Fibre Cement Sheets
A Marketing Perspective

Fibre Cement Sheets
A Marketing Perspective

1. Introduction
Fibre Cement Sheets (FCS) account for around 11% of the roofing market in India. Valued at around INR 39 Billion, this industry segment is expected to clock growth rates of about 8 to 10 % [1]. The industry follows an oligopoly market structure and hence the players have similar pricing and limited brand premium. The big 4 in this industry, (viz Everest Industries Limited, Hyderabad Industries Limited, Ramco Industries Limited and Visaka Industries Ltd.,) cover about 70% of the market capacity. a. Growth Drivers
Along with the growth in the overall roofing market, the Fibre Cement Sheet market is growing on count of the following factors: a) Increased Income in rural areas: gradual shift from thatched roof. b) Growing government impetus for affordable rural housing c) Advancements in technology, making it a viable alternative to traditional housing material like clay tiles. d) Increasing warehousing requirements in urban, semi-urban centers. e) Increasing urbanization of India, as shown by the rapid increase in the number of towns. (Census towns in India grew from 1362 in 2001 to 3894 in 2011.)

2. Segmentation
Though FCS was primarily used for industrial purposes, increase in the production volume, along with ease of access has transformed this into a retail product. The users for FCS can be grouped as per their common needs, as outlined below: Figure 1: FCS Roofing Solutions: User We have identified the following pen-profiles based on degree of need and their sensitivity to costs. Segmentation Model | Pen Profile Name | Description | Rural User, planning to move from kuccha roofing to a more reliable one | Rampal Singh | He is someone with modest aspirations and limited means. Wants to get away from the pain of rebuilding his thatched roof every year. | Semi-Urban user(Census Town) | Mahesh Jadhav | The face of the rapid urbanization of India. He is a user who is trying to get out of the village and make a space for himself in the city. | Urban Migrant | Raju | A struggler, who has made it to the city, but is trying to make it big. For now, he is trying to make ends meet. | Urban User | Pravin Gaikwad | He is a migrant who has found his footing in the city. He will eventually become a non-user. | Urban User (Large Volume player) | Brijesh Bhai | A contractor, he uses FCS for his temporary requirements during construction projects and also encourages his architect to use some of these sheets on projects like industrial warehousing and government contracts for shelters. | * RURAL USER

Dounia Benkabbou April Bombka Valerie Bright Brittany Brown MBA 533-Human Resource in Management Dr. Andrew McLeod May 15, 2016 Human Resource Organization Design An efficiently run human resources department can provide an organization with structure and the ability to meet business needs through managing the organization’s most valuable resources—its employees. This internally coherent system, or a business within a business, must be aligned with the mission and objectives of the organization (Becker & Huselid, 1999). Therefore, the human resources department must work closely with management and understand the organization’s goals. The human resource department is responsible for analyzing the entire organization so it can propose proper adjustments to management for increased efficiency, production, and financial success (Ulrich, Younger, & Brockbank, 2008). The Typical Human Resource Department While the structure of the human resources department might vary from organization to organization, there are six essential functions of any human resources department no matter how big or small: recruitment, safety, employee relations, compensation and benefits, compliance, and training and development (Mayhew, 2016).
