Rationale for the Study
-

10/80
10
In todays intensely competitive, rapidly changing and highly complexenvironment characterize by diminishing customer loyalty, the need to
be market focused and customer centric is more critical than any other
time in past. It is highly imperative for every organization to retain and
use valuable information about their customer to enhance their business
strategies and product and service offerings. Today, the key focus area
of much organization is identification of a link between customer
satisfaction and performance. However, satisfaction as the confirmation
of expectation has started to be conceptualizing almost as a threshold for
customers. The delivery of satisfaction is the minimum the customer
expects.
After completing the primary formalities for vocational training, the
approach followed for the project was by .having debatable discussion
on various topics with the project guide, and keeping in mind the total
time duration 8 weeks, the project title Study of the Customer
Relationship Management for AGR automobiles Hyderabad was
decided. Primarily, the researcher was given some random idea about
this project at AGR automobiles. After having very basic understanding
about its objective and its importance in the organization, helped in
understanding the project better so as to make platform for analysis.

The objective behind making this project is to have the knowledge of
the practices of Maruti Services by the Marketing Department. MarutiSuzuki India Limited 50% smaller, fewer, lighter and more beautiful.
style and design quotient (formerly Maruti Udyog Limited), a
subsidiary of Suzuki Motor Corporation of Japan, is India's largest
passenger car company, accounting for over of the domestic car market.
From its very inception,Maruti Suzuki has brought to India,a simple yet
powerful apanese philosophy The benefits of product quality, safety and
cost consciousness have been fused and filliped in order to present the
Indian populace with cars high on the . The extreme relevance of our
brands in the Indian car arena, in beat with the lifestyles and desires of
our changing nation has made us the market favourites, for over two
decades. Gaining ground from strength to strength, we are inspirited
now more than ever,to push boundaries and conquer new horizons.
The Indian economy grew at an impressive 9 percent in GDP during
2007-08. Of late, inflation has hardened and oil and certain other
commodity prices have shot up, resulting in higher interest rates and an
uncertain outlook for the very near term. However, the country's
economy is still expected to continue to grow robustly, if at a slightly
slower pace.

Company Profile
Maruti Suzuki is one of India's leading automobile manufacturers and
the market leader in the car segment, both in terms of volume of vehicles
sold and revenue earned. Until recently, 18.28% of the company was
owned by the Indian government, and 54.2% by Suzuki of Japan. The
Indian government held an initial public offering of 25% of the company
in June 2003. As of May 10, 2007, Govt. of India sold its complete share
to Indian financial institutions. With this, Govt. of India no longer has
stake in Maruti Udyog.
Maruti Udyog Limited (MUL) was established in February 1981, though
the actual production commenced in 1983 with the Maruti 800,based on
the Suzuki Alto key car which at the time was the only modern car
available in India, its' only competitors- the Hindustan Ambassador and
Premier Padmini were both around 25 years out of date at that point.
Through 2004, Maruti has produced over 5 Million vehicles. Marutis are
sold in India and various several other countries, depending upon export
orders. Cars similar to Marutis (but not manufactured by Maruti Udyog)
are sold by Suzuki and manufactured in Pakistan and other South Asian
countries. Its manufacturing facilities are located at two facilities
Gurgaon and Manesar south of New Delhi. Marutis Gurgaon facility
has an installed capacity of 350,000 units per annum. The Manesar
facilities, launched in February 2007 comprise a vehicle assembly plant
with a capacity of 100,000 units per year and a Diesel Engine plant with

an annual capacity of 100,000 engines and transmissions. Manesar and
Gurgaon facilities have a combined capability to produce over 700,000units annually. During 2007-08, Maruti Suzuki sold 764,842 cars, of
which 53,024 were exported. Maruti Suzuki offers 13 models, Maruti
800, Omni, Alto, Versa, Ritz, Gypsy, A Star, Wagon R, Zen Estilo,

