ConclusionWe conclude that:
It is a very informative and worth learning project
Ittehad Chemicals is a competing company.
It is going towards progress but also facing many issues. They haveno shot term plans, they only deal with big plants and therefore theydon’t lease it or don’t opt for any other option
They only predicting demand and forecasting they determine theircapacity requirements.
There is also a problem in their inventory that is they have excess ofunnecessary inventory which is not beneficial for them as they haveto bear maintenance cost on it
Another issue they face is of their competitors, engro chemicals is ahuge competitor of Ittehad chemicals, the market share is high andalso competitive advantage is towards engro due to the by-product
Recommendations
They are using DSA plant which is now getting ruined due tobecoming old, because of this, they are facing lose, gettingdown in market position. They have to replace their plant DSAwith IEM plant, which is more efficient and less costly as well.
They should gives wages to their employees, give moreincentives to them and divide their duty in shifts
Market needs more and rapid production of products and givespreference to those companies which follows these tips, so werecommend ICL to makes their new plant for rapid production.
If they give space to their employees and gives highpreference to their customers need, make order according tothe demand , they will definitely reach towards success andhave a good market place.
