Case Study: Y‑Telecom achieves 40% faster financial close and 50% shorter procurement cycles with Oracle E‑Business Suite

Y-Telecom Closes Books 40% Faster, Cuts Procurement Cycles by 50%, and Sustains Year-on-Year Growth of 5% to 10%

Y‑Telecom, a Sana’a‑based mobile operator with about 400 employees and rapid subscriber growth, needed to sustain 5–10% year‑on‑year revenue increases while improving timeliness of statutory reporting, gaining near‑real‑time visibility into KPIs, and increasing back‑office efficiency (financials, procurement, inventory, HR) — all without adding headcount.

Y‑Telecom implemented Oracle E‑Business Suite Release 12.1.3, integrated with its billing system and deployed Oracle Financials, iProcurement and self‑service HR with help from Oracle CEP and partner Qemmah in a 10‑month roll‑out. The automated, integrated solution cut month‑end close times by 40% (15→9 days), halved procurement cycles (20→10 days), reduced paperwork by ~60%, sped external audits (3→1 month), delivered near‑real‑time management reporting, sustained 5–10% annual growth without extra staff, and positioned the company for a three‑year ROI and scalable expansion.