Japan as a completely built unit (CBU), remaining all models are
manufactured in Maruti Suzuki's Gurgaon Plant.
Established in December 1983, Maruti Suzuki India Ltd. has ushered a
revolution in the Indian car industry. This car is meant for an average
Indian individual which is affordable as well as has elegant appeal.
Maruti Suzuki India Ltd. is the result of collaboration of Maruti with
Suzuki of Japan. At this time, the Indian car market had stagnated at a
volume of 30,000 to 40,000 cars for the decade ending 1983. This was
from where Maruti took over.
The company has crossed the milestone of becoming the first Indian
company in March 1994, by manufacturing in totality one million
vehicles. It is known for its mass-production and selling of more than a
million cars. Maruti Suzuki India Ltd. is the India's largest automobile
company which entered in the market with affirmed aim to render high
quality fuel efficient and low - cost vehicles.More than half the
number of cars sold in India wear a Maruti Suzuki badge. We are a

Sales figure in the year 1993 has reached up to 1,96,820. Maruti comes
in a variety of models in the 800 segment. Its cars operate on Japanese
technology, pliable to Indian conditions and Indian car users. By the
year 1998-99, the company has modernize the existing facilities and
expand its capacity by 1,00,000 units.
Recently to ward off the growing competition, Maruti has completed Rs.
4 billion expansion project at the current site, which has raised the total
production capacity to over 3,20,000 vehicles per annum. With the

Interestingly with a brand new offering A-star, Maruti Suzuki is ready to
take on European markets.Maruti Suzuki sold 53,024 units during 2007-08. This is the highest ever export volume in a year for the company,
and marked a growth of 35 per cent over the previous year.
Maruti Suzuki has exported over 552,000 units cumulatively with about
280,000 units to Europe and Israel Big ticket to Europe .The year 2009
holds the big ticket to Europe.
The export effort will be led by Suzuki's fourth World Strategic Model,
A-star, which is being manufactured exclusively in Maruti Suzuki.
Maruti Suzuki has been exporting cars for more than a decade, and
customers in India draw reassurance from the fact that cars
manufactured by Maruti Suzuki have a place in the most demanding
markets. Quote UnQuote, S. Nakanishi, MD & CEO, MSIL The first
export shipment of Maruti Suzuki's World Strategic Model A-star set out
for Europe in early January from the newly built Mundra port. Branded
as Suzuki Alto in Europe, this marks Suzuki's re-entry into the European
small-car market. Maruti Suzuki had unveiled the Suzuki World
Strategic Model A-star in mid-November 2008.
The car has been tastefully designed keeping in mind the discerning
European and Indian customers. The compact car with a brand new
design is also one of the finest in terms of environment friendliness.
Maruti Suzuki is looking forward to increase its export volumes
manifold and enhance its presence in Europe through the A-star. To

meet the infrastructure demand Maruti Suzuki has forged partnerships
with the Adani group to set up a mega car terminal at Mundra.
Dedicated car terminal facility
The mega car terminal facility being developed at Mundra is a part of
the long term agreement signed between Maruti Suzuki and MPSEZL
last year to develop a dedicated car handling facility. The mega car
terminal, being built with an initial investment of Rs 100 crore (INR 1
billion) will conform to international standards. The facility is expected
to bring global efficiencies to the auto logistics industry and will help
bring India on the global automotive logistics map.The car terminal is
expected to be fully operational by March 2009. The facility would also
house a state-of-the-art 'Wash Inspection and Waxing Centre', a car
stockyard and a dedicated 'buffer area' for cars to be parked before
loading onto the ship.
"Maruti Suzuki has ambitious plans for exports. Maruti Suzuki has the
technology, skills and manufacturing capabilities to build global quality
cars for international markets. However, to match our export ambitions,
we needed infrastructure support like a dedicated car terminal. With this
initiative and with partners like MPSEZL and NYK, we have confidence
that our exports volumes would grow manifold. It is indeed a big leap in
automotive logistics for India." Quote UnQuote, S. Nakanishi, MD &
CEO, MSIL at the inaugural shipment.

