DXC Technology’s New Cloud ERP Offering Set to Transform the Beverage Industry

News Release -- July 23, 2019

ADELAIDE, Australia, 23 July 2019 — DXC Technology (NYSE: DXC) today unveiled DXC Red Beverage 4.0, the only enterprise-grade, preconfigured grape-to-glass technology solution for winemaking in the world, powered by Oracle Cloud. The new offering recognises the competitiveness of the beverage industry and the need for an integrated cloud-based enterprise resource planning (ERP) and supply chain solution,

DXC Red Beverage 4.0, part of DXC Red Rock’s Red Solutions, is optimised to provide the capabilities that wine and beverage companies require today, including the ability to closely monitor and manage growers and supply chains, along with functionality to capture, manage and retain recipes. Functions such as process maps, integrations, data migrations, mobile apps, forms, reports, legislative requirements and master data are factored in to give organisations maximum ERP agility and capability while minimising costs.

Making the announcement during the 17th Australian Wine Industry Technical Conference in Adelaide, Richard James, practice director, DXC Red Rock, said, “Through our experience in the industry with multiple wineries and Oracle solutions, we found companies with costly, on-premise legacy ERP systems were being left behind and those adopting flexible ERP solutions that enable collaboration and innovation were emerging as market leaders. To bridge the gap, we created a unique solution in Red Beverage 4.0, which provides immediate access to a host of enhanced ERP functionalities on Oracle Cloud and improves information sharing and decision making across the organisation.”

“It’s amazing having instant access to all the data for the end-to-end winemaking process in one integrated system,” said Paul Kassebaum, senior vice president, operations and winemaking, Arterra Wines Canada. “Previously, this would take many people days to provide a consolidated view of the information, pulling data from separate ERP and wine systems.”

As a ready-to-go solution, DXC Red Beverage 4.0 implementations typically take less than half the time of traditional ERP system implementations with all the benefits of a cloud-based solution.
