  4. ORISE Oracle Financials and business process improvement changes have resulted in a 25% reduction in the accounting staff over the last two years.

  5. Custom or Commercial Off-the-Shelf (COTS) Software? ORISE • Team….. • determined requirements • evaluated travel software • surveyed other contractors – 9 out of 12 developed their own

  6. Decision ORISE • COTS solution…. • No system met all of our requirements. • No interface to/from Oracle Financials. • Custom interface may be broken with software upgrades. • Cost – $120-180K (before customizations and consulting) • Annual cost – licensing and maintenance fees

  7. Decision ORISE • Custom system…. • Requirements would be meet • Interface to Oracle would be easier to maintain by in-house staff • No annual license or maintenance fees • Cost – less than $75K (no consulting)

  8. Lessons Learned So Far ORISE • Prior to the design and development phase…. • Firm up business processes and any process changes • Develop a detailed requirements document • Make sure the programmer knows the current process inside and out

  9. Lessons Learned So Far ORISE • Select at team that has full knowledge of the process – the team should be small. • Design development – let others see the product during the development • Get user buy in early in the progress.

  10. How do we get to October 1? ORISE • Complete integrated testing • Train a pilot group • Train additional pilot groups • Develop a users manual • Develop super users • Revise the travel manual
