The Tirupur Exporter's Association, through the setting up of a special purpose vehicle called G-Tech Info Solutions , said it is adopting Wipro's next generation enterprise resource planning (ERP) solution for all manufacturing units in the clusters.

Exporters in Tirupur's over $2-billion knitwear industry will now share a common software platform on pay-as-you-go basis, as they seek to bring down operational costs and compete effectively with rivals from Bangladesh and China.
