On Ensuring And Developing Resources For The Enterprise's Ttcl

Small and medium enterprises in Hanoi are focusing on exploiting. Through a survey of the demand for outsourcing activities, it is shown that: The group of most outsourced activities includes domestic transportation, which is the group of activities that customers in Hanoi have the highest demand for, and international transportation, which is the group with the lowest demand. More complex logistics activities such as order management, goods consolidation, payment services, freight management, etc., small and medium enterprises currently do not have an orientation towards this market.

b) The current status of service quality and service differentiation of enterprises

Small and medium logistics enterprises in Hanoi

The service quality of logistics enterprises is greatly influenced by factors such as the adaptability of means of transport, storage capacity for goods waiting and consignment, freight rates, transportation time, etc. Therefore, to improve service quality, logistics enterprises must focus on investing in diverse means and facilities and creating large-scale, even global, transportation networks. However , small and medium-sized logistics enterprises in Hanoi are facing many difficulties in creating resources to invest in improving service quality.

In general, the service quality of logistics enterprises in Hanoi is not high, and the services are not diverse. Most logistics enterprises do not create differentiated products and services, so in business, enterprises rely on the foundation of traditional customer relationships. With the quality of service and the ability to provide only a few activities in the supply chain, small and medium logistics enterprises are unlikely to develop the market and access customer markets that are foreign-invested enterprises. Therefore, the customer base of small and medium logistics enterprises in Hanoi is still domestic customers.

2.3.5.5. For tourism service businesses

Travel businesses in general have not paid due attention to product development and construction, lack of certainty about the market , and have not created many new products to meet market demand. The business scale of the majority of travel businesses is still small , the level of spending on research and the implementation and application of technology in tourism programs is still limited.

On Ensuring And Developing Resources For The Enterprise's Ttcl

Accommodation businesses have focused on investing in infrastructure to improve the quality of services provided to customers. However, the quality of service in accommodation establishments is still weak, reflected in the following aspects: limited professional qualifications of staff, weak communication and foreign language skills, enthusiasm and friendliness of staff.

low staff. All of these factors have directly affected the quality of service.

services of these businesses.

In the tourism sector, businesses try very hard to create differentiation in the products they provide to customers. However, tourism products are very easy to imitate , so the results achieved from the efforts to create differentiation in tourism businesses are very limited.

From separate analysis for each type of enterprise, it can be seen that there are still some main problems in the use of tools to meet the demand in the retail and service enterprises as follows: The ability to meet customer needs in the retail market in terms of quantity , quality and service is still limited and is losing its competitive advantage compared to large-scale enterprises, this becomes a special problem that needs to be overcome in the retail and logistics enterprises . Small and medium-sized retail and logistics enterprises are currently much weaker than large-scale foreign enterprises that are rapidly dominating the Vietnamese market. The main reason is that the resources of enterprises are still quite limited, so although they clearly recognize the unfavorable competitive situation, enterprises have not been able to overcome the difficulties ; The XTTM programs have focused on efficiency but there are few separate XTTM programs for the TTCL segment, so the development of the TTCL is not much different from the remaining market segments of the enterprise; Enterprises need to focus on improving the efficiency of distribution channels to ensure good access to customers in the TTCL .

2.3.6. On ensuring and developing resources for the enterprise's quality management system

2.3.6.1. TTCL management organization

In fact , the management of TTCL in SMEs is often under the direct control of leaders and senior managers. This situation stems from two main reasons: First , in SMEs, the organizational structure is relatively simple, compact, and has few levels, unlike in large-scale enterprises. Therefore, strategic activities are often placed under the control of leaders and senior managers. Second, in these enterprises , only leaders and senior managers have strategic vision, while middle - level managers in the organization do not have enough capacity, qualifications, and strategic thinking to ensure good implementation of this function. The investigation shows that the main positions involved in managing TTCL are: business owners , Board of Directors, Board of Management , heads of business and sales departments, heads of product lines and market segments.

Marketing management activities in SMEs are integrated into the marketing department. For businesses with an independent marketing department, marketing management is often placed in this department. Marketing management activities are usually directly implemented and monitored by the marketing department managers .

2.3.6.2. TTCL leaders and administrators

Because the management of quality assurance is placed at the control of senior leaders and managers, it is necessary to assess whether the capacity of senior leaders and managers in SMEs meets the requirements for implementing quality assurance management or not? According to the survey results, only 26.2% of senior leaders and managers are very interested in the quality assurance issue of the enterprise, 65.2% are interested, but through in-depth interviews, the leaders and senior managers in this group only have a very general interest, so it will be difficult to take specific actions to effectively implement the management of quality assurance of the enterprise. The remaining 8.6% admitted that they are not really interested in this issue.

