They usually use pick up to deliver their products.

Some report about vehicles movements, amount of products carried per day, maps illustrates how Linde Bangladesh is utilizing their distribution resources. The focused area of this report is Khulna, so I tried to discuss about the current scenario of the distribution process of Khulna territory as well as the areas of problems which is facing by them. Order placement plays a vital role in distribution process. Therefore the functions of iConnect have been portrayed to get an idea about the role played by iConnect in order placement process of the company.

Moreover, as Linde Bangladesh deals with environment sensitive and dangerous element, it tries to ensure the safety measures also. The Company maintains a standard for their vehicles as well as their drivers for ensuring the safety issues. Linde Bangladesh uses some software and electronic devices for making its vehicles safer. For ensuring the optimization of vehicle in the distribution process, the company keeps trip list report summarizes all the trips for a specific asset over a specified period of time. The report shows start and stop times and location, including total travelling time, distance, and quantity of products distributes.

In spite of having a strong distribution network, some areas have been found that needs to be improved. Finally, in recommendation part, some suggestions such as dividing routes, employing higher capacity vehicle, optimizing delivery schedule are given to capture the maximum utility from the market in future.

History of Linde Bangladesh Limited

Linde Bangladesh Limited (formerly known as BOC Bangladesh) is both an old and relatively a new company. Old because it has been present in what it is now in Bangladesh, in one form or the other, since the days of British India. New because it was registered under its own identity only in 1973. The Company began, after the independence of Bangladesh, with a modest turnover of over Tk. 6 million. The turnover in 1999 exceeded Taka 1 billion. Linde Bangladesh Limited started out as Bangladesh Oxygen Limited with 3 small Oxygen plants and Dissolved Acetylene plants, one of each in Dhaka, Chittagong and Khu1na.

In addition, it had an operating contract to run the Oxygen plants of Chittagong Steel Mills (CSM), which is no more there today. For the manufacture of Welding Electrodes the Company had three extruders and new one would commence operation from 2012. From inception, the Company had remained the sole supplier of Medical Oxygen in the Country. In the mid 70’s a Nitrous Oxide plant, still the only one in Bangladesh, was imported and installed in Dhaka to provide the nation with this vital anesthetic gas.

Later in the decade a Carbon Dioxide plant was bought and installed in Dhaka and this was the first in the Country to produce dry ice. In the early 80’s the first liquid gas plant was imported from New Zealand and again installed in Dhaka, where the demand for Oxygen was concentrated. Shortly after that came the first boom in ship cutting and demand for Oxygen “went through the roof”. The Company invested immediately in additional compressing capacity for the surplus Oxygen at CSM while simultaneously pursuing the Government to permit it to invest in new production capacity.

Eventually the Company was permitted to import 400 cubic meters per hour air separation plant from Australia, capable of producing Liquid Oxygen, Nitrogen and, for the first time in Bangladesh, Argon. This was installed in Chittagong, essentially to feed the ship breaking market on the beach. In the early 90’s booster was added to this to increase output, pending investment in further capacity. Meanwhile, the welding business of the Company was also growing fast and in the early 80’s a state of the art RAM extruder was added to the production line, dramatically improving output and quality of electrodes.

The Company, in another innovative move, invested in a wire drawing machine for the electrode factory. A second RAM was added in the late 80’s to keep up with demand. The Company went “public” in 1973 when the Government renounced its right shares in favor of the public. Today, Linde Bangladesh is one of the premier companies in the Country. Bangladesh Oxygen Limited changed its name to BOC Bangladesh Limited in March 1995 in line with a worldwide program of the BOC Group. The 90’s witnessed another change in the fortunes of the Company with deregulation and liberalization of the economy.

A site was specially purchased at Rupganj, near Dhaka, where the Company installed 30 tons per day air separation plant, the largest in the country. The US made plant produces Oxygen, Nitrogen and Argon and is technologically, as advanced as any in the world. It came on stream in 1995. At the same time, the Company also invested in a modern integrated welding electrode plant, made by the largest welding electrode manufacturers in the world, which was imported and installed at the new site in Rupganj.

