Edens & Avant Improves Employee Information Access with Oracle
Oracle(r) Secure Enterprise Search Helps Increase Efficiency and Productivity for Operator of Community-Oriented Shopping Centers
Redwood Shores, Calif.   14-MAY-2008 05:00 AM   
  • Edens & Avant, a developer, owner and operator of community-oriented shopping areas throughout the eastern United States, has improved its information management with Oracle(r) Database, Oracle's JD Edwards EnterpriseOne, Oracle Secure Enterprise Search and several components of Oracle Fusion Middleware.
  • Because the company's information resided in multiple disparate systems, it was often difficult for Edens & Avant's employees to easily search and find the information they needed to do their jobs effectively.
  • BIAS, a Certified Advantage Partner in the Oracle PartnerNetwork, helped Edens & Avant implement and integrate several components of Oracle Fusion Middleware, Oracle Database, Oracle's JD Edwards EnterpriseOne, Oracle Secure Enterprise Search and multiple third-party applications, to create an enterprise-wide portal that consolidates Edens & Avant's business information to make it searchable and accessible for all employees.
  • Today, employees no longer have to sign in to multiple systems or hunt through hundreds of paper files to find the information they need to do their jobs. Instead, they sign in to the system once to securely search for critical information regarding each of the company's properties - from lease documents to vacancy rates to tenant histories to emergency contacts -- as well as relevant industry news from external sources.
  • Using Oracle Secure Enterprise Search, Edens & Avant's information is comprehensively searchable with security and access based on organizational roles. For example, the company's human resources executives may receive search results that include confidential employee information that other members of the organization do not see when executing the same search.

Supporting Quotes

  • "With Oracle Secure Enterprise Search in place, users can easily search for the information they need and get most of the details at a glance. Our users love the system because it eliminates a lot of tedious fact finding and makes it easier for them to do their jobs," said Shani Hall, Manager, Information Platform, Edens & Avant.
  • "Like many sophisticated, fast-paced companies, Edens & Avant's business requirements were beginning to outpace its IT infrastructure's ability to support them. Using Oracle to consolidate all of the information at the core of its business into a single, easily accessible system helps Edens & Avant increase productivity immediately, and it also provides a strong, flexible foundation to support future growth," said John Ezzell, Vice President, BIAS.
