Hitachi Consulting introduces new Oracle R12 assessment tool

Hitachi Consulting has recently introduced a new Oracle R12 assessment tool to help customers determine whether upgrading or re-implementing is the right decision for them. The solution, HindsiteSM, is an interactive online planning tool that helps companies answer key questions to help make the right upgrade or re-implementation decision for their organization.

As support for Oracle’s 11i begins to dwindle, companies need to determine the full scope and impact of whether to do a technical upgrade to R12 or perform a clean re-implementation. HindsiteSM is an intelligent system designed specifically for analyzing and planning Oracle R12 migrations. It helps assess the true impact of an upgrade on a business and shows the full potential of a successful migration. With Hindsite’s proven methodology, Hitachi Consulting is able to quickly lead customers through an automated but thorough process of evaluating existing system functionality, while defining migration strategy, understanding a company’s requirements and scope, and developing a high-level roadmap for migrating the entire footprint to R12.

“HindsiteSM offers an understanding of how an upgrade may impact your systems, gives a realistic picture of time, resources and cost requirements, identifies potential risks and helps prevent costly upgrade mistakes,” said Troy Lutes, Hitachi Consulting Oracle Practice Leader. “It’s an assessment that anyone considering Oracle R12 should undertake.”
