PARTNER SUCCESS
Midsize Customers Benefit, Partners Grow With Oracle Accelerate

Jibe Consulting
“In October, we received a call from a potential client, a $200M subsidiary of a large company that has standardized on Oracle.  With licenses provided by the parent, they researched Oracle, primarily via resources posted on www.oracle.com. They learned about the Oracle Accelerate implementation methodology and reviewed the Profit Online Partner News article about our project at Leupold & Stevens. The client attended Oracle OpenWorld and their experiences at the event helped them confirm the selection of Jibe Consulting as their preferred implementation partner."

—Shane Moncrieff, President, Jibe Consulting, United States
