Inventory Management To maintain inventory at appropriate level to avoid

excessive or shortage of inventory because both the cases are undesirable for business.

Other Objectives:

To keep investment in inventory at optimum level. To minimize carrying cost of inventory. To minimize inventory ordering costs.

Costs of Holding Inventories1. Material Cost: This include the cost of purchasing

the goods, transportation and handling charges less any discount allowed by the supplier of goods.

2. Ordering Cost: This includes the variables cost associated with placing an order for the goods. The fewer the orders, the lower will be the ordering costs for the firm.

3. Carrying Cost: This includes the expenses for storing and handling the goods. It comprises storage costs, insurance costs, spoilage costs, cost of funds tied up in inventories etc.

Techniques of Inventory Control Economic Order Quantity Technique (EOQ)

ABC system of control

Economic Order Quantity Technique

It is that size of the order which gives maximum economy in purchasing any material and ultimately contributes towards maintaining the materials at the optimum level and at the minimum cost.

Economic order quantity =

• A = Demand for the year • Cp = Cost to place a single order • Ch = Cost to hold one unit inventory for a year

ABC system of control The ‘A’ group will include more expensive items with high

investment and it will require more intensive control.

The ‘B’ group will consist of the items accounting for the next largest investment.

The ‘C’ group will consist of a large number of items of inventory accounting for small investment.

Conclusion Proper Inventory management system is followed

using SAP.

The firm follows inventory control techniques such as A-B-C technique EOQ Analysis which is quite effective.

Storage facility in Mazagon Dock Ltd. is quite large and up to the mark.

Findings Mazagon Dock Ltd. Faces the problem of

competition from private companies.

There is no proper sequence & acknowledgement board for certain items in store department. It is not good when external auditing held in company.

Organization has no record of wastage items. It is not good for operating profit of the company.

Recommendations The new recruits and less experienced employees

should be given proper training on related SAP modules.

Proper work division should be done so that employee knows what work is assigned to them. Sometimes during my training period I noticed that in the goods receipt process because of lack of coordination there confusion as to who do it.

The paper work should be reduced and computerization should be increased for more successful working.
