    EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

    The objective of this research activity was to ascertain the

    dynamics of services in the industry. This research is done to check

    the documentation management process of different organizations.

    For this purpose initially a comparative analysis of the total product

    line under the New Office Business was created, a segregation was

    done on the basis of standalone machines and Multifunctional

    devices, mono and colour printers and further segregating them as

    per the capabilities of printing in A3 & A4. In the second phase a

    total of 20 corporate accounts were surveyed which are a mixture

    of existing Xerox customers and some which do not use services

    provided by Xerox. The research that has been carried out was

    intended to understand the commercial and the process of

    documentation at different corporate accounts

    Area of Focus:

    1. Preference of vendors in regards to printing, scanning,

    photocopying & scanning.

    2. Inclination towards Multifunctional Devices & Standalonedevices.

    3. Policies in regards to colour printing and black & white printing.

  • 8/7/2019 onais report

    7/58

    Documentation Management Process of Different Organizations7

    4. Total number of machines in the organization.

    5. Preference on Quality, Price, Reliability & Maintenance.

    6. Basic pattern of printing.

    7. Media that is used for printing.

    8. Printer to Manpower ratio maintained in the organisation.

    9. The problems that they general face in network printer.

    The above are essential to fulfil the research objectives. They play a

    pivotal role in ascertaining the factors that are essential for judging the

    requirements of the customer.

    A questionnaire were circulated which comprised multiple choicequestions as well as open ended questions that were aimed at

    acquiring the above information.

    The questionnaire was aimed for the corporate IT Heads to find their

    role in the replacement of technology in the organization. The aim was

    also to find the printing processes, volume of prints and the problems

    they face with their network printers. Also through this set of

    questions, information about different vendors and competitors hasbeen collected.

    The data was collected in an excel sheet and analysis was done using

    bar graphs and pie charts.

    The key findings were as follows:

    Xerox India stands at the third position at present in regards to

    the market share in the corporate accounts.

  • 8/7/2019 onais report

    Documentation Management Process of Different Organizations8

    The inclination towards Black & White prints is still higher as

    compared to colour, many organisations have standardised

    printing and thus some use only Mono.

    The preference on Multifunction devices has increased

    substantially as they have realised it is more convenient and

    cost effective to maintain one device having multiple functions

    rather that have separate devices for different functions. It has

    also been observed that a great amount of emphasis is given by

    organisations on the technological aspect in regards to the value

    addition that the equipment will bring along with it and how good

    would the new equipment integrated in the existing system.

    With the help of the research it could be gauged the coverage of

    Xerox on different verticals being the highest in the service

    industry and the lowest in the infrastructure industry.

    Different organisations embark on different services preferences,

    thus with the help of the research we were able to find the

    preference on different services that companies prefer covering

    from the manufacturing to the service industry.

    It is very important to know what volumes of colour and Black &

    white are printed in the organisation to ascertain the

    requirement, thus with the help of the questioner we could find

    out the volume and the preference in media between A3 and A4.

    For placing a machine it is important to know how many people

    would be using the equipment, the questioner also checked for

    these issues and thus collectively helped us in mapping the

    documentation processes in the organisation.

    With the research we were able to find the key problems

    associated with the network printers in the organisation.

    It is important to maintain a high level of security in

    organisations in the documentation process, thus we also tried to

    get information on the level of security that was implement in

    the organisation.

    The research also looked in to aspect of expenses occurred by

    different organisations in regards to printing, scanning ,copying

    and Fax

    INTRODUCTION

    Xerox Corporation is a $15.7 billion technology and services enterprise

    that helps businesses deploy smart document management strategies

    and find better ways to work. Its intent is to constantly lead with

    innovative technologies, products, and solutions that customers can

    depend upon to improve business results.

    Xerox is a supplier of photocopiers, printers, and other document

    systems. It also offers document management services and

    customized solutions. The company has operations in Europe, Africa,

    the Middle East, India and parts of Asia. The company has a workforce

    of about 53,700 employees and is headquartered in Stamford,

    Connecticut. It is headed by Ms Anne M. Mulcahy.

