How Shree Cement Accelerated Its Procure-To-Pay Cycle
April 2017
|Express Computer
TO SUSTAIN its position in the industry, Shree Cement decided to upgrade its ERP system to minimize downtime.
Growing from a single manufacturing plant with a 2 million metric ton production capacity per annum, Shree Cement now sells 25.6 million metric tons cement per annum and operates 10 manufacturing plants across North and East India and more than 50 regional sales offices. The company aims to build more new plants in South India and invest in new technology to ensure timely delivery and enhance customer satisfaction.
Due to rapid year-on-year business growth, the firm’s legacy ERP platform could not support the increased transaction volume, such as processing cement orders across multiple locations. It also needed to shut down the ERP system for monthly patches updates, negatively affecting manufacturing operations. The unsupported legacy system also posed a significant risk to the business.
Since 2008, Shree Cement used legacy Oracle Database and Oracle e-Business Suite for its ERP system. With 20% growth in cement production and 30% growth in power generation annually, the company experienced performance issues with its legacy ERP system due to exponential growth in transaction volume and additional loads on the server. To overcome these challenges, Shree Cement decided to upgrade its ERP system to Oracle Database 12c and Oracle e-Business Suite Release 12.2.4.
Reduced planned system downtime
The upgrade has helped Shree Cement gain real-time visibility into its ERP processes, and reduce planned downtime. It has helped the company in accelerating its procure-to-pay cycle time by a factor of 69x and enabled faster dispatching time. Managers can create reports 40% faster with the added advantage of improved inventory planning.
