Oracle Fusion Cloud SCM: “best of breed” capabilities in a comprehensive solution for product-centric enterprise

Jon Chorley, senior vice president of supply chain applications and chief sustainability officer, Oracle—Aug 1, 2023

We often talk about the power of an integrated applications suite and the benefits of connecting business processes to enhance efficiency, increase resilience, and reduce costs. The antithesis of going with an integrated suite is choosing a range of different vendors a la cart, often referred to as “best of breed”. But what if you could buy “best-of-breed” applications while also buying an integrated suite and avoid all that integration and support hassle?

The argument for Oracle Fusion Cloud Applications, an integrated suite of applications, was underlined in the latest cycle of Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ reports. Oracle was once again named a Leader in Transportation Management Systems and Warehouse Management Systems reports. In addition, we were placed in the  Leaders Quadrant in the 2023 Supply Chain Planning Solutions.

In addition to these Gartner recognitions, Oracle is also a Leader in Product-Centric Cloud ERP, Service-Centric Cloud ERP, Financial Planning Software, Cloud HCM Suites for 1000+ Employee Enterprises, and more.

Our integrated suite of applications enables organizations to break down silos, standardize processes, and manage supply chain, finance, HR, and customer experience data on a single cloud platform. With quarterly updates, customers gain access to continuous innovation as new features are added every 90 days, without downtime or business disruption. A connected Digital thread across the enterprise—without compromising individual capability.

 

To our customers: Thank You!

We are immensely proud of these recognitions, but we can’t take all the credit. Our customers are the driving force behind our applications development efforts. While we are constantly investing in new technologies and innovations that help change the game, we are also working with our customers to incorporate their suggestions and ideas. Many of our new features come from suggestions that our customers share on Oracle Cloud Customer Connect, which is our online community for customers and partners. Peers and customers cite our strengths and reviews in Gartner® Peer Insights™ which we feel acknowledge our key application capabilities.

We look forward to the continued collaboration with customers as we build out more market-leading capabilities that enable them to embrace continuous innovation, streamline processes, and quickly respond to changing demand, supply, and market conditions.
