Case Study: Abdelhadi Al-Qahtani and Sons Beverage Industry achieves faster shipping, 33% sales growth, and global business efficiency with Oracle E-Business Suite and Oracle SPARC

Abdelhadi Al-Qahtani and Sons Beverage Industry (AQS) increases shipping, sales and global business efficiency with application server upgrade

Abdelhadi Al-Qahtani and Sons Beverage Industry (AQS) is a Dammam‑based Pepsi franchised bottler operating globally. Facing rapid growth, AQS needed to replace disparate legacy applications and hardware with a single integrated ERP to centralize finance, HR, manufacturing and supply chain processes, reduce inventory and barcode handling inefficiencies, speed order fulfilment, and give sales real‑time visibility across markets.

Working with Evosys, AQS deployed Oracle E‑Business Suite 12.1.3 on SPARC T5‑2 servers with Oracle Solaris 11 and Pillar Axiom storage to automate and centralize processes. The upgrade cut order entry and maintenance time by 10%, reduced manual order‑management effort by 30%, sped shipping execution by 33% (with a 50% jump in shipping volume on day one), cut barcode development time 77%, improved application performance and global visibility, and drove a 33% increase in component‑segmented sales—all delivered in a five‑month, on‑time, on‑budget rollout.