Key success factor
(1)The Quality Advantage
-
7/30/2019 Customer Relationship Project 1
32/80
32
Maruti Suzuki owners experience fewer problems with their vehicles
than any other car manufacturer in India (J.D. Power IQS Study 2004).The Alto was chosen No.1 in the premium compact car segment and the
Esteem in the entry level mid - size car segment across 9 parameters.
(2)A Buying Experience like No Other
Maruti Suzuki has a sales network of 307 state-of -the-art showrooms
across 189 cities, with a workforce of over 6000 trained sales personnel
to guide MUL customers in finding the right car.
(3)Quality Service across 1036 Cities
In the J.D. Power CSI Study 2004, Maruti Suzuki scored the highest
across all 7 parameters: least problems experienced with vehicle
serviced, highest service quality, best in-service experience, best service
delivery, best service advisor experience, most user-friendly service and
best service initiation experience.92% of Maruti Suzuki owners feel that
work gets done right the first time during service. The J.D. Power CSI
study 2004 also reveals that 97% of Maruti Suzuki owners would
probably recommend the same make of vehicle, while 90% owners
would probably repurchase the same make of vehicle.
(4)One Stop Shop
At Maruti Suzuki, customers will find all car related needs met less than
one roof. Whether it is easy finance, insurance, fleet management
-
7/30/2019 Customer Relationship Project 1

33
services, exchange- Maruti Suzuki is set to provide a single-window
solution for all car related needs.
(5) The Low Cost Maintenance Advantage
The acquisition cost is unfortunately not the only cost customers face
when buying a car. Although a car may be affordable to buy, it may not
necessarily be affordable to maintain, as some of its regularly used spare
parts may be priced quite steeply. Not so in the case of a Maruti Suzuki.
It is in the economy segment that the affordability of spares is most
competitive, and it is here where Maruti Suzuki shines.
(6)Lowest Cost of Ownership
The highest satisfaction ratings with regard to cost of ownership among
all models are all Maruti Suzuki vehicles: Zen, Wagon R, Esteem,
Maruti 800, Alto and Omni.
(7) Technological Advantage
It has introduced the superior 16 * 4 Hypertech engines across the entire
Maruti Suzuki range. This new technology harnesses the power of a
brainy 16-bit computer to a fuel-efficient 4-valve engine to create
optimum engine delivery. This means every Maruti Suzuki owner gets
the ideal combination of power and performance from his car.

C.R.M
Customer relationship management (CRM) consists of the processes
a company uses to track and organize its contacts with its current and
prospective customers. CRM software is used to support these
processes; information about customers and customer interactions can be
entered, stored and accessed by employees in different company
departments. Typical CRM goals are to improve services provided tocustomers, and to use customer contact information for targeted
marketing.
While the term CRM generally refers to a software-based approach to
handling customer relationships, most CRM software vendors stress that
a successful CRM effort requires a holistic approach. CRM initiativesoften fail because implementation was limited to software installation,
without providing the context, support and understanding for employees
to learn, and take full advantage of the information systems. CRM tools
should be implemented "only after a well-devised strategy and
operational plan are put in place". CRM can be implemented without
major investments in software, but software is often necessary to explore
the full benefits of a CRM strategy. Other problems occur when failing
to think of sales as the output of a process that itself needs to be studied
and taken into account when planning automation. From the outside,
customers interacting with a company perceive the business as a single

entity, despite often interacting with a number of employees in different
roles and departments. CRM is a combination of policies, processes, andstrategies implemented by an organization to unify its customer
interactions and provide a means to track customer information. It
involves the use of technology in attracting new and profitable
customers, while forming tighter bonds with existing ones.
CRM includes many aspects which relate directly to one another:
Front office operations Direct interaction with customers, e.g.face to face meetings, phone calls, e-mail, online services etc.
Back office operations Operations that ultimately affect theactivities of the front office (e.g., billing, maintenance, planning,
marketing, advertising, finance, manufacturing, etc.) Business relationships Interaction with other companies and
partners, such as suppliers/vendors and retail outlets/distributors,
industry networks (lobbying groups, trade associations). This
external network supports front and back office activities.
Analysis Key CRM data can be analyzed in order to plan target-marketing campaigns, conceive business strategies, and judge the
success of CRM activities (e.g., market share, number and types of
customers, revenue, profitability).
Proponents of CRM software claim that it doesn't only allow more
effective ways of managing customer relationships, but also more

