Mobile enabling ERP software offers businesses competitive
advantage, says Bileeta
In today’s fast paced lifestyle, businesses, organizations and
individuals fight to stay ahead of the game. For many of them, the
advantages of timely and accurate information at any given time are
crucial and they recognize that Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP)
solutions are one of the key components to their success.
In the forefront of catering to this growing market is Sri Lankan ERP
solutions provider Bileeta. With considerable clout in the local and
global ERP scenario, Bileeta has been focusing on enabling ERP
functionalities on mobile devices to provide features to end users
through dashboards and Key Performance Indicators (KPIs).
Sanji De Silva, Chief Executive Officer at Bileeta said, “We want to
offer a greater level of convenience for users to gain the business
benefits out of the ERP solution. As such, the money spent on an ERP
will become an investment rather than just a cost. The convenience to be
offered will enable them to be closely connected to the business through
alerts on mobiles, dashboards and features to conduct transactions even
they are physically away from office.
For example, a Financial Controller can provide temporary credit
approval for a customer by looking at the customer creditworthiness
merely through a few clicks on a mobile. We have already launched a beta
version of these features and also secured a foreign contract that
requires a higher degree of features on mobile devices.”
With R&D as a core part of its corporate strategy, Bileeta has been
enabling ERP functionality on mobile services. According to Sanka
Weerasinghe, COO of Bileeta, “Enabling the ERP features on a mobile
devices required great deal of R&D from the point of deciding the scope
of features, to amount of information, and also to providing the
features in the most user friendly manner.
For that, we have been constantly conducting research and development
to empower our ERP to ensure more convenience for our end user.”
As mobility becomes more and more prevalent in the workplace,
organizations should choose a system that can scale with their business
and also have the capability and flexibility to integrate with new
technology solutions.
Weerasinghe says that while enterprise solutions were mainly focused
towards offering features to sales teams who are away from the offices.
“We want to offer features to all key stake holders of a company to
perform tasks even when they are away. This will give them an edge when
it comes to smarter business practices,” he added.
Bileeta has stringent measures in place to train, monitor and
appraise its employees incorporating the four tenets of competency,
commitment, communication and cost whilst firmly believing that the
correct blend of these key elements is the main ingredient for the
growth of the company and its staff.
During 2012, Bileeta achieved a 200 percent growth rate in its
medium-scale client base with the highest recorded in the sales and
distribution vertical due to the immediate benefits an ERP can bring
into a company’s sales process. |
