Executive Summary
In each and every management training scheme there is a provision for real job experience within the academics time period calls it summer training or corporate training or corporate interaction. The main aim of this is to introduce the corporate arena. This training To utilize and implement the theoretical knowledge of the classroom into real corporate world. It is well said nothing is much practical than a good theory. But on the very same we cannot deny practical in the better than theory. These phrases are opposing each other but also are complementary to each other .experiencing both in a good dedicated manner really plays a lot in ones profession carrier. In the field of marketing the scenario is no expectation. Field experience is very much necessary for the student of marketing too in this stream of business the application of theory is very frequent from the consumer behavior to consumer satisfaction all the theory can be explained in a day spend in the field of marketing. Marketing is now so much diversified that now it can be internet, but experiencing the real marketing tactics is the field. There force I am really thankful to my college and COSMOS company for providing me this opportunity. This project on Demand analysis and perform service analysis with market is basically done by two different surveys: 1. Dealer Survey 2. Consumer Survey Honeywell has had a presence in India for many decades and currently has businesses headquartered across four locations in India Bangalore, Chennai, Gurgaon, and Pune, employing over 7000 people. Honeywells business presence in India is roughly about US D 400 million and growing at an impressive rate. The Super brands Council of India have recognized Honeywell as a Business Super brand. Honeywell Automation India Ltd is a leading provider of integrated automation and software solutions that improve productivity enhance comfort and ensure safety and security of your homes and business premises. With over 2500 employees and an annual turnover of about Rs. 868 crores, HAIL is headquartered in Pune with 8 offices all over India. HAIL is a listed company on the Indian Stock Exchange and is part of Honeywell Inc. the technology leader with 120000 employees across 100 countries world wide Since November 2004, when the parent Honeywell acquired the remaining 40% stake from the Tatas, HAIL has come a long way, stepping out from the shadows and emerging as the market leader in most of the business areas it operates in, a fact that is underlined by the presence of Rashtrapathi Bhavan in its clientele list. With its five strategic businesses, namely, the Global Services, Honeywell Building Solutions, Honeywell Process Solutions, Control Products and the Honeywell Security Group, HAIL drives the nation's growth by playing a major role in the smooth running of

the "core" business sectors of the Indian Economy, be it Infrastructure, Petrochemicals, Refining, Chemicals, Mining & Metals or Automobiles and Hospitality. The objective of this research is to determine company products demand in markets as well as proving services to client. . It involves the study the distributor channel and distributor relationship with customer regarding product and services in the market Collected the information from customer and dealer through questionnaire survey Later I went through the process of filling the questionnaires from 30 retailers as well as customer & 20 dealers selling and consuming both clients taken into account to making valuable research more effectively. Secondary data from various sources like magazines, a journal etc has also been taken. Ultimately, it can be said that the most important task of marketing research is to identify demand of the product. Although this study is conducted at small level (only some part of Thane) yet the findings and suggestions of it will help the management of the organization. The study will also help the organization in making decision regarding promotional schemes and also identified the hidden opportunity in the certain other area as well as company what types of services give to clients after selling the products It also includes the visits of the places where others competitors similar products were installed to get their performance feedback and identified the hidden opportunities for Honeywell company After done the research to find out which assumption should be right in selected market area and presenting the Researched report for the company .This report were will used full for company

Introduction about Subject

Demand
The amount of a particular economic good or service that a consumer or group of consumers will want to purchase at a given price. The demand curve is usually downward sloping, since consumers will want to buy more as price decreases. Demand for a good or service is determined by many different factors other than price, such as the price of substitute goods and complementary goods. In extreme cases, demand may be completely unrelated to price, or nearly infinite at a given price. Along with supply, demand is one of the two key determinants of the market. The concept of demand takes on a very particular, and somewhat different, meaning in economics. Economically speaking, to demand something means to be willing, able and ready to purchase a good or service. Let's examine each of these requirements in turn:

Willing to purchase: Being willing to purchase simply means that one likes an item enough to want to buy it, and this is usually what people think of when they encounter the concept of demand. However, it's important to remember that, while it's good to want things, desire to purchase is not the only requirement for economic demand.

Able to purchase: Wanting to purchase an item doesn't mean a whole lot if one doesn't have the means to make the transaction happen. Therefore, ability to purchase is another important factor of demand. Economists don't specify how an individual must be able to pay for an item- she can pay with cash, check, credit card, money borrowed from friends or taken from the piggy bank, etc.

