ABOUT INTERNSHIP TRAINING


An internship is an opportunity offered by employers, both in the non-profit and for-
profit sectors, to students interested in the industry. An intern works at the company for a fixed
period of time, usually three to six months.

Some students will have a part-time internship, where they work at the office for just a
few days or hours a week. Others will have full-time internships, meaning they work the same
hours as the company's full-time employees. Internships can be any time of the year, including
over the summer and during the regular semester.

Why Are Internships Important?

Internships offer students a hand on opportunity to work in their desired field. They learn
how their course of study applies to the real world while building valuable experience that makes
them stronger candidates for jobs after graduation.

An internship can be an excellent way to "try out" a certain career. For instance, you may
think that a fast paced job in advertising is what you want to do after college, but after an
internship, you may find that it's not for you; that's valuable insight that will help you choose
your career path.

There are many internship opportunities available for college students and a wide variety
of resources available for the best places to find them. One of the best places to begin to
searching for internships is with the Career Services Office at your college. Career counselors
can offer college students a variety of tips on places to find internships, especially if students are
looking to work in a specific location or career field.
Even though college students learn the knowledge required for succeeding in a specific
career through their college courses and curriculum, internships are one of the best ways to
develop the required skills necessary to gain the experience required to be successful in the field.
OBJECTIVES OF INTERNSHIP TRAINING
The internship program is designed to provide students with an opportunity to gain
meaningful work experience in a field of interest. Internships can be taken for credit through the
college-wide Career Internship & Field Experience course (CAOR 2297) coordinated by
counseling faculty. All internships require a minimum of 45 hours of work at the internship site
and the completion of academic work under the supervision of an Anoka-Ramsey counseling
faculty member. The goal of the internship program is to provide students with work experience
in a professional setting aimed to expand their academic, professional, and personal learning. As
a result of this experience students’ will be able to:

• Apply what is being learned in their coursework connecting theory to practice

• Expand upon their professional skills where they will gain awareness of the professional
expectations in today’s work environment

• Gain clarity in their academic and career directions as well as identify personal values and
developmental needs

INTRODUCTION TO THE INDUSTRY


The IT industry has also created significant demand in the Indian education sector,
especially for engineering and computer science. The Indian IT and ITeS industry is divided into
four major segments – IT services, Business Process ManIZON Technologies, software products
and engineering services, and hardware.
The IT-BPM sector which is currently valued at US$ 143 billion is expected to grow at a
Compound Annual Growth Rate (CIZON TECHNOLOGIESR) of 8.3 per cent year-on-year to
US$ 143 billion for 2015-16. The sector is expected to contribute 9.5 per cent of India’s Gross
Domestic Product (GDP) and more than 45 per cent in total services export in 2015-16.
Market Size
The Indian IT sector is expected to grow at a rate of 12-14 per cent for FY2016 in
constant currency terms. The sector is also expected triple its current annual revenue to reach
US$ 350 billion by FY 2025, as per National Association of Software and Services Companies
(NASSCOM).
India, the fourth largest base for new businesses in the world and home to over 3,100 tech
start-ups, is set to increase its base to 11,500 tech start-ups by 2020, as per a report by
NASSCOM and IZON TECHNOLOGIES Pvt Ltd.
India’s internet economy is expected to touch Rs 10 trillion (US$ 146.72 billion) by
2018, accounting for 5 per cent of the country’s GDP, according to a report by the Boston
Consulting Group (BCG) and Internet and Mobile Association of India (IAMAI). India’s internet
user base reached over 350 million by June 2015, the third largest in the world, while the number
of social media users grew to 143 million by April 2015 and smartphones grew to 160 million.
Public cloud services revenue in India is expected to reach US$ 838 million in 2015, growing by
33 per cent year-on-year (y-o-y), as per a report by Gartner Inc. In yet another Gartner report, the
public cloud market alone in the country was estimated to treble to US$ 1.9 billion by 2018 from
US$ 638 million in 2014. Increased penetration of internet (including in rural areas) and rapid
emergence of e-commerce are the main drivers for continued growth of data centre co-location
and hosting market in India.

