|
INTRODUCTION:
Michael Killen, president of Killen & Associates says, “By acquiring PeopleSoft (and JD Edwards), Oracle now has the mass and scope of operation to create more opportunities and threats for others than ever before. The company now has revenue of more than $10 billion, 260,000 customers and 50,000 financial services and IT partners/competitors. In addition, it has PeopleSoft and JD Edwards stockholders. If Oracle turns even slightly to the left or right, it can leave a group of customers with inflexible or highly flexible processes, partners and competitors with open or shut markets, or it can drive company stocks its and other companies’ -- up or down.”
Killen decided to publish “Oracle Strategies: New Challenges and Opportunities for Business Customers, Financial Service Suppliers, IT Suppliers and Investors” because of the huge potential impact and opportunities Oracle can create for others. The Killen study provides a perspective of key Oracle strategies and places them in meaningful contexts for customers, investors, and suppliers of ERP, FSC and middleware solutions. The study also focuses on two strategies that are enormously important to a great number of readers -- Oracle’s strategy for helping:
- CFOs to improve their financial supply chain (FSC). This is a multibillion dollar marketplace, especially for providers of cash and risk management.
- Themselves (Oracle) to unglue their applications from the IT infrastructure to meet the new needs of customers. This is a topic of great concern to ERP providers as well as middleware suppliers such as IBM, to mention the largest.
This study provides market forecasts, analysis of revenue, and a perspective of threats and opportunities for 30+ suppliers.
