EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
“Tree cannot touch the skies, but certainly can have branches.” Varroc Group too believes in this axiom, and
has strong footholds in Polymer, Electrical, and Metallic Divisions and exists in all important auras of
Automobile sector.
Now, Varroc Group has ventured into the field of automotive components & sub assemblies of 2, 3, and 4
wheeler in domestic and overseas market with an objective to become the preferred quality supplier across the
globe.
To survive and achieve success, any ventures need to understand the dynamics of competition in their industries
and develop skills and capabilities that give them a competitive advantage. This is especially true among
automotive industries. Customer do not buy only products as such, they buy satisfaction, hence organization
must be clear about the satisfaction the customer is seeking and check out whether supplier is also meeting the
standard as per concern of quality, delivery & service provided so that proper improvement is achieved
throughout the supply chain.
This report is based on above mentioned problems i.e. quality standards of existing suppliers. This report is
broken down into four main parts, first its deals with the introduction and the scope of the research, second
explains the profile of the Varroc Group followed by process or methodology adopted under the research
methodology and the review of literature and finally concluding by analyzing the collected data.
The work environment of Varroc group was absolutely encouraging and full of support. During my training, on
one hand I learned much about Varroc, their work culture, on other hand I got the knowledge of supply chain
management.

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODOLOGY
RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
Redman and Mory define research as a, “systematized efforts to gain new knowledge”
Research methodology is a way to systematically solve the research problem. Research methodology not only
includes research methods but also consider the logic behind the methods we use in the context of our research
study and explain why we are using a particular method or technique so that research results are capable of
being evaluated by researcher himself or others.
Type of Universe:20
Here, type of universe is finite universe, because we can count the number of sample units.
Sampling Unit:
Here sampling units are existing suppliers of Varroc polymer pvt ltd.
Type of Sample Design:
It is a type of nonprobability sampling, it is also known as convenience sampling – under this sampling
design every item of the universe has an unequal chance of including in the sample. In this type of
nonprobability sampling, the sample being drawn from that part of the population which is close to hand. That
is, a sample population selected because it is readily available and convenient.
Method of Data collection:
Here, Method of Data collection is Questionnaire Method.
No of questions: 63 questions excluding profile.
Type of questions: Open & close ended questions
Primary and Secondary Data Sources:
The primary source of information was supplier quality audit reports. Supplier quality assessment is carried out
by Audit team to assess the quality of the supplier so as to determine the supplier quality rating.

THEORETICAL BACKGROUND
A.1) SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT:
The definition, put forward by an American professional association, is that Supply Chain
Management encompasses the planning and management of all activities involved in sourcing, procurement,
conversion, and logistics management activities. It also includes the crucial components of coordination and
collaboration with channel partners, which can be suppliers, intermediaries, third-party service providers, and
customers. In essence, Supply Chain Management integrates supply and demand management within and across
23
companies. Supply Chain Management spans all movement and storage of raw materials, work-in-process
inventory, and finished goods from point of origin to point of consumption.
In the 21st century, changes in the business environment have contributed to the development of
supply chain networks. First, as an outcome of globalization and the proliferation of multinational companies,
joint ventures, strategic alliances and business partnerships, there were found to be significant success factors,
following the earlier "Just-In-Time", "Lean Manufacturing" and Second, technological changes, particularly the
dramatic fall in information communication costs, which are a significant component of transaction costs, have
led to changes in coordination among the members of the supply chain network.
A.2) SUPPLY CHAIN DECISIONS:
The decisions for supply chain management are classified into two broad categories - strategic and
operational. As the term implies, strategic decisions are made typically over a longer time horizon. These are
closely linked to the corporate strategy and guide supply chain policies from a design perspective. On the other
hand, operational decisions are short term, and focus on activities over a day-to-day basis. The effort in these
type of decisions is to effectively and efficiently manage the product flow in the "strategically" planned supply
chain.
There are four major decision areas in supply chain management as: 1) location, 2)
production, 3) inventory, and 4) transportation (distribution), and there are both dsgstrategic and operational
elements in each of these decision areas.