customer-centric ways of doing business. Executives often cite the need
for the proper tools as a barrier to delivering the experience theircustomers expect. A 2009 study of over 860 corporate executives
revealed only 39% believe that their employees have tools and authority
to solve customer problems.
Types/variations of CRM
There are several different approaches to CRM, with different software
packages focusing on different aspects. In general, Customer Service,
Campaign Management and Sales Force Automation (SFA) form the
core of the system (with SFA being the most popular).
Operational CRM
Operational CRM provides support to "front office" business processes,
e.g. to sales, marketing and service staff. Interactions with customers are
generally stored in customers' contact histories, and staff can retrieve
customer information as necessary. The contact history provides staff
members with immediate access to important information on the
customer (products owned, prior support calls etc.), eliminating the need
to individually obtain this information directly from the customer.
Reaching to the customer at right time at right place is preferable.
Operational CRM processes customer data for a variety of purposes:
Managing campaigns
-
7/30/2019 Customer Relationship Project 1
38/80
38
Enterprise Marketing Automation
Sales Force Automation Sales Management System
Analytical CRM
Analytical CRM analyzes customer data for a variety of purposes:
Designing and executing targeted marketing campaigns
Designing and executing campaigns, e.g. customer acquisition,cross-selling, up-selling, addon-selling
Analyzing customer behavior in order to make decisions relating toproducts and services (e.g. pricing, product development)
Management information system (e.g. financial forecasting andcustomer profitability analysis)
Analytical CRM generally makes heavy use of data mining and other
techniques to produce useful results for decision-making. It is at the
analytical stage that the importance of fully integrated CRM software
becomes most apparent. Logically speaking, the more information
that the analytical software has available for analysis, the better its
predictions and recommendations will be.
Sales Intelligence CRM
-
7/30/2019 Customer Relationship Project 1
39/80
39
Sales Intelligence CRM is similar to Analytical CRM, but is intended as
a more direct sales tool. Features include alerts sent to sales staffregarding:
Cross-selling/Up-selling/Switch-selling opportunities Customer drift Sales performance
Customer trends Customer margins Customer alignment
Campaign Management
Campaign management combines elements of Operational and
Analytical CRM. Campaign management functions include:
Target groups formed from the client base according to selectedcriteria
Sending campaign-related material (e.g. on special offers) toselected recipients using various channels (e.g. e-mail, telephone,
SMS, post)
Tracking, storing, and analyzing campaign statistics, includingtracking responses and analyzing trends
Collaborative CRM
-
7/30/2019 Customer Relationship Project 1
40/80
40
Collaborative CRM covers aspects of a company's dealings with
customers that are handled by various departments within a company,such as sales, technical support and marketing. Staff members from
different departments can share information collected when interacting
with customers. For example, feedback received by customer support
agents can provide other staff members with information on the services
and features requested by customers. Collaborative CRM's ultimate goal
is to use information collected by all departments to improve the quality
of services provided by the company. CRM also plays a role of data
distributor within customers, producers and partners. Producers can use
CRM information to develop products or find new market. CRM
facilitates communication between customers, suppliers and partner by
using new information system such email, link and data bank.
Consumer Relationship CRM
Consumer Relationship System (CRS) covers aspects of a company's
dealing with customers handled by the Consumer Affairs and Customer
Relations contact centers within a company. Representatives handle in-
bound contact from anonymous consumers and customers. Early
warnings can be issued regarding product issues (e.g. item recalls) and
current consumer sentiment can be tracked (voice of the customer).