Ready to purchase: Demand is, by its nature, a current quantity, so an individual is only said to demand something if she is willing and able to purchase it now as opposed to some point in the future. Putting these three requirements together, it is reasonable to think of demand as answering the question "If a seller were to show up right now with a whole truckload of the item in question, how much would an individual purchase?" Demand is a pretty straightforward concept, but there are a few other things to keep in mind: Individual vs. Market Demand Not surprisingly, demand for any given item varies from person to person. Nonetheless, market demand can be constructed by adding together the individual demands of all of the buyers in a market.

Implicit Time Units It doesnt really make sense to describe demand without time units. The formal definition is services are an economic activity offered by one party to another, most commonly employing time-based performances to bring about desired results in recipients themselves or in objects or other assets for which purchasers have responsibility. Time-based means something the firm does, which is within a certain time period. Desired results are outcomes desired by the customer. In exchange for their money, time and effort, service customers expect to obtain value from access to goods, labor, professional skills, facilities, networks and systems Organizations also use a wide array of business-to-business (B2B) services, varying to some degree according to the nature of their industry, but usually involving purchases of a much larger scale than those made by individuals or families. Nowadays, firms are outsourcing more and more tasks to external service providers in order to focus on their core business

Services:
Marketing has been considered to be an integral business aspect for long. Service marketing is the endorsement of economic activities offered by a company to its consumers, it is considered to be a special sub set of marketing because it focuses on how rendering of services can affect both the customer attitude and the marketing strategy. Service marketing includes building public relations, advancing customer loyalty, developing quality of service, handling relationships and complaint management. Service marketing involves 3 types of marketing: 1. EXTERNAL MARKETING 2. 3. INTERNAL MARKETING INTERACTIVE MARKETING

Product and service quality Product and service quality, customer satisfaction and company profitability are intimately connected. Higher levels of quality result in higher levels of customer satisfaction, which support higher prices and lower costs. Studies have shown a high correlation between relative product quality and company profitability." Quality is clearly the key to value creation and customer satisfaction".

From a management point of view, marketing is an organizational function and set of processes for creating, communicating, and delivering value to customers and for managing customer relationship in ways that benefit the organization and its stakeholders. Marketing management is the art & science of choosing target market and getting, keeping, and growing customers through creating, developing, and communicating superior customer value.

Interacted with 50 potential investors and acquired good exposure in Sales. The company may also get an idea of investors demand

There are two places that scope is defined on project. High-level scope is defined in project charter. Low-level scope is defined in business requirements document. High-level scope consists of two main components. 1. Deliverables. If you cant remember anything else about scope, list your deliverables. Defining deliverables goes a long way toward defining the overall scope of the project. 2. Boundaries. The try to define the boundaries of project. Boundary statements help to separate the things that are applicable to project from those areas that are out of scope. There are two broad categories of research: applied and basic. Applied means you have a problem and you are trying to solve it. Basic means you are trying to understand the universe and have no immediate use for the information. Companies who want to make money generally do applied research; basic research is done universities, government agencies and not-for-profit think tanks. The scope of a research project outlines the extent of the project and the requirements necessary to achieve the goals and objectives The work that needs to be accomplished to deliver a product, service, or result with the specified features and functions During the project, this documentation helps the project team remain focused and on task. The scope statement also provides the project team with guidelines for making decisions about change requests during the project Terms of reference or statement of work, explains the boundaries of the project, establishes responsibilities for each team member and sets up procedures for how completed work will be verified and approved.

Limitation
Low connectivity Less sampling The limitation faced while doing a research was that the people were not ready to give the information. Sometimes the required persons were not available in there office or place The respondents use to refuse to give the important information best known to them The sources of data collection and time are limited in this research.

Marketing Research (MR) is not an exact science though it uses the techniques of science. Thus, the results and conclusions drawn upon by using MR are not very accurate. Marketing Research (MR) is not a complete solution to any marketing issue as there are many dominant variables between research conclusions and market response.

