The move will allow Sanepar to improve business processes, accelerate decision-making and deploy high-performance technology in an evolving market under Brazil’s new legal framework
Wipro Limited, a leading global information technology, consulting and business process services company, announced that it has been engaged by Sanepar (Paraná Sanitation Company) to lead the process of deploying a business management solution in the cloud, resulting in a significant acceleration of its digital transformation, in partnership with Oracle. Under the agreement, Wipro will lead the migration of Sanepar’s Back Office operations to Oracle Cloud Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP).
The move to the cloud will provide Sanepar with accurate, real-time insights into its business processes, accelerate decision-making and improve customer service in a rapidly evolving market environment under the new legal framework. The new Basic Sanitation Legal Framework in Brazil (Bill 4162/2019) is designed to expand the reach of water and sanitation services to at least 90 percent of all Brazilian households by the year 2033.
