ERP Case Study
Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP)
 
Building interfaces to E-Procurement solution as a part of the Oracle applications implementation at leading consumer electronics giant in North America
 
 
The customer
The client is the North American arm of the Japanese consumer electronics and multimedia giant, which makes music, movies, and TV shows, as well as the products that bring them to life. Its electronics products include TVs, DVD players, digital cameras, and CD players
 
The challenge
The client uses a custom developed E-Procurement solution called SPIRITS to enable vendors view the outstanding orders, receipts, confirm deliveries and also obtain short and long term forecasts over the Web.

The goal was to build extensions on Oracle Applications to interface with SPIRITS and develop a flexible solution, which could be easily extended to other business organizations within and to deliver a solution for demanding rollout schedules.

 
Wipro solution
Wipro's involvement is end-to-end in this project including:
Participation in understanding user requirements
Technical Design
Development of the System
Implementation support
On-going post production/implementation support

Our solution was intended to address the following business goals:
POO Outbound interfaces supporting
New Purchase Order Shipment creation
Changes to an existing Purchase Order Shipment
Cancelled Purchase Order Shipment
Purchase order Shipments
Shipment Receipts
Forecast Information containing Short and Long term information
Delivery confirmation notifications

System performance as a significant customer requirement was well addressed by Wipro with good database design and optimized code. Wipro had full life cycle involvement with development handled totally offshore. This pilot project amply demonstrated our offshore execution resulting in the subsequent offshore activity and a sustained savings model for the client's IT investments.

The key technology used for development included Oracle Applications 10.7 - PO and Inventory - and tools like Oracle 7.3.4, PL/SQL, Unix - Shell. The key feature of the Wipro execution was a well-defined roadmap for offshoring, starting with a pilot project to demonstrate concept, followed by full-fledged adoption. Further a single source partner for different IT initiatives we were able to reduce drastically learning time and integration efforts.
