi. In addition, there are many parts that are imported and many parts that are under
development for localization and exports, which are also handled by the SCML department
through its Consolidation Centre. Finally, the finished vehicles are also transported by
SCML. During the course of the training, the working of different sub-departments was
studied and different parameters were evaluated based on the criticality and importance for
keeping the Heavy Duty Trucks, Medium Duty Trucks and Bus production lines running.

Every team of the supply chain management is interconnected with other teams, and a
common reporting standard was developed, so that key KPIs and aggregate supportability
numbers are easily available for all teams.

The main goal of the project need to connect all supply chain activities by inventory
and space reduction, efficient storage and handling , reduction of truck turnaround time and
by reduction of multiple handling. JIT implementation of Seoyon-E-Hwa will result in
savings of 3 lacs INR and 35 sq. m. of storage space.

Work Packages under JIT implementation for Seoyon-E-Hwa


1) Project Preparation

It is an attempt to identify and define project work (goals and objectives) and to establish an
efficient decision making process for managing further planning and development of the
project.

Following are the steps involved in preparation phase:-

Prepare Project Charter

Align with the project members

For JIT project different department stakeholders alignment is must where appropriate
project participants are working within acceptable tolerances to develop and meet a uniformly
defined and understood set of project objectives. Aligning the project team involves
developing clearly understood objectives for all team members and gaining the commitment
to work toward those goals. Different project team involved in JIT is MHE, IBL, SCQM,
PPS, and IPL.

Prepare weekly planner

Tactical Implementation Plan is derived from a common understanding of the project need to
change or improve, and is the common tool that is used to make it clear to all, the actions
required to achieve the JIT goals and targets. A Tactical implementation plan incorporates the
resultant actions from the gap analysis phase which enables the move from current to future
state. To plan and execute actions effectively requires the use of a standard and structured
scheduling tool. The T.I.P. is constructed to show the tasks that are required to be completed
in a specific timescale, and make visible the progress against each task to be able to review it

Internship Report || Swati Singh (PGDM Executive) Page 25


Daimler India Commercial Vehicles 2017

on a regular basis. Missed milestones need highlighting when known, and then the standard
escalation process needs to be followed.

Internship Report || Swati Singh (PGDM Executive) Page 26


Daimler India Commercial Vehicles 2017

Prepare Project member availability calendar

This calendar specifies the duration different stakeholders must give for the project.

2) Part inventory and storage space analysis - Current state mapping

This includes the activities related to holding parts and the processes of counting and
transacting the parts as it moved out of LC.

Kickoff the project with supplier

Kickoff meeting is the first meeting with the project team and the client of the project. This
meeting would follow definition of the base elements for the project and other project
planning activities. This meeting introduces the members of the project team and the client
and provides the opportunity to discuss the role of team member. Other base elements in the
project that involve the client may also be discussed at this meeting (schedule, status
reporting, etc.).

Collect the PFEP data

PFEP is a database that is maintained to record information of each part, part number, pack
quantity, variant list, part description, point of consumption, packaging dimensions, loop
quantity, stock at DICV etc.

Daimler India Commercial Vehicles 2017

Monitoring the line stoppage


Cross verify with IPL team, there was production line stoppage because of Seoyon-E-Hwa
parts in last 3 months.

Vehicle assembly calculation

TAKT time is the available production time divided by the units a customer demands. For
HDT line takt time is 8.4min (540/64) and for MDT line 13.5min (540/40).

Collect the inventory level @ DICV

Present inventory level data is collected from SAP. Inventory level in the plant (in days) =
Lead time for replenishment (in days) + Safety stock (in days). Safety stock depends on
factors such as; unplanned production peaks, quality rejection of supplier parts, Truck
breakdown etc. Based on previous record of production fluctuation and supplier part rejection
rate safety stock can be defined between 1.5 to 2 truck load of inventory

Internship Report || Swati Singh (PGDM Executive) Page 29

Collect the data for last 3 month production volume

Last 12 months data is considered for calculation of daily peak volume.

Calculate the average demand based on production volume

Forecast 3 months data is taken. Highest consumption for particular months among the 3 is
considered and is divided by 24 days (no. of working days) which in return is divided by the
usage per vehicle to get the average volume.

Collect the data from PPS for next 3 months forecast/Plan and Calculate the
average demand based on forecast volume

PPS team looks into the production planning and scheduling after getting details from
marketing and sales team about market demand. On basis of market demand they prepare the
forecast value for each and every part. This will give the average daily consumption volume.
Based on which operation stock and safety stock at DICV is calculated. This further will
define the truck trip and volume.

Calculate the demand fluctuation

Demand fluctuation of daily peak production volume is finalized by 3 different stakeholders


of the project PPS team, SCQM team and MHE team. MHE calculate peak production on
basis of 12 consumption data. 391 days consumption data is counted and divided into the
interval of 5, from 1-5 to 65-70.The highest peak volume as per number of days parts
consume is consider as peak volume for the particular part.

Collect the data of Delivery vs. Plan (From Supplier to DICV)


Cross verifying the trigger list which is sent by PPS team to supplier about daily consumption
and what is receive at DICV is same. If there is mismatch again list is sent to supplier through
supply manager is equalize in next delivery from supplier end.

Collect the data of rework (% of rejection as incoming)


This step involves if Palletization of items which are to be moved to quality inspection area
Sampling Plan agreed between PQ&IPL to be used for segregation. Preventive quality team
will look for defects in the parts and send to claim pool management (CPM) team for
rectification if can be done at DICV else parts will be reverted back to supplier. There is no
rework and rejection in last 3 months for Seoyon-E-Hwa parts.

