SERVICE STRATEGY:
Service strategy provides guidance on developing service base
business models and strategies. It defines the value creating context and principles of
service management that shape decisions, polices and processes across the ITIL service
lifecycle.
Service strategy represents advanced thinking on how services define relationships
between customers and service provides based on mutual dependence and welfare. It
places business outcomes for customers at the centre of all dialogue in service
management. Services are viewed as mechanisms for engaging the capabilities and
resources of service provides for the support of the customer’s business activity.
SERVICE MARKETING:
Service marketing as the label suggest, relates to the marketing of services, as
opposed to tangible products( in standard economic terminology, a tangible product is
called a good)
• The use of it is inseparable from its purchase
• It does not possess material form, and thus cannot be smelt, heard, tasted or felt of
service is inherently subjective, in that due to the human condition, all persons
experiencing a service would experience it uniquely.

1.2 INDUSTRY PROFILE
Over 6000 engineers and 250 organizations in India and abroad have so far benefited from
this unique course in the last 15 years. It would not be out of place here to highlight those features
of the course which have got it such massive support from industry circles. The last year shows
three editions of the course conducted in Sharjah and Dubai for the benefit of the engineering
community in the Middle East countries.
Piping Engineering is a truly multidisciplinary subject. It draws its knowledge base from
chemical, mechanical, civil, electrical, metallurgical, instrumentation, control engineering, to
name a few. Traditionally, chemical or mechanical engineers have taken to this profession and it
is believed that about 10 years on-job experience and exposure can make a few gifted ones 'piping
engineers' in real sense. Design/engineering sector as well as operating companies have always
yearned for a formal training programme in piping engineering so that this slow self-training
approach could be replaced by a fast track.
Once it was offered in 1991, the course has had a fairy tale like journey and is the most the
sought after course in the engineering circles. The course sought after course in the engineering
circles. The course has undergone Few design organizations as well as eminent piping engineers
joined hands with IIT Bombay and methodically designed a formal Certificate Course on Piping
Engineering for chemical and mechanical continuous revisions, helped to a large extent by the
feedback given by the participants and the industry. It is now an optimal mixture of theory and
practice. The instruction hours are shared by IIT faculty and speakers from industry, the latter
playing a significant role. The activity was institutionalized through the formation of Piping
Engineering Cell in CAD Centre which now conducts this course. The acceptance of the course
by the industry has virtually forced the hands of various software houses and the Piping
Engineering Cell has now a collection of most state-of-the-art piping engineering software.

2.1 REVIEW OF LITERATURE:
MARKETING:
is the management process responsible for identifying, anticipating and satisfying
customer requirements efficiently and profitably.
-Charted Institute of marketing
Marketing is the human activity directed at satisfying needs and wants through an exchange
process.
-Philip kotler
If the company has obtained an adequate understanding of student base and its own competitive
position in the company, marketing managers are able to make their own key strategic decisions
and develop a marketing strategy designed to maximize the revenues and profits of the institute.
The selected strategy may aim for any of a variety of specific objectives, including optimizing
short term unit margins, revenue growth, market share, long term profitability, or other goals.
In conjunction with targeting decisions, marketing managers will identify the desired positioning
they want the company, course, or brand to occupy in the target customer’s(student’s) mind. This
positioning is often an encapsulation of a key benefit the company’s products or service offers
that is differentiated and superior to the benefits offered by competitive service.
Ideally, a firm’s positioning can be maintained over a long period of time because the
company possesses, or can develop, some form of sustainable competitive advantage. The
positioning should also be sufficiently relevant to the target segment such that it will drive the
purchasing behavior of target customer(student).
Marketing concept:
*Student satisfaction is not only means to earn profit but also the socio economic
justification for the survival of business enterprise.
*Profits are major incentive for being in business and prerequisite for remaining in
business.
11
*Profitable satisfaction of student wants requires an integration & coordination of all
business activities and this can be accomplished through customer oriented plans and
strategies.
Modern marketing :
Modern marketing begins with student not with , technological land marks and it ends
with the customer satisfaction and social well being.
Opportunities for marketing success:
*Opportunity to provide student satisfaction is of paramount importance. It is the ultimate
justification for marketing. It represents discovery of student wants yet to be satisfied.
*Opportunity to innovative:
i.e. to develop new course to devise new service to fine new ways of distributing
course.
*Opportunity to improve marketing efficient is also challenge in marketing management. .
*Opportunity to create competitive difference is big challenge in all means of promotion.
It can give individuality &unique status. Branding & advertising can create competitive
difference.
*Opportunity to carve out a market niche is based on market segmentation an extremely
useful & important device in modern marketing.
unapplication of marketing techniques and the management of a firm’s marketing resources and
activities. Rapidly emerging forces of globalization have compelled firms to market beyond the
borders of their home country making international marketing highly significant and an integral
part of firm’s marketing strategy. Marketing managers are often responsible for influencing the
level, timing and composition of student demand accepted definition of the term. In part, this is
because the role of a marketing manager can vary significantly based on a business’s size,
corporate culture.
ADVERTISING:
is a form of commercial mass communication designed to promote the sale of product or
service or message on behalf of an institution, organization or candidate for political office.
12
Advertising is any paid form of non personal presentation and promotion of ideas, goods
and services through mass media such as newspapers, magazines, television or radio by an
identified sponsor.
OBJECTIVES OF ADVERTISING:
• to announce the new course
• to make special offer
• to announce a course modification
STUDENT DEVELOPMENT:
In the middle of the twentieth century the student service paradigm started to be replaced
by the student development paradigm. This paradigm was influenced by the growing body of
psychological and sociological theories, reflecting the idea that student learn both in class and out
of class and are influenced both by their genetics and social environment. Student development
theories stress that every student is a different individual with unique needs.

