Grupo Fármacos Especializados Achieves Greater Operational Efficiency and Cost Control with Engineered Systems and Managed Cloud Services
Grupo Fármacos Especializados is a consortium of companies
that specializes in various healthcare-related services and products. The group
started as a single pharmacy in Mexico City, grew to a chain of pharmacies, and
later expanded to include wholesale distribution of pharmaceuticals and
healthcare products to public and private sector organizations.
Grupo Farmacos implemented Oracle E-Business Suite, Oracle’s
PeopleSoft, Siebel CRM, Hyperion, Demantra, SOA, and Oracle Business
Intelligence—run and managed by Oracle Managed Cloud Services—providing a single instance
capability that supports daily operations, executive decision making, and
enables the IT organization to leverage the software functionality to support
strategic business initiatives instead of ongoing system maintenance and
support
Grupo Farmacos upgraded and implemented Oracle Exadata Database Machine, Oracle Exalogic Elastic Cloud, and Oracle Exalytics In-Memory Machine to support the growing
quantity of commercial and financial transactions performed using the data
warehouse and business intelligence (BI) systems—which drive Grupo Fármacos
Especializados’ order and delivery processes—ensuring the company meets market
challenges in line with its corporate strategy
“After careful technical and financial feasibility analysis,
we upgraded to Oracle Engineered Systems, run and maintained by Oracle Managed Cloud
Services, ensuring greater system stability and availability and leveraging the
best practices and expertise needed to support our growth.”
