5. HISTORY OF TATA STEEL
Backed by 100 glorious years of experience in steel making, Tata Steel is
the world’s 6th largest steel company with an existing annual crude steel
production capacity of 30 Million Tonnes Per Annum (MTPA).
Established in 1907, it is the first integrated steel plant in Asia and is now
the world`s second most geographically diversified steel producer and a
Fortune 500 Company.
Tata Steel has a balanced global presence in over 50 developed European
and fast growing Asian markets, with manufacturing units in 26
countries.
It was the vision of the founder; Jamsetji Nusserwanji Tata., that on 27th
February, 1908, the first stake was driven into the soil of Sakchi. His
vision helped Tata Steel overcome several periods of adversity and strive
to improve against all odds.
Tata Steel`s Jamshedpur (India) Works has a crude steel production
capacity of 6.8 MTPA which is slated to increase to 10 MTPA by 2010.
The Company also has proposed three Greenfield steel projects in the
states of Jharkhand, Orissa and Chhattisgarh in India with additional
capacity of 23 MTPA and a Greenfield project in Vietnam.
6. Through investments in Corus, Millennium Steel (renamed Tata Steel
Thailand) and NatSteel Holdings, Singapore, Tata Steel has created a
manufacturing and marketing network in Europe, South East Asia and the
pacific-rim countries. Corus, which manufactured over 20 MTPA of steel in
2008, has operations in the UK, the Netherlands, Germany, France, Norway
and Belgium.
Tata Steel Thailand is the largest producer of long steel products in
Thailand, with a manufacturing capacity of 1.7 MTPA. Tata Steel has
proposed a 0.5 MTPA mini blast furnace project in Thailand. NatSteel
Holdings produces about 2 MTPA of steel products across its regional
operations in seven countries.
Tata Steel, through its joint venture with Tata BlueScope Steel Limited, has
also entered the steel building and construction applications market.
The iron ore mines and collieries in India give the Company a distinct
advantage in raw material sourcing. Tata Steel is also striving towards raw
materials security through joint ventures in Thailand, Australia,
Mozambique, Ivory Coast (West Africa) and Oman. Tata Steel has signed
an agreement with Steel Authority of India Limited to establish a 50:50 joint
venture company for coal mining in India. Also, Tata Steel has bought
19.9% stake in New Millennium Capital Corporation, Canada for iron ore
mining.
Exploration of opportunities in titanium dioxide business in Tamil Nadu,
ferro- chrome plant in South Africa and setting up of a deep-sea port in
coastal Orissa are integral to the Growth and Globalization objective of Tata
Steel.
Tata Steel’s vision is to be the global steel industry benchmark for Value
Creation and Corporate Citizenship.
Tata Steel India is the first integrated steel company in the world, outside
Japan, to be awarded the Deming Application Prize 2008 for excellence in
Total Quality Management. (tatasteel.com)

to this, TATA Shaktee GC sheets are ISI certified under Bureau of
Indian Standards (BIS). (IS 277) All in all, TATA Shaktee GC
sheets give more value for money and are the best choice for anyone
looking for a product that will perform year after year.

Hardness in Roofing
Sheets
Accurate tempering resists cracks
and fissures.
Uneven tempering causes cracks during installation.
Tensile Strength High tensile strength resists
external forces.
Zinc Adherence Superior technology and process
control leads to cleaner steel
surface that enhances sheet life.
Low tensile strength results in damage and dents.
Inferior and outdated technology results in unclean steel
surface leading to Zinc peel-off and reduced sheet life.
Zinc Coating
Technology
Uniform 120 gsm Zinc coating
through 'Feed Forw ard X-Ray
Coating Gauge' ensures even
surface protection.
Non-uniform Zinc coating causes parts of GC sheet to corrode
faster.
Zinc Mass Correctly printed thickness and
Zinc coating on sheet assures true
value for money.
Overlapping Even corrugations ensure Perfect
overlapping that results in a neat
roof structure.
Physical Dimension Length of sheet equal or more than
standard specified length.

chromate solution prevents
formation of w hite rust.
Thickness Thickness of the sheet is equal to
or more than the standard

new GC sheet, results in low er sheet life.
Uneven corrugations lead to gaps in overlapping that ensures a
badly fabricated roof and poor w eather proofing.
Length of sheet low er than standard specified length.
Inadequate chromate solution results in formation of w hite rust.
The thickness printed is very often incorrect and low er to the
standard specified thickness.
Ordinary sheets are packaged in a poor quality plastic that
results in damage to sheets.

