BACKGROUND AND INSPECTION OF THE COMPANY

BMS College for women Page 3


An Analysis Of Productivity Improvement Through TQM At HAL (Engine Division BC)

Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) came into existence on1st October 1964. The
Company was formed by the merger of Hindustan Aircraft Limited with Aeronautics India
Limited and Aircraft Manufacturing Depot, Kanpur.
The Company traces its roots to the pioneering efforts of an industrialist with extraordinary
vision, the late Seth WalchandHirachand, who set up Hindustan Aircraft Limited at Bangalore in
association with the erstwhile princely State of Mysore in December 1940. The Government of
India became a shareholder in March 1941 and took over the Management in 1942.

For six decades, HAL has spread its wings to cover various activities in the areas if
Design and Development, Manufacture and Maintenance of advanced fighters, piston and jet
engine trainers, commercial aircraft, helicopters and the associated aero engines, aircraft
systems, equipment and avionics.
The 14 manufacturing units are fully supported by nine R&D centers: HAL’s product
track record consists of 12 types of aircraft from in house R&D and 13 types by license
production inclusive or eight types of aero engines and over 900 items of Aircraft systems
Equipment (Avionics & Accessories).
HAL has so far produced over 3400 Aircrafts, 3100 Aero Engines and overhauled over 7000
Aircraft and 23000 Aero Engines along with related systems and equipment.
Recognizing the business opportunities offered by the growth of Civil Aviation, HAL has
embarked on a programme for the co-production of 50-70 seated aircraft with a partner, and is
also slated with partner for co-development and manufacture of 100 seated aircraft. HAL has
gradually undergone a metamorphosis and grown into a major aeronautical complex with fully
integrated facilities for design, development manufacture and maintenance.
HAL is comparable admirably to international aerospace companies like BAE Systems,
Pratt & Whitney, Boeing, Rolls Royce and Honey Well as well as some Indian private sector
companies such as Reliance with regard to key financial parameter such as PBT to sales, PBIT to
capital employed, earning per share, Debt, Equity ratio etc., This reflects the sound financial
health of the company.

COMPETITORS INFORMATION
The company does not have any competitors in domestic market, for its aircraft. It requires
huge sum of money and vast area of land for establishing a company and it also involves huge
risk, which the private parties would not like to take. The aircraft division manufactures aircrafts
purely for countries defense purposes. So its main customer is IAF (Indian Air Force).

BMS College for women Page 7


An Analysis Of Productivity Improvement Through TQM At HAL (Engine Division BC)

But the company is having few competitors for its export projects like Boeing & Airbus
doors from countries like China and Pakistan.
Since the incorporation of the HAL, it has never experienced competition as such being
the monopolistic organization in the manufacturing aircrafts in the nation. But with the pass of
time different organizations like Infosys, Satyam, Tata Consultancy Services and few other
companies have given a threatening call to HAL in design works of aircrafts using Computer
Aided Design. These companies have also indulged in poaching of employees from HAL by
offering good salary and perks.

STYLE

The leadership approach of top management and the organization’s overall operating
approach; also the way in which the organization’s employees present themselves to the outside
world, to suppliers and customers.

Style is pattern of actions that are more decisive than words. People may listen to what
managers say, but they believe what managers do. The appropriate style is participative, allowing
people to collaborative and supports each other, take calculated risk and innovative
improvements. It will not work for the management to say that it is the organization’s policy to
encourage participation and innovation, if at the same time they also punish those who make
mistakes.

The management style of functioning is PARTICIPATIVE in Engine Division, HAL. Any


issue of significance is discussed with members of management representatives and workmen to
find an amicable solution. Besides these, any policy implementation is done after threadbare
discussion among various groups of employees. In case of any confusion, reservation stroke of

WASTE ELIMINATION STRATEGY IMPLEMENTED BY HAL

LEAN MANAGEMENT

Lean is a systematic approach to identifying and eliminating waste or non- value added
activities in a supply chain through continues improvement with the goal of creating maximum
value.

Lean has subsequently spread to aero industries and also a host related industry. It is now as
established fundamental approach for world class manufacturing, distribution and service
sectors.

The strategy of many multinationals continues to be the relocation to fax favorable countries
across the world. This means more extensive and complex distribution and logistics challenges.
Therefore, there is a clear need to be as lean throughout the extended supply and delivery chain
is possible. There is a compelling case for all of these links to work in as efficient and lean
manner as possible in order to deliver finished product on time and within budge and to avoid
costly delays or errors within the process.