A.3) SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT APPROACH:
Supply chain management is a cross-function approach to manage the movement of raw materials
into an organization, certain aspects of the internal processing of materials into finished goods, and then the
movement of finished goods out of the organization toward the end-consumer. As organizations strive to focus
on core competencies and becoming more flexible, they have reduced their ownership of raw materials sources
and distribution channels. These functions are increasingly being outsourced to other entities that can perform
the activities better or more cost effectively. The effect is to increase the number of organizations involved in
satisfying customer demand, while reducing management control of daily logistics operations. Less control and
24
more supply chain partners led to the creation of supply chain management concepts. The purpose of supply
chain management is to improve trust and collaboration among supply chain partners, thus improving inventory
visibility and improving inventory velocity.
B.1) VENDOR DEVELOPMENT:
Vendor development is one of the popular techniques of strategic sourcing, which improves the
value receive from suppliers. Vendor Development can be defined as any activity that a Buying Firm
undertakes to improve a Supplier's performance and capabilities to meet the Buying Firms' supply needs.
Traditionally one of the reasons for developing vendors is to build more competition in the supply
market so as to eliminating monopoly or oligopoly. The company can then buy a material from a number of
25
sources. Another traditional reason for vendor development is to spread the risk of non availability or
shortage of input materials over a number of suppliers.
B.2) BEST PRACTICES IN VENDOR DEVELOPMENT:
Vendor development can be seen as an attempt to get the advantages of both spreading risk, building
competition and at same time establishing a good rapport. Vendor development involves helping or building
up the vendor by various means such as:
1. Providing technical help by making company engineers and technicians available to the vendor to
help him tide over the initial technical problems.
2. Guaranteeing vendor a certain amount of business, this is particularly needed during initial stages of
setting up the vendor.
3. Help in R&D, by again lending technical help to not only to establish the company, but also to help
improve its products and services on a continuous basis.
4. Lending money for part of his capital equipment, working capital requirements etc.
5. Working directly with Suppliers either through training or other activities etc.
6. AssessingeSuppliers'soperations.
B.2) BARRIERS TO VENDOR DEVELOPMENT:
Vendor development is one of the most powerful approaches that a firm can engage to achieve
the World-Class Supply Chain Management. The focus should be on developing vendor to become self-
26
sufficient at Developing, Implementing and maintaining World-Class performance. There are many barriers
to effective supplier development, such as,
1. 1. Credibility of customers
2. Legal issues
3. Resource limitations
4. Poor communication and feedback
5. Complacency
6. Initiative fatigue
7. Lack of trust
8. Confidential issues
CONCEPTUAL DESCRIPTION
A. VARROC QUALITY POLICY:
27
“We at Varroc group are committed to manufacture & deliver Quality products efficiently on time that
comply with customer & regulatory requirements & provide excellent service by continually improving
effectiveness of all processes, while striving to become a world class organization.”
B. SUPPLIER QUALITY MANAGEMENT:
Supplier quality management has emerged as one of the leading business practices in the past few years. World-
class manufacturers are making significant investments in systems and processes to improve supplier quality.
With companies outsourcing their manufacturing to strategic partners across the globe, the supply chains have
become very long. In addition, many of these manufacturers have streamlined their supply chain and
implemented lean inventory techniques. As a result, any issue in supplier quality can quickly result in stock
outs.
Businesses rely on suppliers to maintain their efficiencies. Even a minor breakdown in the supply chain, or a
slight deviation from quality performance, can cost an organization valuable time and reduce profitability.
Companies that sell industrial products need to preserve their preferred supplier status to continue to be
considered for future business. As a result, they are under pressure to ensure that their products continue to meet
or exceed acceptable PPM and Corrective Action thresholds set by their customers. Hence, managing their own
supplier’s quality is very high on the agenda for these companies.
C. SUPPLIER QUALITY AUDIT:
All over the world organizations are under pressure to reduce production lead times & production costs.