Marketing Research( MR) is not free from bias. The research conclusions cannot be verified. The reproduction of the same project on the same class of respondents give different research results. Some respondent in corporate offices hesitate to give complete information. Some respondent has not given proper information. Unavailability of visiting cards from some respondent. Some of the retailers were busy and could not give appropriate information. And also very few retailers did not want to share any information

As study was done in Thane , it did not covered broader area to understand prescribing behavior of customer

20 | P a g e

Inappropriate training to researchers can lead to misapprehension of questions to be asked for data collection. The Data collected from the Dealer might not be very accurate to obtain the desired information.

Difficulty in gathering the reasonable data. The period of the project was not sufficient to study all the factors in deep. Visiting various places for the study consumed a lot of time.

We cannot say that what the consumer have revealed will be right for each and every situation because their perception is influenced by many factors. Many consumer and dealers/retailers showed less interest in providing information and havent cooperated. Some of confidential information viz. credit period, schemes, policies and sales figure were not disclosed by the competitors.

Research Methodology
A research design is the arrangement of condition for collection and analysis of a data in manner to combine relevance with research purpose with economy in procedure. Research methodology is considered as the nerve of the project. Without a proper wellorganized research plan, it is impossible to complete the project and reach to any conclusion. The project was based on the survey plan. The main objective of survey was to collect appropriate data, which work as a base for drawing conclusion and getting result. Therefore, research methodology is the way to systematically solve the research problem. Research methodology not only talks of the methods but also logic behind the methods used in the context of a research study and it explains why a particular method has been used in the preference of the other methods. Research Design: It is conceptual structure within which research is conducted. It constitutes the blue print of collection, measurement and analysis of data. Research design is needed because it facilitate the smooth selling of various operations, thereby making research is efficient as possible yielding maximum information within minimum time, effort and money. Research design stands for advanced planning of methods to be used for collecting relevant data and techniques to be used in the analysis. The design helps researchers to organize his ideas whereby it will be possible for him to look for flows and inadequate. Research Approach General Survey In this case, a general survey to gain knowledge about the market, commonly known as the pilot survey was and undertaken where particularly information was gathered with respect to the brands, peoples / consumers perception so that it serves as a foundation to prepare the questionnaire for collecting primary data and that it helps in deciding other methods to be adopted which may be useful in gathering the necessary information. Methods of data Collection: While deciding about the method of data collection to be used for the study, there are only two types of data Primary Data Collection Method Secondary Data Collection Method

23 | P a g e

Primary Data Data that has been collected from first-hand-experience is known as primary data. Primary data has not been published yet and is more reliable, authentic and objective. Primary data has not been changed or altered by human beings; therefore its validity is greater than secondary data. Question Types The profiling Sheet contains the three types of questions: Multiple choice Numeric Open End Text Open/Close End There are two types of modes to collect the data. Survey Method Observation Method

Observation This method is used to get past and current information of company and product. For example What is brand image of the company? Which are services providing to customer? How do approach to customer? How do approach to dealer? Survey

This method is useful to gate actual information about market condition of that particular product.Survey involves some questions or we can say feedback report. As far as the data collection method is concerned, designing the data collection for Survey method is applicable to the project.

Statistical Methodology Descriptive Method The research which carried in this project for that descriptive method of research is used. The term descriptive research refers to the type of research question, design, and data analysis that will be applied to a given Project. Descriptive research is also called Statistical Research. The main goal of this type of research is to describe the data and characteristics about what is being studied. The idea behind this type of research is to study Comparative study, Market share, Position in Segment. Frequencies, averages, and other statistical calculations. Although this research is highly accurate, it does not gather the causes behind a situation. Descriptive research is mainly done to gain a better understanding of topic. Analytical Method In this research the survey method is used to collect the data from the market so that data contains the different facts and numbers. Use in this data analysis is done to know the market position.

Theoretical Aspect Subject

Demand
The amount of a particular economic good or service that a consumer or group of consumers will want to purchase at a given price. The demand curve is usually downward sloping, since consumers will want to buy more as price decreases. Demand for a good or service is determined by many different factors other than price, such as the price of substitute goods and complementary goods. In extreme cases, demand may be completely unrelated to price, or nearly infinite at a given price. Along with supply, demand is one of the two key determinants of the market price.