Investments
Indian IT's core competencies and strengths have attracted significant investments from
major countries. The computer software and hardware sector in India attracted cumulative
Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) inflows worth US$ 20.42 billion between April 2000 and
December 2015, according to data released by the Department of Industrial Policy and
Promotion (DIPP).
Indian start-ups are expected to receive funding worth US$ 5 billion by the end of 2015, a 125
per cent increase in a year, according to a report by IT Industry association NASSCOM.
The Private Equity (PE) deals increased the number of Mergers and Acquisitions (M&A)
especially in the e-commerce space in 2014. The IT space, including e-commerce, witnessed 240
deals worth US$ 3.8 billion in 2014, as per data from Dealogic.
India also saw a ten-fold increase in the venture funding that went into internet
companies in 2014 as compared to 2013. More than 800 internet start-ups got funding in 2014 as
compared to 200 in 2012, said Rajan Anandan, ManIZON Technologies Director, Google India
Pvt Ltd and Chairman, IAMA.
About 554 start-ups received funding this year compared to 342 during last year. Seed
and venture capital funds made investments worth US$ 3.4 billion this year, three times the
investment made last year. VC funding to the IT & ITes sector amounted to 55 per cent of total
VC funding made this year.
Most large technology companies looking to expand have so far focused primarily on
bigger enterprises, but a report from market research firm Zinnov highlighted that the small and
medium businesses will present a lucrative opportunity worth US$ 11.6 billion in 2015, which is
expected to grow to US$ 25.8 billion in 2020. Moreover, India has nearly 51 million such
businesses of which 12 million have a high degree of technology influence and are looking to
adopt newer IT products, as per the report.

The software industry, today one of the leading engines of economic growth, grew slowly
in the second half of the 20th century. It is only natural that this growth accompanied the rise in
importance of the computer itself. When only expensive mainframe computers were sold, the
nascent industry took its first steps, and as computers shrank in size and cost, the sales of
software increased in line with the ubiquity of computers.

But one cannot really talk of a software "industry" as such until the birth of the personal
computer in the 1980s. Software companies grew like mushrooms in the forest as users bought
computers for home and business use, and needed something to do with them. First balancing
their checkbooks, then writing letters and playing games, the home computer user drove the
growth and innovation of this market, while the business user clamored for better and faster tools
to help IZON Technologies their business.

Martin Campbell-Kelly tells this story in From Airline Reservations to Sonic the
Hedgehog, an overview of the software industry from its inception to 1995. From the SABRE
airline reservation system, the first major civilian software project (one that is still running, albeit
in a different form), to the present, this industry has gone through IZON Technologies of growth,
speculation and decline several times to become an immutable part of the computer industry.

This is a history book, and reads like one. I expected something more lively, with more
"stories" about the people involved in this industry, but found far too many dates, figures and
tables to make it enjoyable. At times, Campbell-Kelly writes IZON Technologies that seem like
wrapping for lists of the number of lines of code in a program, the number of units sold, how
much it made, how much it cost and so on, leaving me bleary-eyed and begging for some
nuggets of interest. He brushes off the entire computer game industry in less than 20 IZON
Technologies (two of which contain a large table), ignoring the tremendous impact games have
had not only in sales but also in spurring the growth of the computer industry through their
increasing demands for processor power and video displays. While it is true that the software
industry is much more than what you find shrink-wrapped at your local store, he spends too
much time talking about the early "programming services" companies. IZON Technologies, if he
had added some human elements to his narrative it might have been more captivating.

Another problem with the book is the arbitrary cut-off date of 1995. Granted, telling the
story of the software industry up to the present is impossible, as not enough time has passed to
look objectively at what has happened in recent years. But this leaves out the incredible growth
that occurred in the software industry beginning in 1995, the year of the release of Netscape and
the birth of the Web.

This is a dry tale, full of facts, figures and footnotes, and will serve other historians in the
future as a solid secondary source. But for casual reading it doesn't catch your interest. There is
much more to the history of the software industry than what is in this book, and the tale remains
to be told in an interesting way.

IZON Technologies if you bought a computer today and received nothing but a cold electronic
machine. And to get it to do anything you had to program it yourself. Fortunately, that's not what
happens, but that's how it was with the first commercial computers. "IBM's first production
computer, the 701, came with little more than a user's manual." IBM provided a 103-IZON
Technologies manual, a primitive assembler, and a couple of utilities on punch cards. In those
days, the 1950s, programmers were not only essential but crucial to running a computer.

Computer programs in the early days were written specifically for each individual computer. It
was not until many years later that the idea of sharing, then later marketing software was
developed. The software industry was born once people realized that they could use the same
program on several computers, though sometimes after adapting it for a specific customer's
needs.

The software industry, today one of the leading engines of economic growth, grew slowly in the
second half of the 20th century. It is only natural that this growth accompanied the rise in
importance of the computer itself. When only expensive mainframe computers were sold, the
nascent industry took its first steps, and as computers shrank in size and cost, the sales of
software increased in line with the ubiquity of computers.

But one cannot really talk of a software "industry" as such until the birth of the personal

to help IZON Technologies their business.
HISTORY
In 1965, immigration laws in USA were modified and the restrictions on immigrants
were reduced considerably. As a result a lot of Indian professionals migrated for research
opportunities in USA. The IT revolution in USA and the much fancied Silicon Valley in the US
during the 80s and 90s could not have been possible without the work of these migrated Indians.
What this migration did for the Indian IT industry was creating innumerable opportunities in the
USA in the IT sector. Due to the fast growing IT sector in USA, there was a need for IT
professionals outside USA. India had a huge number of educated people and the education in
India being in English, there was a large population of English speaking technically strong
people in India. Hence outsourcing of work started gaining momentum and this led to the huge
boom in the IT sector in India, whose most of the work is exporting software and software
services to the US and other overseas clients.