A technical collaboration arrangement was also made with the suppliers ESABAB of Sweden and the plant went into production in 1995. Welding business received ISO 9002 certification in the following year. A distribution agreement has been signed with world class Welding Company, The Lincoln Company of USA. In March 1998 a second line of production was added to the integrated Welding Electrode Factory at Rupganj, doubling the capacity. Same year, in November 1998 a new site with a 20 TPD liquid plant was acquired in Shitalpur, Chittagong. 1. 1. 1. Merger Acquisition with Linde AG

The Linde Group has a history of over 130 years built on a heritage of innovation with a strong focus on technology. The company’s founder, Carl von Linde, invented refrigeration technology and pioneered a process of air separation. Today, the company is a global market leader in gases and engineering providing technology solutions for a wide range of industrial and other applications. In March 2006, Linde AG made an offer for The BOC group. It was recommended by the BOC Board and accepted by shareholders in August. This was ratified by the European Commission in June, and was completed on September, 5th 2006.

Following the acquisition the Linde group is one of the world’s leading industrial gases and engineering groups. Finally on 20 November, 2011 the BOC Bangladesh rebranded as Linde Bangladesh Limited. 1. 1. 2 Common History Linde and BOC unite to become The Linde Group. Both companies have more than 100 year of history and strong track records as innovators. In 1879, Gesellschaft fur Linde’s Eismaschinen AG in Wiesbaden was founded in Germany. In 1880 Arthur and Leon Brin take out the first of their patents on a process for separating oxygen (barium oxide process). Linde British

Refrigeration Co, in London in 1885,that was Linde’s first non-German company. In 1886, Brin’s Oxygen Company Ltd was founded. In 1895, patent to Carl von Linde for the “process of liquefying atmospheric air or other gases” was granting. Patent for air separation and the construction of the first air separator allowing oxygen purity of up to 97 percent, which was held in 1906. Linde and Brin’s Oxygen Co. agree to use Linde’s patents in 1906. However Linde becomes shareholder in Brin’s. Carl von Linde joins the board; Brin’s changes name to The British Oxygen Company Ltd.

Linde Air Products Co. was founded in 1907 in USA. In 1914, BOC started operating high purity gas plants in six major British cities. Lind took over of Guldner-Motoren-Gesellschaft (Diesel engines and tractors) in 1929. BOC bought controlling stake in African Oxygen (South Africa) in 1935 to become the leading gas company in Africa, which was known AFROX. In 1946, BOC opened research facility in New Jersey (USA). BOL Limited (Foundation of Linde-BOC joint venture) was founded in 1954 to coordinate the technical design and sales of air separation plants.

In 1959 Linde began volume production of hydraulic units and forklifts. The discovery of oil and gas under North Sea triggers in 1965, created a strong demand for large vessels, storage tanks and pipelines, boosting BOC sales. Linde-BOC joint venture in refrigeration solutions was founded in 1969. BOC doubled its size upon completing the acquisition of Airco in the USA in 1978. Linde constructed it s largest gas production plant at Leuna, Germany in 1990. In 1991, Linde expanded its gas business in Eastern Europe with the purchase of leading Czech Gas Company, Techno Lyn.

The distribution unit of BOC went to a partnership with Marks & Spencer in their 25th anniversary in 1994. Linde, BOC and partners joined hands in 2000 to construct world’s largest nitrogen plant to pump heavy crude oil under high pressure in the Cantarell Oil fields, Mexico – an innovative joint project involving Linde, BOC and partners. European Commission approved Linde takeover of Swedish Gas Company AGA/Statoil places order with Linde for Europe’s largest LNG plant (operational from 2007). In 2002 US engineering joint venture Linde-BOC-Process Plants LLC, Tulsa, Ohio was founded.

In 2004, Linde celebrates its 125th anniversary; Sale of Linde refrigeration business to Carrier Corporation. In 2005, Linde celebrated International Hydrogen Day. In 2006 Linde and BOC joined forces to become The Linde Group. 1. 2. About Linde Bangladesh Limited Linde Bangladesh Limited (the “company”) is a listed limited company by shares and was incorporated in Bangladesh in 1973 under the Companies Act 1913. The company became a listed entity in 1976. The company is listed both on Dhaka Stock Exchange (DSE) and Chittagong Stock Exchange (CSE).

