The document summarizes the industrial process for gear box manufacturing at a company. It has three main points: 1) The company was founded in 1958 and manufactures air compressors, pneumatic tools, gearboxes, and other industrial equipment. It has established global joint ventures and partnerships. 2) The standard process has three sub-processes: inquiry handling, order execution, and an ERP system. Inquiry handling involves receiving inquiries, cost estimation, and offering preparation. Order execution includes design, manufacturing, and assembly. 3) The processes were integrated using the company's Oracle ERP system. This allows data sharing between marketing, R&D, production, procurement, and other departments for improved

2. Overview of the company
• The company under study was incorporated in 1958 .
• The company started its operations with the manufacture of
Air Compressors and Pneumatic Tools. New product lines
were then added, including Gearboxes , Air Conditioning
and Refrigeration systems, etc. The company has also
earned an enviable reputation for its Systems Engineering
and Turnkey Project expertise.
• Over the years, the Company has developed various
sophisticated and high-tech products in the above categories
to cater to the demands of various industrial sectors.
• The Company has also established a number of joint
ventures and technology partnerships across the globe.

3. The Standard Industrial Process for gear
manufacturing in the organization has three
sub processes
1. Inquiry Handling Process
2. Order Execution Process
3. ERP process
The first process is followed by the second
Inquiry Handling Order Execution
ERP integrates these processes

4. Inquiry handling process flow is given below:
1. Inquiry receipt given to marketing dept.
2. Inquiry forwarded to design dept.
3. Design dept. will provide the correct recommendation (what to be
technically offered) with a cost estimation sheet. Cost estimation sheet
consist of various inputs to the solution.
4. Costing is done with the help of estimation sheet.
5. Offer preparation is done and it is forwarded to Customer.
6. Follow-up & Negotiation (technically & commercially).
7. Either order received or order lost.
8. If the order is received, Then order execution will follow.

6. Improvements in Order
Execution Process
• Initially order review was immediately followed by design output which led to a
lot of errors in the later stage and to was quite a task to rectify the errors at a later
stage. So after order review, Design plan, review and verification was added to
validate the design before finalizing the design output. This led to overall increased
efficiency of the process. The Design plan, review and verification is done
according to the following standards
• In the earlier followed process, after making Specs and PO placement of bought
out, raw material, accessories, receipt of forging was generated without consulting
the availability of required jigs and fixtures from ME dept. So a new step was
added before generation of receipt of forging, Pass on data to ME for feasibility
check & fixtures arrangement. This reduced the scope of any rework of later
outsourcing of material.
*The Improvised Order Execution Process is shown in the next slide.

8. Integration of the processes
 The company is using ERP process by implementing key modules from the
Oracle E-Business Suite and Oracle Knowledge Management to meet
its system and data integration needs across its various departments.
 The implementation of Oracle Applications is a strategic initiative and a
knowledge management tool to streamline existing operations across
different locations. This provides an integrated view of information across
the various departments to help our decision-making process.
 So all the processes discussed before are integrated using Oracle.
 When the order receipt is generated in oracle by Marketing Dept, the other
departments get notified in Oracle. Since different steps in the order
execution process are performed by different departments and they are
interdependent. So this ERP tool(ORACLE) helps in storing, distributing
and application of data across depts.