21. OBJECTIVES
TATA Shaktee GC sheets give more value for money and are
the best choice for anyone looking for a product that will
perform year after year.
The Club Shakteeman main objective is to provide a complete
roofing solution to the customers.
Secondly, it will give a distinct recognition to the fabricators
working for the company.
Nowadays the families are being nuclear, where people
demands house that has low investment. The Club
Shakteeman with the dealers provides a complete house to
the people on the basis of their level of investment.
TATA Shaktee GC sheets are serving for the last 10 years.
Competitors are taking away the market shares slowly. To
rule the market with a higher number of shares the company
has planned to launch “Club Shakteeman”, so that the
company can provide extra service to the customers..
TATA Steel has always been a responsible company towards
the society and the people. Keeping this in mind the Club
Shakteeman is going to provide a respectful job to the
fabricators who doesn’t have a strong identity.
People have a strong believe on TATA and this believes is
turned into reality by proving the customer the best GC
sheets with a complete roofing solution by the launch of the
“Club Shakteeman”.
22. RESEARCH PROBLEM
Though Tata Steel is the largest manufacturer of steel in the country,
there has not been much focus on the after sales service related to the
selling of roofing products like Tata Shaktee, Durashine. Therefore
the market knowledge about this service was incomprehensible for
the future exploration. The management was interested to know
whether apart from buying the sheets are customers really interested
to buy complete roof if offered by Tata Steel. Complete roof means
making the entire roof of the customers from structure to sheeting.
This management objective was transformed into the management problem:
“Market study on the need of complete roofing solution in the metal roofing
segment”
The problem was to be answered not only in terms of the
quantitative aspect but also in terms of the qualitative aspect to seek
information about the consumption pattern, product and service
requirements, brand awareness and perception of Tata Steel in the
mind of the customers.
The right answer to this problem would help Tata Steel to locate the
target segment and decide if it is viable to provide the customers
with the complete roofing solution.
23. RESEARCH OBJECTIVES
To study the market need for complete roofing solution
To understand the point of view of the dealers regarding roofing
solution
To record the fabricators views on the roofing solution
To make the customers understand roofing solutions and
record their views on it.
To propose a model for the roll out of the complete
roofing solution based on the views of the customers,
dealers and fabricator.
24. QUESTIONNAIRE DESIGN
The ultimate and most important effect of marketing intelligence is
reflected in business decision making. To get the right information to
make the right decision, one has to ask the right question to the right
audience. Questionnaire construction is properly regarded as a very
imperfect art. The questionnaire was constructed appropriately
keeping the target respondents in mind.
Three different questionnaires were prepared for the dealers,
fabricators and customers respectively. The questionnaires started
with administrative questions which were used for collecting
identification information. These questions were filled by directly
asking the respondents face to face and sometimes by gathering
information from the dealers.
Then we had investigative questions to get the responses from
dealers, fabricators and customers based on their past experience and
their future plans.
A major part of all the three questionnaires consisted of measurement
questions which were basically closed ended like dichotomous questions
which seek Yes/No response, multiple choice and multiple rating scale.
Multiple rating scale was used to collect the feedback of the dealers,
fabricators and customers on quality and service of Tata Steel and its
competitors. The subjective or open ended questions whose variables were
recorded from the respondents were later transformed in the form of
multiple choice questions. Likert scale was also used to measure the
satisfaction level of the respondents. Paired comparison was also used.
25. SAMPLE DESIGN
Target Population
Element: The information was mainly collected from the
dealers, the head fabricators and the customers
Sampling Unit: The sample consisted of mainly the authorized
dealers of Tata Shaktee, Durashine in southern Bengal. The
respective fabricators of the dealers were also taken into the
sample and the customers of these dealers were also taken.
Sampling Frame: The references of the dealers were taken
from the authorized distributor of Tata Shaktee, Durashine in
West Bengal. The database of the fabricators and customers
were being provided by the dealers.
Sampling Technique: The sampling technique used here was
Quota sampling as we had covered the respondents only in the
southern part of West Bengal
.
Sample Size: The sample size consisted of 17 dealers, 51
fabricators and 18 customers.
26. DATA COLLECTION
Data are of two types: Primary data and Secondary data. As we
had no secondary data available with us we collected primary
data by going directly to the field for close to six weeks. About
20 dealers, 18 customers and 33 fabricators were covered the
details of which are being given on a separate data sheet.
The final data has been also compiled in a data sheet which can
be easily accessed in the future. It is in the form of an excel
sheet. The data has been compiled in the form of pie- charts and
bar diagram which has been shown in the analysis portion. The
analysis portion is being divided into three portions- dealers
report analysis, fabricators report analysis and customers report
analysis
27. DATA ANALYSIS
Data of any form has to be given a right platform to make a
meaningful understanding for the decision makers. As
mentioned above the data has been maintained and recorded in
the excel sheet. The data has been compiled and arranged in
tabular and graphical forms. The graphical form includes pie-
charts, bar diagrams and tables for quick reference. Graphs have
been used for analysis part.
In some places the likert scale has also been used and the data
recorded has been transformed into pie-charts to show the
satisfaction level of the customers. The bar diagrams have been
used to compare the records of the respondents. All the details
of the dealers, fabricators and customers have been recorded in
the data sheet in excel format.
The analysis portion has been divided into three categories-
Customer report analysis, Fabricator report analysis and Dealer
report analysis given below.
Product includes: TATA Shaktee GC Sheets, TATA Shaktee
RIDGES & GUTTER.
28. FABRICATOR REPORT ANALYSIS
The total number of fabricators in the sample was 51.
A. Upon asking the fabricators about how many years of
experience they have working in this field, 55% of the
fabricators said that they have more than 15 years of
experience, 24% of the fabricators said that they have 10-15
years of experience, 15% of the fabricators said that they have
5-10 years of experience and 6% of the fabricators said that
they have less than 5 years of experience as a fabricators. The
pie chart has been given below.
Inference; Most of the dealers have experienced fabricators. More
experienced fabricators means quality work can be imparted to customers
and it would be easier for these fabricators to train.
A. When the fabricators were asked that what has been their
maximum area of sheeting, 21% of the fabricators replied that
it is upto 1000 sq ft, 46% of the fabricators replied that it is
upto 2000 sq ft, 15% of the fabricators replied that it was upto
5000 sq ft, 9% of the fabricators replied that it was upto 10000
sq ft, 95 of the fabricators repliedthat it more than 10000 sq ft.
The pie chart depicting the figures has been shown
below:
29. Inference: This pie chart shows that a majority of the
fabricators work on small scale projects which are mainly
under the area bracket of 1000 to 5000 square feet. Most of
the fabricators do not want to do projects which involve
bigger areas
i.e. more than 5000 square feet as they do not have the proper
training to do so. So training of the fabricators is an important
aspect of roofing solution.
B. When the fabricators were asked whether they only fix
roofs or structure or both, 97% of the fabricators said that
they do both sheeting and structure and only 3% of the
fabricators said that they do only sheeting. The bar
diagram has been depicted below:
30. Inference: As almost all of the fabricators can do both the
sheeting as well as structural work, so the fabricators can be
pooled together according to their
respective dealers and train them properly so that they
provide better quality work to the customers.
A. When the fabricators were asked about the number of
roofing solutions they had provided in a year, 50% of the
fabricators said that it was between 20-30, 16% of the
fabricators said that it was less than 20, 6% of the
fabricators said that it was between 30-40, 28% of the
fabricators said that it was above 40. The pie chart has
been shown below:
Inference: It can be said that a majority of the fabricators are
providing 20-30 roofing solutions per year which can be
increased with proper training and linking them to the
dealers.