    HISTORY OF XEROX:

    Chester Carlson, a patent attorney and part-time inventor, made the

    first xerographic image in his makeshift laboratory in Astoria, Queens,

    in New York City, on Oct. 22, 1938.

    Originally named Haloid and beginning as a manufacturer of

    photographic paper and equipment, the company came to prominence

    in 1959 with the introduction of the first one-piece, plain paper

    photocopier using the process of xerography (electro photography),

  • 8/7/2019 onais report

    11/58

    Documentation Management Process of Different Organizations11

    the Xerox 914.Three years later, The Haloid Company, a maker of

    photographic paper in Rochester, N.Y., approached Battelle and

    obtained a license to develop and market a copying machine based on

    Carlson's technology.

    Haloid coined the word "Xerox" for the new copiers, and in 1948, the

    word Xerox was trademarked. Inspired by the early, modest success of

    its Xerox copiers, Haloid changed its name in 1958 to Haloid Xerox Inc.

    The company became Xerox Corporation in 1961.

    In 1962 Fuji Xerox Co. Ltd. was launched as a joint venture of Rank

    Xerox Limited and Fuji Photo Film Co. Ltd.

    BUSINESS OFFERINGS FROM XEROX:

    Xerox leads the way in digital imaging and what is called distributed

    electronic publishing. Xerox technology enables the home office to

    copy, print, scan, and fax documents using a single device; and far-

    flung enterprises to transmit complicated, multiage documents acrossnetworks for copying or printing, down the hall or halfway around the

    world. Digital products now represent more than a third of Xerox

    revenues. Xerox started the office copying revolution with the

    introduction of its 914 copier in 1959

    The company's strategic focus is on three primary markets :

    High-End Production and Commercial Print Environments,Networked Offices from Small to Large,

    Value-Added Services.

  • 8/7/2019 onais report

    12/58

    Documentation Management Process of Different Organizations12

    These products and services primarily originate from three main

    business operations which are focused on the production market,

    the office market, and the services market. These entities contribute to

    Xerox's mission and vision to give customers better ways to do great

    work. These business operations are:

    New Office Business (NOB) Deals with Networked

    Offices from Small to Large.

    Production Systems Group (PSG) Deals with High-End

    Production and Commercial Print Environments.

    Xerox Global Services (XGS) Deals with Value-Added

    Services.

    NEW OFFICE GROUP

    The New Office Group of Xerox caters to the requirements of large and

    mid-sized and small enterprises, providing them with laser printers,

    digital copiers, copiers-printers, advanced multifunction devices, colour

    copiers-printers and engineering copiers. These offerings are marketed

    through " Two-Tier " distribution model ( see exploratory research ).

    Xerox reaches out to its customers through its network of three

    national distributors (Ingram, essays and Redington) and two regional

    distributors (Micromax and Ansatta). The company has a network of 1500 channel partners that are supported by a team of qualified and

    trained indirect sales personnel.

    Xerox was involved in direct selling till about 2005 wherein it shifted to

    channel oriented sales. This project which deals with an analysis of the

    best service offered to customers in the industry is aimed at finding

    out the different factors that influence the processes and commercials

    involved while providing services

  • 8/7/2019 onais report

    14/58

    Documentation Management Process of Different Organizations14

    Scope of the Project

    This study analyzes the service offerings of the major hardcopy

    peripheral vendors. The hardcopy peripheral market continues to

    evolve; shifting from single-function devices to multifunction devices.

    The ultimate purpose of this project on comparing the service offerings

    of Xerox and its competitors is to increase the market share, and tocheck the requirements of different organizations.

    It is increasingly difficult for copier and printer vendors to compete on

    hardware specifications alone, especially in the office segments. As a

    result, these vendors are seeking opportunities to differentiate their

    product offerings from those of their competition, build customer

    loyalty, and attract new customers. This is achieved mainly by

    providing a better service to customers than the competitors. A good

    service will reduce costs, wastage, and complaints.

    Providing a good service helps in growing the business: customers stay

    longer; customer churn rates reduce; referrals to new customers

    increase from increasing numbers of satisfied customers and overall

    the organization's service flows and teams work more efficiently and

    more happily.

    Project Objective

    Primary Objective:

    To visit the corporate accounts and map the documentation

    process in the organization.

