2. Yes, I do think customer relationships evolve over time.

In the business world, creating and fostering relationships is considered one of the most
important skill sets a worker can possess. Strong business relationships lead to greater financial
success, increased customer loyalty and improved brand image - aspects that are necessary for a
company to thrive in today’s business climate that we like to call, “The Relationship Era.”
Companies that flourish today succeed because they were built with relationships in mind.
However, over the years, we’ve seen that the ways relationships are developed and maintained
by companies have evolved and shifted. Now the goal of marketing is to create strong
relationships between a company and its customers. And the reason that one to one marketing
and user based segmentation are so valuable is that they help strengthen company’s relationships
with their customers. Over the years, we’ve seen that business priorities have evolved to become
more focused on customer relationships than ever before.
Good customers experiences help create an intense feeling of loyalty toward the company and its
products and services. There are several stages of loyalty as customer relationships develop over
time. The customer lifecycle is a term that describes the different steps a customer goes through
when they are considering, buying, using, and remaining loyal to a particular product or service.
So I want to share my experience with Grameenphone and the relationship life cycle stages i
went through.

Management Information System

Grameenphone, widely abbreviated as GP, is the leading telecommunications service provider in

Bangladesh, with more than 74 million subscribers and 46.3% subscriber market share. It is a
joint venture between Telenor and Grameen Telecom Corporation.
Stage 1: Awareness
I get to know about Grameenphone through an advertising in the TV. It was due to a promotional
ad in 2007 about internet services and its benefits. It really attracted me because at that time
getting a good internet service is a big thing with some extra offers. And during that time
2007/2008 Grameenphone was the first telecom company who was able to do coverage all over
the Bangladesh
Stage 2: Exploration
In the exploration stage, I get to learn more about the Grameenphone or its products. I visited
their website to learn more about its features and services. They frequently send us the user’s
message about their new offers. They always tried to convince people with their attractive offers.
They always promised the customers to give better network service always.
Stage 3: Familiarity
In this stage, I was already a customer of theirs and had done several transactions and I knew
Grameenphone’s policies, pricing, flexibility etc. I was really frequent to avail their offers and
services as I was a regular customer back then. And they used to offer frequent offers and
discounts at this point. As a customer I hadn’t that much transaction but in that time I had done
2-3 times flexi load a month. And as their call rate was very high students like me didn’t do that
much transaction. But buying internet packages was a regular transaction as it was new and
people was getting more attracted during that time. The price was not that much flexible but as
there was not that much telecom on that who could provide better service than them so people
was regularly using it.
Stage 4: Commitment
After experiencing a considerable number of highly satisfactory encounters with a company, I
developed a fierce loyalty or strong preference towards Grameenphone. Even I used to tell my
friends and family to try out their services and offers and how amazing and satisfied I am with
their services. Sometimes Grameenphone used to make concessions on prices or terms.
Customer’s value used to worth more to them than the costs of these concessions. As we know
most of the operators was not able to provide better service than them so we always
recommended them with highly satisfactory and became a loyal user’s of Grameenphone in that
time.
Stage 5: Separation
Over time, the conditions and terms that made me attracted and loyal to them changed. As the
call rate that was before getting higher day by day and as I was a student it was a bit expensive
for me. So I switched from Grameenphone to Airtel. As other operators started giving low call
rate which was very much appreciated and accepted by all. People of low-mid family started

6
Management Information System

converting into other operators than Grameenphone. So do I. And if we see in other hand that in
case of 3G network providing Grammenphone was not in frontier of it. As they brought the 3G
network after facing a lot of government issues. Also in case of 4G network.