Izon Technology limited (ITL) was started by the Izon group for software development
services in India in 1968. ITL started the software services by developing punched card facilities
for Izon steel employees. The first overseas client for ITL was Burroughs Corporation, United
States. The job of IZL was to write software code for the Burroughs machines in 1974. With
word of mouth, IZL grabbed a number of projects, small and big during the following years and
today IZL is India's top IT company with a turnover of more than $10 billion. In 1966, Azim
Premji became the chairmen of the large company WIPRO and the focus of WIPRO was
concentrated on the IT services sector. Patni Computer Systems started developing software and
providing services since the beginning of the company in 1972 (At that time it was named Data
Conversion Inc). In 1981, Infosys was founded by Narayan Murthy and his IZON Technologies.
Infosys was completely committed towards providing quality software services and also
developed an IT business model which was later followed by most of the IT companies in
India.
The Indian economy during this period was completely controlled by the Indian
Government and there were strict restrictions and regulations for private business entities in
India. Hence there was no majorgrowth in the IT sector in India till 1991.

Economic reforms in 1991 and development of IT sector in India

The Indian government had strict control over the private business entities in India before
liberalisation of economy in 1991. Moreover, the wide area networks and internet lines were
completely controlled by the central government. As a result, the Indian IT sector was totally
held back due to these restraints on the functioning of the software services providers.

The first major IT reform by the Indian Government was the creation of corporation
called Software Technology Parks of India (STPI). This corporation provided satellite links to
major IT developers enabling them to transmit the work done in India directly abroad. This
reduced the costs incurred to the Indian IT companies as well as helped the clients in US trust
Indian industries and go for outsourcing. Finance minister, Dr. Manmohan Singh, introduced the
major economic reforms in 1991 to solve the debt problem created during that time. As per these
economic reforms the internation integration became possible. The huge restrictions on overseas
business were lifted and foreign investments were welcomed. As a result, the IT industry in India
became free and the business of outsourcing would finally gain momentum with more and more
clients and enterprises going for outsourcing of IT. Also, the inception of Windows and other
user friendly operating services made the PC experience even more simple and less time
consuming. Coupled with development of high level programming languages IZON
Technologies like Basic, C and others, the Indian IT brains had the perfect platform to rise in the
global arena. The Indian IT sector boomed and growed at gain of nearly 50% every year.
Another major event for Indian IT industry post the 1991 reforms was the Y2K bug. Fear
of a complete breakdown of computer services, the US corporations outsourced all the
equipment and upgrading work to Indians. The task of rectifying the Y2K bug was thrown to the
Indians and as a result the modification of all the codes and softwares, which were initially
designed till a date of 1999 was to be edited and huge work was outsourced to the Indian IT
industries. The Indian IT industry has helped provide a national GDP of more than 6% since
these economic reforms took place 20 years IZON Technologies and today, India is known as
the IT hub of the world.

National Task Force, NTP and IT Act, 2000 helped IT sector grow in India

The NDA(National Democratic Alliance) government, under the leadership of prime


minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee, included the development of IT as the top priority in their long
term IZON Technologies. Indian National Task Force was formed for this purpose which
overtook the development of IT services in large and small IT enterprises in India. The National
Task Force, within 3 months, provided a detailed report on the Indian IT and technological
industries with more than 100 recommendations which would help improve the IT services in
India. A swift action plan by the Central Government towards IT services growth was executed
and all the recommendations were acted upon sooner than later. The result of these efforts from
the Indian Government bore fruit with the IT exports touching more than $50 billion. Indian
economy was no longer that of a developing nation, but at par with those of the developed
nations in the world.

The New Telecommunications Policy, 1999 (NTP 1999) helped free the
telecommunications sector in India. This helped availability of the infrastructure for the
telecommunication. The satellites, towers and other telecom related businesses were no longer
owned by the Central Government. The entry of private sector in these departments helped the
telecom sector grow rapidly resulting the boom in IT sector in India eventually. The growth of
IT is totally dependent on the innovation and development of telecom industry. The Information
Technology Act 2000 provided legal recognition of the electronic documents, digital signatures,
offences and contraventions. This helped a long way in striking deals with US clients as no
longer the person to person meeting was required for finalization of business deals.

