On December 15, 2014, at the company's head-office, Gemadept Corporation held the Kick-off Ceremony for Deployment of Oracle Procurement Software Solution. Sunshine Gimasys (SSG), Gemadept's companion in the project, is a company specialized in solution consultancy and deployment of Oracle software projects. SSG successfully deployed projects for large-scale enterprises such as Vinamilk, PVFCCo, Masan Group, Nutifood, etc.     

With the Oracle Procurement project, Gemadept will establish centralized management procedures on commodity and service procurement of Gemadept's subsidiaries through the software in order to save time, manpower and above all to save costs, improve operational efficiency of the Corporation.  The project is expected to be completed by December 31, 2015, in which the Procurement Administration and the Inventory Management modules will operate from May 2015; the Planning and Budgeting Management module will operate from September 2015. The modules will be integrated with Oracle Financials software being used by Gemadept since 2008.

As such, after the success of Oracle Financials software, this is the next step of Gemadept in its long-term plan for the application of information technology in the Corporation's management. It is expected that in the next phase from 2016, Gemadept will continue to deploy other management software modules of Oracle including Project Suite, Asset Tracking, HRMS, Payroll Management, etc.

By choosing the renowned software vendor and the professional project deployment consultant, Gemadept has proved its determination aiming at comprehensive business administration solutions through applying information technology. It is believed that this will be the key for Gemadept to better control all resources, minimize risks and costs which will build up the new image for GMD in the next development stage.
