Global Real-time Financial Reporting with Oracle EBS at Packaging Manufacturer

Business Challenges

  • Global Delivery/Rollout - Different cultures and time zones (Brazil and Israel) made collaboration and project organization a key requirement to ensure success
  • Time Sensitive – Needed an aggressive timeline, needing to implement faster than any previous Oracle EBS roll out of manufacturing and inventory
  • Remote Location - Adding to the challenge was the fact that their factory was located in a remote area of Northeastern Brazil. It would take the team a full day to travel there

Solution

  • Oracle EBS - Replaced 3 Legacy Systems for Financials and Manufacturing
  • Hybrid Delivery Model - Scheduled critical path activities on-site at the factory while the bulk of the work would be delivered remotely from TRI/Peloton’s offices in Sao Paulo and customer’s HQ in Israel
  • Fastest EBS implementation in Brazil - All Oracle modules without Brazil localization impacts were assigned to the project team in Israel. Milestones were carefully managed to ensure adherence to the aggressive timeline

Impact

  • Real-time Financial Reporting - Global Finance team has access to real-time Financials in the region
  • Cost Savings - Hybrid delivery model saved $100K+ USD in consulting costs