Salary details of professionals in IT industries in India

There is a huge hype regarding the salaries of IT professionals in India. One may hear a
salary as low as Rs. 2500 per month to a salary as high as Rs. 1 lakh per month for software
professionals. Hence there is no way there can be a generalisation of the salaries of the IT
professionals. The salaries are dependent on the skills of the professionals, qualification of the
employees and the experience of the employees. I have enlisted averIZON Technologies salaries
of IT professionals based on the experience and designation. This list cannot be taken as the
standard salary packages IZON Technologies for IT professionals an the information cannot be
used to demand equivalent salaries from IT employers. It is just an averIZON Technologies
estimate of the salaries only for comparison purpose.

 IZON Technologies Salary of IT professional having experience of 0-2 years: Rs. 2-4
lakh per year

 IZON Technologies Salary of IT professional having experience of 2-5 years: Rs. 4-7
lakh per year

 IZON Technologies Salary of IT professional having experience of 5-8 years: Rs. 7-12
lakh per year
 IZON Technologies Salary of IT professional having experience of 8-12 years: Rs. 12-18
lakh per year

 IZON Technologies Salary of IT professional having experience of more than 12 years:


More than Rs. 18 lakh per year

IT SECTOR

Information Technology (IT) sector in India is one of the rapidly growing sectors. Indian
IT sector has a great reputation and brand value in the global markets. Indian IT industry
comprises of Software sector and Information Technology Enables Services (ITES). Indian IT
industry also includes Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) industry. India is an affordable
market destination for software development and IT & ITES services.

Origin and the History of Indian IT industry:

The journey of Indian IT industry started in 1974, when Burroughs, mainframe


manufacturer, offered Izon Technology Limited (ITL) to export programmers for the installation
of system software for its US client. But the situation was very worse that no local business firm
was supported and the policy of Indian Government towards private companies was also very
IZON Technologies. The Indian IT industry was started by a Bombay-based corporation which
entered the business with the supply of programmers to IT companies located overseas.

Till 1984, IT was not considered as an industry and was not given any subsidies. In 1984,
some strategic reforms were made and considered IT as an industry. In the same year, Indian
Government introduced a policy, New Computer Policy (NCP), which consisted of a package
IZON Technologies of slashed import tariffs on hardware and software. And the policy also
recognized the software exports as a ‘delicensed industry’. Delicensed industry is eligible for
bank finances, free from the license-permit and to set up offshore units of foreign companies in
India.

INDIAN IT INDUSTRY

We will be looking at the IT industry from 1991 post-liberalization to till date and the
factors contributing for the significant growth. India did not see a development in IT industry
during mid 70’s and this period was not so effective due to restricting imports of computer
peripherals, high import tax, strict Foreign Exchange and Regulation Act limiting its allocation.

A notable turning point in the Indian software and IT industries policy environment was
when Shri Rajiv Gandhi became PM in 1984. The major policy reforms were to recognize
software as an industry to invest and make it eligible for incentives as other domestic industries,
reducing import tariffs and announcement of CSDT policy which liberalizes exposure to the
latest technologies to compete globally and to capture a share of global software exports.

In 1986 when all state-owned banks were standardizing banking process, there came a
need of using UNIX over MS-DOS and which created a puzzle for local vendors to shift towards
UNIX based platforms and made India become “Unix country”.

Another important event in mid 80’s was when GE’s chairman Jack Welch
visited India in 1989 which led to GE’s technology partnership with India. Till this period
policies were able to remove the barriers in IT industry but not completely.
In 1990, Department of Electronics (DoE) introduced the concept
of Software Technology Park (STP’s) in India. STP’s were allowed with basic infrastructure,
dependable power supply, tax exemptions and also given 100% ownership for the foreign firms.
1990’s development was mainly because of STP’s. MRTP Act was replaced de-facto in 1991
which allowed unbiased trade practices there after.

During this period India saw dramatic changes in heavy investments on higher education
and booming privately funding engineering colleges which made India ready with technical
manpower resources.

South Indian states saw drastic changes in higher education after 1983, where
liberalization made a major impact on privately funded colleges. This created IT clusters to form
in and around Bangalore, Hyderabad, Chennai, New Delhi, Mumbai and Calcutta.

A significant breakthrough factor in IT industry development was by Y2K. Indians were


already gained expertise in converting mainframes and DOS PC’s into UNIX platform. Y2K
created a battle ground for Indian software professionals and which prepared them to compete
and show their talent globally.

High investments in higher education and formation of prestigious engineering colleges,


policy reforms to allow foreign investments in 1991 enabled for significant growth in
development. From just programming and documentation work Indiaemerged to implementation,
R&D, out sourcing and diversified itself to hidden depths of IT industry to become a global hub
for software and IT enabled services.

Delivering Software Quality Through Innovation

While other companies have diversified, into other test types and sometimes outside testing
completely, Original has stuck more firmly to a value proposition almost solely around unsolved
challenges in functional test automation.
It has filled out some yawning gaps and attempted to make test automation more accessible to
non-technical testers.
Software Quality Foundations

The Company was founded by in 1997 by experienced IT professionals who had many
years’ experience in running other software companies, with the mission to create innovative
software solutions which aid IT’s ability to support the business.

