Situation
This city is located in the U.S. state of Texas, in the densely populated Dallas–Fort Worth metropolitan area. It is considered a Dallas and Fort Worth suburb and is part of the Mid-Cities region.
The city had been using EBS Applications since 2003 and has required a number of upgrades in the past two decades to ensure compliance and ongoing support. Some of the upgrades have been purely technical, with no major deployment of new processes or functionality. However, AST has found ways to ensure the city enjoys the benefits of its upgraded technology and new features.
Key reasons for periodic upgrades primarily include:
- Upgrade to the nearest compatible application to ensure continued support by Oracle
- Keep databases updated to ensure functionality of peripheral software systems
AST has been very successful in driving these projects forward and assisting the City with their objectives, providing them improved business operations.”