4. One of the most noticeable consequences of the coronavirus pandemic has been the strain on
the global supply chain, with customers finding that some products are more difficult to find in
their local stores. Danko Turcic, Associate Professor of Operations and Supply Chain Management
at UC Riverside's School of Business, said that the current climate is creating "previously unknown
disturbances in both supply and demand." In order to understand why it is important to know how
supply chains operate. Turcic defines the supply chain as a logistics network made up of vendors,
distributors, warehouses, distribution centers and retail outlets. Having either provided the retailer
with the ability to respond to both supply and demand shocks. The problem is that a lot of suppliers
or large security stocks are more expensive than having fewer suppliers and fewer safety stocks.
First and foremost, we are seeing drastic changes in demand for certain products, leading to the
following:
i. Shortages: Shortage of hand sanitizers and paper products, which are subject to
manufacturing constraints.
ii. Rationing: Many retailers are responding to shortages by rationing those products.
iii. Prioritization: Online retailers offer priority to the procurement and distribution of some
products (domestic and medical).
iv. Reduction: Reduction in the number of SKUs (stock-holding units) sold by many retailers.
Many retailers have limited product diversity in order to make their supply chains more
manageable. This helped both to concentrate and to make more storage space for products
that are currently in high demand. Essentially, handling supply chains during the recession
is not business as normal.
A well-designed supply chain is being built to withstand such supply fluctuations and fluctuations
in demand. However, the variations in demand for things such as toilet paper, hand sanitizer, hair
clippers and other household goods are well beyond the normal range of variations. The
manufacturing base is simply not built for it, nor should it be, because it makes no sense to have
such overproduction of these particular goods in a normal period of time.
It is a set of procedures that are necessary for receiving goods or services from the requisition to
the purchase order and the receipt of invoices. Although purchasing is the overall method for
acquiring the required goods and services on behalf of the company, procurement defines the
activities involved in obtaining them. Irrespective of the uniqueness, each procurement
management process consists of 3 Ps, i.e. Procedure, People and Paperwork.
i. Phase: List of guidelines to be followed when checking, purchasing, receiving and paying
for goods / services. Checkpoints / steps are increasing with the sophistication of the
purchase.

7
Management Information System

ii. General People: There are stakeholders and their unique responsibility for the
procurement cycle. They are responsible for initiating or approving each stage of the
process. The number of stakeholders concerned is directly proportional to the cost and
expense of the transaction.
iii. Print on screen: This relates to the paperwork and documents involved in and stage of the
procurement process, all of which are compiled and processed for reference and auditing
purposes.
Each procurement management process includes a variety of elements, including requirements
determination, supplier study, value analysis, purchase request submission, review phase,
conversion to purchase order, contract administration, monitoring / evaluation of received orders,
three-way matching, payment fulfillment, and record keeping. These are the main stages in the
process of procurement:
Step 1: Recognition of Needs
The identification of needs stage of the procurement process allows companies to draw up an
appropriate procurement strategy for products and services in a timely and cost-effective manner.
Step 2: Purchase Essential
Purchase requisitions are written or electronic requests submitted by internal users / customers
requesting assistance from the procurement team to satisfy current needs. It contains the key details
needed to purchase the right products, services or works.
Step 3: Examination of the requisition
The procurement process will officially begin only after the purchasing request has been accepted
and the availability of the budget has been cross-checked. At the review point, functional managers
or department heads review the requisition package and double-check if the products or services
required are actually needed and also check if the appropriate funding is available. Authorized
purchase requests become POs, while denied requests are sent back to the requisitioned for reasons
of refuse. All of these can be done with a simple purchase order app.
Step 4: Request method
Once the requisition has been accepted and PO has been developed, the procurement team will
create an individual procurement plan and draw up an appropriate solicitation method. In the end,
the nature of this individual solicitation strategy depends on the specificity of the request. If the
budget has been accepted, the procurement team forwards a range of quotation requests (RFQ) to
suppliers with the purpose of obtaining and reviewing bids in order to find the right vendor.
Step 5: Evaluation and agreement
Once the tendering process is formally closed, the procurement team, in coordination with the
selection committee, will review and analyze supplier quotes to assess which supplier is ideally
suited to meet current needs. If the vendor has been selected, the contract agreement and signing

8
Management Information System

will be concluded and the purchase order will be forwarded to the vendor. A legally binding
contract triggers and accepts the right of the seller to accept the PO.
Step 6: Regulation of orders
The supplier delivers the promised goods / services within the agreed timeframe. Upon receipt of
the order, the purchaser shall review the order and inform the seller of any issues relating to the
goods purchased. At this point, three documents purchase orders, product slips (which arrive with
the order) and vendor invoices are organized and reconciled in order to locate the variations and
ensure that the transaction is correct. Discrepancies should be resolved after they have been
identified.
Step 7: Billing with permits and disagreements
If the three-way matching is done, the invoice is accepted and forwarded to payment processing
in compliance with the organizational norms.
Step 8: Holding Notes
After the payment process, buyers can report it for accounting and auditing. All relevant records,
right from purchase requests to accepted invoices, are kept in a centralized location.
Contactless last-mile delivery arrangements have become a new normal for the businesses during
covid- 19 situation. During the initial phases of the pandemic, the B2B logistics industry came to
a halt. At the same time, the B2C industry emerged as individuals in lockdown went on to the
internet to make their buys.
 There will be an incredible decrease in the demand for consumable merchandise and items
and more increased demand for essential living supplies between the countries.
 Trade between countries for luxury and leisure products will also decrease for a year or so
till the countries can make up for the financial loss they have incurred due to the
pandemic. The most tradable commodities will be pharmacy, vaccinations, surgical masks
and gloves, hospital supplies, perishables and food items that the countries are in desperate
need. Covid-19 is making land buyers to reexamine their approach.
 The idea of a consolidated warehouse may not work now as the only smart way to survive
this pandemic is to have smaller and numerous distribution centers spread.
It is to ensure that if one region may be locked down due to Covid-19, they can access
supplies through other warehouses.
 Warehousing industry will likewise be in profits if the manufacturing units shift outside
China. We may not observe investor activity in this segment right away, but, as the
pandemic gradually mellows down, they would come back with investment opportunities
and a plan to fully utilize the potential of logistics industry as new trends would have
unfolded by then.
The principles of supply-chain design and management have come to the fore due to the ever-
increasing sophistication of the processes that drive buyer-supplier ties in both the industrial and
consumer markets. The unparalleled degree of supply chain management sophistication is partially

