Wipro will support Morrisons to achieve the core objective of delivering effective planning, management and delivery of large scale systems and process change based on an Oracle ERP platform. Gary Barr, CIO at Morrisons, says: “This is more than a systems replacement programme. It is a business change programme enabled by the replacement of the existing IT systems, in order to support the continued and future growth of the business.”
Wipro Retail was chosen after extensive market testing and the retailer’s positive experience of working with them as part of the programme planning and scoping phase. As Phil Goodwin, programme director at Morrisons, explains: “When we looked at the Oracle implementation references, they all said that we should be speaking to Wipro Retail. We decided to shortlist them based on such strong feedback. During planning and scoping we allocated project streams to different potential partners. They impressed us most with their agility, quality of people and their cultural fit. We are confident that they have the capability to meet our future needs.”
