Al Shirawi Group taps emitac to optimize its IT infrastructure
May 02, 2007
From it inception in 1971 as a trading and contracting company, Oasis Investment Company's LLC (A holding company of Al Shirawi group), scope has broadened to encompass a whole cross-section of products, services and industries, while never forgetting its traditional strengths in trading. The group has the unique distinction of having tie- ups with more than 100 multinational groups for technical licensing, distribution, servicing or trade representation. OIC offers commitment beyond commercial norms, reflecting its pride and corporate responsibility.
emitac is involved in the project from a very initial stage and will be handling the entire IT infrastructure implementation right from the initial design and software configuration through installation and commissioning. emitac will also be project managing this job to ensure customer satisfaction – as a part of continuing commitment from emitac towards Al shirawi.
“We reviewed alternative sources However, emitac’s proposal clearly stood out with their in-house expertise, and experience in handling similar projects. Overall, compared to competing solution providers, emitac was one step above.”- says Mr. M.N. Chaturvedi, Director IT of Oasis Investment Group companies. emitac not only has the largest knowledge base on HP products, but also has excellent delivery and support model which made me choose emitac – he adds. Reliability, scalability and stability were the other factors that forced us to choose HP and emitac for this project. He continues.
“We are extremely proud to sign up with one of the leading conglomerate in UAE for such a mission critical ERP project spanning 30 companies with 800-1000 users.” – says Lalit Motwani – Sales and Marketing Director – emitac. Our continuous effort to meet customer driven SLA agreements and design oriented approach is the key to our success. – He adds.
For Al Shirawi the main aim was to consolidate all their processes like the Finance, Logistics, Inventory, Sales, and Distribution etc.. across the whole group in OIC, through an ERP solution to make it more viable, efficient and productive. Their biggest challenge was to provide uninterrupted service to their users and also reduce downtime.
“For us as emitac, customer’s need was the most important. We did not want to sell products; we believe in and wanted to build a relationship by understanding their needs precisely and advising them of the right solution and the right fit for the organization in a most cost effective way. For us, Al Shirawi Group represents an organization that is setting standards in the region with its strategy and we are delighted to be a part of it”. - Says Suhail Khan – Senior Account Manager – Private sector, emitac.
