Fibre2fashion: What is normally the adoption period for SAP solution for a mid size textile company that is having its own in-house developed software and how easily can the transition take place?
Mr Mohapatra: For a midsize textile company, 8 to 12 weeks is easily possible with a best practice adoption approach. The advantage for a mid-sized textile company having its own in-house developed software is that they are process driven & used to working in a systemic manner to some extent. However with a standard solution like SAP coming in, some un-learning is envisaged. This transition can be effectively handled by taking support from the Top Management.

Fibre2fashion: Any new trends emerging within the textile industries by way of adopting SAP solutions?
Mr Mohapatra: Textile industry players are looking forward for extensions beyond India, are adopting online portal based solution for collaboration and are increasingly becoming cost effective in the market; post the adoption of SAP solution.

Fibre2fashion: What is the SAP service network in India and what innovative techniques have been integrated to satisfy your prestigious clients particularly from the textile sector?
Mr Mohapatra: The implementation methodology of SAP empowers the client's internal teams to take care and sustain the SAP deployment. Further, SAP has set up a complete ecosystem of service network which includes the 24X7 SAP global support, SAP certified implementation & support partners for Textile industries, SAP education for detailed courses on SAP BAiO. Together, the service network supports about 5000+ customers in India successfully.

Fibre2fashion: As part of awareness what measures has your company taken to highlight the importance of ERP Solutions?
Mr Mohapatra: SAP conducts several events which are industry, domain and region specific every month to ensure that the industry players are aware what ERP solutions can add value to their business. SAP also encourages user communities like INDUS which comprises of existing customers in India who share their experience and understanding. The fact is, like Xerox is synonymous for copier, SAP is for ERP. We have generated a significant recall value with the help of a robust product, vast ecosystem and continuous innovation.
