ModusLink Corporation is advancing its operations with a shift to Oracle's cloud-based Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) and Warehouse Management (WM) solution, replacing its legacy SAP ERP system. This move, prompted by SAP's end-of-life for ECC 6.0 in December 2027, positions ModusLink as a data-driven logistics partner, enabling predictive capabilities and proactive client support through enhanced infrastructure and analytics.
The decision follows a thorough assessment of future-proof technologies, selecting Oracle for its superior cloud infrastructure, predictive analytics, and integration potential. This upgrade addresses the limitations of the aging SAP platform, which will lose support in 2027, ensuring ModusLink maintains operational continuity while embracing digital evolution. The two-year rollout includes meticulous planning to minimize risks, with parallel systems guaranteeing zero downtime for clients across global sites.
Oracle's platform delivers faster processing and heightened reliability, adapting dynamically to fluctuating business demands. Built-in analytics empower smarter supply chain decisions, from inventory optimization to demand forecasting. Enterprise-grade security protects sensitive data throughout operations, while seamless connectivity with third-party tools streamlines workflows, reducing silos and accelerating efficiency in areas like order fulfillment and customization.
ModusLink prioritizes transparency during the migration, with a specialized team tailoring processes for each client and location. Account Directors and Business Managers offer personalized guidance, complemented by milestone updates and testing phase notifications. “We are excited to embark on this transformation that will elevate our service capabilities, prepare our operations for the next wave of digital innovation, and lay the foundation for AI adoption,” said Fawaz Khalil, CEO at ModusLink. This investment underscores ModusLink's dedication to innovation and unwavering client satisfaction.
ModusLink's Oracle adoption not only resolves immediate technological needs but also establishes a resilient framework for intelligent supply chain solutions, fostering agility in the global marketplace and driving long-term value for clients in consumer electronics, communications, computing, software, and retail sectors.
