Situation at the City

The City sought to transition its existing Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) financial system to Oracle Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) Cloud, and to implement Oracle Enterprise Performance Management Cloud for budget preparation and planning. The City needed to streamline and modernize its core administrative and financial business processes, leveraging technology to promote efficiencies, transparency, and value to its stakeholders.

The City’s primary objectives for its ERP digital transformation project included:

  • Integration of administrative and financial processes
  • User-friendly interfaces
  • Increased productivity with expanded automation, improved workflow, and elimination of manual processes
  • Reduced costs
  • Real-time reporting and dashboards for enhanced decision support
  • Scalability
  • Enhanced data and process-related controls

This system goes way beyond what we had, and it’s making us a better organization. We already have better access to data for improved decision-making, and so much more. I’m very grateful to the AST team and have a lot of pride in what we’ve accomplished together."
