"Initially, Coach USA selected another vendor to help us with our Oracle R12 upgrade," says Ralph Groen, Director of Information Systems at Coach USA. "However, after the other vendor failed to adequately perform, we engaged Core Services and saw immediate results. The Core Services team of experts more than exceeded our expectations by delivering our upgrade on budget and on schedule. We are delighted with how well our strategic partnership with Core Services worked."
"Coach USA was lagging behind on several major Oracle E-Business Suite release levels," says Robert Laughlin, Core Services' Vice President of Consulting. "Premier Support for EBS 11.5.10 officially ends in November 2010 so that choosing to stay with that version would normally result in additional maintenance fees for Extended Support." Laughlin continues, "After our initial assessment, Coach USA agreed with us that a full re-implementation was the most effective strategy for Coach USA. Core Services was able to deploy its highly skilled consulting and database administration ("DBA") teams to get the job done." Laughlin explains, "By providing a full solutions support team, the upgrade process was seamless, allowing Core Services to maintain Coach USA's older applications and data base versions while completing the Oracle R12 upgrade."
Groen concludes, "In addition to bringing Coach USA into Oracle version compliance, we are confident that upgrading to Oracle R12 will reduce our administrative costs while simultaneously providing us with cutting edge technology and functionality. Core Services provided the leadership that both drove this mission critical project and delivered maximum value across our organization."
