2. OVERVIEW OF THE ORGANIZATION
2.1 Historical Background
"Forward Group Pvt Limited"
In Sialkot 1990 Forward group has started its working with the name of Forward
sports. Forward Sports was established by Mr. Khawaja Masood Akhtar, A young,
ambitious engineer, who had worked in the ball manufacturing for many years. Mr.
Masood had the idea of revolutionizing the hand-stitched industry and with his
innovation on team and his future prospective, he started his new factory. The first
years proved to be very difficult and many hurdles had to be overcome. The
competition in the industry was strong and to break into these barriers seemed to
be very difficult factory was only one of the 5 or 6 suppliers for Adidas and by far
the smallest. So the first year forward produced only an average of 1,000 balls per
month, only the low end price point balls, with a lead time of 120 days, made out of
imported materials in the old traditional way of hand stitched ball manufacturing.
However, this was not what Mr. Masood wanted. So as an entrepreneur, he started
to try different things, while not forgetting his business. He first found a local
manufacturer for the ball materials. He and Thai PU, a synthetic supplier from

Thailand, which had a small plant in Pakistan, developed their own material to be
independent from imports and to have more and better innovative choices.
At the same time, a continuous and still ongoing process of improvement and
change in the factory started.
Every operation step was questioned. Mr. Masood made numerous trips to machine
manufacturers all over the world, to see what was going on in the industries and to
implement this in his factory. In the meantime, he saw a continuous growth of his
business by delivering good quality products with shorter and shorter lead times.
For Football 2006 Season, Forward made about 4.7 million balls and had already
become the second largest ball supplier. From 2003, he modernized and changed
the way of ball making completely. The lamination which was done by hand in rather
uncomfortable conditions was changed to machine lamination. In Printing, 15 hand
printing lines with rather high concentration of solvent were changed and replaced
by 7 automatic, multicolor printing machines, with environment friendly conditions.
The cutting section, which used conventional swing - arm cutting machines, cutting
1 panel per time, high power machines are now being used, which can cut up to
204 panels per stroke. Instead of buying small batches of latex, Forward built 2 big
containers for 250 tons storage with a centralized supplying system, directly to the
Factory. All this innovations and continuous modifications made it possible for
Forward to be:
 The only hand-stitched ball factory for Adidas Group (They make Adidas and
Reebok balls) Shipper of approximately 4.7 million balls in 2007
 The most sophisticated hand-stitched ball manufacturer in the world, with
lead time of maximum 60 days, with 50-60% of the balls shipped out within
30 days
 Price reducer between 2002-2008 due to localizing of materials (almost
100% of the ball materials are made in Pakistan now) improving efficiency
and productivity
 Producer of 32 panels Thermo bonded balls as of September 2007 in a
complete new building on the same compound as the hand-stitched plant.
The capacity has been increased to 25,000 balls in April 2008 .Between 60-

70% of the workers in the ball factory could be reduced and in the same way
the space in the building could be saved.
 Forward has now become the world’s no 1 hand stitched soccer ball
manufacturer with the capacity of producing 35000 balls/ day providing the
low price high quality in minimum lead time.

5. SUMMARY OF MY LEARNING
During my internship period I applied my theoretical concepts practically which gave
me better understandings which I have read in my accounts books. This internship
helped me to improve my confidence level and communication skills as well. My
internship taught me not to lose confidence in any problem because every problem
has solution. During my internship period, my supervisors were very much
cooperative and answered my queries very calmly and also gave me manuals about
organization. Besides their ever going activities, they never got irritated by my
questioning. Due to their help and cooperation, now I can confidently say that I am
fully aware of the functions and activities performed in the accounts department of
the Forward Gear.
I joined Forward Gear on 15 august 2011 and I reported to GM of Forward Gear,

Mr. Hafiz Abdul Qadir, who introduced me to the accounts manager Mr.Muzamil
Rana and I accompanied him to the account office and in the way to account office
he advised me to have a successful internship period I should look busy always in
work environment whether I have been given work or not, and he introduced me
to the Accounts officer Mr.Sarfraz where I have to spend 2 weeks, during my stay
there with Mr.sarfraz .

5.1 Skills and Qualifications
I learned how to cope with difficult situations in calm and professional manner,
under the guidance of Mr. Sarfraz I learned to enter bills in journal, ledger
reconciliations, which are very beneficial for me because of having finance
specialization and that’s the reason for me choosing accounts department for my
internship. I learned to be more responsible under his guidance because he was
given vast tasks within very short time frame which he complete very efficiently, I
learned to be more attentive in listening instructions given by accounts manager,
because in accounts department communication of figures and true understanding
of figures is very important. I learned to be more Quick responsive then before,
because this is the demand of any profession. He trained me so well that I even
worked at his seat in his absence very successfully. Yes Boss is the term which I
can say should be used for your better evaluation by your boss. Being professional
is also a key for a successful employee. My first two weeks taught me to be
professional, clear communication quick response, and deep knowledge of your
filed is very much necessary to be successful.
Under supervision of second accounts officer I learned to prepare import

documents , export documents, and how to maintain payroll records , under her
supervision I learned how better communication can solve many problems in no
time , better communication is the key in dealing people, this account officer was
concerned with employee records that’s why she had to deal with many employees.
I learned, while working in competitive environment we should keep record of every
document because boss can ask anything at any time and delayed or confusing
answers may result is underestimation of your work abilities. Mistakes are the part
of work but repeating those mistakes may have unfruitful results for your career
.Under her supervision I learned how to learn from our mistakes and not to repeat
again because in professional and competitive work environment repetition of
mistakes don’t even exist. I learned that work is divided in such a way that one
mistake effects the working of complete system. I learned that tasks given should
be completed on time.

