Matt Johnson, Senior Director, Product Strategy It’s fun to play horseshoes, though it’s hard to find a pitch these days. Liability insurance apparently takes exception to people throwing heavy metal objects towards each other at shin-high stakes sticking out of the ground. So it’s no wonder that fewer and fewer people comprehend the saying, “’Almost’ only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades.” In horseshoes, you see, you can score even if your throw doesn’t “ring” the...

Manufacturing today is more complex than ever before. With the increasing use of new technologies in an Industry 4.0 context, data is coming in from more and more sources.

Everyone knows that quality is an important topic. Accordingly, in many companies Quality Management has been addressed already - but with an approach that does not lead to success: It’s typical for a large organization to have implemented multiple quality management processes, data models, and applications over time. With such an approach, companies are working in a sub-optimal manner, and then start to face these types of challenges: - Quality metrics are either not...

Matt Johnson, Senior Director, Product Strategy You wake up a little late on Monday, and you barely have time to get a bite to eat before you rush outside to drive to work. As you open your car door, you notice a big screen in the middle of the dash that wasn’t there before. It looks really cool, but you have no idea what it does. The ignition switch has also disappeared, replaced by a button marked “Start.” You press it, and nothing happens. “What’s going on?” you wonder out...

Matt Johnson, Senior Director, Product Strategy When Daylight Savings Time took effect this weekend, I had to reset the time on each of the programmable thermostats in our house. They’re older models that don’t update to the new time on their own. I waited impatiently for the digits on each unit to forward an hour, daydreaming about more adaptive systems. That turned my thoughts to Oracle Supply Chain Planning Cloud. We often talk about how it delivers “adaptive supply chain...