The address of the registered office is 285 Tejgaon I/A, Dhaka-1208, Bangladesh. It has been a direct subsidiary of the BOC Group PLC of United Kingdom since inception. The entire share capital of the BOC Group PLC has been taken over by Linde AG of Germany in 2006 through an acquisition process. The group as a whole had embarked on a program called HPO (High Performance Organization). Though launched at a time of this crisis, like safety it would be an on- going program standing on its four pillars: Customer focus, People excellence, Process excellence and the Ability to execute.

The HPO initiative is a long term and strategic initiative aimed at improving the level of performance of our people and business, to increase our performance in all respects. Given the world economic crisis this initiative is expected to help the group meet the challenges ahead in unified and strong manner. 1. 2. 1.

Market Position Linde Bangladesh Limited has a good position in Bangladesh. All three sectors of products have good market shares. Linde Bangladesh Limited is in the first position for selling Gas and Welding products. The healthcare sector has to go a long way to grab a superior market position in Bangladesh. Linde Bangladesh Limited is technologically in a better condition than the other sister concerns in South Asia. 1. 2. 3. Safety Matters

Safety remained a number one priority as it is with the whole “The Linde Group”. Without being complacent one can add that has been an improvement in safety performance in most areas. With the launching of site safety program at Shitalpur all the major sides have now been covered. The incident reporting system had been greatly improved through implementation of an online web based system called synergy hosted in the Linde global server. Safety related activities continued with regular meetings of the safety and sharing of lessons learned from global group incidents & SHEQ related issues.

Meetings related to behavioral safety called SDG (Safety Dialogue) are held in small groups in every location of the company’s activities on the first working day of each month. 1. 2. 4. Internal Control The control and risks elements related to the company were under constant review. Several audits were carried out including engineering audits. Addressing of the recommendation is an ongoing process with the help of the Business Management Council members. Audit committee meeting took place as per its charter. During the year all the company’s location were connected to SAP at the corporate office.

This provides on-line real time information, specially related to sales, inventory and accounts. This facility would be an effective tool for ensuring control and data integrity, besides providing timely management information. 1. 2. 5. Financial Results The company’s turnover improved by 10% at BDT 2,742,816,718 over the previous year’s turnover of BDT 2,498,583 this was driven mainly by volumetric growth of industrial Oxygen, MS Electrodes, Liquid CO2, Medical gases etc. substantial loss of earnings from LPG, Fire Suppression and Welding Training School had to be absorbed.

Profitability in the year reached a new peak. While turnover growth was 10% profit from operation grew by 44%. This was as a result of favorable raw material costs, better recovery of fixed costs with volume increase of the key manufactured products and overall control on costs. 1. 2. 6.

Central sterilizing and supply department (CSSD) Part-2 Chapter – 2 Introduction to the Study 2. 0. Introduction to the Study 2. 1. Rationale of the Study:

As a business graduate we gain plenty of theoretical knowledge. That is why we look forward to utilize our knowledge in the relevant field and now it’s the time to use this theoretical knowledge practically. But it’s true that it is likely to have some difference in theory and practice. Although by using the theoretical knowledge we are able to understand the pre-practical field, which help us to cope up the situation. Distribution is an important component of marketing; however Linde Bangladesh’s main advantage in welding business is its wide distribution network that allows it to send its products to all concerns of the market as well as its good will.

Therefore being an intern of the marketing department of Linde Bangladesh Ltd; I decided to work with the distribution channel of the welding business of Linde Bangladesh Ltd. As a marketing major student this study gave me the opportunity to enrich the theoretical and practical knowledge having acquaintances with the practice. Additionally, this experience will further strengthen my marketing skills as well . Which ultimately will help a lot in my career in the forthcoming days. However this study can contribute a lot to the faculty of business administration and the university as a whole because to get the practical experience to develop the future career following students will be very encouraged to take such project. 2. 2.

Statements of the Problems ? Optimization of distribution vehicles keeping safety at the top. ?
