It analyzes the supply chain and identifies major challenges in distribution, logistics, pricing, and partnerships. These challenges especially impact the planning side of supply chains for SMEs. If not addressed, having a website does not solve issues behind the information flows in the supply chain.

According to TechSci Research report, โIndia Orthopedic Devices Market -Industry Size, Share, Trends, Competition Forecast & Opportunities, 2030โ, the India Orthopedic Devices Market stood at USD 1,280.54 Million in 2024 and is anticipated to grow with a CAGR of 7.84% in the forecast period, 2026-2030F. The India Orthopedic Devices Market is being driven by several factors. The most prominent ones include an increase in the elderly population, who are more prone to orthopedic conditions such as osteoporosis and arthritis. Moreover, the rise in sports injuries and road accidents are also contributing to the demand for orthopedic devices. Advances in technology and the introduction of innovative implants and prosthetics have further propelled the market growth. Additionally, government initiatives aimed at improving healthcare infrastructure and the increasing prevalence of lifestyle diseases have led to an upward trend in orthopedic surgeries, thereby fueling the market demand for these devices.

Memorandum Of Association Constitution of Company.pptseri bangash
ย
www.seribangash.com
A Memorandum of Association (MOA) is a legal document that outlines the fundamental principles and objectives upon which a company operates. It serves as the company's charter or constitution and defines the scope of its activities. Here's a detailed note on the MOA:
Contents of Memorandum of Association:
Name Clause: This clause states the name of the company, which should end with words like "Limited" or "Ltd." for a public limited company and "Private Limited" or "Pvt. Ltd." for a private limited company.
https://seribangash.com/article-of-association-is-legal-doc-of-company/
Registered Office Clause: It specifies the location where the company's registered office is situated. This office is where all official communications and notices are sent.
Objective Clause: This clause delineates the main objectives for which the company is formed. It's important to define these objectives clearly, as the company cannot undertake activities beyond those mentioned in this clause.
www.seribangash.com
Liability Clause: It outlines the extent of liability of the company's members. In the case of companies limited by shares, the liability of members is limited to the amount unpaid on their shares. For companies limited by guarantee, members' liability is limited to the amount they undertake to contribute if the company is wound up.
https://seribangash.com/promotors-is-person-conceived-formation-company/
Capital Clause: This clause specifies the authorized capital of the company, i.e., the maximum amount of share capital the company is authorized to issue. It also mentions the division of this capital into shares and their respective nominal value.
Association Clause: It simply states that the subscribers wish to form a company and agree to become members of it, in accordance with the terms of the MOA.
Importance of Memorandum of Association:
Legal Requirement: The MOA is a legal requirement for the formation of a company. It must be filed with the Registrar of Companies during the incorporation process.
Constitutional Document: It serves as the company's constitutional document, defining its scope, powers, and limitations.
Protection of Members: It protects the interests of the company's members by clearly defining the objectives and limiting their liability.
External Communication: It provides clarity to external parties, such as investors, creditors, and regulatory authorities, regarding the company's objectives and powers.
https://seribangash.com/difference-public-and-private-company-law/
Binding Authority: The company and its members are bound by the provisions of the MOA. Any action taken beyond its scope may be considered ultra vires (beyond the powers) of the company and therefore void.
Amendment of MOA:
While the MOA lays down the company's fundamental principles, it is not entirely immutable. It can be amended, but only under specific circumstances and in compliance with legal procedures. Amendments typically require shareholder

Knowing how to tell a well-structured story is key to building long-term memory. Stating a clear purpose that doesn't take away from the discovery learning process is critical. Ensuring that people move from theory to practical application is imperative. Creating strong social learning is the key to commitment and engagement.

By FS George
โขMuch has been said about the potential of the Internet and its related
technologies to help businesses improve their performance in several areas.
KIZUKI GROUP
โขNevertheless, we should not forget the internal challenges that SMEs face in
Africa. These are challenges that have accompanied the opportunities that
eCommerce presents. Thus , if we are to see wealth creating activities by SME
all over Africa, then the internal challenges must be addressed successfully.
โขThrough the experience we have had with SMEs in Africa, we can capture
the internal challenges by looking at a supply chain diagram.

7. ISSUES
By FS George
โขLogistics. Often companies are too small to negotiate favourable
terms with major transportation and carriers. Not uncommon to find
KIZUKI GROUP
transportation costs approaching 70% of the TC.
โขNo partnerships exists in the international level to process small
orders, distribute and undertake marketing. The website becomes the
only channel. This raises issues of security and trusts.
Customers are reluctant to part with credit card information.
โขUsually not enough instruments in place to deal with return orders.
โขAlmost impossible to measure demand and plan.

8. RESULTS
By FS George
โขNo vision of future demand. Poor marketing forecast and thus poor
KIZUKI GROUP
planning.
โขErratic customer service due to too little or too much inventory.
โขToo many production changeovers.
โขToo many stock outs.

9. WHAT KIND OF SUPPLY
CHAIN?
By FS George
โขAdaptive Supply Chain
This is more relevant in the case of African SMEs because elements can be
KIZUKI GROUP
reconfigured to changing customer demand. Managers or proprietors need to
identify and respond to changing business conditions and consumer
requirements.
โขIntelligent Supply Chain are dynamic and are in a continuous process of
refinement.
In our view not suited to SMEs in Africa because of the level of investment
needed given current market base. There may be a small number of companies
that can implement such chains; holiday resorts for example.

11. CONCLUSION
By FS George
โขExternal Challenges
Efforts at improving the infrastructure are to be welcomed.
KIZUKI GROUP
Further investment indeed needed to increase quality of the
infrastructure
Policy changes to open up markets for competition thereby driving
down prices and rates.
โขInternal Challenges
Resources should be directed towards SMEs training programs,
access to expert advice and e-learning in management..
If we fail this, then the infrastructure will be in place, but very few
would benefit from the opportunities.