    Secondary objective:

    To check the solutions that are currently being used

    Gauge the volume of prints and the mode of prints used by them

    Checking the preference in regards to best quality or the lowest

    price. To check the preference on the grounds of Quality, Price,

    Operational Cost, Reliability, maintenance, Ease of Operation,

    Power Efficiency and Speed.

    Problems faced with different network printers.

    Level of security that is maintained in different organizations.

    To check if they have any expansion plans and future

    requirements

    17/58

    Documentation Management Process of Different Organizations17

    Studying the preference of different organizations in regards to

    different vendors and why.

    Methodology

    The first step involved was to get an overview of Xerox products and

    services. To facilitate this process a comprehensive comparative

    analysis of the total product line under New Office Business Group

    was done. This was done by going through the Xerox website and

    product broachers.

    After understanding the project, a blueprint of the project was created.

    The blueprint made had 4 parts in it: Service offering, Preference of

    brands, Inclination towards mono or colour and the volume printed.

    Some of the parameters chosen were: Response time, Maintenance

    contracts, standby machines, replacements, Follow-ups, prices offered,volume of prints etc. Process support and commercial support related

    to these deliverable offerings were tabulated which made

    understanding of the project simpler.

    After understanding the objectives of the project, a questionnaires (for

    the IT Heads and the procurement department) containing mostly

    close ended questions with multiple choices and a few open ended

    questions was made.

  • 8/7/2019 onais report

    18/58

    Documentation Management Process of Different Organizations18

    After the questionnaire was finalized, separate databases of the

    corporate accounts was made and appointments for the IT Heads and

    Procurement Heads was taken.

    A Survey research was carried out and 23 questionnaires were filled

    from 20 corporate accounts were done after taking appointments and

    for some, cold call technique was used.

    Data is collected through Interviews, Questions & observations.

    The data was collected in an excel sheet and was then analyzed to find

    out information which was essential to achieve the objectives.

    Analysis was done using pie charts and bar diagrams.

    After the analysis, suggestions and recommendations were made.

  • 8/7/2019 onais report

    19/58

    Documentation Management Process of Different Organizations19

    Analysis

    As can be seen in the questionnaire we circulated, multiple choice

    questions eliciting answers were put to our respondents and the

    findings for each are detailed as under:

    The analysis is divided in to 3 segments:

    Competitor service offering

    Process of documentation

    Preferences of different organizations

    Xerox customer satisfaction analysis.

    The analysis is done on basis of information collected from

    different Corporate Accounts of Xerox.

  • 8/7/2019 onais report

    20/58

    Documentation Management Process of Different Organizations20

    Share of Xerox in Corporate Accounts:

    As the different corporate accounts were analysed it was noticed that

    Xerox stands third in the share of those accounts. HP has the highest

    market share of 41%, with Toshiba holding 19% of the market. Cannon

    and Xerox share the third position holding nearly 14% each of the

    market.

  • 8/7/2019 onais report

    21/58

    Documentation Management Process of Different Organizations21

    Xerox is perceived as the strongest in regards to technology, market

    offering and even the superiority of products but the awareness was

    lowest.

    Xerox was the pioneer in the technology of photocopying and laser

    printers but still the awareness is found to be low. It was surprising to

    know that people still perceived Xerox just as a photocopier provider.

    There has been a sharp decline in the market share of the company

    because of service issues. The existing customers were satisfied with

    the product but there is a great deal of issues in regards to service and

    back hand support.

  • 8/7/2019 onais report

    22/58

    Documentation Management Process of Different Organizations22

    Segment Share:

    From the above bar graph we can see the market share of Xerox and

    its competators in the different segment of the industry. We can see

  • 8/7/2019 onais report

    23/58

    Documentation Management Process of Different Organizations23

    that HP holds a decent share in all the segments of the industry form

    Government Service industries, Private segment of the Service

    industry, Manufacturing & knowledge. It can be abserved that Xerox

    has a presence in the government sector and private service industry

    but its presence is negligable in the manufacturing and knowledge

    sector.

