DARE TO THINK BEYOND THE COMMON MBA SPECIALIZATIONS

IT, Finance, HR, Marketing, Banking are the common specializations which come to any candidates mind when they think of pursuing MBA. But with the nature of businesses and economy getting dynamic with each passing day in the context of globalization one has to think beyond the common MBA specializations. It is in these areas where umpteen opportunities and less saturation exist. One such offbeat specialization is Logistics/Supply Chain Management.

Emergence of organized retail, increase in foreign trade, growth of manufacturing sector has contributed to the growth of Logistics industry in India. Good logistics and supply chain management departments have become imperative to every industry/company having plans to expand globally. Automobiles, Aviation, Mining, and Consumer Goods are some of the sectors that are investing heavily on logistics industry.

Logistics Industry is expected to grow annually at the rate of 15-20% by 2015.

Some of the important functions of the Logistics Department include – materials management, purchasing and stores management, manufacturing and operations management, buying, physical distribution of goods and supply chain management.

Biz Idea!!

EasyFix, an on-call-technician service, was born out of a personal need. Plumbers and electricians are known for not showing up on time. Also, varying rates, following up difficulties and security were key concerns. 25-year-old Shaifali Agarwal took matters into her hands and started EasyFix in mid 2011. This is how it works: A client calls the helpline, the problem is understood and the right technician is sent. An estimated bill for the job is given and, at the end, a receipt is handed over. The minimum visiting charge is Rs 100.
Finding technicians was tough. “They had never worked in a salaried environment — only one out of 10 would agree,” says Agarwal. As word spread, technicians turned up. She also wanted to disprove that EasyFix is pricier than the neighbourhood handyman. “Our services are slightly expensive, but our target group live in South Delhi and Gurgaon,” says Agarwal. EasyFix will be in Mumbai by March end, and wants to be in all metros soon.
EasyFix now earns Rs 600-700 per day per technician and is close to break even. “We will make money as we scale up,” says Agarwal, who wants to be the biggest employer of blue-collar workers in India.

Facts & Figures-

• Operating since June 2011
• Initial investment Rs 20 lakh
• Workforce 23
• Sales Rs 2.5 lakh per month