3.1 RESEARCH METHODOLOGY:
INTRODUCTION:
Research includes scientific and inductive thinking which promotes development if logical
habit of thinking and organization it has special significance in solving various operational and
planning problems of business and industry.
Research design is purely and simply the framework or plan for a study that guides the
collection and analysis of data. It is blue print that follows completing a study.
Research design adapted for the purpose of this study has been descriptive in nature. The
conclusion has been drawn by making a detailed analysis of whole data collected for the purpose
study from the existing respondents.
Research methodology is a systematic way to solve the research problem. It may be
understood as a science of studying how research is done scientifically. It is we study the various
steps that are generally adopted by a researcher in studying the research problem along with the
logic behind them. It is necessary for the researcher to know not only the research method or
techniques but also methodology. Researcher need to know how to develop the tests, how to
calculated the mean, how to apply research technique which are relevant and which not the
knowledge or research methodology provide tools to take things objectively.
RESEARCH DESIGN:
Research design is the blue print of the proposed study. It represented the overall scheme
of the study. “A research design is a logical and systematic planning and it helps directing a piece
of research according to Shah Jahan in his book, “ Research Methodology” .
Studies concerned with individual, market condition, demand status and so on.
Descriptive research design is used for this study.
SAMPLE DESIGN:
A sample design is a definite plan for obtaining a sample from a given population. It refers
to the technique or the procedure the researcher would adopt in selecting items for the sample.
14
Sample design may as well lay down the number of items to be included in the sample that is the
size of the sample. Sample design in determined before data are collected.
DESCRIPTIVE RESEARCH DESIGN :
Descriptive research studies are those studies which are concerned with describing the
characteristics of the particular individual or of a group. Studies concerned with specific situation
or change with narration of facts and characteristics concerning individual , group of people ,
market condition, demand status and so on.
SAMPLE UNIT:
At Bibrain institute 80 students are studying. These 80 students were considered as the
sample unit.
SAMPLE SIZE:
All the 80 students were considered as the samples. So the sample size taken for
this research is 80.
DATA COLLECTION METHOD:
Structured questionnaire was prepared for the purpose of collection of data.
Primary data collection through a structured questionnaire a combination of dichotomous
questions, closed-ended questions, open-ended questions were prepared. The closed ended
questions are prepared using likert’s point scale.
Primary data it is collected a fresh for the first time and is thus original in character.
CHI-SQUARE TEST:
Objective of the chi-square test to determine whether there is any significant differences
exists among the various groups. Chi-square test involves comparison of expected frequency(E)
with observed frequency(0) to determine whether difference between the two greater than the
tabulated value that might occur by chance.
There are five steps in using chi- square test:
1.The different between each observed frequency and each expected frequency is computed
2.The difference is squared
15
3.Each squared difference is divided by the respective expected frequency
4.Their quotients are added together to obtain the computed chi-square value
5.This computed value is the compared to tabulated chi-square value
If the compute x2 value is greater than tabulated x2 value at a level of significance and degrees of
freedom, the hypothesis is rejected
On the other hand if the calculated x2 value is less than the tabulated value the hypothesis is
accepted.
FORMULA:
X2=(O-E)2/E
Where x2 =chi-square
O=Observed frequency
E=Expected frequency