    Preference of Medium:

    The preference on the usage of either mono or colour depends in the

    policies and difference of requirements; some of the organizations

    have the procedure of standardization of resources provided to its

    employees but some still continue to use inkjet printers from the bar

    graph we can see the distribution between inkjet and laser.

  • 8/7/2019 onais report

    24/58

    Documentation Management Process of Different Organizations24

    It can be seen that the usage of inkjets in different organizations in

    case of standalone printers for colour priting is still higher.

    When the respondents were asked the reason for the usage of

    inkjet printers a common set of reasons were received:-

    1. Inexpensive to procure.

    2. Optimum for personal usage

    Stand Alone Vs Multifunction Devices:

    There has been a great shift in the preference of the customers, of the

    total number of corporate accounts surveyed 56% use multifunction

    devices, but still now 44% of the use standalone machines and prefer

    using different machines for different services. From the pie chart we

    could see the share of multifunction devices and stand alone

    machines.

  • 8/7/2019 onais report

    25/58

    Documentation Management Process of Different Organizations25

    Preference on Services:

    The questioner was also intended to know the preference of different

    organizations in the services and value addition that they looked

    forward to. The preference was divided in eight different segments:

    1. Quality

    2. Price

  • 8/7/2019 onais report

    26/58

    Documentation Management Process of Different Organizations26

    3. Operational Cost

    4. Reliability

    5. Maintenance

    6. Ease of Operation

    7. Power Efficiency

    8. Speed

    All the IT Heads of the different corporate accounts which were

    covered were asked the aspects that were more relevant to the

    working of their organization. The question was a close ended rating

    question where they had to rate the different aspects as per their

    preferences.

    A detailed analysis of the data received which can be seen from the

    bar graph below:-

  • 8/7/2019 onais report

    27/58

    Documentation Management Process of Different Organizations27

    The compiled data showed that when the machine is being procured

    the most important aspect that is looked into is the quality of prints

    that the machine is capable of, the second aspect was the cost that

    will occur in the procurment of the unit. Reliability being the third most

    important aspect as all the recipients did agree to the fact that at one

    time or the other the machine is bound to fail but, the frequency andthe reliability is very important. Price is the most important driving

    factor associated with the procurment of the unit, not just the initial

    cost but the cost of running as well. Though when this was broken up

    as per segment wise a further detailed analysis could be derived.

    Segmented Distribution of Preference:

    Government Service Industry:

  • 8/7/2019 onais report

    28/58

    Documentation Management Process of Different Organizations28

    The pattern of requirements when separately analysed showed a

    different picture all to gather, from the bar graph shown below it

    can be interpreted:-

    In the government sector reliability of the machine is the most

    important aspect, as the machines once procured are used for a

    greater period as compared to any other private sector, reliability

    thus is given high importance.

    The procidure of procurment in the government sector is longer and

    time consuming, Thus if the machine fails it takes a greater period

    to get a replaced due to the department wise operation system

    adopted by many organisations.

    Price being the driving factor as well but as most of the units are

    procured through Tenders so the L1 (lowest) bids are given

    preferences taking into consideration the reliability and quality

    aspects of the machine.

  • 8/7/2019 onais report

    29/58

    Documentation Management Process of Different Organizations29

    Service Industry:

    The private sector has a different set of requirement, form the

    analysis it can be seen that the important aspects that are looked

  • 8/7/2019 onais report

    30/58

  • 8/7/2019 onais report

    31/58

    Documentation Management Process of Different Organizations31

    getting the most out of the units bought. The calculation of

    Return on Investment is the highest in this sector.

    The two most importan aspets that are looked in are the the

    reliability and operational cost of the machine, unlike the service

    sector price and quality are not deciding factors. The machines

    have to be sturdy as the number of users per machine are the

    highest in this segment. The organizations do a detailed analysis

    of their requirement of different departments and thus while

    procuring reliability and operational cost are given the most

    importance.

    Knowledge:

    The three factors that are taken into consideration in the process

    of procurment are quality, price and reliability.

  • 8/7/2019 onais report

    Documentation Management Process of Different Organizations32

    Overview:

  • 8/7/2019 onais report

    33/58

    Documentation Management Process of Different Organizations33

    It was observed in all the sectors that there was not much

    emphasis was given on the ease of operations and the speed.