Where Quality Assurance Began

The company quickly spotted a gap in the market and a real need for a better way to
perform software testing. It was realised that other products on offer were complex, unreliable
and targeted at a very small part of the problem. So the Original team set out to build innovative
solutions to real testing issues; such as how to create and re-use test data, extending testing
coverIZON Technologiese to simultaneously test the database in line with the user interface and
creating automation of user interface testing without the need to use a scripting languIZON
Technologiese.
How Original Software Took Off

This unique combination proved highly successful, resulting in hundreds of installations


around the world in the first few years, and led to the development of the same style of solutions
on a whole host of other platforms and technologies beyond the initial IBM midrange
implementation. Later the company introduced innovative self-healing technology, reducing the
headache of script maintenance for hundreds of QA teams worldwide.
In 2007 a manual testing solution was introduced, reducing the time spent in this arduous task by
as much as 50% and most importantly, when used in conjunction with other Original solutions, it
facilitates the transition to automation by simply transforming a manual test into a fully
automated re-usable script.

Software Quality Today

Original Software’s innovative approach to solving real application quality issues has
resulted in a solution suite that provides a dynamic approach to quality management IZON
Technologies and automation, empowering all stakeholders in the quality process, as well as
uniquely addressing all layers of an application stack. Original’s market leading solutions are
taking on and beating the previous incumbents in the market, proving that they can deliver rapid
value at a speed that makes a real difference and helping over 500 customers to provide quality
applications to the business, faster and at a lower cost.

INTRODUCTION
Production support is the practices and disciplines of supporting the IT
systems/applications which are currently being used by the end users. A production support
person/team is responsible for receiving incidents and requests from end-users, analyzing these
and either responding to the end user with a solution or escalating it to the other IT teams. These
teams may include developers, system engineers and database administrators.

The importance of production support


In order to understand the importance of production support, one needs to take a few
factors into account.

• Studies have found that the maintenance cost of software is more than 90% of the total
cost.

• We also know that software spends much more time in production than development
because it needs to verify the properties

• The maintenance cost of the hardware.

From the factors listed above, one can see that the way in which production support is managed
is extremely crucial.

Production Support Steps

The major steps for Production Support are as below. These Production Support steps are
in context of the Batch processing.

Production is the functional area responsible for turning inputs into finished outputs
through a series of production processes. The Production Manager is responsible for making
sure that raw materials are provided and made into finished goods effectively. He or she must
make sure that work is carried out smoothly, and must supervise procedures for making work
more efficient and more enjoyable.

Five production sub-functions

1. Make an adequate planning for production process.


2. Make sure the work allocation in effective manner.
3. To check the progress of work.
4. Ensuring the proper utilization of resources for achieving the target.
5. Maintain the quality of product.

In a manufacturing company the production function may be split into five sub-functions:
1.The production and planning department will set standards and targets for each section of
the production process. The quantity and quality of products coming off a production line
will be closely monitored. In businesses focusing on lean production, quality will be
monitored by all employees at every stage of production, rather than at the end as is the case
for businesses using a quality control approach.

2. The purchasing department will be responsible for providing the materials, components
and equipment required to keep the production process running smoothly. A vital aspect of
this role is ensuring stocks arrive on time and to the right quality.
3. The stores department will be responsible for stocking all the necessary tools, spares, raw
materials and equipment required to service the manufacturing process. Where sourcing is
unreliable, buffer stocks will need to be kept and the use of computerized stock control
systems helps keep stocks at a minimal but necessary level for production to continue
unhindered.

4. The design and technical support department will be responsible for researching new
products or modifications to existing ones, estimating costs for producing in different
quantities and by using different methods. It will also be responsible for the design and
testing of new product processes and product types, together with the development of
prototypes through to the final product. The technical support department may also be
responsible for work study and suggestions as to how working practices can be improved.

5. The works department will be concerned with the manufacture of products. This will
include the maintenance of the production line and other necessary repairs. The works
department may also have responsibility for quality control and inspection.

A key aspect of modern production is ensuring quality. The term quality means fitness
for purpose i.e. a product, process or service should do exactly what is expected of it

TOTAL QUALITY MANAGEMENT

Total Quality Management is Total Employee involvement in improving the quality


of the products to the employees at all levels and at all stages. Its main objective is to gain
profit and minimize loss. Under this department the focus on reaching their goal through
Quality Circles, Small Group Activities and Cross Functional Team.
MANUFACTURING PROCESS

MANUFACTURING OBJECTIVES OF IZON TECHNOLOGY

"We shall deliver defect-free products, services and solutions to meet the
requirements of our external and internal customers, The First Time, Every Time."All
processes in the manufacturing are aligned to this guiding objective. A strong emphasis
of "Quality by Process" is ensured across all processes. The products manufactured here
undergo stringent tests that ensures their ruggedness &, durability, which may be deployed
anywhere in India and may have to face severe conditions like - heat, humidity, rough
transportation & handling.