55. RECOMMENDATION MAINTENANCE
Storage:
Due to capillary action, moisture easily enters between the
surfaces of stacked sheets. In areas of high humidity, wind takes
them between the sheets. The trapped moisture between the
sheets cannot evaporate easily leading to deterioration of the
surface coating, a phenomenon known as White Rusting. This
leads to reduced life of sheets and poor appearance. In areas of
high humidity levels, it is advisable to have exhaust
fans to reduce humidity level inside the sheet storage point.
If the sheets are not required for immediate use, it should be
stacked neatly and clear of the ground at covered space. It is
advisable to protect them with waterproof covers.
If stacked sheets become wet, separate it without delay, wipe it
with a clean cloth or saw dust and stack it under sun till it dries
thoroughly
56. Marking, cutting and drilling during installation:
Avoid usage of black pencils, i.e. lead pencils; to mark a galvanized
surface as the graphite content can create an electric cell when wet
and this may cause deterioration of the finish of surface. One can
use colored pencils or a fine felt-tipped marker.
For cutting thin metal sheets:
It is recommended to use a hand or electric saw with a metal-
cutting blade since it produces lesser damaging metal particles
and burr on the sheets.
Holes on the sheets;
Holes should be made by drilling. Use of punch in making holes
should be avoided as it may not produce a clean cut hole and may
even damage the profile of the sheet.
Maintenance:
Besides roof design and the environment, maintenance also plays an
important role on the life of a roof or wall.
Maintenance includes the following:
Preferably, washing should be done at least every six months and
more frequently in coastal areas where moisture in atmosphere
contains high level of salt. Washing of roof is also recommended in
areas of high industrialization, which have higher content of oxides
of sulphur, nitrogen and chloride salts along with humidity in the
air.
Regular inspection of roofs and walls for problems before
they become major corrosion sites.
57. CONCLUSIONS
After the extensive survey conducted in the market and speaking
to distributor, dealers and fabricator, I believe the initiative by
TATA STEEL LIMITED to offer Complete Roofing Solution in
the steel roofing market is a step in the right direction and will
go a long way in securing the customer delight and ultimately
share of business.
Secondly, after going through the data and fabricators form it
was found that most of the fabricators are self employed and
they can be brought under one roof named SHAKTEEMAN
(RISTON KI SHAKTEE)
Club Shakteeman is the next step taken by TATA STEEL
LIMITED to move one step further than its competitors. This
will given recognition to the fabricators and will be a service to
the customers in the roofing solution.
