Our capabilities

Streamline ERP management

Cognizant provides digital expertise in all leading enterprise resource planning (ERP) and supply chain management (SCM) packages. We help process manufacturing companies manage industry consolidation, global supply chain complexity and volatile commodity prices. Our expertise covers the entire spectrum from roadmap definition to design, implementation and maintenance of IT systems, as well as running back-office processes.

Our Chemical Industry Template enterprise solution is built on industry standards that can significantly cut lead time for chemical companies’ large-scale ERP rollouts.

Reduce your carbon footprint

To meet the ever-increasing demand for reducing the carbon footprint of process manufacturing, we provide tools and reports for critical systems including waste lifecycle management, energy management, Green IT, REACH compliance and global regulatory reporting.

We offer consulting and implementation expertise to make Green Plant a reality. Plus, our WasteTrace solution tracks industrial waste from generation through transportation and disposal. It also enables printing of labels, placards and various compliance reports.

Connect processes

We help process manufacturers manage capacity in an intelligent and cost-efficient manner, making use of the latest digital monitoring and management technologies. These are integrated with supply chain planning systems, as well.

The result is longer life for plant assets, lower maintenance costs and higher reliability of plant operations. It also helps reduce the need for manual intervention in potentially hazardous environments.
