MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS REPORT
Industrial Structure and development
BIBCOL was established for supply of Oral Polio Vaccine for meeting
National Immunization Programme of Government of India. Commercial
production was started in the year 1996 and since then contributed
significantly to the National Immunization Programe. In the year 2006, the
facility was up graded to meet the WHO cGMP & revised schedule M of Drugs &
Cosmetics Act.
To meet the current requirement of Oral Polio Bio-valent Vaccine BIBCOL has
geared up and has obtained permission for trial batch production of bOPV
and shall obtain the manufacturing license in due course of time. For
future growth of BIBCOL, two more products have been added viz, Zinc
dispersible tablet and Diarrhea Management Kit.
Segment-wise or product-wise performance
To strengthen the R&D, BIBCOL has taken up two more projects of Iron Folic
Acid and Mineral Vitamin Mix and the work is under progress.
Outlook-opportunities, threats, risk and concerns
Opportunities: Gaining importance of Infant health among public, provide an
opportunity for new health care products. BIBCOL is targeting the segment
of malnourished children and has planned for development of products.
Threats: Growth of private manufacturers, dependency on foreign body for
bulk of OPV, frequent change in foreign exchange rates, reluctance of the
Ministry of Health & Family Welfare to award preferential supply order to a
PSU that was established to support government polio eradication programme,
abolishment of purchase preference to PSUs are perceived to be treats.
Risks: End of product cycle of OPV and low market for zinc as relatively
new product in diarrhea management.
Concerns: Perpetual import of bulk vaccine of OPV, non- availability of
technology for new products like Injectable Polio Vaccine.
Internal control systems and their adequacy
The Company has established systems providing adequate internal controls,
commensurate with its size and nature of the business. Such systems have
been appropriately documented.
Financial performance with respect to operation performance
Effective cost controlling process had been adopted to reduce Sundry
Expenses as could be appreciated from the Profit & Loss Account.
Human Resources
The Company regards its human resources amongst its most valuable assets.
It proactively reviews and evolves policies and process to attract and
retain its substantial pool of scientific, technical and managerial
resources and work force through a work environment that encourages
initiative, provides challenges and opportunities. However, all employees
need to be updated for recent developments and quality standards through
training to improve their competence. Regular training programmes were
introduced for the employees. M/s Bharat Immunologicals and Biologicals
Corporation Limited has sought help of Department of Biotechnology (DBT),
Government of India to strengthen Human Resource Development. |
