Problem Statement:
Since supply chains operate as a system or network, supply chain issues affect the entire
supply chain In the supply chain as a whole this can lead to greater inefficiency. The
organization faces a challenge of quality of raw material and managing it to one single
standard of quality, as they are taking raw material from different suppliers. Temperature
issues in production, distribution. And transportation of raw material and they face issues
regarding energy crisis., making the Production management difficult. In order to make the
right decisions for the supply chain as a whole, the consequences of acts and choices to one
section of the supply chain should be weighed. This report tries to address this question:
Is there evidence of inefficiencies in the supply chain or of problems which penetrate
Nestle Milk Pak entire supply chain?
Scope of report:

Milk Gathering:
Nestle has the biggest milk assortment framework in the
nation which is assembled from the two dairy animals End Consumers
and bison.Retailers
Nestle has an exceptionally wide and broad
system of town milk focus (VMCS), sub focuses which
is extensively stretch out in the nation roughly more than
2000 VMCs and 500-600 sub communities. Milk
contains low sodium, high fat and solid not fat (SNF)
and extremely low in bacterial tally. On the off chance
that the milk isn't up to these standard that milk is
dismissed. As we realize that milk is a biodegradable
thing in this system to guarantee milk according to quality measures assortment of chillers are
arranged at the assortment communities which will safeguard the milk from bacterial
development.
Managing milk collection
Nestle has 24 areas and every district gathers milk from 60-70 milk assortment sub focuses
and VMCS. Every locale is leaded by regional milk collection manager (RMCM) who is
capable to sort out all the exercises inside its district. Territory in-charge (TIs) keeps the
steady gracefully line with the providers and ranchers and gathers milk from 10 assortment
sub focuses and he has some objective of milk assortment which he needs to satisfy. Volume
of milk assortment is determined by national milk collection managers (NMCM). These
domain volumes of milk assortment are additionally part in to sub focus that must be
recognized on day by day bases. TIs are additionally capable to ensure the best quality and
sterile practices, quality testing and record keeping at the sub habitats. Each sub place has
given time with the goal that truck gathers the milk and transports to the chillers of
fundamental assortment communities. Each milk truck has limit of most extreme 8 to 10 tons.
Milk is siphoned from the chillers to the truck holding territory which is a very efficient
strategy. From the primary appropriation place close to mid night through enormous
protected big haulers of least limit 20 to 25 tons delivered to processing plant. The protected
big haulers and mid evening time helps in keeping up the milk temperature underneath 4C
during the excursion. At the production line all the milk testing are by and by rehashed; in the
event that any of the test isn't certain, at that point milk is come back to the assortment habitats.
Production of milk
As Milk is reached to the production line it is put away in huge tanks called Silo for 366 hours. The
Capacity of Silos is as per the following:
Normalization:
As milk is assembled from wild oxen and cows so the fat substance in milk changes in each
season. In this manner milk must be normalized to adjust the fat and SNF (Solid Not Fat) of
milk according to legitimate gauges. Milk is given a temperature of 72°C for 15 seconds to
kill the microscopic organisms. So by normalization, timeframe of realistic usability of this
biodegradable thing is expanded and milk is normalized according to necessity.
De-creaming:
In this procedure assortment of earth molecule, SNF and cream is disconnected from the
normalized milk, milk is prepared at a temperature of 60°C for 60,000rpm (cycles every
moment) in de half and half. Cream is accumulated and it is sent to the margarine segment for
additional preparing and soil particles are isolates and milk is prepared for additional
procedure.
Purification:
It is the most basic advance of milk preparing and in this procedure milk is warmed at a
temperature of 92°C for 5 seconds to wreck the hurtful microscopic organisms and increment
the time span of usability of the milk with the goal that milk can be put in the racks in
unrefrigerated condition. Sanitized milk is as yet biodegradeable item and will lose its value
in this way it must be put away in chilly condition by the providers and clients.
Bundling:
It is the last step of milk preparing now the sanitized milk is pressed naturally in various sizes.
Warehouse:
The completed tetra pack is dispatched to the production line product place which is 4 km
away from the handling plant. Production line product house is situated close to the plant to
lessen the transportation cost. At Factory stockroom temperature is controlled to ensure the
state of the milk is new when it arrives at the buyers. Milk is an entirely transient thing,
thusly it needs extremely adequate capacity conditions at stockrooms to save milk in its
genuine condition. For this Nestle milkpak distribution centers have entirely reasonable
temperature that ought not increment from 38°C so as to keep safeguarded milk in its new
condition.
Inventory Management:
The stock is managed by the software called SAP.
Another strategy for managing stock is "manual
counts"(tallies) that is finished by the inventory clerk.
On regular basis who is explicitly recruited for this
reason. The counted stocks are recorded on a
whiteboard that’s put inside the distribution
center(warehouse). it contains not simply the data
about the name and number of items yet additionally
in which path they are and in what volume they are in.
The whiteboard data is upgraded every time a picker
picks the order and furthermore when the products are
stacked on truck for conveyance.
For additional validation, the barcodes are put down to scan the cartons whenever they get in
and out of the warehouse (distribution center).
The batch code gives us the following information
1. Year of product manufactured
2. Day of year when the product was packed
3. Manufacturing plant code
4. The number of time that product went through the machine
5. A machine code
Distribution:
distribution is the way toward moving an item from manufacturing source (assembling source) to its
customers. Nestlé’s is isolated into 3 geographical zones.
1. North zone
2. Central zone
3. South zone
Distribution Process:
distributors have dealers (sales forces) to take orders. 2 methods are used for distribution
1. Booking orders
2. Selling on spot
in booking order dealers (sales force) first take orders from retailers and then deliver them the
goods while in selling on spot the sellers are given the van full of milk Pak to sell them.