Collect the past 3 month line stoppage data due to Supplier parts

This line stoppage data is from IPL team and there is no line stoppage due to Seoyon-E-Hwa
parts.
i) Repackaging / standard packaging Out of 72 parts 5 parts repacking is done and
rest 67 parts are kept in containers received from supplier end.
ii) Container loop For 72 parts 341 containers is in the loop.
iii) Container classification - Out of total 72 parts 38 parts are kept in GLT whereas
34 parts are kept in KLT.

Packaging verification at LC

Physical verification of each and every parts of Seoyon-E-Hwa is done at LC. Which include
counting the number of pallets, bins/container dimension, pack quantity and internal Kanban
cards and area occupied by parts.

System Requirement
BRS is the system requirement for JIT implementation of Seoyon-E-Hwa parts. Benefits
arising out of this development (including report) / enhancement / change: -
Implementation of E-Kanban by sending automatic trigger to supplier for parts
dispatch based on the consumption of parts at line-side.
Automated trigger to the supplier for Just-in-time parts delivery.
Real time transparency on physical stock through intranet portal.

Internship Report || Swati Singh (PGDM Executive) Page 42


Daimler India Commercial Vehicles 2017

Portal should send the mail regarding consumption information to the supplier at
regular defined interval.

Field details needed for creation of BRS portal:

Fields Description
Vendor Code JIT supplier
Plant 6365
Part Number All parts from the selected vendor based on the vendor code
Opening stock Stock immediately after the trigger time
Received stock Stock when GRN is made
Consumed Stock transfer from PP10 to WP10 ( Consider open posting for calculations)
stock
Safety Stock Reflect the existing safety stock (in Nos.) from SAP
Rejection Consider the RJ10 value
Available stock Opening stock + GRN - Consumed stock

6) Proposal for project targets

4C Proposal

DICV DICV proposal
System Readiness
Since BRS is under progress ICR is SAP T-code SE16 is used for sending consumption
trigger to supplier. As per trigger supplier will be ready with FG parts in DICV pallets at their
end.

Prepare plan for reducing TAT


Truck turnaround for plat 2 is found to be optimum but for plant 3 i.e. Thiruvallur plant the
TAT is very high and on continuous observation it was observed that ideal time after
unloading of empty pallets was very high (around 8 hours) thus with implementation and
increasing lop quantity supplier had been suggested to keep the dispatch goods ready at
dispatch area in fully packed condition so that loading process can be done faster and thus
TAT can be reduced drastically.

Inventory level calculation @ DICV

After implementation of JIT total inventory for Seoyon-E-Hwa parts reduces from 24773 to
9618. As a result of inventory reduction inventory cost reduces from 2695110.57 to
2385207.04 resulting in saving of 11.5%.

Internship Report || Swati Singh (PGDM Executive) Page 43

Storage space calculation @ DICV

After JIT implementation inventory storage space reduces from 248.86m2 to 213.24m2.Total
area saving of 35.62m2 is done. This results in cost saving of 14 lacs almost 14.31%.

Truck loading pattern proposal

2 trips per day for plant#2 and loading pattern is shown below

For plant#3 1 trips per day is shown below with pallet loading pattern is shown below

4C proposal

1. Container
2. Container presentation
3. Consumption
4. Container delivery internal logistics

Kanban calculation

Kanban calculation is done keeping 3 days of loop quantity for plant#2 and 4 days of loop
quantity for plant#3.Although we have tried to send e-trigger rather than physical Kanban
cards to avoid the loop holes in the system after fixing the part quantities with IPL team
(based on consumption stock on daily basis).

Quantify KPI targets

Key performance indicators (KPI) are a set of quantifiable measures that a company uses to
gauge its performance over time. These metrics are used to determine a company's progress
in achieving its strategic and operational goals, and also to compare a company's finances and
performance against other businesses within its industry.

In this project inventory cost saving of 3lacs is calculated and space saving of 35m2 is
calculated which brings cost saving of 14lacs.

SWOT analysis on Implementation of End to End Project

Strengths Weakness

1. Manageable stock at DICV as per 1. Dependence on internal Kanban


production daily peak volume demands adherence is a major issue. Loss and
misplacement of physical Kanban
2. After JIT Human/BOM errors will
reduce because as physical qty will be cards and for some parts physical cards
used to send triggers are not present. There is mismatch of
Kanban card quantity and pack
3. No physical kanban cards required quantity of parts.
thus no tension of lost or missed cards

Opportunities Threats

1. JIT helps in inventory reduction and 1. If there is sudden increase in daily


storage space reduction resulting in peak volumes then there is a possibility
major cost saving for company. If of line stoppage and production delay.
expanded to other suppliers will add to
companys turnover. 2. In case of line stoppage there is
manual material movements without
Kanban cards

Internship Report || Swati Singh (PGDM Executive) Page 46


Daimler India Commercial Vehicles 2017

CONCLUSION
The JIT production process means inventory levels are kept to a minimum. A low inventory
figure on the balance sheet means a higher inventory turnover ratio, making the company
look more efficient. A company with little to no inventory has a much higher ratio than a
company with equivalent COGS expenses that utilizes a more anticipatory production
strategy. High inventory turnover ratios are considered a good sign of operational efficiency,
effective purchasing management, and productive use of advertising and promotional
campaigns aimed at generating sales.
