Impediments of the Industry
Companies and business leaders today are dealing with complex data. At the same time, customers expect rapid, timely, relevant information that influences their buying decisions. Therefore, Accretive Solutions – which focuses primarily on implementing Financial Close and Reporting, Data Analytics, and Planning & Forecasting - helps the firm’s clients get better access to pivotal, real decision support.
Significant uptick in M&A activity in the market place has been observed, both through private equity purchase and through a competitor acquisition. As a leader, Oracle’s EPM tool suite provides a technological foundation for acquiring companies to provide fast and accurate consolidated performance results. Integral to achieving objectives is the ability to leverage the various Oracle technologies, such as Oracle Essbase, Hyperion Financial Management, and Hyperion Planning.
