A distribution channel is the flow of goods and services from a manufacturer to end customers. It can involve one or multiple companies and individuals. There is no perfect channel for every product - the chosen channel must balance reach and efficiency based on the product and market. Distribution channels can be intensive, selective, exclusive and involve different levels like retailers, wholesalers, distributors and agents. Designing an effective channel requires considering costs, benefits, routines, logistics and market potential while managing conflicts between participants.
Perception is key to overcoming obstacles. One must maintain objectivity, control their emotions, and alter their perspective to see the opportunity within obstacles. Once you perceive obstacles accurately, you must take action through persistence, getting moving despite setbacks, following processes, and seizing opportunities even when plans fail. While willpower is important, having the right perception and taking the right actions greatly increases the chances of overcoming obstacles.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

2. SCM Profitability and Quality
Management
A well managed supply chain is able to have its
best practices in:
Demand planning
Procurement
Logistics
Inventory Management
Information systems
Risk Management
3. Effective supply chain managers are able to:
• Strategically procure products and provide
solutions.
• Negotiate contract
• Implement strategies to help the operations
• Manage a global supply chain
4. Why do you need Quality Control?
• To reduce variability
• Boost Customer Satisfaction
• Avoid Legalities
• Reduce Waste
• Cut Costs
5. Importance of Quality and Profitability
Defects and Scrap: If the raw materials are
flawed it increases defects. This may require
extra resources leading to additional
expenditure.
External Failures: Quality control in products is
very important. Poor quality may increase the
returns, lead to early wear ‘n’ tear and also
breakage.
6. Inspections: Larger defects may lead to a
manual inspection causing more financial
burden on the company.
Toxic Materials: The better the company
Handles the toxic materials the better for all the
Internal and the external stakeholders.
7. Profits= Sales Revenue- Total Costs
With increased sales and reduced costs a
company can achieve more profits.
Increased sales can be achieved through:
• Reduced Time to Market.
• Better Quality
• Innovation and design.
• Responsiveness.
8. Lower Costs can be achieved through:
Better asset utilisation
Minimizing downtimes
Lowering the supply chain costs
Better time management.
9. Supply Chain Risk Management
• Supply chain risk management (SCRM) is the
process of taking strategic steps to identify,
assess and lower the risk in your end-to-end
supply chain.
• It include disruptions, supplier bankruptcy,
cyber threats etc.
10. Why do companies struggle to manage risk?
• Supplier base transparency is hard to achieve
• Scale and magnitude of the risks is difficult to
find out.
• Proprietary(ownership) data restrictions.
How to approach Risk Management?
There are 2 types:
Known risks and
Unknown risks
11. Known Risks
• Identifiable and
manageable
• Ex: supplier bankruptcy.
Because history of the
supplier is known,
performance is known and
the impact can be
quantified
• Have a catalogue of risks
and a team to identify and
solve the risks.
Unknown risks
• Very difficult to forsee the
unknown risks.
• Ex: Natural calamaties
• Increasing the speed of
response is crucial.
12. Managing Risks
New Product
Development
Plan Source Make Deliver
Risks in each phase:
Cost and Time, Failed/Poor Quality
Recession, Change in buying behaviour
Quality standards, supply shortfall, supplier bankruptcy
Factory shutdown, process disruption, health and safety
3rd party problems
13. • Indentify the risks
• Build a supply chain risk management
framework:
Impact on the organisation if risk materialises

where and how they want it.

growing interdependence of the world's
economies, cultures, and populations, brought
about by cross-border trade in goods and
services, technology, and flows of investment,
people, and information.

Global Markets: Innovation, Time to market,
customer focused, product life cycle are different
elements of the global markets which shape them.

etc. companies from the US-Japan. This can be seen
even in pharma sector, consumer electronics, auto
and defence sector.

being responsive costs. The production costs,
labour costs, Total quality costs that are
important. It is better to prevent rather than
inspect.

governments, government policies, currency
stability etc. are very important.
17. Steps to customise the supply chain:
• Define segmentation criteria: By limiting the
amount of combinations of customers,
markets and products that need to be
provided with standardized supply chain
services, economies of scale can be achieved.
• Characterize standard segments: In a second
step, each cluster is characterized individually
in terms of time, costs and quality, to fulfill the
customer needs within the different segments
as much as possible.
18. • Define optional services: In order to increase
customer satisfaction, chosen segments have
to be diversified even more by offering
optional services in addition to standardized
services. Example: Increase quality, Decrease
time etc.
• Prepare implementation: Check the
feasibility, priorities, services, regions before
implementing.
19. Challenges with customisation:
• If the product is standardised, then there is no
choice for the customers. But if there are
customised products, then it is expensive.

commerce systems from manufacturers, wholesalers and
distributors.
•Just like retailers, suppliers can choose to sell directly through
their own websites or through a service like Alibaba or AliExpress.
•While only 25 to 35% of distributors in the U.S. have an e-
commerce component, this is expected to be one of the fastest
areas in growth for e-commerce business in the next few years.
