CHAPTER II

TECHNICAL ASPECT After the market study was done the technical feasibility of the proposed business will be the next step. The main objective of this chapter is to determine the step-by-step procedure of producing different kinds of puto with minimum cost and expenses, but of superior quality. Technical aspect consists of selecting the raw materials and equipments needed to produce different kinds of puto, and the plant location which will be accessible to people. This chapter also determines the quantity of products to be produced, the required labor force, the utilities needed to sustain production, and the necessary transportation for the distribution of the product. Technical Description of the Product The different kinds of puto such as; Putong Puti, Puto Malunggay, Puto with Red Egg, Special Puto Pao(adobo). The malungay puto flavor is a healthy substitute to bread and other snacks existing in the market. The pulvoron espesyal (mani) is an alternative to chocolates as dessert.

1. Preparation The first step in making puto is to prepare all the ingredients and the equipments needed. This will take 5-10 minutes. 2. Mixing After preparing all the materials, mix all the dry ingredients in a mixing bowl. When the mixture is ready, beat the eggs and slowly pour it into the mixture. This will take 10 minutes. 3. Molding After we have attained the consistency of the mixture, use the measuring spoon and place it in the molder already coated with cooking oil. This will take 10 minutes. 4. Cooking Place the molder inside the steamer. This will take about 15 - 20 minutes. 5. Packaging and Labeling After cooling the puto it is now ready for packing. The label will be attached to each package.

Source of Raw Materials The ingredients in making puto are readily available in the grocery store, supermarkets and even in the Malolos Supermarket.

Production Schedule The making of puto will be done twice a week depending on the sales or order. Six (6) kilos of all purpose flour will produce 600 pieces of puto. In each pack will contain 10 pieces of puto. Our production for two (2) days will be 1,200 pieces of puto. Four thousand eight hundred (4,800) pieces of puto will be produced in a months time. Table 10 presents the production schedule of Puto Manufacturing for the first five years of operation.

Prices of Raw Materials and Equipments Table 10-17 presents the quantity and prices of raw materials for the production of puto, production equipments, production furnitures and fixtures, office furnitures and fixtures, office supplies, manufacturing supplies, business vehicle, and other utilities needed. Price information is taken from Divisoria, and from the interview conducted by the proponents.

Labor Requirement These following are the people who are involved in the operations of the business: Position Proprietor / Manager Workers Sales Personnel TOTAL Garbage Disposal In a business, the responsibility of the firm does not only lie with satisfying the customers, but more importantly, in maintaining the cleanliness, not only of the production process and the finished product, but most especially the environment where the plant is established and its surrounding community. To guarantee that the manufacturing of puto preserve cleanliness, the proponents will seek the help of the City Health Sanitation Office with regards to the important guidelines that must be followed pertaining to sanitation and cleanliness. The proponents will assure that they abide by these guidelines and policies to avoid problems in the operation of the business. No. of Employees 1 2 2 5

Proper waste management is very necessary. The proponents considered providing two garbage drums, in and out of the establishment. The use of the garbage drums is to separate the biodegradable wastes from the non-biodegradable wastes. Biodegradable materials will be recycled while non-biodegradable materials will be collected by the garbage collectors roaming around the City of Malolos.

Plant Location The target location for the manufacturing of puto is Mary Grace subdivision, Plaridel, Bulacan. The proponents agreed to use a residential area. The plant location is 80 square meters. The building is ready and no renovation is needed. The following are the reasons taken into consideration for determining the location of the business establishment:
1. It is popular or known to people. Interested buyers can easily locate the

place and avail of puto. 2. It is accessible to all means of transportation. The R.B. TORIO also has our Business Address at Gazebo, Provincial Capitol Compound, City of Malolos, Bulacan.
