Global IT services provider NTT Data has helped India-based spice manufacturing leader DS Group recoup its SAP Ariba Solution investment in just four short months, employing its proprietary customer success platform, Collaborative Commerce to help DS Group increase operational efficiencies while reducing both expenses and errors.
NTT Data harnesses the advanced capabilities of SAP Ariba to assist many client organisations to improve their operations, with a focus on sourcing and e-procurement. Their Collaborative Commerce platform helps retailers and consumer packaged goods (CPG) organisations leverage technologies to improve operational efficiencies and implement customer-centric engagement systems.
Citing improved efficiency in sourcing and purchasing processes, Anshu Dewan, vice president, new business development, DS Group, said: “We were able to develop over 200 new vendors to mitigate our supply chain risks and deliver tangible cost savings of 10-15 per cent across various categories.”
“They helped us leverage the Ariba platform to eliminate paper-based activities and the inefficiencies, errors, risk, costs and delays. Finally, they have helped us increase transparency across functions,” added Dewan.
For customers like DS Group, NTT DATA provides a portfolio of application services spanning the Ariba lifecycle to improve bottom-line performance by integrating procure-to-pay (P2P) processes and bringing them together on a single technology platform.
Experienced in integrating SAP Ariba with multiple ERP systems, NTT DATA has successful implementations in diverse industries, from automotive and manufacturing to real estate and fast moving consumer goods (FMCG).
