As part of Air Niugini’s digital transformation journey, the national airline has implemented and launched a new system, Oracle Fusion Cloud Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP).
The ERP was launched early this week (08th April), across multiple departments providing more integrated and streamlined way to manage and report on the business.
This system is designed to modernize business processes, improve efficiency and enhance decision making across the airline, with real-time reporting.
Oracle Fusion ERP will provide a more efficient way to manage the airline’s human resources, payroll, finance and supply chain operations, replacing the current systems CHRIS21 and Epicor.
Air Niugini Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Gary Seddon said the airline’s transformation program launched in early 2023 signifies a commitment to a robust future, developing our people, our systems and our fleet.
Mr. Seddon said this comprehensive approach is aimed at ensuring Air Niugini’s sustainability in the aviation sector for another 50 years.
He said Air Niugini is an essential service provider in PNG, and they must be capable of delivering competent, viable air transport services.
“We recognize the critical need to measure our progress continuously by identifying areas for improvement to enhance our returns on investment and boost productivity and efficiency across all levels of operation.
To effectively manage this transformation, having access to accurate and timely information is essential. It empowers our management team to make informed, data-driven decisions that align with our strategic goals.
By focusing on measurable outcomes, we can better adapt to challenges, seize opportunities, and ultimately drive the success of Air Niugini into the future,” Mr. Seddon said.
The CEO acknowledged the efforts of everyone involved, from Air Niugini Finance, HR and IT teams led by Ms. Judy Kuk, Chief Financial Officer and Project Lead Mr. Santhosh Krishnan to our implementation partners at Mastek, Ramco and Oracle.
He said Oracle will deliver significant benefits including a more powerful and user-friendly platform for managing HR processes, payroll and employee data.
“The system provides a comprehensive and integrated financial management system to improve accuracy, efficiency and reporting, and provides tools to streamline procurement, inventory management and overall supply chain operations.
Oracle ERP is a cloud-based system and is used by airlines including Qantas, Air Asia, Qatar Airways and Virgin Australia,” Mr. Seddon said.
