3.Operations management

Operations management (OM) is the business function responsible for managing the
process of creation of goods and services. It involves planning, organizing,
coordinating, and controlling all the resources needed to produce a company�s goods
and services.

The transformation role of OM, like in Fabco the transformation of synthetic raw
materials ordered from various vendors gets transformed into the required product
i.e., bags and footwear.

Marketing, on the other hand, must understand operations� capabilities, including

the types of products it can produce and the limitations of the production process.
Without communication between marketing and operations, the company may find itself
in a situation where it is producing products the customers don�t want.

Likewise, in this industry the production of certain products becomes seasonal. For
example, during the times of school opening the demand of school bags increases and
hence the shift of focus to a certain kind of product i.e., school bags
increase.Although, the demand of footwear is not so fluctuated in comparison to the
demand of bags but, during festive seasons the demand of ethnic footwear increases.
