Mother Dairy engages Ramco for connecting sub-contractor network

Mother Dairy, one of the leading milk and dairy product manufacturers in India, has signed a 5-year agreement with Ramco Systems, an enterprise software product company focused on delivering ERP on cloud, to connect its extended network of 30+ subcontractors with an end-to-end ERP that can seamlessly integrate with its existing SAP instance at the principal site.
 
In phase I, subcontractors of Mother Dairy’s Ice Cream business have gone live on the solution. This has helped Mother Dairy get better control over purchase, have visibility of supply, ensure centralised approvals, quicker MRP and better product traceability thereby streamlining operations across locations. This has helped Mother Dairy track consumption pattern, trace batch quality, centralise approval of price list, and manage inventory.
 
Annie Mathew, CIO, Mother Dairy Fruit & Vegetable Pvt Ltd, said, “As a diversified food and beverages business group with multi-company set up having manufacturing plants across regions, we wanted to connect our ecosystem of subcontractors with an end-to-end ERP for seamless flow of information. Though our internal ERP is on-premise, the benefits of a cloud solution coupled with the strength of Ramco to offer a comprehensive, flexible and simple to use ERP which can seamlessly integrate with our in-house application tilted the decision in their favour. With this implementation, we have been able to reduce manual interventions and achieve greater transparency and accountability between both Mother Dairy and our subcontractors. We look forward to taking this collaborative relationship forward with Ramco.”
 
Virender Aggarwal, CEO, Ramco Systems, said “Every large business has its network of subcontractors, dealers, and retailers. The need to automate operations not just at the company level but to extend this to partners, dealers and subcontractors is leading to many organisations go the Cloud way. Large organisations are choosing a two-tier ERP strategy by adopting cloud based solutions which can co-exist with their current enterprise applications. Our implementation at Mother Dairy has reaffirmed the strength in our solution to help organisations build a truly connected digital enterprise.”
 
Ramco ERP on Cloud equips customers with better visibility, tighter control and improved profitability. As the solution is available online, it enables real-time visibility into the extended enterprise of dealers and sub-contractors. By comprehensively integrating data across various sections who are spread across several locations, it provides a centralised view of information and facilitates decision-making. The core modules help companies to manage their extended network effectively, besides empowering partner organisations to effectively run their daily business routine.
