1 INTRODUCTION
The aim of organization study is to gain an organizational
familiarization and in- depth knowledge of the functioning of various
departments. The study was undertaken with the objective of understanding
the working of a business organization. It gives clear idea about the
functions and practices of various department heads, S!T analysis, porters
five forces model analysis etc. The organizational study is intended to access
and to ac"uire the knowledge regarding the functional as well as the
management aspects of the firm.
#n os study has been conducted at TERUMO PENPOL LTD;
TRIVANDRUM. This study is oriented towards understanding, how the
company functioning. In practice, by interaction with the various
departments in the organization. $lood Transfusion is an integral part of the
%ealth &are delivery in any country. In fact it is the most important part of
the health care system. $lood bag is a disposable bio-medical device used
for collection, storage, transportation and transfusion of human blood and
blood components. The system consists of a single or multiple bags
connecting with tubing, needle, needle cover, clamp etc. The blood bags are
made of plastic materials which are compatible with blood. $lood $ags can
successfully replace the use of glass bottles for collection, storage,
transportation and transfusion of blood and blood components since bottles
re"uire e'haustive cleaning, rinsing and autoclaving procedures and there
are chances of breakage at any stage. $lood bags are most ostensibly serving
the medical field in crucial hour. #s the number of hospitals, nursing homes
are increasing( the demand for the blood bags too is increasing
pg. 1
tremendously. $lood bags cannot be advertised. The )S* for these products
is "uality.
In +arch ,-.., the company bought ).S. medical device company
CaridianBCT for around /,.0 billion. It is the largest ac"uisition by a
1apanese medical e"uipment maker and makes the company to the top of
global blood transfusion market.
1.2 OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY

2.1 B&OOD B1' INDUSTRY
$lood product belongs to biological products and is a biological
active preparation, which collects healthy blood as the raw material and then
is made through biological process or separation and purification
technologies. $lood products are irreplaceable in the application of medical
emergency and prevention 8 treatment to some specific diseases. $lood bag
is a disposable bio 9 medical device used for collection, storage
transportation and transfusion of human blood components. Indian 3esearch
and 7evelopment organization is offering technology for the manufacture of
disposable blood bag systems. The system consists of a single or multiple
bags connecting with tubing, needle cover, clamp etc. The blood bags are
made of plastic material, which are compatible with blood. $lood bags can
successfully replace the use of glass bottles for collection, storage,
transportation and transfusion of blood and blood components since bottles
pg. 4
re"uire e'haustive cleaning, rinsing and autoclaving procedures and there
are chances of breakage at any stage. :urther, use of disposable bags
eliminates the possibility of any contamination. In recent times the blood
bag has become a conspicuous item and essential need of hospitals and
nursing homes to meet blood infusion emergencies. $lood bags are most
ostensibly serving the medical field in crucial hour. #s the number of
hospital, nursing homes are increasing the demand for the blood bags too are
increasing tremendously. # blood bag system comprises of a container
holding an in-activator that inactivates micro 9 organism contained in blood,
a container holding an anticoagulant and a connecting tube connected li"uid
9 tightly to the container, wherein the activator contains as a main
component a platinum compound capable of binding to nucleic acid of the
micro 9 organism or an a"ua comple' of the platinum compound( and a tube
for introducing a neutralizing agent to neutralize the in-activator which is
connected with the container holding the in-activator.

$lood bags are made by welding together e'truded plastic sheets. The
bags are subjected to autoclave sterilization at high temperatures and
pressures and freezing temperatures in the blood banks. They should also
withstand processes like centrifuging, used to separate the various
components of blood. ;arious parts like connecting tubes,

and sampling ports go into these bags, which are filled with an anticoagulant

This stage is relatively new in the T*25s blood bag production
process. Two major reasons contributed to the creation of new process stage-
sticking and leakage. 2eakage is tested by passing filtered air with the help
of specially designed machine. To avoid sticking of bag air is injected into
the bag as per the standard set by N.#. 2ess amount of air leads to sticking
and more air effects the smooth flow of blood. &are is taken to ensure right
"uantity of air is injected. This stage provided an added advantage by
different bags of different thickness and volume to be produced at same
time.

# scan of the internal and e'ternal environment is an important part of
the strategic planning process. 4nvironmental factors internal to the firm
usually can be classified as Strength or eakness and those e'ternal to the
firm can be classified as !pportunities or Threats. Such an analysis of the
strategic environment is referred to as a S!T #nalysis. The !verall
evaluation of company5s strength, weakness, opportunities and threats is
called as S!T analysis. It can do so by using a form which is called
marketing memo or an outside consultant can be hired. but it is always better
that then companies do their own S!T analysis and accept their weakness
and threats and review the marketing, financial, and organizational
competencies and rates each factor as a single strength, minor strength,
neutral factor ,minor weakness and major weakness.
&learly, the business does not have to correct all its weakness nor
should it focus about its strengths. The big "uestion is whether the business
should limits itself to those where it posses the re"uired strength or should it
e'plore better opportunities might have to ac"uire or develop certain
