Conduction in SCM

Heat transfer and Supply chain are closely interlinked.
HT concepts can be easily applied to Supply Chain.

In conduction the transfer of heat is sequential. Similar to the logistics chain.
The raw material is transferred to the manufacturing facility where in various processes takes place and it is finally transferred through the chain till it reaches the end consumer.

Thus logistics help in material movement.i.e the atoms/molecules help in the energy transfer from on end to the other.

WHY MBA ??

During my MBA coaching days the question they said was a must to be prepared with was "WHY MBA ?"

i was also 1 among the not-so-sure Gen-X. The obvious reasons were "Pay-package"... but you know; you just cannot say that in the interview..the so-called norms of education [ honesty/ integrity ]... :)

After having quit a job which many would craved; with enticing pay-packet.. WHY MBA ?
Midst of this confusion i got a confirmation from SIBM-B.
i was overjoyed and enrolled for this programme.

After interacting with my colleagues who were willing to take on any challenge, to face the world and craving to succeed in different areas.All the professor with immense know-how, an excellent industrial exposure.

I finally knew "WHY MBA"... why spend this much... time and money for this course...

MBA for me was for the overall experience which my college provided, which i would never-ever be experiencing in a job.Experience of making friends, faculties with eminent industrial contacts, top notch industry personnel, various situations ,meetings, presentations, academic pursuit, discussions even partying...
with such an overall worth which i have gained; even though half way...

for me THIS WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE; IS MBA !

SIBM-B : Club C

Initially i thought MBA would be boring. It would be like, "All study n no play; would make Jack a dull boy"...Even on day-1 i had the same feeling. Saare padhakuu log lag rahe hai...

But once classes started after the induction session, my initial assumptions were falsified .
All were fun loving. Till engineering i was not much regular in attending classes. But yahan par aane ke baad,i feel if i'm not coming to classes; i'm missing something.

We all discuss not only technical and managerial issues but also Kaun si movie achchi hai, the latest iron maiden fest, latest Shakira's albums and all different gossips.People talk about their experiences in their states,countries and cultures, their lifestyles and beliefs.

We used to have hang-outs, parties regularly. .
Section-C was acronym-ed "CLUB-C " by all folks, due to it. After full day classes we have had night DHAMAAL : DJ,dance and snacks all along ..... Satisfying the cliched line "work hard and party harder".

All were equal contributor in this "enjoyable crime".
We all hope to continue the same MASTI in the next year..

Would like to say " CLUB-C rocks " .



P.S : Thanx Jenny 4 the wonderful video
Thanx to all Section-C 'onites for making it CLUB-C :)

Era of Marketing III : Band Loyalty

Whenever we listen to our favourite music, song or voice our joy's released out of the boundaries of the dam of constraints. May it be an Indian Ocean concert in Baroda, Jagjit singh nite in Delhi or Iron Maiden concert @ Bangalore...People are in their own ecstasy, flowing and pouring their hearts out.

Doctors, Professors, Managers, students forgeting the so-called social norms of decency and putting their emotions forward.The emotional connect provided by these are not made available for most of the brands.

Why Brands fail when Bands succeed in creating the right customer blend and consumer emotional urge ??

Pls all flood in your valuable comments regarding the same.

KiChDy- The Mix

Inventory management, supply chain concepts, demand-supply weighings all are not only applicable to companies but also Kitchen.
There's complexity in this so called looking simple SYSTEM.

KichDY = Kitchen Dynamics.

Let us make a thorough analysis of how KichDy is inter-relating these concepts.




From the market we need to know the CUSTOMER WANTS AND DEMANDS (1).Weekly/ daily forecasts are analysed and charts prepared in a company.

Mummy asks every1 @ home :
" Beta kya khaoge, kitne log khaenge sham ko, tum mei se koi bahar toh nahi jaaoge, aaj chole-bhature chalenge ? "

Once the VOC (Voice of the customer) is heard i.e demand sensed from the market. PRODUCTION CAPACITY ANALYSIS(2) is done; whether there is no production constraints is thoroughly analysed.
"Kya ghar par sabji, masale hai ? utensils ki toh maara-maari nahi hai naa ?"

After production analysis and satisfactory results in the analysis,PRODUCTION INITIATION(3) takes place as per demand.
"The required sabji, rice, dal or delicacies are prepared in the required time for required people and place."

Some days Khana zyada hota hai, sometimes the food is less. If the food is more, prepared food, cut n chop vegetables or even the unchopped vegetables they are put in refrigeration.
INVENTORY MANAGEMENT(4) is done.

Carry forward of the same food takes place next day, to continue with the same for consumption.
Daily cleaning of utensils with good LEAD TIME(5) is done daily.

All and many more concepts lead to a complex web of Kitchen Dynamics.
