TO INCREASE THE REVENUE AND REDUCE THE COSTS FOR SIGMA TOYS

1 Installing Additional Reactor 2

Process flow after adding new
reactor at PVC Manufacturing Plant

• The solution will help Sigma Toys manage their increased supply of raw material efficiently

• The seamless integration from sourcing to contracting to order would reduce burden on employees and
improve working conditions for them
• Introduce a new reactor R2, which would help the company utilize the idle time of
other equipment
• This will help the company get real time visibility on cost saving initiatives and help improve bottom line
• Since, Sigma Toys could use maximum of 90% capacity of current reactor (R1), it
• Gig workers can be monitored through contract management such that peak demand season is met with
would not be possible to meet the growing demands of toys as it could generate
adequate supply
maximum of 196 MT PVC per cycle

• 44 MT PVC is required at final stage from R2, by doing the backward calculation, 3 New Scrappage Policy
company would require 90 MT PVC at the output of R2
• Segmenting toys into 4 categories – Bronze, Silver, Gold & Silver, the toys can be sold at varied prices
• This can be achieved by using 20% capacity utilization of R2. Further, capacity according to the segments they belong to
utilization of other equipment's would also change. For T1, A1, B1, T2 and WH1,
• Toys which do not meet the quality standards but
capacity utilization would increase to 63%
still of good quality can be categorized as Platinum
while Toys of very poor quality can be categorized
as Bronze

Platinum Scrappage can be sold online and to


dealers without Sigma Toys Label at 80% of the
MRP, while Bronze can be sold at INR 50
