EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

This study covers the business potential of Stanley Hand Tools mainly in the Bangalore region.

The study started with gaining knowledge about the industries in and around Bangalore and their

needs and requirements vis-à-vis hand tools. This was done by making daily visits to different

manufacturing units across Bangalore city. It was also observed that the driving forces behind

procurement of tools across the industry were more or less the same.

Further a study on the comparison of different brands of hand tools available in the market was

undertaken. The comparison was done on the basis of quality, ease of use, brand awareness,

durability, and price-worthiness amongst other criteria.

On the basis of the observations, certain recommendations are sighted at the end of this report.

Some important one’s are- use of e-marketing, having a marketing calendar and sticking to it,

starting of newsletters and having a regional office amongst others.

If implied, a few of these suggestions may offer a low-cost solution to the brand awareness

problems we face and harness more sales in the coming years to give us an opportunity to expand

our business in this region.

Chapter II: LITERATURE SUPPORT

A) Introduction to Hand Tools

The most popular product category is hand tools. The tools, which are operated by hands, are

known as hand tools. Hand tool products include a broad category of hand tools. Hand tool

products are broadly used in all type of industries. Today technology has become highly advanced

but still the importance of hand tools products cannot be ignored. In fact hand tool products are the

backbone of all the industries; no matter how advanced are the machines and technology used

there. No industrial process can be executed without using hand tools.

As machine can never replace importance of mankind the same way automatic tools can never take

place of hand tools. The use of hand tools is must in every kind of industrial job but sometimes it is

not promptly noticeable. Even if the entire process is executed by automatic tolls and machine,

then too hand tools are required for additional jobs like packing, finishing etc. Furthermore the

efficient working of machine is also dependant on hand tools. Hand tools are essentially required

for repair and lubrications of machines.

Apart from this they are widely used for home repairs, garages, electrical appliances etc. A kit full

of primary hand tools products may be easily found at any home. Hand tools are used to execute

very complex as well as simple tasks. Screwdriver is such a common hand tool product, which is

the part of every engineer’s tool kit as well as in every household. Spanners, screwdrivers, pliers,

clamps, riveters, wrenches etc., are used for tightening and riveting the various screws etc.

Hand tool products are designed to carry easily. That’s why every vehicle has its own set of hand

tool products. It can be used in time of any breaking of machine where one does not find any help.


18

Hand tool is a savior in time of need. A kit of hand tools products is like a first-aid box for

machinery.

2.1: Hand tools Market

2.1.1: Indian hand tools market

India has a competitive advantage in the hand tool industry compared to other countries because

of easy availability of raw materials, entrepreneurship skills and skilled labor at competitive

wages. The hand tool industry as a whole is witnessing a shift of manufacturing base from

traditional manufacturing countries in Europe and Taiwan to the developing world and this is a

good sign for India to benefit. There has been an average growth of 17% per annum of the hand

tool market in India for the last 7 years.

Estimated No. of Units in India 2500

SSI Units 95%

Large Units 7

Estimated number of workers 25000

Major Manufacturing regionsJallandhar/

Nagpur

2.1.2: US hand tool market

The U.S. hand tool industry is estimated to be a $6.2 billion. Hand tool demand, including

power tool in the United States is expected to rise 3.1% annually through 2011, reaching $14.3

billion, according to a recently released report. There are more than 1,000 firms active in the

U.S. hand and power tools industry, ranging from small, privately owned firms to major

corporations like Stanley Works, Black & Decker, Bosch, Danaher and Snap-on etc. In fact

these major companies accounted for nearly 55% of the total sales in 2006.


19

2.2: Characteristics of the industry

A labor Intensive Industry: A source of employment to many, hand tools industry is basically

labor intensive in nature, whose development is of great importance for a competitive as well as

a self-reliant industrial structure. The manufacturers of hand tools produce a comprehensive

range of of hand tools, right from carpentry and plumbing tools to striking and cutting tools.

Energy intensive industry: Apart from being a labor intensive industry, this industry is also an

energy intensive one. It is estimated in a recent study that in most economies adoption of energy

efficient processes and technologies can yield in energy savings of up to 30 to 50%.

Effective contributor to the economy: Adding positively to the income of a country, hand tools

industry has contributed to economy in terms of development and technology up-gradation.

2.3: Consumption patterns of hand tools

This depends on the following factors:

Price

Supply chain dynamics

Product quality, design and safety

Service

Environmental factors


20

2.4: Driving forces for hand tool development

Hand tools were in use since a long time and there has been a great change in the designs of

hand tools from time to time. There were many factors that led to hand tool development.

2.4.1: Workers safety & health:

This is a very important consideration in today's designing of hand tools. Hand tools should be

designed in such a way so that they reduce wear and tear on the operator. Ergonomics hand

tools have become very popular, driven by an increased emphasis on worker safety and health.

