In today’s fast-paced business landscape, making informed decisions quickly is crucial for staying ahead of the competition. The improvements announced at Oracle CloudWorld for Oracle Fusion Data Intelligence focus on expansion and extension–both an expansion of key capabilities with the announcement of a new line-of-business intelligent applications and an extension of analysis through easier addition of new data sources. Fusion Data Intelligence has always combined core platform services with actual business data, prebuilt analytics, and AI/ML models, making it the most complete offering for business intelligence and analytics. Through new AI-powered productivity enhancements, tailored analytics for business units, and additional capabilities to support both strategic and tactical decision making, Oracle seeks to empower more organizations to make analytics-driven decisions
Intelligent Applications for HCM and SCM Analytics drive better decisions, faster
Oracle has updated its Oracle Fusion Data Intelligence platform with new intelligent applications for Oracle Fusion HCM and SCM Analytics. The alpha releases of People Leader Workbench and Supply Chain Command Center deliver on our expanded vision for Fusion Data Intelligence, with plans to introduce more industry-specific offerings in the future. By combining data, analytics, and AI, Oracle Fusion Data Intelligence provides deeper insights and speeds up decision-making, enabling businesses to act faster and make decisions based on actions recommended by AI.
People Leader Workbench for Oracle Cloud HCM
The People Leader Workbench is designed to help leaders across the organization make smarter talent decisions faster, driving better business and financial outcomes. It’s not just for HR professionals—it’s a comprehensive tool for all people leaders, managers, HR and finance partners use to collaborate on making mission-critical decisions as their everyday tool. By enabling organizations to adapt their talent strategies to changing business needs, the Workbench supports people management goal achievement across teams. People decisions are interconnected, and each choice can impact many areas. For example, closing job requisitions to reduce costs might lead to burnout and attrition, affecting overall business performance. The Workbench provides valuable insights through a People 360 model that integrates data from various HCM modules and beyond. With AI-driven solutions, it helps balance objectives such as reducing attrition, increasing diversity, managing spending, and improving business impact. Leaders can take direct actions within the Workbench or link to Cloud HCM to enhance retention, talent acquisition, and growth. Over time, the Workbench learns from these actions, enabling decision-making to be faster and more effective.
Supply Chain Command Center for Oracle Cloud SCM
The Supply Chain Command Center helps organizations respond quickly to changing demand, supply, and external market conditions by recommending intelligent actions across the supply chain network. Extensibility remains a key component of Supply Chain Command Center, just as it is for all Fusion Data Intelligence solutions, centralizing Fusion SCM information with other sources of internal and external data, allowing users to connect their supply chain data with that of 3rd party stakeholders—including logistics providers and carriers, as well as data sources related to geo-political events, weather events, and financial risk events. Pre-defined use cases enable a fast start, while recommended intelligent actions within the application can help supply chain professionals mitigate business risk and optimize supply chain efficiency, as well as identify inventory shortages and respond quickly to changing demand and market conditions. Supply Chain Command Center is a forward-looking solution that is with you every step of the way, helping supply chain leaders quickly detect issues, decide on the next best action, and execute efficiently all within a single intelligent application.
By expanding our offerings to include more industry-specific and cross-functional solutions, Oracle is demonstrating a commitment to delivering tailored analytics that address unique sector challenges while promoting cross-functional insights.
New enhanced reporting and AI-powered innovations
Other new features announced at Oracle CloudWorld include:
- Enhanced real-time reporting for faster insights
- Additional AI-powered models for more accurate predictions
- Native support for Salesforce CRM
- A Developer Assistant to help make extending Fusion Data Intelligence to third-party data sources easier than ever
Fusion Data Intelligence now offers both strategic, predictive analyses to guide the business as well as tactical analyses for streamlining day-to- day operations by accessing Oracle Transactional Business Intelligence (OTBI) subject areas and the latest data visualization capabilities from Oracle Analytics Cloud. Additionally, new pre-built machine learning models will be available for all four Fusion Data Intelligence pillars (HCM, ERP, CX, SCM), improving decision-making accuracy with a one-click interface for all consumers from data scientists to business users.
Extensibility has always been a major differentiator for Fusion Data Intelligence–the ability to take both Oracle and non-Oracle data sources and easily blend them together in a unified analytics solution gives our customers a holistic view of all of their enterprise data for a single source of truth. A native connection to Salesforce CRM, now generally available for Fusion Data Intelligence, stems from Oracle’s commitment to flexibility and insights for customers looking to achieve full Revenue Intelligence. Now, Oracle customers who are also Salesforce CRM users can more easily blend CRM data with Marketing, Service, Subscription, and Quotes data from Fusion Applications for analysis, all while reducing complexity and ensuring a consistent, accurate view of business-critical information.
The addition of a new AI-powered Developer Assistant for Fusion Data Intelligence makes adding even more 3rd party data sources easier than ever and surfaces a practical application of AI for business. The Developer Assistant requires users to define the metrics and data dimensions to be measured, then acts as a wizard, guiding users through the steps needed to access data, thus reducing workload and shortening time-to-value.
With Oracle Fusion Data Intelligence, businesses can finally break free from the constraints of traditional analytics and benefit from the power of AI-driven insights within their day-to-day business processes. Make informed decisions faster, drive improved business outcomes, and stay ahead of the competition with Fusion Data Intelligence.