Under supervision of Cashier, I learned to record day book, denomination of cash,
entries in company software, maintenance of cash. He was very calm person and
performs his actions very calmly but effectively, while working with him I learned
how to maintain create a jolly environment while maintaining the dignity of office
environment. I learned to be more responsible in matters of cash, how to handle a
large sum of cash and most importantly I got a chance to learn practical application
of single entry system. Being student of Finance specialization Accounts
department taught me practical applications of my learning through books. During
my internship period I used to visit different banks which enhance my confidence
level and communication skills during my visit to bank I was given responsibility of
holding huge amount of cash to analyze abilities of honesty .Under supervision of
Cashier I learned how to handle aggressive behavior of people if company is
delaying their salaries in very clam way.
Mr. Muzammil Rana (Accounts manager) taught me how to report your work to your
officials efficiently and how to complete tasks within given time frame.
My learning in planning department is all about the matter of Time. After receiving
order of Adidas, All next activities are time bounded from receiving of order to
delivery of finished goods. In this department I learned strictness and
professionalism is basic requirement of our officials because workers work more
efficiently under the strict head and lenient head may not produce best results from
his/her workers, so being professional and strict boss is effective for the
organization.
After my internship, I analyzed that my bookish knowledge become more productive

after having practical experience of my knowledge; I memorize the journal entries
but didn’t know about its significance in business sector, being a business student
it was very much beneficial for me to enter in journal because I already have idea
about these entries. After internship in account office I am very much confident that
I can pursue my future career in this field and I can work independently in accounts
office.

Punctuality is the basic requirement of working in Forward Gear, Its Managing
director himself visit to production halls daily and inquired about empty seats, and
if any employee is doing what he or she not ought to do in working hours he or she
may be terminated at the spot, From this I learned to be punctual, disciplined and
more responsible to the work.
5.2 Responsibilities Undertaken
In starting days of my internship period I observed and helped in the activities and
tasks going on in the Accounts office. when I have learned from my first accounting
officer I was held responsible for entering bills in journal, ledger reconciliation,
vouchers printing, maintaining records, preparing import payment documents,
maintaining employee payroll records, preparing export documents, maintaining
record of TT’s and credit advices sent by bank ,Salary slips printing, cash from
banks, salary distribution , denomination of cash, preparation of Day book etc and
I really tried to work hard and with determination to fulfill my duties and given tasks
with honesty and timely.
5.3 Influence on Future Plans
Being Finance students, doing internship in Accounting and finance department is

very beneficial for me because I want to peruse my future career in this field
according to my specialization and this internship period gave me experience of
working in such accounts environment which can create opportunity for me in
employment in this sector.
Forward Gear is an organization where internee also work like employees of firm
and treated like employees and their questions are encouraged and answered
which give motivation to work hard for firm.

6. CONCLUSION
It was really a golden opportunity for me to work in competitive and professional
environment of Forward Gear as internee because I got chance to analyze the
practical applications of my theoretical knowledge. As for as Forward Gear is
concerned, Discipline, determination in employees, on time completion of tasks,
Professionalism, Incentive given to labor for their motivation are key factors of
success. Work is decentralized into employees very efficiently which increases
effectiveness of work performed. Access to higher offices is very easy, any
employee, even labor have access to MD and have equal right to complain if he/she
is not compensated for work performed. Terminated employees are given dues at
the spot. My internship provides me professional experience and confidence and
enhanced my personal as well as professional abilities. Forward Gear facilitates
new talent and young employees and providing employment opportunities to the
people of near areas. Besides fulfilling the degree requirements, internship provide
student possibilities for entering in the world of employment, provide students with
options to decide whether to pursue their career in that field or not. This experience
of internship provides students with real problem work that may not be found in
books.
In Sialkot Forward Gear is very well known bag manufacturing organization and one
of the best Adidas products manufacturers.

7. SWOT ANALYSIS
Strengths:
During my internship period I observed following strengths of the organization:

 Having strong brands as it clients like Adidas and Reebok.
 In Sialkot there is no other competitor of Forward Gear
 It has huge production halls which can accommodate more than 1200
workers.
 Highly Qualified Management
 High Security
Weaknesses:

 Internal employee’s politics effects quality of work
 Loans are affecting profits of Forward Gear and also its goodwill.
 Old employees are at more risk of their job termination.
Opportunities:

 Many market areas are untapped
 Develop more portfolios in coming years
Threats:

 Cost threats, company can have cost increments due to the the electricity
rising rates in Pakistan which may result in loss of order from China because
China demands very economical rates.
 Political Threats
 Employees Union is very strong in organization, it can waste time and
resources of organization.

8. RECOMMENDATIONS
 There should be proper check on labor as well as on management to avoid

the management politics.
 There should be more security of old employees.
 In accounts office a lot of work is given to only 3 employees, there should
be at least 2 more employees in accounts office.
 There should be hiring of more specialized and skilled employees in
printing department.
 Promotion should be given bi-annually.
 Employee union should be centralized.