The capacity of senior leadership and management in SMEs has been assessed through a number of research projects on SMEs. However, in terms of senior leadership and management capacity within the scope of quality management, only 15.6% of enterprises said that their senior leadership and management capacity meets the requirements of quality management, 11.5% said that they do not meet the requirements of quality management, and a fairly large proportion of 72.9% of enterprises said that they have met the requirements of quality management . However, through in-depth interviews and inferences, it is shown that the reliability of these answers is not high due to sensitive reasons .

2.3.6.3. TTCL management fund

In fact, the rate of provisioning for the management of the TTCL fund in enterprises is not uniform, depending on the different stages of development of the enterprise and some other factors. When evaluating the effectiveness of using the fund, the actual effectiveness of using the fund in SMEs is not high. Through practical research, most enterprises only evaluate the effectiveness of using the marketing fund in general, not the effectiveness of using the management of the TTCL fund. Moreover, not many enterprises have determined separate marketing programs for the TTCL, but most of them still use the same or only have a few differences, so it is very difficult to determine the separate effectiveness of the fund in managing the TTCL.

2.3.6.4. R&D, production technology, operations

R&D is considered the key to creating breakthroughs and leaps for businesses. However, R&D requires large investments and is not always successful, even the success rate in R&D is relatively low. With the characteristic of limited resources, especially financial resources, Vietnamese SMEs face many difficulties in implementing R&D activities. 100% of surveyed businesses answered that they have R&D activities , but when looking deeper, the level of investment in R&D in businesses is very different. Only a few businesses invest in R&D in a real way, with a methodical strategy to develop R&D. Other businesses only implement R&D when the need arises from practical business operations.

2.3.6.5. Brand development on TTCL

Nowadays, businesses are well aware of the need to build and develop brands in the market, as well as consider brands as an organizational resource for businesses to expand and develop business activities. Obviously, businesses with brands will have an advantage in competing with other businesses. The brands of large-scale businesses have been affirmed and shaped in the minds of customers. Besides the brands of large businesses, some SMEs have also built their own brands. However, due to limited resources, many SMEs do not have a specific brand strategy, so brand development in the SME sector is still quite modest .

In short, the activities of ensuring and developing resources to meet the needs of SMEs have initially met the basic requirements for the current period . In addition, there are still some existing problems that need to be further resolved: each enterprise needs to invest a larger budget for activities on the market; continue to improve the capacity and strategic vision of business administrators; strengthen R&D activities and brand development to better support enterprises when orienting the development of long-term market segments.

2.3.7. Assessment, inspection and control of TTCL management

2.3.7.1. Marketing information system

The quality of the marketing information system in SMEs is increasingly improving . This reflects the increasingly clear awareness of businesses about the importance of the marketing system. However , the marketing information system in SMEs is not developed synchronously, the internal recording system is assessed as quite developed, while the marketing intelligence system, marketing research, and marketing decision support systems are only at the level of meeting business requirements. In fact, in SMEs, there are almost no specialists to deploy the marketing system, information collection activities are of great interest to businesses but

The collected information has not been processed and does not support businesses well when making decisions.

decide in advance the market situations.

2.3.7.2. Check and control the enterprise's quality management

Checking and controlling the quality of the market is carried out regularly and quite strictly. That is the result obtained from the actual survey of Vietnamese SMEs in Hanoi. Enterprises control the quality of the market based on basic indicators such as sales, profits achieved from the quality of the market, the market share of the enterprise compared to competitors, the rate of increase in the number of customers and the average increase in sales per customer. However, due to the limitations of the information system of Vietnamese SMEs, difficulties in collecting and processing background information, most enterprises only control the quality of the market based on economic indicators recorded by the internal information system: sales, profits, market share. In general, enterprises have done a good job of controlling the results achieved on the quality of the market. But when asked about the ability to control changes in customers such as the number of regular customers , average sales per customer , businesses said they still lacked this information. Controlling the market in general and the TTCL in particular based only on internal factors of the business is not guaranteed to meet the requirements . In particular, when learning about the ability to control the TTCL situation under the impact of competitors, very few businesses have enough information about competitors, many businesses fall into a passive situation right in their own TTCL before the moves of competitors.

In short, to check and control more closely and effectively, enterprises need to focus on building and effectively exploiting information systems. Many enterprises are trying to build massive information data files, but the information structure in the data files is not balanced and synchronized. In addition, the use of information to evaluate, control, and adjust efforts on the quality management system is not effective.

