Accenture ACN and Oracle ORCL have launched a new business
group to jointly help customers embrace the cloud to achieve their digital
transformation goals. Through the group, Accenture and Oracle will deliver
industry-specific solutions built on the Oracle Cloud to help clients
realize the benefits of the cloud faster and with reduced risk. The
Accenture Oracle Business Group brings together the leading technology,
skills and experience from each company to offer businesses the ability to
implement cloud solutions quicker and easier than previously possible.
The Accenture Oracle Business Group simplifies and streamlines the buying
process for Accenture solutions based on Oracle Cloud technologies. As a
result, customers can more nimbly react to changing business and economic
conditions by leveraging end-to-end solutions that address their specific
business and industry requirements. The new group will bring breakthrough
solutions to market across a range of industries, with an initial focus on
the public, financial and hospitality services sectors.
"Building on our 23-year alliance relationship, the Accenture Oracle
Business Group combines Accenture's deep industry and technology experience
with Oracle's expansive set of cloud solutions to deliver client value not
found elsewhere in the market today," said Stephen Rohleder, group chief
executive for North America, Accenture. "This is part of our strategy to
take advantage of Oracle's leading technologies and build our business
together for the future. It is a game-changer for our clients, Oracle, and
Accenture."
"For the first time, customers have the opportunity to use accelerators,
prebuilt adapters and industry-specific extensions with Oracle's
software-as-a-service and platform-as-a-service offerings to accelerate
cloud migration, simplify cross-pillar integration and achieve enterprise
transformation," said Thomas Kurian, president, Product Development, Oracle.
"By providing a single process to implement end-to-end mission- critical
services, the Accenture Oracle Business Group is ideally positioned to help
our customers realize the true benefits of cloud computing."
The group solutions will be built using Oracle's software-as-a-service and
platform-as-a-service solutions delivered via the Accenture Foundation
Platform for Oracle, a multi-component development and integration
accelerator running in the Oracle Cloud. Offerings consist of:
-- Pre-integrated enterprise-class cloud solutions and a robust service
catalog to help simplify migration to the cloud and accelerate overall
innovation
-- Dedicated Accenture and Oracle resources, including 52,000
Oracle-skilled
consultants globally, with an additional 20,000 Java-skilled
professionals. This can help enable end-to-end delivery and maintenance
of hardware, middleware and software solutions, helping customers
architect a path to the cloud
-- Accelerators such as cloud readiness assessments and data migration,
testing and training tools which can help reduce the time and risk
associated with implementation and shift the focus to innovation and
growth
-- Vertical solutions and extensions designed to reduce the need for
customization while addressing industry and customer requirements
The Accenture Oracle Business Group will include experienced industry
specialists and leading solution development and delivery talent, supported
by a dedicated team of sales, marketing, and technical professionals.
Specialists from both Accenture and Oracle will collaborate to identify
business requirements, develop solutions, execute go-to-market strategies,
