By Kiyoshi J. Berman ZILLIONe last week launched Microsoft Dynamics AX in Sri Lanka in partnership with Godrej InfoTech. ZILLIONe is one of Sri Lanka’s pioneer business solutions providers. Its dominance in the Sri Lankan market, together with Godrej InfoTech’s expertise, offers Sri Lankan businesses the opportunity to take their IT systems to the next level with Microsoft Dynamics AX. Members from the partnering organisations who addressed the gathering were Thushitha Kularatne, General Manager at Zillione Business Solutions; Ashish Pandey, APAC Head (Sr.GM)-Sales & Marketing at Godrej InfoTech; Ajay Pimparkar, CEO at Godrej InfoTech; Suresh Tharmarajah, Chairman and Chief Executive Director at ZILLIONe; Bertrand Launay, Vice President Sales, Marketing, Services and Support at Microsoft Asia; Imran Vilcassim, the Country Manager for Microsoft, Sri Lanka and Sivarajah Luxshumyraj, ‎Senior Manager at ZILLIONe Business Solutions. Microsoft Dynamics AX is a business solution that supports both operational and administrative processors of large organisations. The single solution comes with in-built localisation features for 36 countries. With a specialised focus on manufacturing, retail, service industries and public sector, Microsoft Dynamics AX includes capabilities such as financial management, manufacturing, business intelligence and reporting, supply chain management and human capital management. ZILLIONe is one of Sri Lanka’s premier business solution providers and has 35 years of heritage with over 400 customer installations across 10 countries. The tie up with Godrej InfoTech is one of the latest achievements in their portfolio of success out of the many milestones gathered throughout their journey of excellence. ZILLIONe offers services in the areas of Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), Customer Relationship Management (CRM), Human Resource Management (HRM), Business Intelligence (BI), Software Development, industry specific solutions, Application Integration and Process Automation. “Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) is a companywide integrated software solution that links all the divisions and functions of the company regardless of the size or industry and streamlines all processes such as manufacturing, customer relationship management, finance and so on. ZILLIONe has over 20 years of experience in implementing ERP systems and has successfully completed over 200 ERP projects in Sri Lanka and overseas. While ZILLIONe presently has an ERP portfolio, our current solutions don’t really cater to the needs of the large complex organisations. We see some great opportunities in the market as well as in our own client base for an advance ERP solution. Microsoft Dynamics AX, ideally fits into that space,” Chairman and Chief Executive Director at ZILLIONe, Suresh Tharmarajah, said. Expressing his view on the strategic partnership, he said: “This is quite a historical day on which two of the South Asian pioneer IT companies join hands to provide the booming Sri Lankan market with one of world’s best total ERP solutions, which is Microsoft Dynamics AX. As a company which has been the country’s pioneer business solution provider for over 35 years, ZILLIONe takes a lot of pride in partnering with a renowned company like Godrej InfoTech, India. Without any doubt, the Sri Lankan business entities will benefit from this partnership to a great extent. ZILLIONe’s local expertise combined with Godrej InfoTech’s expertise will act as a success formula for our clients in the future.” Godrej InfoTech Ltd, a subsidiary of Godrej and Boyce mfg. Co. Ltd, is one of the holding companies within the $ 4.1 billion Godrej Group which is positioned in the market today as one of the most renowned IT companies in India. Godrej InfoTech has been providing IT solutions across different industry verticals since 1971. APAC Head (Sr.GM)-Sales & Marketing at Godrej InfoTech, Ashish Pandey, briefly spoke about the status the Godrej group, which is over 115 years old, has gained globally. He further displayed a promising list of awards achieved by Godrej InfoTech while emphasising its status as a Microsoft Gold Certified Partner.