These pressures have led companies to attempt to improve the efficiency of their internal processes by
28
adopting new business practices like Total Productive Management, Just In Time, etc. But they have
now realized that isolated improvement in individual organization within larger system of
interdependent environment would not be enough to achieve their objectives. They have recognized the
need for better coordination with upstream firms that supply inputs and the network of downstream
firms responsible for the distribution of their products to the customers and after sales service. This has
resulted in the emergence of the concept of supplier up gradation.
Varroc expect suppliers to meet the same high standards which varroc set for themselves. In this rapidly
changing business environment greater demands are being placed on business to provide products
quickly with greater added value, to the correct location with least possible inventory levels. Customer
expects high quality, design, innovation, convenience & service at reduced cost. Supplier systems
assessments are done through audits to review suppliers’ quality management system, manufacturing
processes, material handling system & compliance with varroc requirements.
In this system, assessment identifies concerns, Varroc asks the suppliers to develop corrective action
plans & to provide evidence that they are implementing recommendations. Varroc help suppliers to
improve by sharing best practices & work with them to manage their suppliers, so that sustainable
improvements are achieved through out the supply chain. The key areas are identified and assessed in
the supplier quality audit. This assessment system includes:
Management
Finance & Accounts
Engineering
Quality control
Measurement control
In process control
Manufacturing process
Packing & dispatch
Abnormality control
Development
Stores
Purchase
D. SUPPLIER QUALITY RATING:
29
A Supplier quality rating or vendor rating is a business term used to describe the process of measuring an
organization's supplier capabilities and performance. Supplier rating forms part of Varroc's supplier relationship
management. Such systems follow the criteria that are used for assessment broadly falls into quantative and
qualative types. Common criteria include:
1. Quality
2. Delivery schedule adherence
3. Cost/Price
4. Capability
5. Service
Results of each variable are then weighted into a final score – usually a percentage, allowing suppliers to be
ranked. Supplier rating is an ongoing activity, suppliers are assessed periodically. Various criteria can be
analyzed within supplier rating system. A common approach is to utilize Quality, service and Delivery
measures and apply weighting against criteria in accordance with company requirements.
Varroc then often categorized suppliers according to results which may commonly be used to highlight poor
performing suppliers so that they can be blocked from the business sharing. Supplier rating results may also
trigger improvement programs on suppliers that score low in supplier quality audits. Supplier ratings system is
utilized to drive performance and improve the business relation.
E. SUPPLIER RATING CALCULATION:
1. Quality rating (SQR):
It is one of the best techniques in using facts to rank the supplier’s relative performance within the
supply base and tracking improvement in supplier’s quality over the longer period of time.
30
SQR= [ (Q1+X1.Q2+X2.Q3+Q4) / Q ] * 100
Where,
Q1 = Quantity accepted
Q2 = Quantity accepted under deviation
Q3 = Quantity partially accepted
Q4 = Quantity rejected
Q = Total quantity
X1 = Demerit factor (material accepted under deviation)
X2 = Demerit factor (material accepted with segregation)
2. Service rating (sr):
Service rating is subjective rating given on the basis of service provided in handling the customer
concern by the suppliers.
3. Delivery rating (SDR):
SDR= ( Q1 / Q ) * 100
Where,
Q1 = Quantity promised to supply within stipulated delivery time
Q = Actual quantity supplied
4. Supplier rating (SR):
SR = [ SQR * 85% + SDR * 10% + sr * 5% / 100 ]
31
Where,
SQR = Supplier Quantity Rating
SDR = Supplier Delivery Rating
sr = Service Rating
5. Analytical weightage:
Weightage is applied against Quality, service and Delivery measures in accordance with company requirements.
SQR = 85%
SDR = 10%
sr = 5%
6. Supplier category:
Suppliers are categorized according to supplier rating results which are used to highlight poor
performing suppliers so that they can be blocked from the business sharing.
A = greater than or equal to 95%
B = less than 94.99% but more than or equal to 90%
C = less than 89.99% but more than or equal to 85%
D = less than 84.99%
