  • Improved Intergraph’s knowledge management process to create high quality content, helping to ensure the company is Knowledge-Centered Support (KCS) compliant

Why They Chose Oracle

Looking for a lower total cost of ownership, Intergraph decided to go with a cloud solution and considered both Oracle and Salesforce.com as potential choices. After evaluating both applications, the company decided on Oracle Service Cloud.
 

It was evident to me that Oracle Service Cloud was so much more mature than Salesforce.com on the service side. Additionally the Oracle solution provides the flexibility and functionality we need to deliver excellent customer service. We also relied heavily on Gartner’s assessment of Oracle Service Cloud as a leader in cloud service solutions.

Execution

Working with eVerge Group, Intergraph went live with the integrated Siebel and Oracle Service Cloud solution in December 2013. eVerge Group met with Intergraph, determined the project scope, provided the company with solutions alternatives for a number of challenges it was having, and developed a statement of work for the Oracle Service Cloud implementation, including the integration with Siebel. Based on this work, Intergraph selected Oracle and eVerge Group for its solution.

Intergraph engaged eVerge Group to implement the integrated Oracle solution.
 
“eVerge Group was a big factor in making this project successful. The group brought expertise to the table on both the Oracle Service Cloud and Siebel side. Among other things, the team was able to build a great SSO solution that helped make it transparent to the users as to whether they were in Siebel or Oracle Service Cloud. Because it was an unknown at the beginning of the project as to how well SSO would work and because this kind of integration between these two systems had not been done before, we considered this one of the main high risk areas on the project. eVerge worked diligently to deliver a very solid SSO solution that we have been very pleased with. eVerge was committed to helping make Intergraph successful on this project,” Uptain said.
