...The Transition from 2D Drafting to 3D Modeling Benchmark Report Improving Engineering Efficiency September 2006 — Underwritten, in Part, by — The Transition from 2D Drafting to 3D Modeling Benchmark Report Executive Summary D o more with less. The mandate hasn’t changed for manufacturers. They must develop more products with increasing complexity to address customer and competitive pressures. Yet, there’s no “give” in project timelines to adopt new technologies like 3D modeling to help them win. However, some manufacturers are not only adopting 3D modeling technology, but excelling at hitting their product development targets at the same time. How is it possible? Interestingly enough, it’s actually quite simple. Key Business Value Findings • Best in class manufacturers their hit revenue, cost, launch date, and quality targets for 84% or more of their products. • Best in class performers typically produce 1.4 fewer prototypes than average performers. • Best in class performers average 6.1 fewer change orders than laggard performers. • In total, best in class manufacturers of the most complex products get to market 99 days earlier with $50, 637 lower product development costs. Implications & Analysis How do they do it? • Best in class performers are 40% more likely to have engineers use CAD directly to ensure they stay close to the design. • Best in class performers are 24% more likely to take advantage of extended 3D modeling design capabilities. They are 55%...

...Summer Internship Project Report Understanding the Business Dynamics of four major Indian IT companies, Comparison of their Strategies and Equity Forecasting of a Company Submitted to Mr VinitBolinjkar, Head, Equity Research, Ventura Securities Ltd Dr. Sangeeta Wats 8 June 2013 Prepared by Vaibhav Jha (Roll No A028) Intern at Ventura Securities Ltd, Mumbai MBA Capital Markets 2012-14 batch Narsee Monjee Institute of Management Studies, Mumbai Preface The size of Indian IT Industry is $100 billion. The pace with which different IT companies have been growing vary to a great extent. Even in terms of future guidance, one company hovers around 6-10% vis-a-vis another at 17%. Volatility has seeped into this industry. It is becoming increasingly difficult for the investors to invest in any of the companies, thanks to the sinusoidal growth of some of the bellwether IT companies. An investor needs to do an in depth analysis of the business model being followed by various companies. I need to look into their target geographies, service lines and industries. Scrutinising these parameters along with the valuation of the respective stocks will give a better idea about the future prospect of these companies. In this research, I have taken top four Indian IT companies- TCS, Infosys, Wipro and HCL. An in-depth analysis of each of the companies is done. I have looked into various domains of the companies. IT industry has many service lines- IT Services, Consulting, Products...

Section one introduces what is international business and who has an interest in it. Students will sift through the globalization debate and understanding the impact of ethics on global businesses. Additionally, students will explore the evolution of international trade from past to present, with a focus on how firms and professionals can better understand today’s complex global business arena by understanding the impact of political and legal factors.

...Exam case Australian Beverages Limited Pre-seen information Semester 1 2010 Australian Beverages Limited — Pre-seen information A. Introduction to Australian Beverages Limited — March 2010 Australian Beverages Limited (ABL) commenced soft drink manufacturing in 1937. During the 1970s and 1980s, the company expanded its beverage portfolio by entering into other non-alcoholic beverage categories, such as fruit and milk-based drinks. Entry into the snack food market was recently undertaken in response to declining consumption of carbonated soft drinks (CSDs), the company’s traditional area of business strength. This move also enabled ABL to leverage its strong distribution capabilities to supermarkets, convenience stores and hospitality channels by adding adding such complementary food products to non-alcoholic beverages. Nevertheless, CSDs still accounted for 90 per cent of company revenue in 2004. Tom Dwyer, the current managing director, has been with the company since 2005. He joined the company at a time when CSD growth was stagnating and shareholder confidence in the company was waning. This had resulted in the share price declining by 15 per cent in the two years prior to his appointment. In order to restore shareholder confidence, Dwyer established a strategic planning team within the company to assess the current product portfolio and identify organic and acquisition growth opportunities. From this review the importance of operational excellence was identified and strong...

...Impact of Organized Retailing on the Unorganized Sector Mathew Joseph Nirupama Soundararajan Manisha Gupta Sanghamitra Sahu May 2008 INDIAN COUNCIL FOR RESEARCH ON INTERNATIONAL ECONOMIC RELATIONS Foreword The retail sector is expanding and modernizing rapidly in line with India’s economic growth. It offers significant employment opportunities in all urban areas. This study, the second undertaken by ICRIER on the retail industry, attempts to rigorously analyse the impact of organized retailing on different segments of the economy. No distinction has been made between foreign and domestic players, in analyzing the impact of the increasing trend of large corporates entering the retail trade in the country. The findings of this study are based on the largest ever survey of unorganized retailers (the so-called “mom and pop stores”), consumers, farmers, intermediaries, manufacturers, and organized retailers. In addition, an extensive review of international experience, particularly of emerging countries of relevance to India, has also been carried out as part of the study. The study estimates that the total retail business in India will grow at 13 per cent annually from US$ 322 billion in 2006-07 to US$ 590 billion in 2011-12. The unorganized retail sector is expected to grow at approximately 10 per cent per annum with sales rising from US$ 309 billion in 2006-07 to US$ 496 billion. Organized retail, which constituted a low four per cent of total retail in 2006-07, is estimated...