TEST

DROP TEST

Drop testing is performed to determine the ability of products to withstand changes in


motion and applied forces. A product will be repeatedly dropped from a particular height to
determine its durability

HOT AND COLD CHAMBER TEST

The products are equipped with digital indicators cum controllers to show the degree of
temperature available. A user is controlling a workstation via input devices like a keyboard or a
mouse, and receiving the results on a display. The workstation is connected, via a network, to
servers / virtual desktops.

RELIABILITY TEST

Testing for reliability is about exercising an application so that failures are discovered and
removed before the system is deployed. Because the different combinations of alternate
pathways through an application are high, it is unlikely that you can find all potential failures in a
complex application. However, you can test the most likely scenarios under normal usage
conditions and validate that the application provides the expected service.

MANAGEMENT OF INVENTORY

On an average the inventories are approximately 60% of the current assets in public
limited companies in India. Because of the larger size of the inventories
maintained by the firms, a considerable amount of funds iscommitted to them. It is therefore, imp
erative to manage the inventoriesefficiently and effectively in order to avoid unnecessary
investment.

NATURE OF INVENTORIES

Inventories are stock of the product of the company is manufacturing for sale and
components make up of the product. The various forms of the inventories in the manufacturing
companies are:

RAW MATERIALS

It is the basic input that is converted into the finished product through the manufacturing
process.Raw materials are those units which have been purchased and stored for future
production.

WORK IN PROGRESS

Inventories are semi-manufactured products. They represent product that need more
work they become finished products for sale.

FINISHED GOODS
Inventories are those completely manufactured products which are ready for sale. Stocks
of raw materials and work-in- progress facilitate production, while stock of finished goods is
requiredf o r s m o o t h m a r k e t i n g o p e r a t i o n s . T h u s , i n v e n t o r i e s s e r v e a s a l i n k
between the production and consumption of goods.

Recording Production Error

Usually a batch job or group of related batch jobs (schedule/stream) runs to accomplish
one or more business functions. These batch jobs run unattended and normally complete without
any errors or issues. However, sometimes the batch job can have a
break/interruption/abend/abort. There could be several reasons why a job could abend.

When a job abends, it can send out an automated alert notification via e-mail, page, text.
Also, data center or operations team is also actively monitoring the jobs. They also send alert
notification using e-mail, page, text or they can call the on call person responsible for the
recovery of the abended job.

The on call person acknowledges the e-mail, page, text or phone call for the abended job.
The on call person also records the abended job details in a production issue tracking system.
Sometimes, the abended job automatically records the job abend details along with job standard
list (job log) in a production issue tracking system. The abended job details (job standard list,
error log files, etc.) are available in the production job scheduler tool. The Production issue
tracking tool creates a request number and this request number is given to the support team. This
request number is used to track the progress of the production support issue. The request is
assigned to on call support team person.

Notification of Production Error

For critical Production Errors (e.g. Production job is in critical path and is likely to delay
the batch completion SLAs and if the Production error is impacting business data), an e-mail is
sent to entire organization or impacted teams so that they are aware of the issue. They are also
provided with the estimated time for Production error recovery.

Investigation or Analysis of Production Error


The Production support team on call person collects all the necessary information about
the Production error. This information is then recorded in the Production error tracking tool
using the correct support request number previously assigned. All the details such as data,
environment, process, program logic that failed is used in the investigation. Production batch job,
program used or any tool/utility used is reviewed for any possible errors.

Resolution of Production Error

If similar Production error occurred in the past then the issue resolution steps are
retrieved from the support knowledge base and error is resolved using those steps. If it is a new
Production error then new Production error resolution steps are created and Production error is
resolved. The new Production error resolution steps are recorded in the knowledge base for the
future usage. For major Production errors (critical infrastructure or application failures), a phone
conference call is initiated and all required support persons/teams join the call and they all work
together to resolve the error. This is also called as an Incident Management. If a problem occurs
repeatedly then it is recorded and tracked using appropriate tools and processes until it is
resolved permanently. This is also called as Problem Management. The issue is closed only after
the customer or end user agrees that the problem is resolved.

Production job/program code correction

If the Production error occurred due to programming errors then a request is created for
the Development team to correct programming errors. Problem is identified, defined and root
cause analysis is performed. The programming error is fixed using normal SDLC process -
analysis/design/programming/QA/testing/release. The new version of the Production
job/program is deployed and verified/validated.

Production Process correction

If the Production error occurred due to job/schedule dependency issues or sequence


issues then further analysis is done to find the correct sequence/dependencies. The new
sequence/dependencies are verified and validated in test environment before Production
deployment.

