Allcargo Gati Powers Business Growth with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure: A Case Study in Digital Transformation
Oracle today announced that Allcargo Gati Limited, one of India’s leading express distribution and supply chain management companies, has successfully migrated its on-premises mission-critical Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system to Oracle Base Database Service on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). This strategic move has resulted in a 20% improvement in system performance and operational efficiency, empowering Allcargo Gati to meet the growing demands of India’s rapidly expanding logistics sector.
Modernizing IT Infrastructure for Scalability and Efficiency
Allcargo Gati provides comprehensive consultative logistics and end-to-end express distribution solutions for businesses of all sizes across sectors such as automotive, pharmaceuticals, consumer goods, and durables. With a fleet of over 9,000 vehicles operating across logistics parks and national highways, the company ensures seamless and timely deliveries across India. However, with India’s logistics market projected to reach USD $150 billion by FY28, Allcargo Gati recognized the need to modernize its IT infrastructure to capitalize on this growth.
The company faced challenges with its legacy ERP system, including limited scalability, high latency, and frequent outages. To address these issues, Allcargo Gati decided to migrate its mission-critical ERP system to Oracle Base Database Service on OCI. This decision was driven by OCI’s flexible, highly performant, and secure infrastructure, which provides built-in security, high availability, and disaster recovery capabilities.

We are already seeing significant business benefits with OCI, positioning us for success as we integrate new technologies like AI, machine learning, and data analytics. These advancements will empower our team to drive innovation, optimize operations, and strengthen our leadership in the logistics sector.”
