                                                      ❖ A brief overview of the project

                                                      I  Interned  in  ITC  in  its  Educational  &  Stationary  Products
                                                      business segment. I got an opportunity to be a part of two live
                                                      projects during my internship.

                                                      Project 1:

                                                       Optimization of Finished Goods Warehouse Layout
                                                         Objective:

                                                      •  Improve  the  Storage  Capacity  of  WMS  implemented
                                                          Warehouse, by Optimizing the Bin Size
                                                      •  Design the Warehouse Layout, to increase the throughput
                                                          and model it in AutoCAD.
                      SIYAK KB                        •  Define a SAP WMS Structure for the proposed layout
                                                      •  Perform  the  AS–  IS  analysis  of  existing  Warehouse
                                                          Operation, to improve the Work procedure.

         ________________________________________     Project 2:

                                                       Cost Reduction of Secondary Transportation (WSP – WDs)
          GENERAL INFORMATION
                                                          Objective:
                  Batch: PGDIE 48
                                                      •  Study  the  Transportation  model,  Cost  structure  and
                                                          Constraints of the K3 Transportation.
                 BTech: NIT, Calicut
                                                      •  Design  a  robust,  Excel  based  model  to  Optimize  the
                Stream: Mechanical                        Transportation through efficient Clustering.
                                                      •  Conduct trial run and Customize the model as per the User
              Work Ex: Maruti Suzuki                      requirement
                                                      •  Analyze the Consignment history to derive the potential

                                                          cost saving scope of the Model


       ❖ How is a normal day at the Internship?

       During initial days, a typical day of my internship was mostly networking with the Stakeholders of my project to

       continuously monitor its progress and to ensure not to deviate from the right track.

       Also,  scheduling  of  all  the  work  that  I  have  to  perform  on  that  day  based  on  criticality  and  importance,

       preparation of one pager of all the work that I have done on that particular day, planning all the activities that
       I have to perform the next day.

       ❖ What are the challenges faced during Internship?

       Challenges:

          •  To identify and give priority to critical activities from the to do list.

          •  Taking approval from stakeholders to proceed.

          •  Timely availability of data to work on the project.
          •  Managing work force and supervisors who does not welcome new ideas.
