CLIENT SNAPSHOT

Business Overview

The client is one of India’s leading electrical solutions manufacturing companies, with 240M+ units of annual production capacity and 35+ warehouses nationwide. It runs Oracle EBS as its ERP and moved from legacy WMS to Oracle Cloud WMS with OIC as its integration layer.

Business Challenges

As throughput and the distributor network grew, manual warehouse processes could no longer protect inventory integrity or keep fulfillment reliable

Key issues included

Counterfeit & Duplicate Inventory

Counterfeit and duplicate items undermining inventory accuracy, traceability, and customer trust.

Manual Checks, Late Detection

Serial number checks, document verification, and audits were entirely manual, no real-time detection at scale.

Multi-Level Serials at Volume

Multi-level serial numbers on a custom QR tracking system; standard scan-by-scan LPN handling couldn't keep up with volumes without duplicating inventory.

Limited Stock Visibility

Limited stock visibility driving stockouts, excess inventory, and unreliable availability.

Dispatch Errors

Dispatch errors generating returns, logistics costs, and service delays.

WMS-ERP Data Mismatch

Critical transactions between EBS and WMS required near real-time flow; with configuration-only changes to WMS.

ITOrizon Solution

The client needed warehouse modernization that wouldn’t create ERP technical debt. ITOrizon built the entire solution within the existing Oracle stack; OIC as the integration layer, VBCS for custom scan workflows, keeping every change configuration-based and upgrade-safe. No new platforms. No ERP modifications.

01 QR-Driven Inventory Identity

Custom VBCS applications use standard WMS REST APIs to turn a single QR scan into a validated, traceable LPN in WMS. Wrong scans are flagged at the point of capture, and the process supports the client’s multi-level packaging model.

VALUE Faster, cleaner receiving, wrong scans caught at the point of capture, and counterfeit and duplicate items kept out of stock.

02 Serial Traceability Without Inventory Duplication

WMS carries the top-level serial while the full parent–child serial hierarchy stays retrievable on demand. Each serial keeps a complete history from receipt to shipment, supporting recalls, returns, and counterfeit checks.

VALUE Complete serial history from receipt to shipment, faster recalls and returns, and accurate counts with no inflated inventory.

03 Event-Driven EBS-OIC-OCWMS Integration

ITOrizon replaced the usual batch and staging-table pattern with the OIC EBS Adapter, so critical transactions flow between EBS and WMS in near real time. Master data stays on batch. Failures are monitored and retried per transaction.

VALUE Near real-time stock visibility across EBS and WMS, fewer reconciliation gaps, and no ERP technical debt.

04 AI-Driven Cycle Counting

Replaces fixed-schedule manual audits with dynamic count triggers based on inventory movement patterns.

VALUE Counts focused where inventory actually moves, less audit effort, and accuracy sustained between counts.

Results delivered

Across all four workstreams, manual checks became automatic ones — and planners got a single, real-time source of truth inside OTM.

100%

Compliance validation automated — a 15-minute manual portal check is now a single click in OTM, completed in under a minute.

LIVE

Vehicle location, shipment milestones, and transportation status now visible inside OTM through FleetX, replacing phone-call status checks.

100%

Driver assignments, trip updates, and execution milestones now sync automatically between Ilogis and OTM — no manual status reporting.

100%

Booking data flows automatically from CargoeS Runner into OTM, removing manual entry and reconciliation work.

100%

Container, gate, and terminal milestones now exchange automatically between Elogisol and OTM, closing the terminal-to-execution visibility gap.

3–6 MO

Time to deploy each integration — a fast path from manual, siloed processes to one connected view inside OTM.

Results Delivered

WHAT CHANGED	BEFORE	AFTER
Inventory accuracy	×Manual checks, unreliable stock counts, no real-time detection	✓99.91% accuracy, cycle counts triggered dynamically by inventory movement, replacing fixed-schedule audits
Product traceability	×Serialization ended at manufacturing	✓Serial-level tracking from receipt to shipment
Counterfeit and duplicate control	×Manual serial checks and audits	✓QR-based identity with wrong-scan detection and full serial history
Inventory visibility	×Manual tracking, slow to react	✓Inventory transactions in WMS reflected in EBS within 60 seconds; critical order and shipment events in near real time
Order fulfillment	×Unreliable availability at order time	✓OTIF KPI met within two weeks of go-live
