Buddha Air

KUSOM/MBA/HR/HRS
Buddha Air has performed fairly well in the market until recently,
considering a number of financial and market performance indicators as well
as institutional growth measures. However, experts view and comparative
analysis of performance suggest that Buddha Air could have done even better
given the huge market for airlines operators during the last decade and
comparatively weak competitors. But now the demand for air services is not
growing as fast and the market has become more competitive with some strong
competitors operating in the airlines industry. Buddha is already
experiencing tough challenges maintaining its position while facing severe
constraints for further growth.
Some of the major comments inferred from a consulting report that looked into
the organizational structure and HR systems of the company are reproduced
below:
In the face of the emerging market situation the company has recently taken
some initiatives as below:
Plan to procure in near future two new aircrafts with more seating
capacity.
Plan to start cross-border flights in near future.
Plan to start financial services in the Eastern Terai.
Computerization of business information (including financial, marketing
and employee performance information).