Workers nowadays prefer tools, which reduce stress on the body and at the same time reduce

employee time loss due to job-related disabilities. Today, designers are coming up with more

comfortable grips, reducing the weight of the object, and making hand tools adjustable to

different body types.

2.4.2: Chemicals

When tools are designed, manufacturers consider ergonomics, performance and the

environment. Besides considering health and cleaning factors, hand tools are also produced

nowadays using less chemicals, using less environmentally damaging products which are not

harmful to the the human body and which becomes an environment friendly product.

2.4.3: Cleaning

One of the driving force for change in hand tool has always been to make cleaning easier. For

proper functioning and durability of hand tools, it is necessary keep them clean after usage. In

most cases, the latest designs go for flexible handles which can be removed and cleaned

separately as both the handle and the tool blade are of different materials.

2.4.4: Hand Tools Standards


21

With the rapid advancement and expansion in the global trade, standardization of various

products is very necessary. The standards given to various products help in expanding

international trade which in turn bridges the quality gap between the manufacturers, suppliers

and buyers of different nations. In hand tools as well, standards play a vital role.

Standards are required in hand tools for the following reasons:

They provide performance requirements.

They provide safety requirements.

Standards are available for all types of hand tools like pliers, screwdrivers, wrenches, striking

tools, torque instruments etc.

These standards also include the various tests that are required to determine conformance with

the safety and performance requirements.

B) Introduction to Stanley Assembly Technology:

25

Adaptive Tightening Control (ATC) is a patented algorithm developed exclusively by Stanley

Assembly Technologies and is a standard feature of all QPM Assembly Systems. ATC

automatically manages speed and power to the motor of DC electric nutrunners based on dynamic

feedback during the course of each and every rundown. If a single application consists of a mix of

hard and soft joints with the same fastener drive type and target torque, other tools must be set for

the middle of the road (i.e. tolerate some overshoot on the hard joint and increased cycle time on

the soft joint). With ATC, each joint type is sensed during that particular.

BENEFITS OF ATC

Dynamic loads Improve Quality: accurately tightens a wide variety of joints.

Improve Productivity: optimize speed of tools on a wide variety of joints.

Improve Ergonomics: no sudden speed changes from downshifting.

Reduce Acquisition Cost: tools can be used on any assembly within their torque range.

Reduce Installation Cost: tools don't need to "learn" the job before use in production.

Reduce Maintenance Cost: smooth torque and speed transition minimizes on gearing.


26

Chapter III: METHODOLOGY OF STUDY

The projected was executed in such a way that it is complete to the maximum extent covering

all the aspects and thus arriving at a suitable conclusion to meet the objective of the project. Few

recommendations were also suggested to the company, which can help the organization to grow

further and penetrate faster into the new markets.

3.1: Reach of the Project

The study was conducted covering the two major industrial regions in Bangalore & Hosur. The reach

of the project consisted of various industries and dealers located in these above mentioned areas.

3.2: Research Plan

The research was started with a well laid research plan and weekly schedule. The research plan

included the following important stages.

1) Data Sources

2) Research Approaches

3) Research Instruments

4) Sampling Plan

3.2.1:Data Sources

Primary Research: most of the data in this project was through primary research conducted in

industries. It was done completely through personal interviews, though a prepared questionnaire was

used as guide line and which was later filled summarized.

Secondary Research: Latest information available on internet about various industries and dealers

was also used apart from the data got through primary research, so as to have a good study of the

hand tools market in Visakhapatnam and Kakinada.


27

3.2.2: Research Approaches

Approaching Customers/Industries:

- Getting permission into an industry would complete almost 50% of your job as it would give is

the platform to know about their operations.

- Get the details of the persons as many as possible in the industry

- Spend your maximum time in the industry, so that you would know what is their work

environment i.e., whether they are using quality products, how much of their operations are being

done by contractors, what is their hand tools purchase quantity and frequency of purchase, etc.

- Also try to find out how the process of purchase takes place, which might be different for

different departments.

Closing the sale:

- This is very important for both the parties to build the relation and also for oneself as this give

the motivation and adds more value to your work.

- To reach to this stage, one must be clear how much work need to be put in, which operates as a

funnel like, if u want to reach or make x sales at least you need to meet 10x customers.

- The time in which you would achieve this should also be planned in the similar way.

3.2.3: Research Instruments

The research instrument was both qualitative and quantitative and hence consisted of personal

interviews, which were guided by self prepared Questionnaires. Each of the questionnaire consisted

of 17 questions on an average. The questions were both open ended and closed ended. The closed

ended questions were a diverse type consisting of single choices, multiple choices, likert scales and

rating scales.

