PURPOSE OF STUDY
The prime purpose of the study is to gain knowledge and practical field experience, by knowing that how do the strategic management process is actually implemented in an organization. Moreover we want to know how to make strategies in unseen circumstances.
SCOPE OF STUDY
The scope of this particular study and documented report is confined only to the Kohinoor Textile Mills Rawalpindi
LIMITATIONS OF STUDY
Kohinoor Textile is a very large organization with dozen of factories and offices throughout Pakistan. It would have been impossible for us to cover all of the organization in mere eight weeks, as it requires considerably large period of time. Furthermore, business organizations are very secretive, guarded and reserved when it comes to sharing their business functioning in all facts i.e. financial, Marketing, Human Resource etc. It requires a lot of guile and astute inquiry, not to mention personal contacts in the management of organizations, to get access to confidential or in some cases in non-confidential information. Managers and employees were very hesitant in providing us organizational information (not letting us directly interview frontline workers, strictly restricting video and voice recording interviews as being against their organizational policies) and we had to go through a tedious process to get adequate and sufficient information and we did our best with it.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
This report is based on the course of strategic management, which focuses on various strategies of organizations in both preplanned situation and in a totally unpredicted environment. We, as a study group and students of MBA, conducted a research on a big name in the textile industry of Pakistan and studied their strategies and know how Kohinoor deal with its internal and external environment and completed this project. Although the company representatives were very reluctant to share and impart information about their organizations (based on their organizational policies) but we did the best we could to convince them. In the first section, a little back ground about the company is given, to provide an insight to the reader about the scope of the company. The main body of the report entails all the details about the working environment and conditions of the company in both local and international environment and the varying standards and procedures (big or small). Well this project became so interesting when we got to know that Kohinoor has to deal with a situation where its competitors are its customers and more over when we know that it does not have the same strategy for all its products. It was also very surprising to know that textile output of Pakistan is now not of very good quality international the competition has became so intense and Pakistan has lost its good international reputation in textile industry. The last part of this report contains a brief conclusion and the recommendations section to display the knowledge we have gathered and interpreted based on our knowledge and wisdom.

VISION 2000
In 1996 KMLG recognized its companies need to sufficiently prepare themselves to face international competition. In part due to reductions in tariff levels and the opening up of the Pakistani economy, being a contractual obligation under the new trading rules envisioned under the World Trade Organization. Consequently in January 1997 management embarked upon an ambitious Vision 2000 program. The Vision 2000 program is geared to ensure group companies and stake holders are prepared to meet the challengers of the new millennium. This shell be achieved through improved human resources; production to international standards and specifications; enhanced technical efficiency; reduction in waste and higher profitability leading to a better return to its stakeholders. To attain the stated objectives under the Vision 2000 program, the already existing finance central function has been strengthened plus three new central functions have been added. These new functions are Quality Systems, Information Technology and Human Resources. To ensure top management commitment to the program an Executive Committee was constituted to formally review the progress towards the stated objectives and to concurrently monitor the performance of Group companies. Key responsibilities for the Vision 2000 team have been defined and include upgradation, modernization and restructuring of the management systems and procedures of Group companies. As part of the Vision 2000 program all companies have now attained ISO 9000 Quality Assurance. Management recognized the difficult road ahead to meet the objectives of its Vision 2000 program and had given its highest priority and full commitment to achieve its stated objectives. In the financial year 2010 the company has reported the revenue from external customers as follows,

LEVEL OF STRATEGIES
Page 25
LEVEL OF STRATEGIES
Well to find out accurately the level of strategies was the most difficult phase of the entire project because we have to deal with a situation where your competitors are your customers you offer different products at different international market in different ways. So it was totally a multi dimensional project. 1) GLOBAL LEVEL STRATEGIES There are following level of strategies, a) b) c) d) International Strategy Multi domestic Strategy Transitional Strategy Global Strategy
As we know that though Kohinoor mills sells its products at international level but it does not have any SBU at another country. So when it does not have any SBU so its strategies do not fall in any of the above said strategies. However we will shortly discuss how they interact with customers internationally YARN Kohinoor does not export yarn so there is no global level strategy for yarn. INSTITUTIONAL PRODUCTS For the institutional products Kohinoor mills compete on quality basis. 2) CORPORATE LEVEL STRATEGIES
Corporate Strategy is what makes the corporate whole add up to more than the sum of its business unit parts. We determine the corporate level strategy by knowing the 2 basic answers, a) What business should the corporation be in.? b) How should the corporate office manage the array of business units? Well corporate level strategy Kohinoor textile mills strategies are detailed below,
Page 26
INNTEGRATION When in 1953 Kohinoor mill started it was engaged only in manufacturing of bed sheets, and other items without the facility of stitching, dying e.tc but soon after years Kohinoor started manufacturing its own yarn, and also installed plants for dying, and bleaching. DIVERSIFICATION Kohinoor textile mills have also diversified in other international markets like Africa, Europe. 3) BUSINESS LEVEL STRATEGIES Well Kohinoor mills do not have any specific strategy for all of its products when dealing customers. It has different strategies for its different products. We determine the business level strategy by knowing the 3 basic answers, c) Who will it serve? d) What need those target customers have that it will satisfy? e) How those needs will be satisfied? We will answer these questions one by one for different products YARN For yarn it serves its competitors so it is a unique case where our competitors are their customers, these needs are satisfied on the basis of cost. INSTITUTIONAL PRODUCT For institutional products it provides its products on quality basis. So it has strategy of differentiation for institutional products. 4) FUNCTIONAL LEVEL STRATEGIES Functional level strategies are mainly directed towards, a) b) c) d) Superior Efficiency Superior Quality Superior customer response Superior innovation
Well Kohinoor mills neither have superior efficiency nor Superior customer response. But recently they have started work on innovation.

CONCLUDING REMARKS
Kohinoor Textiles is one of the big giants and groups of textile in Pakistan textile industry. Kohinoor textile was listed first time in the market in 1987. Kohinoor Textiles was running under Maple leaf Cement Company till 2006. But in 2006 it separated from Maple Leaf and came into existence with the name of Kohinoor Textiles Mills. Kohinoor Textiles fortunately has its own major divisions just like Dyeing, Weaving, Hosiery, Home Textile, and Geeing Division. KWML is capturing the market share in local market near about 9.3% and it also exporting its fabrics and garments products to the foreign countries especially to USA and European Countries. As the Pakistan textile industry is facing many problems. Kohinoor Textiles is also facing these problems and try defending against them. Kohinoor Textiles also facing number of internal problems such as employees turnover, old technology, having no monthly plan and budgets, every time late purchasing of raw material and then of course late delivery and shipment. The main factor on which they are not paying too much attention is marketing of their textile products. They dont advertise about their products, whether you talk about the Grieg fabric, dyed fabric, garments, and home textile. They always show dependency upon their limited foreign customers as well as on local customers and they dont try to get and meet to new customers. They have to advertise and meet new customers to improve their quality, and capturing the market share whether it is local or foreign market share. They can use e-marketing concept to advertise over the internet.
