SWIFT Implementation of Oracle’s PeopleSoft EnterpriseGet a Speedy Start with Oracle’s PeopleSoft Enterprise HCM – at a Fraction of the Usual Cost!

It’s a common dilemma: you know your business would benefit from Oracle’s PeopleSoft Enterprise HCM software. You need to maintain a single view of personnel data, automate your HR and payroll processes, and integrate them with other corporate systems.

But transitioning to PeopleSoft Enterprise seems out of the question financially. And you fear that setting up an enterprise solution will eat up more time and money than you bargained for.

Manageable Pricing for Mid-sized CompaniesNow, price needn’t be a show stopper for midsized companies – both in implementation costs and ongoing operation. You can have:

• A “starter package” of basic capabilities in PeopleSoft Enterprise HCM to run HR and payroll

• Interfaces to major banks, benefit providers and taxing authorities

• Secure, encrypted managed interface service for interfaces that have security requirements

• A ready-to-use system in as little as 14 weeks

• A start-up charge that’s a fraction of typical implementation costs

• Optional managed hosting in one of our highly secure data centers

• Optional outsourced processing of your payroll, payroll tax and W-2 preparation

Thanks to our proprietary Software Implementation Fast TrackSM (SWIFT) approach, you can begin using PeopleSoft’s Enterprise HCM for one-third the cost and in half the time of typical enterprise resource implementations.

Laying a Solid FoundationOur SWIFT package includes all the business functions in Release 1 of PeopleSoft Enterprise HCM, Version 9.0: Base Human Resources (Workforce Administration), eProfile, ePay and Payroll for North America.

By concentrating on just the basics, you can make the transition to PeopleSoft Enterprise HCM smoothly, without overwhelming users, losing momentum, or running over budget. When you’re ready to adopt higher-order capabilities (such as Workforce Analytics, Benefits Administration, eCompensation, etc.) you can easily build on the foundation you have in place, adding software components without complicating the architecture.

All the PeopleSoft Enterprise modules integrate with each other and use the employee data in Base Human Resources. We focus on implementing the base HR application and database to support your core operations and any additional PeopleSoft Enterprise modules you choose. With a solid foundation, you can quickly add capabilities later…with less cost, less risk and less disruption to your workforce.

Product Brief

Avoid “Scope Creep” and Implementation DelaysWe’ve implemented PeopleSoft Enterprise solutions for a long list of blue-chip companies and have developed a time-tested methodology. Over the years, we’ve learned what eats up time, where plans can go awry, and what is most agonizing to companies about the whole experience of adopting enterprise software.

To simplify the process, we’ve pre-built tools, templates and environments that conform to industry best practices. By doing this prework and tightly controlling the scope of the project so no customization is required, we’re able to “go live” with your PeopleSoft Enterprise application in as little as 14 weeks. And that efficiency saves you about two-thirds the cost of a typical, customized implementation.

Full-Service Approach Simplifies Your LifeAT&T Hosting & Application Services offers the full spectrum of services to implement, host and manage your PeopleSoft Enterprise HCM applications day-to-day, so you won’t need to run interference between multiple vendors all operating under different contracts.

Implementation • Project Management. We follow a proven

methodology and industry best practices.

• Data Conversion. We’ll do the conversion automatically for large data sets, provide tool sets to help you load smaller data sets, and provide validation reports for you to check all the data.

• Interfaces. We’ve included 22 interfaces to the major financial, benefit provider and taxing authorities to make your system fully functional without new interface development. And for selected interfaces that involve sensitive data, we’ve included implementation of secure, encrypted interface management.

• Reports. We’ve configured and tested 46 of the most frequently used reports in our startup environment.

• Training. A major benefit of implementing PeopleSoft Enterprise without customizations is that you can take advantage of Oracle’s standard training – no customized training programs are needed to be proficient.

Hosting and Infrastructure Management Because the SWIFT starter platforms are designed to operate within our IT environment, we can host your PeopleSoft Enterprise HCM applications in one of our world-class data centers.
