<strong>TCS</strong> Oracle Primavera Services<br />
Enterprise Solutions
When executing enterprise-wide strategic initiatives, the complexities and challenges<br />
faced by businesses include: globalization, cost control, and pressure to accelerate<br />
time-to-market. Oracle Primavera, the leading Enterprise Project Portfolio<br />
Management (EPPM) solution responds to these challenges with web, cloud and<br />
mobile-enabled platforms that centralize information, streamline and automate<br />
redundant processes, and consolidate disparate systems. As a result, executives and<br />
stakeholders gain real-time visibility into project activity and can ensure that<br />
investments are aligned with strategic imperatives while meeting timeframe and<br />
budget constraints.<br />
Tata Consultancy Services’ (<strong>TCS</strong>) comprehensive portfolio of Primavera services enables<br />
you to manage complex projects and realize accelerated benefits. Our end-to-end<br />
Primavera offering encompasses advisory services, integration, implementation,<br />
upgrade and consolidation, and managed services. <strong>TCS</strong>’ hosted model enables you to<br />
deploy these services on a monthly subscription basis, minimizing your initial<br />
investment.<br />
Overview<br />
Executives today need to balance economies of scale,<br />
leveraging global buying power, corporate<br />
governance, business alignment, and cost<br />
containment when rolling out any global IT initiative.<br />
The unique complexities associated with managing<br />
local business rules, currencies, and languages of<br />
multiple geographies further compound these<br />
challenges. In this context, the primary obstacle<br />
to an effective and efficient Primavera implementation<br />
is that currently, most businesses use Primavera<br />
disparately across business units, presenting<br />
challenges in data and license maintenance. Since data<br />
cannot be integrated or reported on for governance,<br />
organizations lack visibility into projects, early<br />
warnings and insightful decision making.<br />
As a global organization, you need an IT partner that<br />
knows global business. <strong>TCS</strong>’ Oracle Primavera services<br />
not only align closely with your overall IT strategy but<br />
offer efficiency, control, risk mitigation and visibility<br />
through consolidation. By integrating the consolidated<br />
instance with finance, maintenance, and HR systems<br />
(Oracle E-Business Suite), you establish a single source<br />
of data and reduce data entry overheads. With a single<br />
Enterprise Project Portfolio Management (EPPM)<br />
system that incorporates analysis, dashboards and<br />
reporting, you receive early warnings and take<br />
corrective action. Additionally, our service offering<br />
enables you to upgrade your Primavera products<br />
to the latest version while ensuring compatibility<br />
with existing integrations.<br />
