29 May, 2008: Blue Star Infotech (BSI), a leading provider of IT Solutions and Services in the Indian market and an Oracle Certified Partner, announced today that it has successfully implemented the Oracle E-Business Suite Release 11i for Excel Industries Ltd.

BSI completed the implementation within six and half months as per the stipulated time frames and enabled Excel Industries to implement a robust integrated system across its Head Office, 4 plants, and depots.

According to Mr. Potdar, Executive Director, Excel Industries Limited:- "Excel selected the Oracle solution looking at its strong functionality in Process Manufacturing, Distribution and Financials. The objective of the implementation program entitled “Project Nishchay” was to integrate the widely scattered operations of the Company and to bring them under a unified best practices driven solution. We selected Blue Star Infotech to implement the solution based on their di verse experience in implementing and managing ERP solutions across an array of manufacturing typologies and their vast repository of Oracle implementation artifacts. Oracle Manufacturing, Oracle Purchasing, Oracle Order Management and Oracle Financials were implemented by Blue Star Infotech in the stipulated time. The implementation phase is now over and the process of stabilization is on and the new way of working has resulted in bringing increased discipline and standardization of business processes. Post stabilization, this will surely create a platform for building on the best practices to leverage information for decision making."

According to Satish Gaonkar, Vice President, Consulting Services Practice of BSI :- “Our consistent track record of successfully implementing the Oracle E-Business Suite for a number of leading manufacturing and services companies in India such as The Indian Card Clothing Co. and Privi Organics enables us to offer a comprehensive and attractive value proposition to our customers and exceed their expectations post-implementation. Our best-practices-based implementation methodologies coupled with our strong relationship with Oracle significantly reduce the risks associated with large system implementations”.