    Some of th reasons are:

    1. The superior the technology, the easier to operate.

    2. Machines are procured as per requirement thus

    saperately speed is not a factor to be considered.

    3. The higher capacity machines are made to be fast to

    cope up with the load.

    Level of Security:

  • 8/7/2019 onais report

    34/58

    Documentation Management Process of Different Organizations34

    To map the documentation process it was important to know the level

    of security that was mantained in the different documentation

    processes by the organizations, with the bar graph we can see the

    level of security that is mantained in the different sectors of the

    industry.

    After visiting different organizations it was analised that different

    organizations have their policies in place in reagrds to the level of

    security that is to be implemented in the organization, but unfortunatel

    the companies are still strugling to implement it. From the line graph

    we could understand the disparity in the industry in regards to the

    level of security mantained currently.

    expensive source of wastage for the organization as when analised 5%

    to 8% of the operational expenses are incured in managing the

    documentation processes of the organization.

    We could even see the share of different problems through the Pie

    chart

    Paper handling was also an issue that was the cause of the huge junk

    printing that occured in the organizations. These issues were very

    seriously looked into, the organizations were on the look for solutions

    that could help them in resolving with the wastage due to these

    reasons.

  • 8/7/2019 onais report

    38/58

    Documentation Management Process of Different Organizations38

    Awareness:

    The questionier was also designed with a question as to how people

    perceived Xerox, that also helped us to know the awareness of the

    company with its products catering to the small and medium size

    offices. The bar graph below represents the level of awareness that the

    company has :-

  • 8/7/2019 onais report

    39/58

    Documentation Management Process of Different Organizations39

    From the bar graph we could see that Xerox as a company had very

    good awareness but still 6.5% of the people who were surveyed

    perceived it just as a photocopier company and were procuring

    printers, multifunctional devices etc form other companies. Though a

    majority of the people were aware of the product line offered by the

    company but still there is a greater requirement to spread awareness

    of the services provided by the company for gaining a greater market

    share.

    Process of Procurement:

    New India Assurance: Usage & Purchase as per requirement, the

    process of procuring and the requirements are different as compared

    to other organizations. It is important to analyse the requirement of on

    the basis of job issued in that particular office rather than in respect to

    the increase in manpower, the technology is a driving factor as well,

    there is limited access to word and excel which is provided to users all

    across India, therefore security level is as high in the organization.

    Thus being a government organization comes with its share of pains

    and gain, the process of replacing products takes a long period thus

    there is greater emphasis on reliability and performance of the

    equipment.

    Capgemini: A standardization process is followed in the organization

    in regards to the products which are procured by the organization;

    Changes are looked as an option only if the other is able to provide agreater value addition, difference in price, greater reliability & support.

    Mahindra & Mahindra: Operational Cost & reliability are the major

    factors governing this sector, as in the case of Mahindra & Mahindra a

    tender is given out and the decision is taken in accordance to that.

    Air India: Being a booming service industry the back hand support is

    the back bone of the organization, Service and reliability is the most

    important features that they look before choosing any vendor. Call

    time per complain is very important. The preference of this

    organization is on a vendor providing competitive price and a greater

    reliability. Having 18 different departments with its own set of

    requirement boost up the total requirement of the organization and

    with the boost in the aviation sector it is estimated that there is

    greater requirement ahead.

    Union bank of India: The preference here shifts for preference of

    quality & reliability to the cost that goes in to the procurement of

    machine, As the process of procuring and then running the machine is

    in two different department the initial emphasis is on the initial cost

    that goes in to the procurement of machine.

    1. A centralise department procures the machine for the

    department as per the specifications laid down by them

    and hands over the machine to the concerned

    department.

    2. After receiving the machine it is the departments whopay for the running cost of the machine.

    Thus the initial emphasis is on comparing the initial price as quoted by

    different providers in the tender issued by them and choosing the L1

    tender.

    Reliance Consumer Finance: As compared to other organizations

    cost cutting and maximized utilization of resources is very important.

    has at a specific location. The questioner was also intended to know

    the expenses that organizations make towards printing in a month.

