25. BRANDIX CASE
STUDY
Brandix accelerates growth and international
expansion with Infor M3
Brandix, the largest employer in Sri Lanka’s export
industry and declared “Exporter of the Year” at
the country’s 2018/2019 Presidential Export
Award ceremony, operates apparel
manufacturing units in Sri Lanka, India,
Bangladesh, Haiti, and Cambodia. On a journey to
deliver Inspired Solutions at every point of its
operations, Brandix continues to develop,
manufacture, and market end-to-end apparel
solutions to world-renowned brands,
26. Accelerated
growth and
expansion
When Brandix first selected Infor® as a partner in
2007, the company’s apparel manufacturing was
primarily taking place in Sri Lanka. Brandix replaced a
“homegrown” ERP system with Infor M3, vastly
improving visibility and financial control throughout
the business—while also empowering senior
management to better manage more complex,
international business processes. This enabled Brandix
to grow at a much faster rate, with the company
expanding its business to India and Bangladesh,
tripling revenue, and facilitating a tenfold increase in
customer purchase orders. “We used to receive a
smaller set of orders with larger volumes, but it has
drastically changed to a much larger number of
smaller order volumes
27. Shift from
apparel
manufacturing
to total
solutions
service
provider
According to Karunakaran, “At Brandix India
Apparel City (BIAC), we have the entire supply
chain ‘under one roof,’ so to speak. We have
fabric mills and accessory suppliers right around
the corner, so when a customer places an order,
we don’t require any additional lead time for
transporting the raw material to the plant. You
get the order, you sew it, package it, and ship it.
The value of having all supply chain partners in
one location enables us to provide faster
solutions to our customers.”
28. Building a
foundation for
the future
The flexibility of Infor M3 allowed Brandix to
adjust its business model in response to 2020’s
global pandemic. “While a lot of orders were
cancelled due to COVID-19, we were able to
quickly turn around production to produce
personal protective equipment (PPE) like face
masks and gowns in the plants that had spare
capacity,” explains Karunakaran.
33. MAJOR ISSUES
• Head Office had difficulties in grasping the
business situation in Japan
• Miscommunication between Head Office and
Japan due to different categorization of product
codes and customer segmentation
• Japan’s system did not meet with internal
control standards required by the Head Office
34. KEY ACHIVMENTS
Accomplished global integration by streamlining business processes
through an SAP AFS-based Head Office system
Accommodated Japan-unique business processes and practices by
linking with external systems such as logistics, stores, etc.
Real-time, global integration of management information
Improved corporate governance through a standardized business
process on a global SAP platform
Enhanced global communication by introducing common
terminology for products and customers
