Situation

The City of Jacksonville, Florida was facing significant business challenges due to its aging enterprise systems. Financial, HR, and administrative processes were disjointed, and employees expressed concern over many manual, time-intensive methods. Given the size of the city and the large number of employees and citizens, it faced issues with adaptability amid a rapidly changing business environment.

The City sought to replace its separate financial, procurement, HR, payroll, and budget development systems with an integrated and proven Public Sector ERP cloud solution to satisfy its critical business requirements. The primary goals of this engagement included the following:

  • Streamline core administrative and financial practices through in-depth business process reengineering
  • Improve the City’s ability to quickly adapt to changes in business requirements
  • Provide a user-friendly system and give primary functional departments the ability to incorporate business changes

AST was selected by the City of Jacksonville in large part because of our cohesive team. The AST resources assigned to this project have worked together on many successful Oracle cloud projects. AST is thrilled to be a partner with the City for this important project.

Solutions & Benefits

AST was the City’s partner-of-choice for this critical engagement due to its impressive references for similar transformational projects, its close relationship with the Oracle Development teams, and the time and attention spent with the City to determine the best solution.

AST’s executives and sales managers met with the City Council and CFO on several occasions to ensure a complete understanding of City requirements. In conjunction, AST worked with Oracle to determine the best solution to fit the City’s needs.

In a collaborative presentation, AST and Oracle demonstrated the key functional areas of the proposed solution to City stakeholders. This presentation and the cohesiveness of AST’s team was a key differentiator in proving that AST was the right partner to facilitate this organizational transformation. The 3-year engagement provides the City with an integrated, modern enterprise cloud solution and streamlined, efficient business processes that will result in significant savings of time and cost.
