Omfed Dairy Standards
Dimensions Of Quality
Conformance to standards
• Omfed focuses on standardization of its milk by adjusting the SNF & fat% and there by ensuring uniformity of the milk.
• Cream extraction when raw collected milk has SNF & Fat above standards.• Addition of Milk powder to increase the Fat & SNF % to specified level.
Durability
• Omfed takes a neutral stance in ensuring durability of the packaged dairy milk.• It uses HTST method for pasteurization for reducing the bacterial count to less than
30,000.• Packaged milk when stored below 5oc, it remains apt for consumption within 48 hours.
Perceived Quality
• Omfed has built a positive brand image in terms of quality & value among its customers.
• Omfed was awarded ISO 22000:2005 (Food Safety Management System) on Aug 2016.

Key Learning Points
The dairy firm focuses on a few dimensions of quality to a certain degree.
Durability: Omfed does not go for flash heating purposely even though it could increase the durability of the packaged milk because this would result in increase of total cost of the product.
Abusing the system increases internal quality costs
In times of high demand ,the milk is sometimes packaged early on before obtaining the results of MBRT test. This may lead to reprocessing if the micro biological count is not within the prescribed limits.
Suggested Improvement
No quality check in place to test melamine presence
Few years back in some states(UP and Bihar), cases of adulteration of milk with melamine were reported that is a serious health hazard. There should be a proper system to check the presence of this hazardous substance.
Conclusion
Omfed being the leading dairy cooperative society of the state is majorly responsible for distribution of dairy products that are consumed by all sections of the society. Hence, it is imperative for them to keep quality checks at all levels as a minor negligence would result in serious consequences.
Flawless execution of the process flow consistently is now not just a competitive advantage but has become a basic necessity.