Aggregate Demand - The combined demand of all buyers in a market. Budget Constraint - The outermost boundary of possible purchase combinations that a person can make, given how much money they have and the price of the goods in consideration. Buyer - Someone who purchases goods and services from a seller for money. Competition - In a market economy, competition occurs between large numbers of buyers and sellers who vie for the opportunity to buy or sell goods and services. The competition among buyers means that prices will never fall very low, and the competition among sellers means that prices will never rise very high. This is only true if there are so many buyers and sellers that no one individual has a significant impact on the market's equilibrium. Complementary Good - A good is called a complementary good if the demand for the good increases with demand for another good.
29 | P a g e

Demand - Demand refers to the amount of goods and services that buyers are willing to purchase. Typically, demand decreases with increases in price, this trend can be graphically represented with a demand curve. Demand can be affected by changes in income, changes in price, and changes in relative price. Demand Curve - A demand curve is the graphical representation of the relationship between quantities of goods and services that buyers are willing to purchase and the price of those goods and services. Diminishing Returns - Concept that the marginal utility derived from acquiring successive identical goods decreases with increasing quantities of goods. Economics - Economics is the study of the production and distribution of scarce resources, and goods and services. Equilibrium Price - The price of a good or service at which quantity supplied is equal to quantity demanded. Also called the market-clearing price. Equilibrium Quantity - Amount of goods or services sold at the equilibrium price. Because supply is equal to demand at this point, there is no surplus or shortage. Expected Value (EV) - How much a buyer thinks that a good or investment will be worth after a time lapse, based on the probabilities of different possible outcomes. Usually refers to stocks and other uncertain investments. Giffen Good - Theoretical case in which an increase in the price of a good causes an increase in quantity demanded. Firm - Unit of sellers in microeconomics. Because it is seen as one selling unit in microeconomics, a firm will make coordinated efforts to maximize its profit through sales of its goods and services. The combined actions and preferences of all firms in a market will determine the appearance and behavior of the supply curve. Goods and Services - Products or work that are bought and sold. In a market economy, competition among buyers and sellers sets the market equilibrium, determining the price and the quantity sold. Horizontal addition - The process of adding together all quantities demanded at each price level to find aggregate demand Household - Unit of buyers in micro economics. Because it is seen as one buying unit in microeconomics, a household will make coordinated efforts to maximize its utility through its choices of goods and services. The combined actions and preferences of all households in a market will determine the appearance and behavior of the demand curve. Income Effect - Income effect describes the effects of changes in prices on consumption. According to the income effect, an increase in price causes a buyer to feel poorer, lowering the quantity demanded, and vice versa. Although the buyer's actual income hasn't changed, the change in price makes the buyer feel as if it has.
30 | P a g e

Indifference Curve - Graphical representation of different combinations of goods and services that give a consumer equal utility or happiness. Inferior Good - A good for which quantity demanded decreases with increases in income. Marginal Utility - Additional utility derived from each additional unit of goods acquired. Market - A large group of buyers and sellers who are buying and selling the same good or service. Market Economy - An economy in which the prices and distribution of goods and services are determined by the interaction of large numbers of buyers and sellers who have no significant individual impact on prices or quantities. Market-clearing Price - The price of a good or service at which quantity supplied is equal to quantity demanded. Also called the equilibrium price. Microeconomics - Subfield of economics which studies how households and firms behave and interact in the market. Normal Good - A normal good is a good for which an increase in income causes an increase in demand, and vice versa. Optimization - To maximize utility by making the most effective use of available resources, whether they be money, goods, or other factors. Resource - A supply of capital that can be used in an economy. Because resources are scarce, however, there is not enough to go around. Risk - Refers to the amount of variation in possible payoffs. A very risky investment will have wide variation in possible payoffs, but might have a higher expected value; a less risky investment will have a more predictable payoff, but a lower expected value. Scarcity - Goods, services, or resources are scarce if there is not enough for everyone to have as much as they would like. Seller - Someone who sells goods and services to a buyer for money. Substitute Good - Refers to a good which is to some extent interchangeable with another good, meaning that when the price of one good increases, demand for the other good increases. Substitution Effect - Describes the effects of changes in relative prices on consumption. According to the substitution effect, an increase in price of one good causes a buyer to buy more of the other good, since the first good has become relatively expensive, and vice versa. The buyer substitutes consumption of the second good for consumption of the first.

