...If you were Bharti, what major concerns would you have about entering an outsourcing agreement with IBM? With Ericson, Nokia or Siemens? Bharti Airtel started as a very small company with only $900 capital. Who would have imagined it would have become India biggest Telecom Company. Today, Airtel is the largest provider of mobile telephony and second largest provider of fixed telephony in India, and is also a provider of broadband and subscription television services. It offers its telecom services under the "Airtel" brand, and is headed by Sunil Bharti Mittal. It also acts as a carrier for national and international long distance communication services. Concerns with IBM, Nokia, Ericson and Siemens When Bharti was going through crises of capital expenditures, Gupta introduced two proposals for their benefit. One was to combine with IBM and another was to Nokia, Ericson and Siemens. Their strategy was to hand over the full responsibility of buildup, maintenance and servicing of the telecom network to equipment vendors. As IT technology is not an easily available and cheap market. It does require a lot of investment money to go in. At that stage-when Gupta made the proposal-Bharti didn’t had much. So from the point of a chairman it was the best solution to get the outsourcing done. “The advantages that it has was uncertainty in expenditure would have been low, transferring risk equipment risk to the vendors, pay for use and avoid capacity wastage”(Applegate, Austin &...

...Bharti AirTel Case Digest Bharti AirTel Limited, although in relatively good financial standing, should be very careful in allocating its limited resources. Investments for network installation, maintenance, service and IT systems can cause significant pressure in Bharti’s working capital. As such, investment decisions can make or break Bharti. There are several key reasons why Bharti should outsource its network and IT systems. The first reason is the rapidly changing environment of the telecommunication industries. If Bharti purchases its own network and IT systems, the systems may be obsolete in no time thus wasting the limited capital resources of this company. A second reason is Bharti’s should concentrate on its competencies. Its strength is not technology but operations. This firm’s competency is not in IT design or in network systems. Instead, its core competency is branding and customer service. Therefore, it is in these areas that Bharti has to concentrate. Bharti should leave the technology part to its vendors so that it can maintain its competitive edge. Outsourcing will provide Bharti the option of always getting the best in the field as vendors compete against each other in providing the best offerings at the best cost. Bharti can change networks/IT without worrying about the fixed structures that will become obsolete and useless because of the rapidly evolving technology. Practically, Bharti will in fact be transferring investment risks to the vendors...

...Bharti Airtel Case In the year 2004, Bharti Airtel was at an important crossroads where the company needed to make decisions that would be instrumental in deciding how successful the company would be in the future. The company was growing at an incredible pace, 100% per year, and it was having trouble keeping up with the growth in order to maintain the network. The process of budgeting, maintaining vendor contracts, and managing IT capital expenditure were starting to become a formidable challenge for the company. Bhart Airtel needed to understand exactly what its core competencies were and make the appropriate strategic plans to focus on the competencies. Bharti Airtel’s core competency was understanding the customer’s needs and building the brand up. There was a 300-400 million potential Indian phone customers, and Bharti Airtel’s goal was to capture as much of the market share as they could. The problem was that the company was spending much of it’s time and resources on maintaining the expansive network and focusing on it’s Information Technology needs. This led to the company being more focused on it’s IT needs and less on it’s core competency. Akhil Gupta decided to make a revolutionary decision by changing they way things had been done. Instead of focusing the company’s time and resources on expanding and maintain the expansive network, Gupta thought it was a better idea to outsource all of it’s IT needs. This unpopular decision by Gupta meant that Bharti Airtel would...

