Introduction
When you think of opulence in Indian fashion, one name stands out: Sabyasachi Mukherjee. With designs that merge tradition with contemporary finesse, his label has become a household name among India’s elite and fashion connoisseurs globally. But as the brand grew in demand and reach, it faced a different kind of challenge—outdated technology and operational inefficiencies that couldn’t keep up with its creative excellence.
About Sabyasachi Mukherjee
From Kolkata to the Global Stage
Sabyasachi Mukherjee started his journey in 1999, selling his first designer outfits from a modest workshop in Kolkata. Fast forward to today, and his creations are worn by global icons, celebrities, and brides looking for timeless elegance.
Building an Iconic Indian Fashion Empire
His designs—whether it’s a richly embroidered lehenga or an antique-style necklace—are synonymous with Indian luxury couture. But behind the glits and glamour lies a robust business engine that needed tuning.
Worldwide Brand Presence
Sabyasachi isn’t just an Indian designer anymore. His brand caters to clients across the globe, and such a vast presence comes with its own set of operational hurdles.
The Core Challenges
Despite its success, Sabyasachi’s backend operations were struggling. Let’s break it down:
Too Many Customisations, Not Enough Agility
The brand had made several customisations over time to meet new demands. But instead of adding value, these changes began slowing things down.
Outdated Technology
Their legacy systems couldn’t handle the pace of modern retail—be it inventory tracking, order processing, or financial oversight.
Low Productivity Due to Manual Work
A lot of work—sales reporting, stock updates, replenishment—was still manual, consuming time and increasing the risk of error.
Duplicate Data Everywhere
With disconnected systems came duplicate entries. This not only slowed down the team but also affected accuracy and customer service.
Global Operations, Local Issues
Operating across continents with different inventory needs, customer expectations, and compliance requirements was overwhelming without a unified view.
Need for Automation and Speed
To match the pace of global fashion retail, the business needed fast, accurate, and automated processes—from procurement to production to sales.
Aligning Business Strategy with Execution
There was a clear gap between the brand’s big-picture vision and the on-ground execution. That’s where digital transformation was critical.