Strategy
Several CRM software packages are available, and they vary in their
approach to CRM. However, as mentioned above, CRM is not just a
technology but rather a comprehensive, customer-centric approach to an
organization's philosophy of dealing with its customers. This includes
policies and processes, front-of-house customer service, employee
training, marketing, systems and information management. Hence, it isimportant that any CRM implementation considerations stretch beyond
technology toward the broader organizational requirements.
Implementation issues
Many CRM project "failures" are also related to data quality and
availability. Data cleaning is a major issue. If a company's CRM strategy
is to track life-cycle revenues, costs, margins, and interactions between
individual customers, this must be reflected in all business processes.
Data must be extracted from multiple sources (e.g.,
departmental/divisional databases such as sales, manufacturing, supply
chain, logistics, finance, service etc.), which requires an integrated,
comprehensive system in place with well-defined structures and high
data quality. Data from other systems can be transferred to CRM
systems using appropriate interfaces.
-
7/30/2019 Customer Relationship Project 1
42/80
42
Because of the company-wide size and scope of many CRM
implementations, significant pre-planning is essential for smooth roll-out. This pre-planning involves a technical evaluation of the data
available and the technology employed in existing systems. This
evaluation is critical to determine the level of effort needed to integrate
this data.
Equally critical is the human aspect of the implementation. A successfulimplementation requires an understanding of the expectations and needs
of the stakeholders involved. An executive sponsor should also be
obtained to provide high-level management representation of the CRM
project. An effective tool for identifying technical and human factors
before beginning a CRM project is a pre-implementation checklist. A
checklist can help ensure any potential problems are identified early in
the process.
Privacy and data security System
One of the primary functions of CRM software is to collect information
about customers. When gathering data as part of a CRM solution, a
company must consider the desire for customer privacy and data
security, as well as the legislative and cultural norms. Some customers
prefer assurances that their data will not be shared with third parties
without their prior consent and that safeguards are in place to prevent
illegal access by third parties.

Maruti Suzuki CRM
Maruti Suzuki achieves an overall C.S.I Score of 820 an a 1000 point
Scale, overall customer satisfaction with dealer service for the industry
improves slightly in 2008-up by 3 points since 2007,with six of the 11
ranked brands demonstrating gains. While ranking below the industry
average Tata and Mahindra emerge as the most improved brands,
respectively, particularly in the areas of services initiation, quality of
services advisors and in services experience.
Maruti Suzuki has effectively implemented simple producers that
improved satisfaction with the value of work performed and perceptions
of the fairness and honesty of the dealer, such as greeting service
customers quickly upon arrival and fully explaining charges and
repairs, said Mohit Arora senior director at J.P Power Asia Pacific,
Singapore Instituting these low.-effort yet high-impact practices helps
to foster trust among customers, which is critical to building loyalty for
future service and sales opportunities.
The study finds that the proportion of vehicles brought in and serviced
within the same day has increased to 55 percent this year from 49
percent in 2007.Quick completion of service is a key source of
-
7/30/2019 Customer Relationship Project 1

customers delight, particularly for customers who visit the dealer for
routine maintenance.
In 2008 India Customer Satisfaction Index(C.S.I) study is based on
responses from more than 5,594 owners of nearly 41 different vehicle
models. The study was fielded from June to August those customers
who serviced their vehicles at authorized services facilities.
S.M.R.-(service marketing report)-
Services marketing report is the detail of the customers who purchased
the car from the showroom. In this report we have the data about the
Customer purchasing date and the time of car servicing. Means by this
report we remind to customer that it is the time of your car servicing .So
we ask some questions for customer satisfaction these are the following
questions:
Ques.1-are you aware of the maintained schedule of yours cars?
Ques2-as per record you cars service in due on-will you like to make
a booking?

Research Methodology
Research methodology is away to systematically solve research problem.
In it we study the various step that are generally adopted by researcher in
studying his research problem along with logic behind them. It is
necessary for a researcher to know not only the research
method/techniques but also the methodology. It may be noted, in the
context of planning & development that the significance of research
lines in its quality and not in quantity. Researcher should know how to
apply particular research techniques, but they also need to know which
of these methods or techniques, are relevant and which are not, and what
would they mean and indicate and why?
Meaning of Research
Research is common parlance refers to a search for knowledge. In fact
research is an act of scientific investigation.

