Case Study: a leading Indian pharmaceutical company achieves 100% contract compliance and cost savings with Wipro’s SAP Ariba solution

How a pharma major transformed its procurement function

A leading Indian pharmaceutical company faced procurement challenges including a limited supplier base leading to higher material costs, inefficient manual supplier evaluations, and a lack of contract compliance due to no automated system. To address this, they partnered with Wipro to implement the SAP Ariba upstream procurement solution.

Wipro implemented the SAP Ariba modules for sourcing, contract management, and supplier information and performance management. This solution delivered significant results, including total savings of INR 4.4 crore within the first three months and 100% contract compliance. Wipro's implementation enabled access to a global supplier base, automated key processes, and substantially improved product profitability for the client.
