INTRODUCTION

Dhaka Dying and Manufacturing Company Limited, (DDMCL), is one of the oldest and most reputed Home textile companies of Bangladesh. This company started its journey in 1963 and since then it did not look back. During the last 45 years by dint of its commitment to quality and wide range of innovative products, it has gained the confidence of unlimited buyers both at home and abroad.

The company owns and operates one composite Textile plant at Tongi, Gazipur. It has preparatory, weaving, dyeing, finishing and printing facilities producing high quality of bed sheet, bed cover, napkin, table cloth, shirting fabrics, towels, bath linens, kitchen linen and all sorts of home textile products for marketing in Europe and North America. To some extent the company’s products penetrate into the local market as well. The company is by far the largest supplier f linens to the major institution of Bangladesh like Pan Pacific Sonar gong Hotel, Dhaka Sheraton Hotel Radisson Water Garden Hotel, Apollo Hospital, Square Hospital, United Hospital, ICDDRB etc.

There are six departments in this company. They include Admin department, Weaving department, Dyeing department, Stitching Department, Maintenance Department, and Marketing Department. The production units of the company are CAD & LAB, Weaving Section, Dyeing and Finishing Section, Printing Section, and Stitching Section.

We prepared our report on the performance of Dacca Dyeing and manufacturing Company Limited. We have acquired some pragmatic information about it. Here we derive necessary information about the management practices carried out by it notably on inventory handling, human resources handling, assembly line arrangement, accounting system working, customization with standardization and cost control mechanism. We have decided to focus on some major overall management practices of the production units because the whole is better than small part in one hand and management practices generally change as a whole to ensure fairness in other hand. With ask-and-answer knowledge and personal observations we have found out the following management practices going on our focus topic:

Inventory Handling

An inventory is a stock of materials used to satisfy customers’ demand or to support the reduction of goods and services. It consists of raw materials, work in progress, and finished goods. The Dacca Dyeing and manufacturing has been handling its inventories in an effective and efficient way. Its management practices in regard to inventory handling include:

  • Row materials are purchased from both inside and out side the country based on orders kept in a central store after matching with the invoices on the basis of production units and making entry in the store ledgers. It is noted that materials were only purchased from abroad in the past.
  • Each production unit keeps the records of their work in progress inventories and report in a proper time period to the store.
  • Finished goods are kept in a well-neat and well-protected warehouse in their order-delivery sequence along with proper recording of in and out. And Marketing Department is strong enough not to leave finished goods in the warehouse.

The company has been maintaining perpetual inventory system. Although at first it was manual, today the system is computerized. The store is to report to the accounts section of Admin department for all types of inventories.

Human Resource Handling

Basically, human resources are the sum total of skills, abilities and aptitudes of the labor force employed by the company or an organization. It is said that The Dacca Dyeing and Manufacturing has more machines than employees. Notwithstanding, it employs as many as 1625 employees. DDMCL is a fully compliant in regard to labor dealings since its operations. The management practices of Dacca Dying and Manufacturing in the field of human resources handling involve:

  • Workers are paid monthly to create the feeling of job security
  • Working hours are strictly enforced, 8 hours for each shift with half an hour break.
  • Entrance room into the plant is closely guarded to ensure safety.
  • Work environment is employee-friendly involving adequate ventilation, lighting, well space between machines, clean sanitation, first aid facility, clear do and don’t do sign, and the like.
  • Bonus, incentives and paid vacations are provided to motivate the employees.
  • Indoor training facilities are provided to increase the skills of the present work force and in turn their productivity.
  • Child labor is totally banned.

Production Unit Arrangement

Production unit is that segment of a manufacturing concern where the production related activities are carried out. The Dacca Dyeing & Manufacturing has five production units. Those production units are CAD & LAB, Weaving Section, Dyeing and Finishing Section, Printing Section, and Stitching Section. All these units are operated with highly sophisticated and state-of-the-art machinery and equipments and by adequately skilled workers as well. All machinery and equipments as well as the production units are arranged on the basis of line flow. But the uniqueness of this kind of arrangement is that both customized and standardized products are being produced at comparatively least cost of resources.

