Overview:

Founded in 1942, Seiko Epson Corporation is a leader in imaging, robotics, precision machinery, and electronics. Seiko Epson wanted to standardize sourcing processes across the imaging products business line to reduce the cost of materials and consolidate sourcing channels and streamline procurement processes to reduce operational costs. The challenge was to standardize cost estimating tasks that were usually handled manually and enhance compliance, corporate governance, and social responsibilities. Seiko Epson streamlined and automated the purchasing process by implementing Oracle Advanced Procurement Release 12 as well as cut the cost of parts and materials for research and development.
