Announcement Companies & Industry
Last Updated : Feb 06 2013 | 5:51 AM IST


Bangalore, INDIA, September 14, 2006- Bharti Airtel today announced the
completion of its strategic implementation of Oracle Financials and Oracle Human
Resources Management systems (HRMS). This will provide Bharti Airtel with
real-time financial and human resources information as well as give the
organization higher operational efficiency, along with better visibility and
enhanced management over its financial and HR operations.  This implementation
was a part of the strategic business consolidation undertaken by the
organization to integrate the processes and systems of its different business
units under 'One Airtel'. The Bharti Airtel IT strategy is aligned with the
organization's business for the delivery of 'One Airtel' through two major focus
areas ? 'BIZ' and 'INT' ? that are part of Bharti Airtel's unique "IT Truck"
model.  The 'BIZ' area is focused on customer facing systems capabilities while
the 'INT' area is focused on organization and internal facing systems
capabilities. The Oracle single instance deployment is part of the INT focus
area.Dr. Jai Menon, Director ? IT & Innovation, Bharti Airtel said, "Last
October, a manifesto for change was created at Bharti Airtel. The first step in
this direction came with the integrated structure under One Airtel, spearheading
all aspects of our telecom business in India.  Our primary aim in IT was to
standardize operations across the different strategic business units of the
company. We set about completing this mission along with IBM,our strategic
partner in IT. The first stage has been completed by leveraging uniform business
processes through an integrated finance and HR system. The next phase is in
progress to implement supply chain and learning management software systems
using Oracle Applications."  "The Oracle Financials and HR implementations are
the latest Oracle Applications deployed at Bharti Airtel. The new,
enterprise-wide, single instance consolidates four separate financial and HR
systems that were earlier used in the organization. This provides Bharti Airtel
with real-time information enabling better visibility and control of our
business operations," Dr. Menon added.  Mr Ash Khalek, Vice President, Service
Industries, APAC, Oracle said,"Oracle is proud to be associated with Bharti
Airtel, one of the most innovative telecom operators in the APAC region. Bharti
Airtel recognises the value Oracle brings with its full stack of telecom
specific business applications and has adopted Oracle's financials, procurement,
human resource management, customer relationship management applications and the
Oracle technology platform."  The implementation of Oracle Financials and HRMS
was started in 2005. As Bharti Airtel's strategic IT partner, IBM played an
instrumental role in managing and executing the project from both a hardware and
software perspective. The end-to-end implementation was completed in eight
months. The project has been successful in achieving synergies of processes and
in optimizing operational efficiencies across the telecom business units. Some
of the other benefits achieved with Oracle single instance (Financials and HRMS)
include:  · Integrated system for Financials, HRMS and Learning Management
System thereby providing a uniform technology advantage  · This ensures data
integrity, standardization in creating and maintaining organization structure,
processes, consolidation of financials,people information and competencies
management  · Single chart of accounts with automated real-time consolidation of
financial results. The organization had to deal with three different charts of
account in the past before the implementation of the Oracle Financials system.
 · Single source of information for all financials with audit trails. This helps
the organization address regulatory requirements  · Real time access to
information for reporting requirement  · Scalability of IT system and reduced
total cost of ownership for IT systems  Oracle's leadership in the global