Accounting System Working

The Dacca Dying Manufacturing Company Limited was incorporated on 31.12.1963 as a public limited company. The company was nationalized in 1972 and again returned back to previous shareholders in 1977. The company is taken over by the present sponsors on 8th August 1995 by share transfer. Since it is a public limited company, it has to keep the

records of its all transactions in journals and ledgers according to GAAP and prepare and publish financial statements to fulfill company act requirement. Previously the accounting system was manual but today it is a computerized one. Besides, all journals ledgers and financial statements were prepared following British accounting system but today all these are done following American accounting system. Above all, earlier duplicates were prepared along with original documents for safety purpose and future use where a separate computer has been maintained for the same purpose.

Customization with Standardization

Customization refers to satisfying the unique needs of each customer by changing service or product design. On the other hand, standardization means to produce identical products or services to satisfy the needs of market as a whole. The Dacca Dying and Manufacturing Company Limited is highly customized in case of its foreign markets. On the contrary, the company is both customized and standardized in case of local market. This dual manufacturing with a single process obviously helps the company to be a pioneer in its business.

Cost Control Mechanism

Cost control is the ways and means of minimizing cost of products or services. It can be done by increasing productivity, increasing negotiation power, and reducing wastages and shrinkages. There is no denying the fact that the Dacca Dying and manufacturing Company Limited strives to minimize its cost to be competitive. But this is the only point of discussion where I did receive serious reservation. But with my determination and willingness to learn, I was able to identify some cost control mechanisms. They are-

  • More capital intensive than labor intensive
  • The arrangement of indoor training to increase productivity
  • Outsourcing some of its products from other manufacturers within the country.

Risk factors

Any investment always associates with risks. Among those risks some can be averted, others are beyond control, which may causes of loss. Before making any investment decision, Investors should take the risk factors into consideration. Major such factors are described in brief as under:

(a) Interest rate risk

Interest/financial charges are paid against any kind of borrowed fund. Volatility in money market and increased demand for loan presses on interest rate structure to be fixed in high. Raising of interest rate increases the cost of fund for a company, which have borrowed fund, and consequently profit is squeezed.

Management view:

The management of the company is always aware of interest rate, which is concerned to the cost of fund of the company. The management prefers in procuring of the long-term fund with minimum fixed interest rate and the short-term fund with reasonable competitive rate. On the other hand management of the company is emphasizing on equity based financing.

(b) Exchange Rate Risk

The company is 80% export oriented. The products of the company are sold against foreign currency and payments for raw material are also made in foreign currency. If exchange rate is increased against local currency opportunity is created for getting more revenue against sale in local currency. On the other hand if exchange rate goes down margin is squeezed in local currency.

Management View:

The exchange rate of the country is traditionally witnessed of upward trends, which makes ample opportunity of export. On the other hand, management perceives revaluation of local currency i.e. down trend of exchange rate will have little impact on profitability of the company.

(c) Industry Risk

Textile is the largest industrial sub-sector in Bangladesh. It contributes highest in the country’s total export earnings, gives employment to over four million people meets the second basic need for clothing of the country and contributes around 50% of the industrial value addition. But, after phasing out of the MFA, the global textile trade is now free from quota restriction. The phasing out of MFA has created a tough competitive environment, where Bangladesh is now competing the countries like China, India Pakistan, Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam etc. countries that are very strong in production of textile goods.

Management View:

The textile industry has successfully coped with the post MFA competitive situation. The force, which is helping the sector for its strong existence, is emergence of backward linkage industry. Backward linkage industries are supporting for minimizing lead-time and cost of production.

(d) Market and Technology related Risk

1) Market Risk:

Among the functional areas in a textile company, marketing exerts the sheer part of the importance. Proper implementation of the marketing tools as well as identifying new clients will ensure the success of the project. The continuous changes on preference in the yarn market will force the company to catch the trend. For which the company has to produce goods for international demand.

