1. INTRODUCTION
In order to gain practical knowledge in the field of Total Quality Management, we are required
to make a report on Benchmarking Taking GIK Institute as Initiator firm and
International Institutes as Target firm. Benchmarking is a process for improving
performance of an organization by continuously identifying, understanding & adopting
outstanding practices and processes inside or outside the organization. Initiator firm is such a
firm which undergoes the process of benchmarking. This benchmarking is required in order to
achieve satisfactory level of quality in terms of products and services. Target firm is the one
which is considered as the role model for the initiator firm. Here, with the help of several
observations and analytical approach of critical evaluations, we will try to achieve the
Benchmarking by applying different management models. Also we will try to find the lead time
required for the implementation of the benchmarking process. This gives us motivation to study
the prevailing culture, strategies, policies and management system in Ohio Wesleyan University
and Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST). Through this assignment
we come to know about importance of team work and satisfied one of our program learning
outcome i.e. investigation.
2. OPERATIONS MANAGEMENT
OM stresses on improving the product and process design. It utilizes the system view which
defines product quality as a function of various variables including management, planning,
procedures, labors and machines. OM focuses on continuous improvement of core processes. It
also helps in identifying the root of quality problems. The major focus is shifting to customer
needs.

2.1
Operations in GIKI are majorly being carried out manually and in obsolete way. Administration
block majorly deals with several issues related to finance or academics. Some technological
changes has been brought to upgrade the academic processes like online attendance and
establishment of Quality enhancement cell, the administration block still lacks standard quality
practices. In order to demonstrate the processes performance in GIKI we can take example of
Procurement and Purchase of Material from outside.

PROCESS BENCHMARKING
It is carried out to observe and investigate the business processes. The process maps, operating
systems and process technologies of initiator firm are studied and compared to bring
technological changes within the core processes.
Step 5: Project future performance levels. According to the current position of GIKI the
performance gap in the management is likely to widen. This is because the yearly intake and
enrollment of students has considerably increased in last two years which means more
managerial work and the current system of GIKI administration will be unable to cope up with
this increase.
Step 6: Communicate benchmarking findings and gain acceptance. The above findings will
be documented in this report. These findings may be communicated to the top management of
GIKI by our supervisor or other readers. But, as this is benchmarking activity is being carried out
solely for academic purpose, the results are not 100% accurate.
Step 7: Revise performance goals. Here the operational goals were administration, academics
and industrial linkage and the gaps were identified. For future the other operations such as
allocation of budget to faculties or communication between faculties and top management could
be analyzed and benchmarked in the same way.
Step 8: Develop action plans. Projects are designed on the basic of the results or gap identified
after benchmarking process. For example a project to improve the manual work in the
administration block could be designed.
Step 9: Implement specific actions and monitor progress. As the implementation of above
mentioned projects take place, a proper monitoring of the progress due to technological changes
is necessary. This will tell us how fruitful the activity of process benchmarking was.
Step 10: Recalibrate the benchmarks. As quality management is a process of continuous
improvement further benchmarking could be carried out with more successful targeted institution
like MIT to raise the performance bar.