31 | P a g e

Supply - Supply refers to the amount of goods and services that sellers are willing to sell. Typically, supply increases with increases in price, this trend can be graphically represented with a supply curve. Utility - An approximate measure for levels of "happiness." Wage - Price per unit of time when the good being sold is some form of labor or work (as opposed to a physical product.
The different types of demand

Direct and Derived Demands Domestic and Industrial Demands Autonomous and Induced Demand Perishable and Durable Goods Demands New and Replacement Demands Final and Intermediate Demands Individual and Market Demands Total Market and Segmented Market Demands Company and Industry Demands

Determinants of Demand
When price changes, quantity demanded will change. That is a movement along the same demand curve. When factors other than price changes, demand curve will shift. These are the determinants of the demand curve. Income: A rise in a persons income will lead to an increase in demand (shift demand curve to the right), a fall will lead to a decrease in demand for normal goods. Goods whose demand varies inversely with income are called inferior goods. Consumer Preferences: Favorable change leads to an increase in demand, unfavorable change lead to a decrease. Number of Buyers: The more buyers lead to an increase in demand; fewer buyers lead to decrease.

32 | P a g e

Price of related goods: a. Substitute goods (those that can be used to replace each other): price of substitute and demand for the other good are directly related. b. Complement goods (those that can be used together): price of complement and demand for the other good are inversely related. Expectation of future: a. Future price: consumers current demand will increase if they expect higher future prices; their demand will decrease if they expect lower future prices. b. Future income: consumers current demand will increase if they expect higher future income; their demand will decrease if they expect lower future

Introduction on Service
The world economy nowadays is increasingly characterized as a service economy. This is primarily due to the increasing importance and share of the service sector in the economies of most developed and developing countries. In fact, the growth of the service sector has long been considered as indicative of a countrys economic progress. Economic history tells us that all developing nations have invariably experienced a shift from agriculture to industry and then to the service sector as the main stay of the economy. This shift has also brought about a change in the definition of goods and services themselves. No longer are goods considered separate from services. Rather, services now increasingly represent an integral part of the product and this interconnectedness of goods and services is represented on a goods-services continuum.

Definition and characteristics of Services The American Marketing Association defines services as - Activities, benefits and satisfactions which are offered for sale or are provided in connection with the sale of goods. Intangibility: Services are intangible and do not have a physical existence. Hence services cannot be touched, held, tasted or smelt. This is most defining feature of a service and that which primarily differentiates it from a product. Also, it poses a unique challenge to those engaged in marketing a service as they need to attach tangible attributes to an otherwise intangible offering. Heterogeneity/Variability: Given the very nature of services, each service offering is unique and cannot be exactly repeated even by the same service provider. While products can be mass produced and be homogenous the same is not true of services. Perishability:
34 | P a g e

Services cannot be stored, saved, returned or resold once they have been used. Once rendered to a customer the service is completely consumed and cannot be delivered to another customer.

Inseparability/Simultaneity of production and consumption: This refers to the fact that services are generated and consumed within the same time frame.

Types of Services
Core Services: A service that is the primary purpose of the transaction Supplementary Services: Services that are rendered as a corollary to the sale of a tangible product. Services marketing mix The first four elements in the services marketing mix are the same as those in the traditional marketing mix. However, given the unique nature of services, the implications of these are slightly different in case of services. Product: In case of services, the product is intangible, heterogeneous and perishable. Moreover, its production and consumption are inseparable. Hence, there is scope for customizing the offering as per customer requirements and the actual customer encounter therefore assumes particular significance. However, too much customization would compromise the standard delivery of the service and adversely affect its quality. Hence particular care has to be taken in designing the service offering. Pricing: Pricing of services is tougher than pricing of goods. While the latter can be priced easily by taking into account the raw material costs, in case of services attendant costs - such as labor and overhead costs - also need to be factored in. Thus a restaurant not only has to charge for the cost of the food served but also has to calculate a price for the ambience provided. The
35 | P a g e

