Kancor Ingredients wins the PC Quest Award for Best IT Implementation

The Exports Benefits Management System(EBMS), developed at Kancor Ingredients has been awarded for the best IT Implementation in the SME Category in the PC Quest Awards for 2012.

The EBMS has been developed using SAP Platform and it consists of multiple Z-Reports and Dialogs. Kancor Ingredients has been awarded for innovative application of technology as well as for the high and clearly visible benefits arising out of the Exports Benefits Management System.

Internal IT department at Kancor Ingredients developed the EBMS in around 4-5 months of development time. Initial SAP Development took around 3 months and we started using it. Subsequently the system was enhanced as we went along.

There has been a clearly identified, recognised and universally accepted financial benefit arising out of the implementation of the Exports Benefits Management System. The high quality of the System Documentation and the timely tracking of the license dates has resulted in the reduction of the claim settlement time from 6-9 months earlier to 2-3 months now. 6 months of claims are approximately equal to INR 12 crores.

Kancor

The IT department at Kancor Ingredients has developed the EBMS taking into account the specific requirements of the Licensing Regime for Spices Industry. The solution fits the business scenario perfectly and there have been quite a few enquiries from similar companies who use SAP in the spices industry and are tracking licenses. By using this system, the manual effort is reduced significantly and overall execution efficiency increases.

In the Industry-specific segment of Spices, Kancor Ingredients is one of the foremost IT Enabled organisations. In fact Kancor is the first spice company to implement SAP in Kerala.

Jawed - The Chef

Sara’s Playschool had a Saturday Activity called Pappa Banao Dadi Ki Recipe. Father and Kid had to participate in this activity without any help from Mummy. We had to prepare a healthy and non-fried dish within 30 minutes. I and Sara made Pineapple Shahi Tukda and Fruit Salad. It was a runaway success with not even a small piece left afterwards.

Sara and Jawed Ready to start !

We wore paper aprons which were provided by the organisers. The getup included a small Chef Headgear as well.
