PROCESS INVOLVED IN OPTIMIZATION
Collaborating with other departments •Collaboration with other departments, such as production, and sales, can help promote best practices and support farmers.
• For example, closely working with the production teams can better forecast demand and optimize inventory levels.
•Investing in better testing equipment such as spectrophotometers and microbiological testing equipment.
Improving quality testing methods •Implementing a quality control plan that helps to ensure all products meet the required quality standards.
•Finally, it is important to track and analyze quality data, using insights to identify areas.
Optimizing processes using digital tools and •Digital tools and ERP’s can help optimize the procurement process in several ways.
•For example, digital tools can help automated procurement activities, such as details of farmer/supplier, volume of milk. Capturing of data, and calculating of accounts of individuals.
ERP’s
Increasing Efficiency •To increase efficiency, it is important to strem line the procurement process. This can be done by digitalizing the entire procurement process , from capturing of data to invoice processing.
•A digital procurement process can help eliminate manual errors, reduce paper works, and speed up the overall process.

PROCESS OF TRACKING OF KPI’S
• The first step is to identify the KPIs that are most relevant to your milk
procurement process.
Identify relevant KPIs • These may include metrics such as milk volume, milk quality, supplier
performance, transportation efficiency, and payment terms.
• Once you have identified the KPIs, you need to establish benchmarks or
targets for each KPI.
Establish benchmarks • These benchmarks should be based on historical data, industry
standards, and organizational goals.
• The next step is to collect data on each KPI. This may involve collecting
Collect data
data from various sources such as supplier invoices, transportation logs,
And analyze milk quality test reports, and performance reports.
• The final step is to use the data and insights gained from tracking KPIs
to drive continuous improvement and regular reporting in the milk
procurement process..
• This may involve creating regular reports and continuous improvement
of dashboards that highlight performance against targets.
STRATEGIES :- FARMER ENGAGEMENT AND
PROMOTION.
•Social Media:-
• For Example creating a whatsapp group of dairy farmers and providing solutions for
maintenance of buffalos, calves, and Cows by providing experts.
•Direct Meeting:-
• Conducting direct meetings with the dairy farmers/suppliers especially during village
vocational festivals and village meetings.
•Providing referral activities via existing farmers by providing schemes and freebies:-
• For example providing additional prices to the dairy farmers on referral of new farmer and
giving additional 10 to 15 % more on quality or volume of milk.
•Providing additional training in the name of organization on maintenance of animal husbandry.
• Providing better prices over the competitors and providing better operational activities.

CONCLUSION
By following the above plan, it is expected to start the successful procurement
of milk from various locations.
The SOP created for 100 days, here it is concluded that involving of various
goals & objectives which helps in creating a optimized operational and
procurement activities.
The SOP’s include from the first step of identification to implementation of
announced plans.
This in results creates optimized opportunities to the dairy farmers and the
organization in cost cutting during operation and procurement activities.
Establishing of VLC’s and BMC’s in the new location with chilling centres and
pasteurization, so that if there are any risks involved via transportation can be
minimized.
Regular vehicles are to be maintained from VLC’s and other collection centres,
so that the delay of milk reaching to processing centres is avoided.