Management View:

The company sets its focus only export market through inland back-to-back letter of credits. The management is trying to sell through direct contact with the customers in the selected regions understanding their needs. The company also has established relationship with potential buyers across the world and expects to find market for its capacity despite competition prevailing in the sector. Further, the commercial banks and financial institutions provide a thrust in the textile sectors as they provide credit facilities to textile industries to acquire the yarn for their final products.

2) Technology related Risk

The production facilities of textile sectors are based on high-tech machineries. So any invention of new and more cost effective technology may cause functional obsolescence resulting in further substantial capital investment.

Management View:

The Dacca Dying and Manufacturing Company Limited are equipped with the most modern technologies. As per previous experience no frequent technological change has taken place in this industry so far. Furthermore according to feasibility study report as well as in practice this projects earning capacity is satisfactory and payback period is short. So investment in the machineries will be recovered before any major technological change becomes commercially effective. In addition the project is capable to absorb any small technological changes.

(e) Potential or existing government regulation:

The company operates under companies act, taxation policy adopted by NBR, Security and Exchange Commission (SEC)’s rules and rules adopted by other regulatory organizations. Any abrupt changes of the policies formed by those bodies will impact the business of the company adversely.

Management View:

Unless any adverse policies are taken, which may materially affect the industry as a whole; the business of the company will not be affected. Government emphasizes on the growth of textile industry to boost up the export of home textile goods. Yet the promoters and the sponsors have endeavor to convince the policy makers for adopting favorable terms& condition, which will eventually help the home textile manufacturers of Bangladesh to compete with low cost locations in the global arena.

(f) Potential changes in global or international polices

The performance of the company may be affected by the political and economical instability both in Bangladesh and worldwide. Any instance of political turmoil and disturbance in the country may adversely affect the economy in general.

Management View:

The company can prosper in a situation of political instability and a congenial business environment. Political turmoil and disturbance are bad for the economy and so also for us.

g) Operational Risk

Shortage of power supply, labor unrest, unavailability or price increase of raw material, natural calamities like flood, cyclone, earth quack etc. may disrupt the production of the company and can adversely impact the profitability of the company.

Management View:

The compensation as well as benefit package will restrain the employees to leave their assignment and go for any employee movement for higher benefit package. The project of the company is situated at a high land where less record of flood. The factory building has strong RCC foundation, RCC floor, pre-fabricated steel structure to withstand wind, storm, rain etc. along with good drainage facility. The risks from these factors are also covered through Insurance. The company is also facilitated to keep a rational reserve for any future price escalation of the raw materials.

Findings

There are some problems involved in the business dealings of DDMCL. Some of them relate to DDMCL’s own institutional weaknesses and some of them relate to the clients. From the above discussion we obtain the following findings:

  • The working condition in the factory is not conducive to the employees.
  • Lack of on-time delivery is another shortcoming of DDMCL.
  • Inconsistent profit margin hinders the overall organizational progress.

Recommendations

It is very difficult to give any recommendation about the operation of DDMCL, because we are not an efficient appraiser. However, so far we understand, going through various textile related books and journal we can give some suggestions that how to recover existing problems of DDMCL.

  • A plan at all levels of the organization, not just at the aggregate level should be established.
  • The process that would foster consistent and open communication should be formed.
  • Clear and measurable team and individuals goals should be settled down.
  • Persons involved in the day to day operations should have more expertise and practical knowledge.
  • All departments should be well informed regarding their goal and objectives. It is essential to execute company objective into individual target.
  • Employees should be properly trained-up in order to cope up with changing technologies.
  • Harmonious and cordial relationship should be formed between employers and employees.
  • Poor working condition should be substituted by agreeable working condition.
  • Technological Know-How should be learnt in a continuous basis.
  • JIT (Just in time ) method should be incorporated in the delivery process
  • The company should introduce more promotional activities.
  • Existing management practices should be modernized.