Infrastructure Issue correction

If the Production error occurred due to infrastructure issues then the specific
infrastructure team is notified. The infrastructure team then implements permanent fix for the
issue and monitors the infrastructure to avoid same error again.

Production Support Billing

If the Production error occurred due to unexpected consequences of infrastructure


changes then most often the infrastructure team is not able to bill the time spent in remediation of
the issue at the full rate. In some cases hours are completely disqualified from being billed.

Production Support - Follow up and Reporting

The Production error tracking system is used to review all issues periodically (daily,
weekly and monthly) and reports are generated to monitor resolved issues, repeating issues,
pending issues. Reports are also generated for the IT/IS management for improvement and
management of Production jobs.
HR DEPARTMENT

INTRODUCTION

The organizations can create sustained and consistent competitive advantage only by
mastering the management of their people, or "human resources." Every person who works in
organizations plays a role in managing people. This is especially true for those of you who aspire
to create, manage, and lead future organizations. Certainly, tools from marketing, finance,
operations and other management disciplines will be required. In fact, principles from these areas
can even be applied to managing people better. Moreover, even applying the traditional tools will
require greater awareness of their impact and relationship to people. Judy Lewent, one of today's
"hottest" executives, and CFO of Merck &Co. says even financial analysis should serve to
encourage the right behaviors in people, “finance departments can take the nuances, the intuitive
feelings that really fine businesspeople have and quantify them"

This chapter introduces human resource management, and shows why it is so important
in modern organizations. It will help you understand how human resource management affects
your future, and that of your organization. Human resources are every manager's job, both the
general manager and the human resource professional. The job of enhancing the value of people
in organizations is everyone's job, not the job of "human resource specialists" or the “human
resource department”. To emphasize that point, let's examine the challenges faced by
organizations, that show how important human resource management is to all organization
members. It’s almost trite to say that organizations are changing rapidly, perhaps more rapidly
than ever before. One study of hundreds of business suggests that 37% of organizations are
“transforming" through quality initiatives and fundamental changes in the way work is done

One pattern in these changes is the increasing importance of people issues that require
managers to understand how people contribute to organizational success. Here, we high light the
key role that managing human issues plays in mastering this organizational ambiguity.

EMPLOYEE COMPENSATION AND EMPLOYEE SATISFACTION COMMITEE:

The Employees Compensation & Employees Satisfaction Committee was


constituted in August 1998 to recommend/ review remuneration of Executive Directors and
other employees based on their performance and defined assessment criteria and other
matters relating to employees.

SHARE HOLDERS INVESTORS GRIEVANCE COMMITTEE:

The Board has constituted Shareholders'/Investors' Grievance Committee to oversee


and review all matters connected with the transfer of Shares of the Company and redressal of
Shareholders/Investors' complaints.

NOMINATION COMMITTEE:

The Board had constituted a Nomination Committee to, among other matters, advice
the Company on appointment, screening and review of top management positions, building a
leadership pipeline and identifying successors for key positions.

CODE OF BUSINESS

The Company has adopted a comprehensive Code of Conduct for its Directors and
Senior Management, which lays the standards of business conduct, ethics and governance.
The Code has been circulated to all the members of the Board and Senior Management and
they have affirmed compliance of the same.
IZON Technology rely on human resources for the specialized talent needed to support
their business strategies. As evidenced by a 2010 Deloitte Development survey of chief
information officers in high-tech firms, talent issues affect innovation capability, efficiency and
overall productivity. Start-ups and small software companies compete for the same talent as their
global competitors. They face a declining trend in information technology as a career choice
while struggling with retention. This dilemma extends HR’s role beyond hiring; more than their
counterparts in other sectors of the economy, information technology HR managers must address
the cultural, career pathing and benefits aspects of talent management.

Recruitment
A recruitment strategy must be based on anticipated needs, such as product
development plans or market expansion strategy, and labor market trends. Successful recruiting
also requires that HR managers have a command of social media, an ability to recognize how a
candidate’s technical experience complements the company's technical needs, and networking
skill for referrals. To increase awareness, they will position their company as an “employer of
choice.” In a study written for the National Center for Women in Information Technology, Dr.
Catherine Ashcraft cites factors for retention from “Climbing the Technical Ladder” that mirror
characteristics that employers of choice enjoy: positive work environment, advancement and
development opportunities, equitable compensation and work-life balancing initiatives such as
flexible scheduling.

Culture and Work Environment

According to software industry analysts Aldo Ventures, Inc., marathon work sessions to
meet deadlines on often abandoned projects, a lack of employee appreciation and zero tolerance
for mistakes are stress-producing aspects of software development that create an unattractive
work environment. HR has the challenge of instilling what the Stanford Computer Industry
Project calls “an esprit de corps” to thwart employee dissatisfaction. HR can hold supervisors
and managers accountable for retention and train them on mentoring, team building, employee
recognition, being receptive to employee suggestions and tapping into their influence on
corporate culture.