2.4. General assessment, issues and causes of current management situation

TTCL value of small and medium-sized enterprises and services

2.4.1. Outstanding successes and reasons

2.4.1.1. Notable achievements

Firstly , Vietnamese SMEs have a clear awareness in building and implementing a market philosophy in the direction of making maximum efforts to satisfy the needs of customers in the market . After 20 years of innovation, the thinking of today's businesses has changed a lot , the philosophy towards customers in the market is no longer a formality as in the early stages of economic mechanism transformation. Today, businesses realize that it is a matter of survival and is very practical, urgent and needs to be done immediately. Especially

Among the SMEs in Hanoi, most of them are non-state enterprises and were newly established during the renovation period, so all actions of enterprises are very pragmatic. Building a market philosophy also aims to solve existing problems in the market work of enterprises.

Second , market research activities on customers have been focused on by businesses, many Vietnamese SMEs have taken measures to update customer information. Initially, a customer data system has been built through measures such as creating VIP cards, preferential cards, etc. And updating information has been focused on and implemented by some businesses periodically or regularly .

Third , a significant number of SME managers have been exposed to value theory. From there, SME managers are gradually shifting from the mindset of providing a certain product to providing the values ​​that customers expect. Nowadays , SME pay great attention to satisfying customer benefits, knowing that enhancing other benefits besides product utility is a unique competitive advantage of SME.

Fourth , based on the ability to satisfy customer needs , Vietnamese SMEs have done a good job of market segmentation , clearly identifying the market segments that the business can meet .

Fifth , SME managers have a correct understanding of the role of information systems in implementing and controlling quality control . Therefore, in recent times, SME have gradually built information systems in the following aspects: investing in implementing information systems, training employees capable of applying information systems, and increasing information updates on the system.

2.4.1.2. Causes of success

a) Objective reasons:

Hanoi has had many policies and guidelines to create favorable conditions for the development of SMEs . Since the Enterprise Law in 2000, the amended Enterprise Law in 2005, especially since the issuance of Resolution No. 14-NQ/TW (9th tenure) on continuing to innovate mechanisms and policies to encourage and facilitate the development of the private economy in 2002, the Hanoi Party Committee has directed the entire political and administrative system from the city to the grassroots level to thoroughly grasp the spirit of the Central Government to create favorable conditions for economic sectors, including the private economy, to develop. The city has implemented 9 working programs of the Hanoi Party Committee, 14th tenure, closely following the above spirit. Many new policies have been researched and proposed by the City to support businesses, especially SMEs, to overcome difficulties.

Some typical policies include implementing administrative procedure reform, decentralizing more to the grassroots, separating the administrative management function of the State from the business management function of the grassroots. In particular, switching from the form of "pre-inspection" to "post-inspection" in business registration and establishment; implementing the "one-stop-shop" regime in granting business registration certificates; registering tax codes and seals ; establishing tax advisory councils in wards to advise on determining reasonable tax rates for business households; implementing the one-stop tax mechanism; gradually declaring and paying taxes electronically.

The city has implemented many policies to support production and business premises for enterprises such as planning 11 industrial parks with a total area of ​​2094.11 hectares, 49 industrial clusters and 177 industrial craft villages with 3940 hectares; supporting infrastructure construction costs, deducting compensation, and clearing land for enterprises. Currently , 8 industrial parks and 19 small and medium-sized industrial clusters have completed or basically completed technical infrastructure to come into operation.

The city has implemented financial policies and mechanisms such as: creating conditions for private enterprises with projects in preferential investment sectors to borrow capital from the City Development Investment Fund ; establishing the SME Credit Guarantee Fund (November 2006); encouraging credit institutions to pay attention to private enterprise customers; implementing credit interest rate support for customers eligible for interest rate support under the stimulus program of the Government and the State Bank. Outstanding loans to the private sector of commercial banks in the city increased rapidly and reached a rate of about 50% of total outstanding loans.

Implement many trade promotion programs, provide information assistance to businesses, support online consulting, support market development , support businesses in training human resources. Implement industrial promotion programs, issue regulations to recognize craft villages in the capital. Organize to honor typical private enterprises and business owners, and artisans .

b) Subjective causes

The business community in the capital is growing stronger and stronger, many business owners are well-trained, have high cultural and professional qualifications. Thanks to that, the ability to think , perceive and access new knowledge of the business community in the capital is relatively high.

Enterprises have actively applied modern technology in collecting and processing information. Nowadays, thanks to the progress of science and technology, many new technologies have been born to facilitate enterprises in collecting, processing and storing information .
