EXPERIENCES
“WE DON’T NEED MOBILE FROM OUR EBS IT’S ONLY OUR BACK-OFFICE SYSTEM”
BUT .. WHAT HAPPENS IF
NO ONE CAN WORK FROM
THE OFFICE ?!?!
8
COVID 19 IT CHALLENGES
• Supporting work-from-home en masse
• Making back-office systems accessible – automatic synchronization
• Supporting customers over digital channels
• Need for virtual collaboration
• Training workers on new technologies
• Strike a balance between being reactive and being proactive
5 SIGNS I NEED A DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION !
❑ I have a significant Oracle Forms/EBS investments and need to go mobile
❑ Employees are using paper, phone calls or clerks to enter data into a
back-office system after the fact
❑ Customers must interact with a staff member to buy, get statuses,
inquire
❑ Employees need to return or call into the office to get information to
do their job
How to Deliver Enterprise Systems to Mobile Channels
Without Costly and Risky Redevelopment Projects ?
THE CHALLENGE: AGILITY
ACHIEVING AGILITY
• Automate Work Loads
– Workers spend over 30% of their days on redundant or administrative tasks that can
easily be automated.
• Agile Development – Deploy Modularly on a Use-Case Basis
– Enable critical business functions to mobile on weekly to monthly basis
• Enable Citizen Developers
– Allow IT savvy business users to create their own mobile views of systems and data
• Cloud Enable
– Make systems accessible anytime anywhere and off load system management and scale as
you go

NEW YORK CITY TRANSIT AUTHORITY
ORACLE FORMS MOBILE APP
• Minimized the risk of cross contamination of having employees need to go into the office to request their shift changes and overtime
• Employees have access to their shifts and can make requests directly from their mobile phone – anytime, anywhere
• Call center calls reduced by 60% in first week
During COVID, call center overrun as employees call in to request shift
changes and overtime as system was only available on the desktop
To extend the overtime volunteer form, so all drivers would be able to
request changes via their mobile phones.
