Verticalization
Top management had reviewed the process of “Verticalization” that was
being implemented in the Indian operations as the changes suggested
that relative to the past there would be a greater role for product
divisions. The top management was very keen that the new structure was
fully implemented and understood in India so that they could support the
company strategy in India. But it has challenges and opportunities.
Basically, the philosophy verticalization is to have product strategy for
the world. It has resulted in an international production network with all
plant within the family of product being connected each other. Is allows
best practices to be shared, ensures consistencies in manufacturing
processes, facilitates balancing of production capacities to deal with
surges in some regions and maintain quality standard across the world.

long delays in resolving simple issues;
– Loose identity of organization and identification of employees with the
organization
– Conflict between units that were supposed to work together
– Affecting employees mobility across divisions