The project was divided in to the following steps.
To decide objective of the study
1.To decide objective of the Study:-
This step is also research problem. problem definition is the most critical
part of the research process. research problem definition involves
specifying the information needed by management. The main objective
of the study are:

To study the awareness of Maruti Suzuki & AGR automobiles inHyderabad.
To find out the level of customer satisfaction with the offers,discount and services offered by Maruti Suzuki & AGR
automobiles.
2. To decide research design & application:-
Research design involves defining the research problem, determining
how to collect the data and from whom, establishing the way the data
will be analyzed estimating costs and the preparation of the research
approach. For this study, descriptive research was selected.
3. To decide Source of data there are two source of data
Primary DataSecondary Data
Primary data:-
Primary data is the original data collected specifically for the problem.
-
7/30/2019 Customer Relationship Project 1
49/80
49
Reason for selecting primary data:-
In terms of primary data a questionnaire has been used to interview
desire sample units that give accurate and up to data information as well
better to research problem.
Research approaches: - Primary data can be collected in five main
ways: through Observation, focus groups, surveys, behavioral data, and
experiments.
Research instruments:- Marketing researchers have a choice of three
main research Instruments in collecting primary data:
Questionnaires: - A questionnaire consists of questions presentedto respondents for their answers. Because of its flexibility, the
questionnaire is by far the most common Instrument used to collectprimary data. Questions can be open-ended or closed-Ended.
Qualitative measures: - Some marketers prefer more qualitativemethods for gauging consumer opinion because consumer actions
do not always match their answers to survey questions. Qualitative
research techniques are relatively unstructured measurement
approaches that permit a range of possible responses, and they are
a creative means of ascertaining consumer perceptions that may
other-Wise be difficult to uncover.
Mechanical devices: -Mechanical devices are occasionally usedin marketing research .Mechanical devices like galvanometers
-
7/30/2019 Customer Relationship Project 1
50/80
50
measure the respondents interest or emotions aroused by exposure
to a specific ad or picture.
Secondary data:-
Data potentially useful in solving a current problem but that were
collected for a different purpose.
Reason for selecting secondary data:-
Secondary data can be gathered quickly and inexpensively, compared to
primary data, it is clear useful to study analyzing the recent development
in the telecom industry.
Contact methods:- Once the sampling plan has been determined, the
marketing researcher must decide how the subject should be contact:
Mail questionnaire: - The mail questionnaire is the best way toreach people who would not give personal interviews or whose
responses might be biased or distorted by the interviewers. Mail
questionnaires require simple and clearly worded questions.
Telephone interview: - Telephone interviewing is the bestmethod for gathering information quickly; the interviewer is also
able to clarify questions if respondents do not understand them.
The response rate is typically higher than in the case of mailed
questionnaires.
Personal interview: - Personal interviewing is the most versatilemethod. The interviewer can ask more questions and record
-
7/30/2019 Customer Relationship Project 1
51/80
51
additional observations about the respondent, such as dress and
body language. Personal interviewing takes two forms. In arrangedinterviews, respondents are contacted for an appointment, and
often a small payment or incentive is offered. Intercept interviews
involve stopping people at a shopping mall or busy street corner
and requesting an interview.
Online interviews: - There is increased use of online methods.There are so many ways to use the Net to do research. In this
method, researcher can include a questionnaire on its Web site and
offer a people to answer the questionnaire.
4.To decide from of data collection:-
For this project survey method was selected which was carried through
person interview. Because information from different customers was
required.
5. To organize & collect data:-
Once the researcher has formulated and development a research design
including questionnaire second thing he has to decide whether he has to
collect the information. From all the targeted customers. There can be
two types of survey are possible.
Sample SurveyCensus Survey