final price for the service is then arrived at by including a mark up for an adequate profit margin. Place: Since service delivery is concurrent with its production and cannot be stored or transported, the location of the service product assumes importance. Service providers have to give special thought to where the service would be provided. Thus, a fine dine restaurant is better located in a busy, upscale market as against on the outskirts of a city. Similarly, a holiday resort is better situated in the countryside away from the rush and noise of a city. Promotion: Since a service offering can be easily replicated promotion becomes crucial in differentiating a service offering in the mind of the consumer. Thus, service providers offering identical services such as airlines or banks and insurance companies invest heavily in advertising their services. This is crucial in attracting customers in a segment where the services providers have nearly identical offerings. We now look at the 3 new elements of the services marketing mix - people, process and physical evidence - which are unique to the marketing of services. People: People are a defining factor in a service delivery process, since a service is inseparable from the person providing it. Thus, a restaurant is known as much for its food as for the service provided by its staff. The same is true of banks and department stores. Consequently, customer service training for staff has become a top priority for many organizations today. Process: The process of service delivery is crucial since it ensures that the same standard of service is repeatedly delivered to the customers. Therefore, most companies have a service blue print which provides the details of the service delivery process, often going down to even defining the service script and the greeting phrases to be used by the service staff. Physical Evidence: Since services are intangible in nature most service providers strive to incorporate certain tangible elements into their offering to enhance customer experience. Thus, there are hair salons that have well designed waiting areas often with magazines and plush sofas for patrons to read and relax while they await their turn. Similarly, restaurants invest heavily in their interior design and decorations to offer a tangible and unique experience to their guests

Honeywell Integrated Building System Guides Residents to Safety & Minimizes Damages in Istanbul High-Rise Fire

Honeywells integrated building management system played a key role in safely evacuating residents and minimizing damage in a fire at the 42-floor luxury Polat Tower in Turkey last week. Honeywell supplied the residence with integrated building management systems for HVAC and lighting, fully integrated with other systems for fire alarm, card access, intrusion detection and CCTV.
53 | P a g e

As the fire spread over buildings faade, the fire sensors connected to the Honeywell intelligent fire alarm system gave alarm signals to the control center, and then initiated a number of fire emergency operations across other key building systems. The smoke damper from the floor where the alarm was received was opened and exhaust fans on the roof were switched on as natural gas flow to the building was stopped. Pressure fans serving the fire staircase and elevator shafts were switched on to prevent spread of the fire to other floors, and the integrated public address/voice alarm system was activated to instruct the 1,500 residents to evacuate. Additionally, the speakers and strobe lights located through the staircases were activated to guide residents towards exits and all access controlled doors, including turnstiles on the ground floor, exit barriers in the car park and all other doors on the way towards the exits, were released automatically in order to enable quick escape of residents from building without creating any panic. No injuries were sustained during the fire, and Honeywells smart building system has been credited with avoiding a much larger disaster. The integrated smart building system was implemented in Plat Tower in 2002 and has been maintained by Honeywell since that time.

To protect employees and your assets from this destructive force, select a Honeywell fire detection system engineered by a Honeywell authorized commercial dealer. A Fire Detection system is similar to a nervous system for a building. Honeywells line of fire detection devices allows the alarm system to sense the presence of smoke, sense heat inside of a room and remotely control items like door releases and elevators. In addition to sensing the condition of the items, the system can monitor the trouble outputs of other whole systems, allowing you to create a status monitoring system for other systems within the building. Thus, you can create a sophisticated integrated system that controls the building based upon logical sequences.

Suggestion

The company should reduce the cost of their products and the margin of the retailers should be increased. There should be proper channel of information, whenever any scheme is introduced by the company for the retailers, they should be properly informed about the scheme. There should be proper feedback for the retailers as well as customers whenever any scheme is introduced for the retailers & customers they should be made aware of it. Sales representatives should be given guidelines to intimate each and every retailer of his area about the schemes. Increase number of distributors in the area like thane, navi Mumbai and vashi The Salesman should at least visit once in a weak to those retailers which doesnt stock Honeywell products with some new offers and schemes to increase the market share. The company representative like the area sales manager should visit once in 2 months to the corporate customers and retail customers for the overall satisfaction of the retailer and to check performance of the product regular meetings should be arranged with the company staff in order to know the practical problems faced by them and should be resolved suitably. Demand for security products will increase in the coming future therefore they should try to exploit this situation Build a variety of competencies (build core competencies into diverse product lines) Increase company recognition through a national advertising campaign. Company should target each and every class of the society Company should provide full information to the customers before targeting so they can take interest

Company providing services support to the customers and retailers Honeywell company doing targeting and searching market activity business opportunity. for expanding

The Companies should more concentrate on R&D rather than wasting their money in various Sales promotional techniques.

Company should try to providing discount on bulk purchasing product
