The consultants have made a systematic approach to develop a methodology consistent with the requirements of the market study, objectives, parameters and SME definition provided by the Local Enterprise Investment Centre (LEIC). Based on such analysis, the consultants have developed a solid, precise and overall understanding of the study. When selecting the SME's, the consultant will give importance to the enterprises which have a reasonable supply chain market and distribution channel of product. The information of this type of supply chain will help determine some local companies producing quality product and reasonable financial capacity.

lso have to perform the duties of

1. Comprehensive list of Fast Moving Consumable Goods (FMCGs) compatible to the large company's existing product.
2. List of companies producing those products and willing to form a joint venture

Based on this requirement and nature of the FMCGs, the approach HB has taken is dividing the whole process into two major components.

1. Market Survey
2. Enterprise survey

The estimated and maximum number of enterprises will be surveyed are 300 (Appx). So after the preparation of the final product selection it is estimated that against the final items selected by client, 300 enterprises (Appx.) will be surveyed/ identified through Key Informants interviews (KII). With prescribed questioners the surveyors will visit all the companies listed and finally selected by the client. A total of 15 skilled surveyors will visit according to selection of companies of the divisions. One interviewer will at least interview 4 enterprises in a day, so in five (5) days 15 interviewers will survey 300 enterprises. Two days are estimated for one trip. So, total working days are seven days.

1. List of companies having fixed assets below 300 million
2. List of employees
3. Production Capacity
4. Number of Machines
5. Conditions of the Machines
6. Annual Turnover
