integrated logistics process is
executed with no scope of error. Identification of inefficient process in current process. At Delhi, various routes study has to be done so as to pick up and deliver shipment without any delay and minimizing the overall cost. Identification and negotiation with recruitment partner and transport vendor which was very crucial to the business, as cost was one of the major criterion to shortlist them. Compiling list of potential customer in the region and converting them by approaching them through proper channel.
I learnt various component requires
significant improvement. One of the most significant was, modification in weighing and measuring equipment design which reduced inward movement time by almost 75 percent and the cost of the design was mere INR 800, Vis a Vis electronic equipment for same function, which cost more than INR 90000.the design was implemented in more than 10 branches in Delhi and Mumbai. Other improvement was layout design modification of warehouse at Mumbai warehouse, as earlier shipment lost and delay cases were high due improper, inward and outward shipment movement layout design, by the proposed design there was no scope of shipment missing as there were different entry and exit passage and stacking of shipment was done instead of shipment lying on ground. Internship at FSC gave me an ample opportunity to relate the theory and practical aspects of business. I got insight of starting a business from a scratch. Starting from, choosing a
location for warehouse to recruitment,
vendor negotiation and business development. Overall, it was a good learning experience. I was great opportunity to work in an industry ECommerce Logistics which has got
great importance in this era, when
logistics is evolving and has got integrated with customers routine process.