3.3.4: Sampling Plan

The industries to be visited were based on their type of industry like ship building industry, steel

plants and any other major industries. The sample for studying the dealers was chosen to be

minimum 10, which should have the mixture of both types of dealers like the once who do counter

sales and the ones who don’t deal in counter sales.


28

3.3: Collection of Data and Analysis

Various Pie-charts and bar-graphs are made to have an easy and quick understanding of the study

conducted. Initially all the questionnaires were analyzed individually, and then finally an overall

comparison of the various responses from all the dealers was done and analyzed.

3.4: Findings & Recommendations

Finally, the various findings from the study were listed out along with certain invaluable

recommendations for STANLEY, to help them generate and tap the new markets.

Two types of information are required for doing Multi Dimensional Scaling. The first type of

informational requirement pertains to those that are requires to measure the dependent variable

which in this case is customers intention to buy.

The second type of information required pertains to the independent variable. The independent

variables being considered in this case are price, brand, quality, durability, reliability, discount,

warranty, availability, breakage and comfort.

This research was Multiple Cross- Sectional in nature as: Data collection was done only once from

only one sample of the population (Purchasers and end users). The research involved very less of

secondary data then the primary data. This was due to the fact that the accuracy of the research was

to be kept high. Moreover, the research was done on the currency basis i.e. it was done for the

current situation.

5.2 SCOPEOF SYUDY

The study provided an insight into the SAT and its applications, hand tools usage, expectations and

attitude towards hand tools like spanners, pliers and screw drivers. And to find out what factors the

customers seek in general, with regards hand tools and SAT. This study will help to find out the

feedback of SAT and Stanley hand tools with regards to price, brand, quality, durability, reliability,

availability, and comfort.

5.3 LIMITATIONS IN THE STUDY

No research would be a fool proof, 100% error free with the time/ money constraints and within the

limited resources. My research study was no exception.

I too had my own set of problems in terms of price, availability and with the fact that I was a first

timer in this field.


32

The first limitation could be the fact that Expert opinion. Depth interview and all the

Descriptive study were conducted on a sample size of 40+. Though these techniques were conducted

to unearth it still could be limited.

Next limitation would be the fact that the sample size of 40+. More the sample size more

detailed study would be.

The sample taken for creating the model included people from various industries in Bangalore.

The conclusions made are based on the data collected from the sample size. So the conclusion

are based how truthfully the people entered the data.

These were some of the limitations identified during the course of my research

5.4 STEPS INVOLVED

The following steps were followed to attain the objective.

5.4.1Literature study

There is no specific study, which was done on identifying hand tools purchasers purchase

behaviour.

5.4.2Expert opinion

Expert opinion is the process where an expert in the related field is interviewed to get information

that can be used in the study. In this case distributors, dealers, sales officers, marketing manager of

Stanley for south and purchase managers of industries which use hand tools are considered as an

expert.

5.4.3Descriptive study

The descriptive research design used in this case is survey method and personal interview. Personal

interview with various industry purchase managers made the researcher to find some of the factors

and ideas by observation, hearing their grief and interacting with them


33

.5.4.5 Scaling technique

The scaling technique used in the questionnaire was likert scale, open, closed ended and ranking

scale. All the questions in the main questionnaire were extracting answers by this scale. This was

maintained throughout the questionnaire to keep the reliability and validity in control. The likert

scale technique is widely used to determine the level of agreement or disagreement of an issue in the

questionnaire. And another set of likert scaling were used to determine the most important and least

important of an issue in a questionnaire. The scale was designed with five response categories as

shown below.

1---Strongly disagree

2---Disagree

3---Neutral (Neither disagrees nor agrees)

4---Agree

5---Strongly agree

1---Most important

5---Least important

The questionnaire when framed was carefully done to avoid complex words. In circumstances where

such words could not be avoided, explanations were given for the respondents to understand easy.

The ambiguous words or sentences were also avoided. Each section of the questionnaire had an

initial explanation of how to answer the questions. An example was also given for easy

understanding of filling the questionnaire. Important instructions were highlighted in bold letters to

improve the vision and for a quicker understanding of the instructions by the respondent.

The questionnaire was altered twice based on the opinion of the internal guide. The corrections were

made and then it was tested amongst the respondents. The respondent didn’t have any problem in

understanding the questionnaire and answering it.

5.4.6 Designing questionnaire

Based on the results obtained from the descriptive study and using scaling method the final

questionnaire was prepared and administered to the respondents.

5.4.7 Deciding the sample size

The sampling technique used for the research was more of a stratified random sampling. This is

because of the customers who were all possible to meet were selected. The sampling was done as

mentioned above due the lack of time to get data.

As the market research was done to B2B market the sample size was taken as 40. The data was

collected from purchase managers and end users. Certain care was taken to avoid errors of history as

the consumers were all contacted at the place of location. The other errors were either avoided or

even though present it was cancelled out due to the presence of the same with other brands.

