Executive summary :
Background
Hind Systems has been running from a year and its core business activity is sale of computers.The
target segment of the company is solo business . During that time , it has successfully created a
sound financial condition and workable marketing stretegy.Mr.Rich has bought the company ,Hind
systems .He is working part-time from home to run the business .He has excellent
production ,marketing and IT skills .
Company ‘s vision is to provide, solo business ,a system, what they actually want , extensive features
.The company will only focus on its target segment “Solo Business “to fulfil their
requirements .Company’s mission is to bring effectiveness and efficiency in the process be it
production or sales and the objective of the company is to grow the business significantly by making
monthly profit of 3000 and turnover 10000 respectively .
This Business plan aims to provide the guidelines to run the business for a year and to provide the
key performance indicators that will be used to assess the performance at the end of every month .
Business Modal
Our end target to achieve at the end of 12 months is to produce the maximum number of units by
own and getting the guaranted minimum number of sales each month . Production at house will cut
the variable cost and getting more orders will reduce the fixed cost as well .Our Business plan will
work in three phases .In first phase the focus will be to invest the time to improve the cashflow
scenerio by getting 60 days credit period from supplier and lending 3000 from friends and family .In
second stage , we will work to bring more efficiency and effectiveness , To save the effort and
time ,all units will be contracted out for production instead of producing some at home and that
time will be invested in hiring the required office equipment and improving the skills , sales and
communication, via training .This investment will bring efficiency and effectiveness in company ‘s
growth and owner’s prosperity both,afterwards the product design and price will be changed which
will result in increased gross profit margin since adding the features that target segment focuses on
and eliminating some additional componants ,making no value ,undoubtedly will push the customers
to buy product even at high cost .Finally we will focus on marketing ,we will hire the supplier to
guarantee minimum 15 sales and then we will relocate to managed office and the owner will work
full time in his business. As we will be efficient enough to produce the units by own ,profit will be
earned in two ways ,by cutting the variable cost of production process and reducing the fixed cost by
increasing the number of orders.
Controlling
Each month members of group would conduct a meeting to critically evaluate the results compared
to plan.For every step ,key performance indicators would be there to compare the actual and
planned facts .
With an aim to improve the cashflow ,we will switch to the supplier ,”Prosupply”,giving the credit
facility of two months .This will not only improve the cashflow but also will make the effective use of
s the part of amount will be used in improving the efficiency of business (training and investing in
suitable resources )key performance indicators will be bank balance and ability to invest .The key of
healthy cashflow is extending the credit limit of supplier ®
In order to improve efficiency and order rates we will contract out all the units for production in
initial stages until the resources are hired and skills are learnt.Though producing the part of units by
own cut the cost ,it is dangerous for efficiency and sales rate.As producing 1 unit takes
…….hours ,this will be used effectively for learning the essential skills which furthur will increase
order rates and profitability .
Salary 1500
Product design : Changing the product design will improve the customer satisfaction and
order rate .As our target segment prefer extensive features ,our new design will attract them
more as we are going to improve the features by ……% .Removal of feature that neither
your customer needs nor any competitor provides is unlikely to effect the growth of business
meanwhile minor improvement according to customer performance can increase
the number of sales .
Hind systems will remove the extra componant used in quality which is increasing the direct cost ,as
quality comprises of ……….cost ;however neither our customers want it nor other competitors
provide it .Cutting the material will not effect any customer but increasing the features will .This
overall will increase the total cost to …….and price to ………which not only will improve the sales but
also will improve gross profit margin.
