Tri Palm International manufactures and distributes a wide range of water dispensing equipment under the OASIS and Sunroc brands. Following a six-month evaluation process, Tri Palm selected Oracle BI Suite EE and Oracle Data Integrator, both components of Oracle Fusion Middleware, to help consolidate financials and sales reporting from Oracle's JD Edwards World Release A7.3 in the US and Europe.
The company chose Oracle BI software for its ease-of-use, ability to extend intelligence capabilities to JD Edwards World and for its rapid deployment capability. With the help of Oracle Consulting, Tri Palm International deployed Oracle BI Suite EE and Oracle Data Integrator in the span of four weeks (September 2007) delivering working financial and sales reports to executive management, financial and sales organisations. Tri Palm International expects to extend their BI system to manufacturing, engineering, accounts receivable and accounts payable departments this calendar year.
"Ease-of-use and support for JD Edwards World were major factors in selecting Oracle for our BI initiative," said Michael Leibold, corporate controller, Tri Palm International. "Oracle BI Suite EE users have ability to easily drill down to transactional details, customise reports and conduct ad hoc queries as needed. The point and click nature of the software allows users to quickly pick up and go with limited training -- taking a load off of IT in the process." |
