Case Study: Laxmi Organic Industries Ltd. achieves 50% faster procurement cycles and integrated spend visibility with SAP Ariba

Laxmi Freeing Procurement Teams to Redefine Specialty Chemicals with SAP Ariba Sourcing

Laxmi Organic Industries Ltd., a Mumbai-based specialty chemicals manufacturer (700 employees, ~Rs 3 billion revenue), was hampered by manual, email-based procurement, siloed direct and indirect spend, and limited price-comparison and record-keeping—constraints that threatened its ability to scale and support growth.

Working with InfraBeat, Laxmi implemented SAP Ariba Sourcing and SAP Business Network Commerce Automation integrated with SAP S/4HANA to consolidate spend and automate procurement. The solution improved visibility and compliance, sped decision-making, cut procurement cycle time by 50%, routed >90% of spend through SAP Ariba, reduced reverse-auction costs by 3%, and freed the procurement team to focus on strategic, value-added work.