9
Management Information System

due to the Internet through its more recent market adoption and commercial use. Deals with new
strategic dynamics arising from the exponential pace of Internet growth and the creation of
commercially viable supply chains to address the demands facing emerging virtual organizations.

E-procurement is a business-to - business or business-to - consumer or business-to-government

purchasing and selling of goods, works and services via the Internet as well as other information
and networking networks, such as electronic data exchange and enterprise resource planning. E-
Procurement or electronic procurement refers to the method of purchasing and selling of products
or services by electronic means, in particular the Internet. It is an alternative to, and definitely
superior to, the manual selection process in many respects. Organizations are gradually opting for
e-Procurement systems, recognizing their ability to curb anomalies and excessive costs. Supply
Chain Management is essential to every company. Organizations are investing a lot of money in
the purchase of goods, services and raw materials. A successful and automated procurement
process is therefore a major benefit for companies. E-Procurement consists of Indent Management,
RFX Growth, e-Tendering, e-Auctioning, Vendor Management and Contract Management, among
other processes. An e-Procurement system will automate the whole process, saving companies
from difficulties and complications in the manual procurement process. E-Procurement portals are
designed for users to register as a distributor or supplier, upload all applicable documents online
and engage in the tendering process that follows.
E-Procurement helps business in many ways and it also helps the business run smoothly. The factor
of E-Procurement in case of business is given below:
i. Cost of cutting: Companies tend to cut their expenses without harming their profitability.
Through selecting the right suppliers, the procurement workers actively help reduce the
outgoing costs and operating risks of their business.
ii. Enable Creativity: Procurement professionals hold a strong role within a company. As
people who select which suppliers to work with, their choices determine the form of supply
chain in which they operate. Through selecting suppliers that add value and drive creativity,
procurement teams may strategically put their businesses in a more competitive position.
iii. Using strong data: There is a distinction between gatherings as much data as you can and
basing your decisions on high quality supply chain data. For a complex supply chain that
includes product development, manufacturing, packaging, distribution, pricing, forecasting
and more, the correct use of the data creates insights that drive revenue and increase
productivity. You’re going to find this difficult if you have a mountain of complicated,
poorly verified data. There are data to make things simpler and less complicated.
iv. Push the development of new markets: The best opportunities for value growth can
sometimes be found outside of your established markets and supply chains. But going into
the unknown takes a great deal of study, experience, and assurance.
v. Conformity assistance with CSR: Corporate social responsibility is a big business thing.
For this reason, a thorough pre-qualification process for procurement professionals is
necessary. Obtaining and validating knowledge from suppliers in an integrated approach
enables faster and more flexible decision-making. Our societies are building a collaborative
partnership between buyers and suppliers.
A low-tech, low-cost solution that allows consumers to print detailed labels directly from
Grainger.com to better define, coordinate and maintain inventories. Businesses may also build
online inventory lists for quicker identification of products and quick reordering is known as

through email that how much products are there in stock.

the Offers you've got, or the Deal for that listing.
 If you are on the Offer page, you can accept, reject or submit a counter offer. Your reply
will be forwarded to the purchaser. When you accept a bid, the recipient will need to build
a PO, which you will receive an email again first, and you will see the PO by going to My
Listings, PO’s Got. Click the PO button to accept or deny the PO.
 If the paper is sold at the dock, you will need to fill in the pick-up address at the PO. When
you have approved the PO, you can then invoice the seller in your own accounting method.
Go2Paper automatically invoices you a processing fee of 5 percent of net inventory
purchases. Most transactions made on credit, however, it is up to you as the seller to decide
the terms of the loan. Make sure you have the credit set before you approve the PO.