    Thus from all the information when compiled together we can come up

    with the expenses that are incurred on a per print basis.

    After deriving the cost incurred and the volume printed we can place

    Xerox printers and check difference in cost. Thus we can analyse from

    this that it is more profitable to use Xerox products.

    As in the case of Motilal Oswal we can see that they are currently

    incurring approximately 0.68p per print but when compared with the

    equivalent printer of Xerox in the category the expenses will come

    down to 0.36p thus we can conclude that it is more cost effective.

    We can also see in the case of Capgemini the cost incurred at present

    per print is approximately Rs 2, but with the solutions provided by

    Xerox the cost can considerable be brought down.

    Lupin Pharmaceuticals is at presents spending approximately .90p per

    print but we could see that the expenses incurred by them could be

    cut down by 1/3 rd of what they are spending at present.

    Thus from some of these observations we could analyse that Xerox

    products are cheaper to run when compared to the solutions currently

    in place in these organizations.

    Due to a 2 tier model, Xerox customers are not directly in

    touch with the Company. A point of contact should be made

    for the customers to address their grievances.

    More awareness should be spread amongst customers about

    diagnosing minor problems.

    It has been noticed that the existing customers having

    problems with the post sale services (maintenance, delivery

    of toners etc), thus there is a larger scope of improvement forthe retention of customers.

    Services visibility and branding should be increased to use

    service as a differentiator. To position services better,

    services can be advertised. Also, technical staff can be

    provided with Xerox branded apparel while making visits to

    a client. Moreover, it will also act as an image enhancer for

    the organization.

    As it has been notices that awareness of Xerox is very low in

    its target market, it is feasible for the company to have print

    advertisement in business magazines and newspapers

    targeting its market audience.

    It is important for the company to spread awareness and thus

    participating in different Industrial trade fairs gives

  • 8/7/2019 onais report

    47/58

    Documentation Management Process of Different Organizations47

    organizations a platform to demonstrate its products and

    even educate the customers of its service offering.

    A long term strategy is to visit different Business Schools andeducate the managers of tomorrow on how to save paper; it

    will also give the company an opportunity to show the product

    line that it offers. This activity would leave an impact on them

    and thus would help to increase the customer base when

    those students become the decision takers a couple of years

    down the line.

    Xerox has an average market share in the Services sector but

    the existence is negligible in the Knowledge and

    Manufacturing sector as represented by the bar graph earlier.

    India is a booming economy and there is still expansion and

    growth expected in the manufacturing and knowledge

    (including Research and Development), thus targeting these

    sectors can be lucrative.

    Organizations are expert in their own domain and so is Xerox

    in the segment. It is an intuitive decision taken by different

    organizations when procuring Printers, Photocopiers,

    Multifunctional devices. Thus providing consultancy services

    will also help in increasing the market share.

    Thus form the calculations we can conclude that it lucrative to compile

    paper in FSMA.

    As in todays scenario Xerox is dealing in paper and FSMA separately both

    giving different profits but if this model is implied, the margin of profit

    combined together is higher than what is generated by Xerox separately.

    This would also give a boost to the paper business that is being operated

    by the company.

    When the calculation was done it was found that the profit from FSMA atthe rate of 20% on the following machines gives a profit of

    WC 7242 = 0.08p

    WC 5632 = 0.07p

    WC 123 = 0.09p

    WC 5655 = 0.07p

    WC 5675 = 0.06p

    And the profit margin on Challenger paper is approximately 0.012p

    Therefore when separately dealt with the combined profit from FSMA and

    Paper is provided below, but when FSMA and paper are combined a

    margin of 20% is kept then:-

    Current New

    WC 7242 = 0.92p ----------- 0.108p

    WC 5632 = 0.82p------------ 0.104p

    WC 123 = 0.102p---------- 0.114p

    WC 5655 = 0.82p------------ 0.112p

    WC 5675 = 0.72p------------ 0.094p

    It has been assumed that the a bundle of Challenger

    containing 500 sheets is available in the market for Rs 130.

    Per sheet cost to be approximately 0.26p

    All calculations are based on assumptions and datacollected from different sources.

    Cost incurred is the assumed cost that the company will be
