Square Pharmaceuticals Ltd. is the leading pharmaceutical company in Bangladesh that was founded in 1958. It has a market share of about 15% and annual sales of over $90 million. Previously, Square faced difficulties meeting market demand and sharing information between departments due to a lack of integration. To address these issues, Square developed its own ERP system called ConSIL. ConSIL integrated all of Square's departments including production, sales, procurement, and quality control. This allows Square to better forecast demand, track materials, ensure compliance, and respond quickly to customers. The ERP system provides benefits like reduced costs, faster product development, and end-to-end traceability.

Before using ERP, it was difficult to meet the demand of the
market, as there was no integration with the sales & marketing
department to others like, commercial, production,

fulfill the goal to be the market leader. But after using ERP
they solve the problem. It was difficult to forecast the demand
of production, information were not available to all the related
department, so they had to face lot of difficulties.
