We believe every cloud implementation is an opportunity to transform and reimagine your people, processes, and technology. Your business will be different on Oracle Cloud, and we believe it will be better. What that change looks like begins with alignment around your vision of the future state: What will success look like for you in the cloud?
Whether your goals are to close the books faster, transform your employee experience, improve customer interactions, or enhance your supply chain operations, every customer seeks to balance scope, value, and risk as they architect the path forward. Oracle offers all North America customers Delivery Confidence, a complimentary framework that captures the leading practices for Oracle Cloud application delivery, cultivated from delivering thousands of successful cloud implementations.
But, what if you need more than a framework? As the consulting arm of Oracle, we’ve found that customers have benefitted greatly from our point of view when implementing with their chosen partner.
Introducing Oracle Cloud Advisory Services from Oracle Consulting
Oracle Consulting’s Cloud Advisory Services are designed to help support you and your implementation partner as you journey to the cloud by proactively identifying potential risks before they become issues, keeping cloud projects on track, and progressing with speed.
We advise on governance, solution design & architecture, and change & transformation activities to help you meet the defined goals of your implementation project, as well as enable your organization to realize the full value of its cloud transformation.
By validating key capabilities, we advise in moments that matter to drive delivery success, reduce risk, and improve overall solution satisfaction.
What does success look like? Here are a few real-life examples:
- Driving delivery success: A premier energy provider underwent a divestiture, splitting into two separate entities requiring their own instances of Oracle ERP Cloud. The customer selected a leading, Big-4 Accounting delivery partner to lead the project, but turned to Oracle Consulting’s Cloud Advisory support for direct Oracle expertise. Our insight gave them an Oracle point of view that impacted project strategy, design, and architecture, leading to a successful, on-time, on-budget implementation.
- Improved solution satisfaction with reduced risk: A healthcare organization providing virtual doctor support experienced rapid growth during the pandemic, necessitating a significant overhaul of their ERP and EPM systems. With many patients relying on their support and a leading global delivery partner at the helm of their cloud transformation, they looked to Oracle Consulting to provide key oversight. Our Cloud Advisory services minimized risk and enabled a reliable software solution to go live at a crucial time for the customer, who relied greatly on our in-depth knowledge of the Oracle solution.
Our cloud advisory services go beyond helping customers move to the cloud. We also help customers maximize the benefits of their post-go live cloud environment. Example:
- Solution Optimization: A large grocery chain went live with Oracle HCM Cloud, but was not experiencing the value they expected. They requested our Cloud Advisors dive into their pain points and recommend a better path. We engaged with the grocer’s business and technology leaders to assess their production environment, where we quickly discovered several configurable options for them and unlocked a whole new experience for their business users. We helped them ensure that their solution operated with all of the benefits and value that they envisioned.
