Identify the target market and competing priorities:
The current population of Vietnam has showed that the age structure of Vietnam has rapidly
been changing: the proportion of all age groups has increased or decreased significantly. In
particular, the proportion of children in the group (0-4) years of age in 2007 reduced by a half
compares with that in 1979. In contrast, in 20 years, the proportion of the age group from 5 has
increased twice: from 0.16% in 1979 to 0.38% in 1999. This signal has increased longevity
and population aging trend is happening.

For the elder, the demand for milk is extremely large. Milk is good for old people only to meet
the daily nutritional supplements but also provide essential nutrients to help their body prevent
diseases common in old age. From the middle age, the demand for energy has reduced but the
demand of nutrients such as protein, calcium, iron and vitamins still need to be ensured.
Regarding calcium, the calcium in the body is lost each year in both men and women are
estimated at 0.3% -0.5%. For women in the period before and after menopause (around 10
years), the amount of calcium lost more than men from 2% -5% per year. So the supplement
calcium need of women in this age group is higher than men (at least from 1000-1500mg per
day). Meanwhile, although the daily needs of the body is not much, only about 1.2 mg. But the
rate of iron absorption should be at least 10% so the daily iron requirements foods have
increased over 10 times, which is 10-20mg per day. If the body is lack of iron can lead to
deficiency anemia with symptoms such as lightheadedness primarily, dizziness, body fatigue,
pale skin ... So, for this age food is low - fat but rich in other nutrients such as protein, calcium
... Low-fat milk is a food that can meet the requirements of little energy supply but much
protein with high biological value and calcium.
After analyzing on customers and basic characteristics of milk that fit elderly subjects, the
group has decided to make a development on fresh dairy products for the elder.
Prospect subjects of Moc Chau dairy cattle breeding company are people aged 40-60 who are
living and working in the territory of Vietnam.
The company will invest a milk production line separately with high levels of iron and calcium
that fits anti-aging for the elder. Besides, the company will leverage the existing infrastructure
of source materials including grass and cow number of companies and local people,
transportation as well as distribution systems to save most costs. So the system of production,

distribution, procurement processes and marketing are presented in the following which will
be applied not only to the company's new products, but also to the existing products.

machinery in the workshop, the runway of the airport, workers at the construction site or the
processing unit of the computing environment ... The task may be operated in the workshop,
the time off or landing at an airport, the stages of a construction project or computer program

orders have been "late". Is there any way for you to lead the order and support others people to
have "achieve"?

available technological lines, human resources as well as other inputs were responsive (stages
before the transmission has been operating here as well as the stage of raw material, the
collection ...). Working here is only moderate in the planning framework processing line.
With a capacity of 160 tons per day with 75% line capacity of 8 tons per hour relative duping
operate 20 hours per day and 4 remains hours for the rinsing, cleaning and maintenance.

6. Building quality management plan
In goods and services production, it is said that product quality is the scrumptious product or
service, gain qualifications of areas or worldwide and meet the expectations of customers
with acceptable cost. If the production process is not consistent with the cost price, the
customer will not accept its value. It means the price is higher than the price that customers
have to spend in exchange for the properties of the product. On that basis, the same basis for
the social reality in order to meet quality standards for company products, Moc Chau dairy
cattle breeding JSC decides to choose ISOO-9000 system.
ISOO_9000 system is the standard procedure which is regarded as a new technology to help
manage a business organization to create high-quality products to satisfy customer benefits.

external relations.

-

Quality policy: overall intentions and direction related to quality management will be
announced

Page 16 / 18


-

Quality management: coordinated activities to direct and control the quality.

Specifically:
-

Quality Planning: Focus on setting quality objectives, and regulations of the necessary
business processes and related resources to implement those.

In summary, to integrate into the world market, the enterprises must have language in
common each other and ISO9000 is such language. ISO9000 is not only a standard of
product quality, but also a quality management system applies to the unit to improve
governance accordingly, thereby ensuring the implementation commitment to quality