5.4.8 Data collection

Data was collected from both purchase managers and end users using stratified random sampling.

The researcher went to each of them and conducted a depth interview, which takes almost 10

minutes. The sample was about 40 potential customers for SAT

The data for the questionnaire was collected directly and through e-mail from purchaser mangers and

end users. The data was collected from most of all industries in Bangalore. Using the data collected

by the researcher was able to come with factor analysis to see whether the factors are really related

to the buying decision.

5.4.9 Analysis of the data collected

All the data collected was fed into a database created in Microsoft Excel especially for this purpose.

The various tools and functions available on excel were used for necessary calculation. Bar graphs

and pie charts were generated to make the interpretation of the results easier. SPSS software was

used for the purpose factor analysis.

The above chart clearly indicates that around 44% of the dealers procured hand tools

directly from the company, 37% of them import those directly from the company and the

remaining 19% get it from regional distributor. This also indicates that they have a very good reach

in the market as they are able to get the items imported directly or from the regional distributors

though not very frequently but at least once in 6 months as required by their foreign clients.

Bartlett's Test of Sphericity Approx. Chi-Square 114.141

df 66.000

Sig. .000

Kaiser-Mayer-Olkin

A measure of whether your distribution of values is adequate for conducting factor

analysis. A measure >.9 is marvellous, >.8 is meritorious, >.7 is middling, >.6 is mediocre, >.5 is

Miserable and unacceptable. In this case it is middling.

Bartlett’s test of Sphericity

This is a measure of the cumulative normality of researcher’s set of distribution. It also tests

whether the correlation matrix is an identity matrix. A significance value <.05 indicates that these

data do not produce an identity matrix and are thus approximately multivariate normal and

acceptable for the factor analysis. In this case it is <.05, so this data is acceptable for the factor

analysis.

Hence, better visibility must be done through magazines, newsletters and through special exhibitions and seminars, as they carry a meager 20%. Better promotional campaigns and brand awareness programs must be carried out.

Chapter VIII: RECOMMENDATIONS

Based on my experience and research conducted, I have identified that the major issue

concerning us is that the brand Stanley is the least visible in the industry compared to our

competitors. I have the following recommendations which I have divided as short term and long

term implementation to face the current situation.

Short Term:

1. Newsletters: By creating our own email newsletter, we could send out industry news and tips to

suspects in our market. Since we will be on your prospects' minds more often than our competition,

eventually, our sales leads will turn into actual sales. Articles about latest trends in tools industry,

helpful solutions and how Stanley plays a helpful role.

2. Customer feedback: It’s important to get feedbacks from our existing customers on a regular

basis. This can be done by asking them how is their product performing, and if any problems, be

ready to offer a solution. This way we build a good relationship with our existing customers. Small

questionnaires through e-mails, or visits to the plant to see if customer is satisfied.

3. Create a marketing calendar and keep it consistently: Scheduling marketing activities that

take place weekly, bi monthly, monthly and quarterly will help us to avoid sudden planning or

having ineffective seminars. And, by doing so, marketing will become easier since it becomes a

regular part of our business life. Regular seminars, for example once a month or once in two months,

every 2nd Saturday. This will help the industry relate brand Stanley with an info provider and just

another company trying to sell its expensive products. Plus it will be like a ritual followed by Stanley

and keep the employees motivated and on their feet.

4. Leaf Lets & Brochures: Equip the sales man with enough amount of product catalog, brochures

and leaflets which he can leave at customers place.

5. Freebies: Provide customers with freebies like table calendar or year book, which the customer

uses and Stanley stays at top of mind recall.


49

Long Term:

1. Internet Marketing: Pay per click, Social networking sites, blogs, links, search engine

optimization. These are inexpensive ways to make the Stanley brand visible, which we have not used

yet. Sites like Facebook, LinkedIn etc are being used extensively by the biggest of companies, so

what is stopping us from capitalizing the huge potential of such cost-free marketing. This will also

help spread brand awareness before Stanley plans to increase its operations in India.

2. Increase the number of Sales Team: Presently the sales team for Karnataka operations has only

two dealers and one BDE, hence this BDE has a hurricane task to cover the entire state which is

highly impossible. Thus Stanley should increase strength of its sales team.

3. Build a referral team: Good referral team involves existing satisfied customers, vendors,

distributors, some retailers, auxiliary services like service personnel who can suggest usage of

Stanley Tools for better performance and less break down maintenance and other technical issues.

4. Local Office setup: A well organized local office setup is recommended to streamline the

operations. The local employees, distributors and dealers will have a common place to have their

periodic meetings, which will ensure identifying loopholes, potential business areas and strategizing

further steps at regular intervals.