...Hai |1 Case 5 – Strategic Outsourcing at Bharti Airtel Limited 1. Do you think Bharti should enter the outsourcing agreements outlined by Gupta? What do you see as advantages and disadvantages of such agreements? In my opinion, Bharti should go ahead with its outsourcing agreements outline by Gupta. There are advantages and disadvantages of delegating its telecommunications and IT networks to vendors. First of all, Indian market for Telecom is growing exponentially. In 1989, there were 4.2 million telephone subscribers. By 2003, the number was 54 million. Thus, outsourcing would help Bharti to full capitalize the astounding growth surge. It can use its resources and expertise to only focus on core areas of value-added services, marketing, branding and pricing, and leave the rest to expert vendors. Second, as one of Applegate’s benefits of “incremental outsourcing”, Bharti would reduce its deliver time to market by outsourcing (Applegate, 287). New network set up in a circle takes at least 6 months from planning to operating. Using its vendors’ technology and expertise, new products would be developed faster and the time would be reduced to get the product or service to the end users. Third, Bharti would receive favorable cash flow profiles and cost reduction from outsourcing, according to Applegate (288). The company would transfer equipment investment risk to vendors. It does not have to keep the investment in maintaining excess capacity. Vendors can archive...

...Executive Summary Bharti Airtel, a leading telecommunications provider in India has seen an enormous growth since the opening up of the Indian economy after the economic reforms initiated by the then PM of India, Mr. P.V.Narasimharao towards liberalization, globalization and privatization. Airtel is now the fourth largest telecom company in the world in terms of subscriber base and is the leading telecom carrier in India. The phenomenal growth of Airtel has been due its outstanding and unique business model where it retained its core-functions to itself such as marketing and finance and outsourced its IT functions to companies such as IBM. Airtel has expanded significantly since 1992 due to the competitive advantage it had in the domestic market ( pan-India presence) and only since 2005-06 it started going global foraging into Africa. Significant threats to Airtel come from the lowering of FDI influx into Indian economy and increasing government regulations in the spectrum allocation frame work ,political interference and lobbying. Also the unstable economic conditions in the countries such as Central Africa were not favorable for its expansion in the global markets. Bharti Airtel (or simply Airtel) is an Indian telecommunications company with operations in 20 countries across Asia and Africa. It is headquartered in New Delhi India and was originally conceived and set up by Sunil Bharti Mittal in 1995. At present, Airtel is the world’s fourth largest telecommunication...

...INTRODUCTION TO TOPIC SENSORY MARKETING: Marketing techniques that aim to seduce the customer by using his senses to influence his feelings and behavior. Sense: Any of the faculties, as sight, hearing, smell, taste, or touch, by which humans and animals perceive stimuli originating from outside or inside the body. HISTORY: During the 1950s, marketers concentrated on using sight for branding. They focused on color and form to promote brands. This was because the main medium for advertising was posters. As television became popular, the consumers' sense of sound was appealed to in advertising. This was mainly during television commercials in the form of jingles (appendix a). In the 1970s marketers began to find that smell could be used in brand promotion. They were also able to adjust the scent of their products to make them more palatable for the consumer. Recently sensory branding has developed to encompass all five senses. Where it all starts….. Perceptual Encoding (process of meaning attribution) Sensation (five senses) Stimuli (exposure) See Ear Smell Taste Feel Sight Sound Odor Flavor Texture The Senses 1. Visual Sight is the most used sense for marketing because it is the one most responsive to the environment. According to fashion retailer Gina Tricot, 'the eyes buy 70 or 80 percent of what people buy.' Sight is how the customer knows the product offering, quality, changes...

...INTRODUCTION Introduction In today’s globalizing economy competition is getting more and more fierce. That means it becomes more difficult for products and services to differentiate themselves from other offerings than ever before. Not only is the number of competitive offerings rising due to globalization of production, sourcing, logistics and access to information. Many products and services face new competition from substitutes and from completely new offerings or bundles from industry outsiders. Since product differences are closed at an increasing speed and many companies try to win the battle for customers by price reductions, products and services tend to become commodities. Customer perceptions are influenced by a variety of factors. Besides the actual outcome - i.e. did the product or service deliver the expected function and did it fulfil the customers need - the whole process of consumption and all interactions involved are of crucial importance. Background of the Study Today’s globalised information driven economy this can also comprise issues like • How other customers or influencing groups perceive the product or brand • The degree to which the customer feels the actual marketing campaign addresses the most important issues • Responsiveness and service quality of any affiliates, e.g. distribution partners Customer perceptions are dynamic. First of all, with the developing relationship between customer and company,...