The ideas of flow embraced by “learners” have their roots in the aeronautics Production system
nothing that interrupts the flow of products and services through the value stream and out to the
customer is designated mud or waste. They study the value stream and achieve uninterrupted
flow from raw material to delivered products and services. They savagely eliminate waste from
these processes.

The companies through process analysis and lean accounting, identify wastes within the
company’s value streams and savagely eliminates this waste through the introduction of flow and
pull methods. True “learners” rejected benchmarking because they say the company’s goals and
objectives are to eliminate all waste. The company does not compare itself to other companies.
The challenge is internal- “How much waste can be eliminated this month.”

BMS College for women Page 18


An Analysis Of Productivity Improvement Through TQM At HAL (Engine Division BC)

Lean management accounting

Lean management accounting is a series of methods design to support lean thinking. Lean
management accounting methods must themselves be lean and not introduce additional waste. In
particular, all transactions are regarded as waste because they do not add value to the product or
services. Lean management accounting seeks to eliminate transactions while maintaining control
of the operation, recognizing that control of a value stream (or process) does not always require
keeping detailed transaction information. Many times simplified systems are better controlled
procedurally through visual approaches and empowerment of the people.

Example

Eliminating transactions is the back flushing of materials and costs in a production process.
Under a lean approach, instead of reporting the movement of raw material and of labour hours
against a production job as it is made. All these transactions can be created when the product is
completed on the shop floor.

Lean production is an assembly-line manufacturing methodology developed originally for aero


space industry and for the manufacture of automobiles. The goals of lean production is described
as “to get the right things to the right place at the right time: the first time, while minimizing and
being open to change”.

Therefore developing the principles of lean production discovered in addition to eliminating


waste is methodology led to improved product flow and better quality.

SYSTEMS

A system is the element of the 7S model that tends to dominate the others. Whether or not the
matrix organization works, depending on how well operational systems are designed and
implemented. An ill designed and implemented system may turn an organization into a situation,
which is not consistent with the original intention of developing the system.

BMS College for women Page 19


An Analysis Of Productivity Improvement Through TQM At HAL (Engine Division BC)

HAL has successfully completed many systems updates and integration tasks. HAL has 9
Research and Design Centers engaged in the design and development of combat aircraft,
helicopters, aero engines, gas turbines, engine test beds, aircraft communication and navigation
systems and mechanical system accessories.

scheme has 4 channel/cadres as workmen are categorized on their qualification.

STAFF

The people/human resource management- processes used to develop managers, socialization


processes, ways of shaping basic values of management cadre, ways of introducing young
recruits to the company, ways of helping to manage the careers of

employees. The company’s people resources and how they are developed, trained and motivated.
The employees of the company are appointed from all over India. It includes both technical and
non-technical employees. The recruitment system in HAL is not 100% centralized. In certain
cases employees are appointed in each division.

BMS College for women Page 21


An Analysis Of Productivity Improvement Through TQM At HAL (Engine Division BC)

RESPECT FOR INDIVIDUAL


We value our people. We will treat each other with dignity and respect and strive for
individual growth and realization of everyone's full potential.

INTEGRITY
We believe in a commitment to be honest, trustworthy, and fair in all our dealings. We
commit to be loyal and devoted to our organization. We will practice self discipline and own
responsibility for our actions. We will comply with all requirements so as to ensure that our
organization is always worthy of trust.
VALUE STREAM recognizes that the company’s processes create excellence and customer-
driven performance. Trading departmental control structures run counter to lean thinking. We
must understand, control, and manage our business through the processes, or value streams, of
the organization. This includes three top-level value streams in manufacturing companies; the
“make product” value stream, the “design and problem solve” value stream, and the value stream
that includes the company’s transactions.And controls these value streams often extend outside
of the company itself into the suppliers, the customers, and partner organizations.

Pulls is an important mechanism to enable flow of the products and services. Nothing should be
“Pushed” through production or services processes; everything is “pulled” based upon the
customer’s real demand and requirement. Again this is based upon the aerospace Production
Systems that puts great emphasis on “pull” and the use of other visual methods to facilitate a pull
approach. If this approach is employed throughout an organization thee will be very little
inventory because the organization will make only what the customer is immediately “pulling” in
terms of demand upon the production plant.
