ERP Infrastructure Modernization for a Leading Shipping Enterprise
Upon being reliant on 15-year-old systems for critical business processes, a leading shipbuilding company in India found itself in a situation where growth was limited and security risks had become impossible to ignore. As a result, Orbit Techsol worked with the company to design and implement an entire ERP infrastructure modernization program with three primary goals – scalability, high-performance and security. The outcome of the transformation was that the enterprise was able to process transactions in a shorter amount of time, have a more reliable system, and have a digital environment capable of preparing the enterprise for future growth. By strengthening their cybersecurity and infrastructure, the company was able to significantly increase the speed towards achieving Secure ERP Transformation, thus achieving continuous operational excellence.

Client Background
The enterprise was established by the Indian Government and has built numerous ships since ages. Unfortunately, the legacy ERP solution that they were using was at least 15 years old; therefore, it has been unable to keep pace with the ever-increasing operational and business demands placed upon them. The existing infrastructure creates a huge bottleneck in performance and scalability while relying heavily on equipment and technology that are both very old and receive minimal support from vendors. As such, the Indian Government Shipbuilding Company initiated a strategic ERP Infrastructure Modernization effort to create an environment that is both secure and scalable while being able to be digitally agile enough to support future capacity growth.
The Challenge
- 15-year-old ERP application suffering from limited vendor support.
- The existing IT infrastructure is unable to support modern ERP requirements.
- Frequent performance lags affect daily operations and project timelines.
- Higher cybersecurity risks due to outdated systems.

With the establishment of a flexible, future-ready IT ecosystem, the company is now positioned to adopt modern ERP technologies, enhance collaboration between features, and promote the sustained innovative effort throughout the maritime and shipbuilding industries. Additionally, following the upgrade, the company’s confidence in its capacity to grow digitally, adaptively, and sustainably has significantly increased.
