Retail value management Before The managers were hardly aware of the market dynamics. wholesalers controlled the market and dictated the prices. Tata Steel failed to assess the quality of the retail network in terms of its coverage and capacity to absorb volumes. Lack of control led to unethical practices at retail points. After Reduce volatility in its revenue streams and consequently stabilize profit margins for the distributors and retailers. The marketing team was better positioned to appreciate the nuances of retail marketing and to develop area-specific initiatives. This initiative has helped Tata Steel to gain number one spot in term of sales of galvanised corrugated sheets.

Implementation of SAP Before implementationResults of SAP implementation The employees and management at Tata Steel faced a cumbersome task exchanging and retrieving information from the system. The reliability of information obtained was questionable because of inconsistency and duplication of data from different departments. There was no built-in integrity check for various data sources. Several times the information against certain items was found missing. The manpower cost has reduced from over $ 200 per ton two years ago, to about $140 per ton in 2000. The overdue outstanding has been brought down from Rs 5170 millions in 1999 to Rs 4033 millions by June 2000. The inventory carrying cost has drastically deflated from Rs 190 per ton to Rs 155 per ton. With SAP's solution Tata Steel can now update their customers on a daily basis and provide seamless services across the country improving customer management. The availability of online information has facilitated quicker and reliable trend analysis for efficient decision-making.
