Production planning is always made base on the sales plan of the organization
or on the customer order. Based on sales plan first of all how much to
manufacturing is decided. So that manager can decide what production
operation will be done on which masala and when. He has also decided the raw
material or input required for the production. For the decide raw material
37
requirement, he first check the stock of raw material, stock of finish goods,
pending purchase order, etc. so, the sales plan of the organization is very much
important component to make production planning.
We know the business is dynamic nature. Sometime, it may happen that the
demand is very little in the market. So we can see the excess of material. On the
other hand, when the demand of the product is very high. We see the shortage
of material. So both the types of problems are solving with the help of
production planning. Effective production planning helps to the organization to
avoid such situation.
In RAMANAND FOODS, the production plan is prepared based on sales plan,
which help them to avoid situation as mention above. The process of
RAMANAND is as given below.
The staff of the sales department prepares sales monitor report for the purpose
of giving the best services in the term of delivery dates specified by the
customer. So they easily produce as per customer requirements. One copy of
this report is send to the production department. So sales planning are not done
on the basis of the production planning rather than production plan is based on
the sales plan.
The customer specification included type of the product lot size, delivery date,
and material to be used for the products, quality required, etc... On the basis of
these specifications, production plan is prepared.
It is deciding in advance the short term as well as long term conversion if raw
material and other inputs in to finish product or product to be utilized as inputs
for further production by enhancing the utility of inputs. So that, they satisfies
customers’ needs on time.
38
4.6.1 Production plan is converted in MRP:
The whole process of material requirement planning or preparation of material
requirement panning is indirectly depending upon the customer orders. Because
when the customers give order than they also specifics the material to be used
.as per customer specification raw material is used.
Thus order placed by the customer or their specifications plays a dominant role
in material requirement planning. When manager purchased the raw material
that will be used full in satisfy the customers demand.
Before deciding the required quantity of the material to be needed for the
production, the inventories are deducted from the requirement. The frosh
material placed after calculating the inventories. The prime objective of
material requirement planning is to be trigger timely purchase action of various
dependent demand items. Which raw material is required urgently and
providing conveys which can be delayed required details of MRP to purchase
department. If helps maintain priority control
As far as data of schedule is concern, the customer also specifies it and
according to buy the raw material. The supplier on the basis of the delivery
schedule, if a supplier can supply the material according to the production
schedule he can be selected.
In RAMANAND the use material requirement planning as manufacturing
resource planning the planning is divided in to two parts.
1) Manufacturing resource planning-1
2) Manufacturing resource planning-2

Inventory is the total amount of goods and/or materials contained in a store or
factory at any given time. Storeowners need to know the precise number of
items on their shelves and storage areas in order to place orders or control
losses. Factory managers need to know how many units of their products are
available for customer orders. Restaurants need to order more food based on
their current supplies and menu needs. All of these businesses rely on an
inventory count to provide answers.

raw material quantity in every end of month and company cannot stock the
item more the one month because all items are related to the food.

counting them. Many companies take an inventory of their supplies on a
regular basis in order to avoid running out of popular items

SUGGESTIONS

SUGGESTIONS
After completing of training I suggest following points:
o Company should give effective advertisement in newspaper & women
magazine.
o In spices market many more competitors so keep to the customer for over
product is not easy so given the good quality at fewer prices
o Current Assets, Loans and Advances are increase in current year, so it is
good for company and it helps the company to meet its cash requirements.
o Fixed Assets of company is increase in current year.
o In marketing base Ramannad Foods are not good in advertisement and other
marketing point of view. So some money is invest in marketing line and
given to competition to her competitors.
o The price of masala & Atta is very high then other company so company
should try to minimize the price of masala & Atta for increases selling of
masala & Atta and to capture the market share.
o Company tried to minimize the cost of goods sold and financial expenses.
o The company should find another vendor to purchase raw materials at lower
rate because to reduce costing of masala.
