Filed in archive News on January 6, 2006

Air India has replaced its paper-based procurement process with an advanced supply chain management solution that helps simplify the procurement process, ensures greater transparency, brings about economics in unit procurement cost and participation of more vendors, irrespective of their geographical location.

Implemented at a cost of Rs 5 crore, the new system will help break some of the barriers that exist in paper-based procurements, like dependence on specific buyers, inability to reach to all vendors regarding requirements and procedural delay in procurement.

The Oracle supply chain solution, a module of Oracle ERP application implemented by Satyam, was rolled out on Thursday.