Nestle milk Pak has indirect ditribution. that implies that there is a chain of mediators through
which an item travels through extra strides as it moves from distributors to wholesalers and
afterward to retailers or super stores. There are 3 territories for each distributor per area in
“A” territory every alternate day van visits. In “B” territory twice a week van visits and in
“C” territory once a week van visits.
Value chain:
Value chain is process or activity by which firm adds value to the product, including
manufacturing, sales and marketing and after sales services.
Inbound logistic involves all the goods that is coming to business. It’s about receiving and
warehousing all the raw material brought from suppliers for production., the distribution and
manufacturing of product. Inbound logistics for the milk collection from various suppliers of
milk and then bringing it to the production plant. Operation involves the conversion process.
Turning raw material into finished good. Outbound logistic involve all the process after
conversion. Moving good from plant to warehouse and then distribution of good to the end
users. Nestle milk Pak outbound logistic is concerned with finished milk Pak from factory to
Distributors and then to the retailers. Marketing involve the selling for milk pak. All the
promotional campaigns and marketing strategy to sell the finished good. Services is in which
after sales services are provided to the end users.
IPO diagram represents the relationship between input, process and output. This diagram
provides the clear picture of the used input and outputs produced from the functions. This
tool is mostly used as a way to document a program. In broader perspective the input used
tells us that it will be utilized for process the process step itself is used to solve the issues that
Nestle Milk Pak is facing and represent the working of the functions or output it the data
obtained of the modification involved in steps.

Sipoc is a tool that represent the scope of the process its supplies, inputs, processes, outputs
and customers. It represents the flow of the process in the form of table. This operation
management tool is used to design a process and to make improvement in it. It gives relevant
information before the project begins. It will help nestle Milk Pak to find the source of the
issue that from where it is taking place or occurring. For further understanding of process that
where the issues lie and where is the break down in the process in this way they can talk to
those people who are directly involved in it. Get their view point and know that where things
are wrong and what they think about certain issue and how improve.
Bottlenecks (Problems)
The biggest challenge that Nestle milk Pak face is maintaining one standard of quality. As they
purchase milk from various milk suppliers(farmers) so the quality of every milk is different from one
another. So it is a big problem for them to ensure one quality standard for their milk and ensure
health, nutrition and wellbeing. The second major issue they face is at the time of picking supplies of
milk from farmers and taking it to production plant. The temperature required it 5 degrees so the
temperature management is a challenge for them to if there is fluctuation in temperature the milk
splits. Energy crisis is also an issue during production if machinery stops or gets disrupted the batch
being manufacture might get wasted it has to be ensured that very frequently things are handled
and managed to avoid the disruption else the batch is spoiled or may not ensure desired quality.
Milk is a perishable item so it requires certain temperature and ways to be stored to increase its
shelf life so after production when milk is transferred to warehouse temperature management in
warehouse is also a problem. The last but not the least there is seasonal fluctuation they have flush
and lean seasonal periods in flush period they have a lot of milk supply while in lean they have milk
shortages they have difficulty in managing a lot of milk and in lean period they issue in meeting the
demand of market.
Recommendation:
Nestle milk Pak should get their own farm and cows for milk. They should introduce vertical shelves
in warehouses and high roof ceilings. Use sensor based alarms which gives an alert when
temperature fluctuates so that frequently things can be handled and overcome the damage. Use
different other ways of electricity like solar system or make sure that generator may abruptly
operate when there is load shedding to avoid delay and disruption in production process. They
should introduce them on farms and milk so they can minimize the challenge of milk to split while
bringing it from farms to production plants there would be not much management required to
maintain temperature for longer time if they have their own milk supply near the production plant
which will not only help them to save the milk from splitting but this will reduce their transportation
cost and time. When they face seasonal fluctuation like flush and lean periods. In flush period they
should manufacture products that have a longer shelf life they should introduce their new line of
nestle powder milk Pak. Lean and flush season can be handled that nestle milk Pak store milk in flush
season when there is excessive supply of milk and store that for lean season to meet the demand.
Key findings:
After the research and data collection we find out that the major issue that Nestle Milk Pak
is facing is transportation of Raw material, temperature maintenance, quality management,
distribution and energy crisis
Conclusion:
They are facing certain problems in supply which affect them as whole. This report finds that
we can improve the productivity by various factors. Our focus was on few of the major
factors that resulted effectively. We emphasized on the quality of raw material maintenance
by introducing their own Farm and cows which would help them to easily maintain the
quality standard of the product and will reduce the risk factor or spoiling milk in
transportation of raw material and reduce the cost and price of the product. Energy shutdown
or equipment disruption is also a factor that effects the quality of output of Milk.
Through improving every single process involved by using automatic or sensor based system
to regulate the processes which would help to improve efficiency. the point to ponder is that
no effectiveness an improvement can be achieved without the performance of each individual
involved in the process of supply chain. Workers should be qualified and proper training
should be given to them to operate the automatic systems and have ability to solve the
problems when they exist. Nestle Milk Pak should implement the strategies for the system so
it can improve its function which leads to high productivity.
At last we might want to conclude that Nestle Pakistan is the pioneer of FMCG industry.
Nestle monitors its products by maintaining its supply chain everywhere throughout the
nation. from manufacturing to distribution channel. everything is done appropriately and
overseen well. they have solid relationship with customers as well as with their providers,
merchants and retailers. the manufacturing of Nestle is the quality and serves as competitive
advantage for them. Nestle as a result of its ideal framework. The cleanliness, wellbeing and
security control is done under settle Milk Pak's manufacturing plant.