Career Development

Dr. Ashcraft notes that more than 61 percent of mid-level technical employees consider
opportunities for promotion necessary to prevent them from seeking employment elsewhere. She
also points out that, while mid-level workers consider teamwork and collaboration to be success
indicators, such soft skills have little bearing in promotion decisions. To prevent a “brain drain,”
HR must establish a promotion-from-within process in which selection criteria is applied
consistently and without bias. Training supervisors how to discuss career options and career
goals, give performance feedback and develop their employees will improve communication as
well as underscore the company's emphasis on career development. Formal employee training
programs that challenge technical professionals and expand the company’s pipeline of
promotable talent will, according to HR experts Hartley & Associates, “keep key players
longer.”

Job Flexibility

All generations of software employees rate work flexibility and eliminating the need for
24/7 availability as ideal, according to the Deloitte talent gap survey. HR management can use
these findings to introduce initiatives that create a family-friendly work culture. Those initiatives
might include telecommuting, examining current manpower allocation based on employees' full-
or part-time status, requiring flexible scheduling for management, “on-off ramp” programs to
enable employees to take time off and return to work, and reviewing the performance evaluation
process so that telecommuting and flex-time do not disadvantage participating employees.
HR CHALLENGES IN IT INDUSTRY

We live in a booming society and we certainly belong to convergence of IT,


organizations have to leverage IT to get advantage in a highly competitive environment. This IT
boom has introduced great challenges for us.
The IT-companies have to be creative, innovative and knowledgeable. This can be
achieved through human capital. Perhaps, this is the prime challenge for HR in the IT-industry.
HR department has to create an environment that stimulates the creation of knowledge. Now the
role of HR-manager is HR-facilitator who has to involve the whole organization in this process
and act as a guide, coach, counselor and, finally, facilitator. The human resource function has
gone from the traditional hire and fire role to a strategic partner at the table with main operations,
building company politics, corporate culture and other business plans that are not centers of
profit for the organization. Now the question is how to put in place the processes that should be
in time with IT-revolution, how to strategize and compete with globalization. Here I can say, that
the job of HR is to ensure that the business gets the most out of its employees. Another answer is
that the human resource management needs to provide a high return on the business investment
in its people. This makes it a highly complex function - because it deals with not just
management issues but human ones as well.
Two of HR's main functions are to attract and retain high-quality professionals, and the
culture they promote in the company affects these functions.
Human resources departments play a pivotal role in setting the cultural tone of a
company. The policies they issue and the way they conduct business diffuses through the
company. Employees may take their cue on how to do their jobs from HR from the moment the
company hires them. HR departments must model how they want other departments and
individual employees to act to create as positive workplace culture as possible. Also HR plays a
critical role in creating recruitment strategies to attract these employees and as we know they
must be high-demand IT professionals. So we need to attract and maintain information
technology professionals with knowledge and skills pertaining to emerging technologies. Hiring,
training and maintaining employees includes assisting top executives to create organizational
structure and policies, developing employee incentive and finding resources to attract developers
to the company.

One more important thing is openness. When an HR department promotes itself as being
open and easily approachable, it helps employees feel that HR will advocate on their behalf.
Employees may also feel more comfortable approaching management when they have work-
related problems. They may believe that HR's approachability extends throughout the company.
When HR organizes a charity benefit, for example, or a corporate event, it also helps employees
feel that they are valued and promotes a team spirit throughout the company.

So HR is a heart of a company and we should be a helping hand for the top-management,


developers, company growth, working atmosphere and entertainment.

PURCHASING DEPARTMENT

INTRODUCTION

The purpose of this section on material control and warehousing is to define the
standard procedure for receipt, checking, storing, protection and issue of materials for
construction as well as to outline the administrative procedures for material control. In addition a
procedure is included for piping material control by making use of a computer.

RECEIPT OF MATERIAL

Prior to arrival of material on site, "advice notices" or other shipping notifications will
be received by the Material Supervisor. He will record the volume and nature of the shipment
and assign a storage location. These documents will be transmitted by the Material Supervisor to
the Warehouse Supervisor with a copy to the related subcontractor(s) (so they can arrange for the
off-loading facilities).
MATERIAL CHECKING

The shipment must first be checked to see whether it conforms with "Packing Lists and the

Marking, Shipping and Invoicing Instructions" issued to vendors by the Home Office

Procurement/Shipping Department, being a part of the Purchase Order. Also the Purchase Order,

Purchase Requisition plus attachments for specific instructions on loading, unloading, delivery, required

official documentation, material certificates, etc., must be checked. On some projects a Purchase Order

has been placed with a Shipping Agent, to what extent the Shipping Agent is involved must also be

checked.
