Properly functioning equipment is a vital component of success for many industries. Unfortunately, maintenance on that equipment typically only becomes a priority when it fails or breaks—and even then the choice to fix or replace the machinery is often a product of whether the cost of repair exceeds the cost to buy new equipment. With Asset Lifecycle Management (ALM), organizations can take a more proactive approach to equipment maintenance and help improve safety, reduce downtime and lower overall equipment costs.

MIPRO Consulting regularly works with organizations of all sizes in a variety of industries to implement and optimize PeopleSoft ALM solutions that ensure equipment performs to its greatest potential.

Shannon Klabnik, MIPRO’s PeopleSoft Practice Director, recently lent her ALM expertise to Cleaner magazine for an article titled, “Get the Most From Your Gear.” The article discusses the benefits of applying ALM software to your inventory, as well as best practices for implementing and utilizing it.

We look forward to connecting with you soon!

PODCAST – PeopleSoft 9.2 HCM

jpisha — Fri, 29 Mar 2013 13:42:33 +0000

PODCAST: PeopleSoft HCM Users Get a Productivity Boost in PeopleSoft 9.2

We’re excited that our very own Anne Meyer and Larry Zagata sat down with TechTarget’s Emma Snider to discuss the productivity enhancements found in PeopleSoft 9.2. Here’s how Snider frames the podcast:

The latest version of Oracle PeopleSoft human capital management (HCM) and financials software, PeopleSoft 9.2, will be generally available March 22nd after several years in development. So what can users expect to see in this new release?

In this podcast, SearchFinancialApplications associate editor Emma Snider caught up with Anne Meyer and Larry Zagata from MIPRO Consulting in order to flesh out some of the most significant new features for both the HR and finance side in 9.2. Other topics covered include what benefits users can expect to reap if they choose to upgrade to the newest version and how they should approach an upgrade.

But in the wake of Oracle’s cloud-based Fusion applications, is it wise to continue upgrading PeopleSoft HCM and finance systems? Meyer and Zagata also touch on how organization leaders can decide whether moving to a cloud-based system might be the better choice, as well as the feasibility of opting for a hybrid cloud and on-premises approach.

You can listen to the podcast over at Search Financial Applications’ website, or you can download the podcast directly.

MIPRO Featured in the March 13, 2013 Edition of IndustryWeek

Steven Brenner, MIPRO’s Senior Principal Consultant, recently co-authored a piece that is featured in the March 13, 2013 online edition of IndustryWeek. Entitled “Keeping a Steady Hand at the Financial Wheel’”, the article explores how ERP Financial Solutions can help manufacturers operate profitably while limiting product development costs.

For manufacturing companies, it has always been about stuff. Making stuff. Assembling stuff. Ensuring that you have sufficient components and raw materials on hand, and being able to deliver your products to your customers in a timely manner.

Aside from the obvious prerequisite of producing a quality product, successful manufacturers have always distinguished themselves from the competition by accomplishing these goals faster, better, or more efficiently than the competition. With that in mind, the ability to acquire, manufacture, ship and track the very tangible, real-world items involved in any manufacturing process is being given a significant—and in some cases dramatic—upgrade thanks to the virtual toolkit available in the latest generation of integrated financial software solutions.

In today’s increasingly digital world, even the most “old school” manufacturing entities rely heavily on the coordination, communication and tracking capabilities of computers and advanced technical systems. To read the article in its entirety, click here.

If you have any questions about thePeopleSoft suite of products and their application(s) within your Organization, please don’t hesitate to contact MIPRO, or reach out directly to Steven Brenner.

Gas Oil & Mining Contractor

MIPRO Featured in the March 2013 Edition of Gas Oil & Mining Contractor

Contractors in the gas, oil and mining sectors own and maintain a massive array of equipment that experiences daily use and heavy wear. Often, maintenance of machinery only becomes a priority when operators see obvious signs that equipment is malfunctioning or broken. Replacement is simply a function of whether equipment repair bills exceed the cost of buying new equipment.

By applying the principles of Asset Lifecycle Management (ALM) to their inventory, contractors can improve safety, reduce downtime, predict breakdowns, minimize the cost of maintenance, and lower overall equipment costs.

Shannon Klabnik is the PeopleSoft Practice Director for MIPRO Consulting. MIPRO is a consultancy specializing in Oracle PeopleSoft applications, regularly working with organizations of all sizes to implement and optimize PeopleSoft modules that improve efficiency, maintain compliance and maximize productivity. PeopleSoft Asset Lifecycle Management (ALM) is a robust solution that enables companies to prioritize assets and manage their facilities for optimal utilization and uptime. Having been involved with more PeopleSoft ALM implementations than any other consultancy in North America, MIPRO has distinguished itself as a thought leader in this space and is often called on to serve as an expert source to national trade media.

SOFTWARE IS KEY

“Gas, oil and mining contractors rely on complex, specially designed machinery in remote corners of the globe in a range of varied landscapes, rugged terrain and unpredictable environments,” Klabnik says.

In the world of banking, the ability to track the movement of funds into systems has always been a top priority. While computers have exponentially increased tracking and monitoring capabilities, the digital world has also introduced a great deal of additional complexity into the banking system. Increasingly, banks of all sizes are beginning to understand that technical advancements have only increased the need to introduce a correspondingly powerful in-house financial management framework.

This need is now becoming more urgent in today’s regulatory environment. With the contours of the technology landscape changing rapidly, and with security being a bigger concern than ever before, the legislative environment within the industry is constantly evolving to keep up with new technical and operational mandates. As a result, regulatory compliance poses a significant challenge for administrators and decision-makers at banks and financial institutions, and optimizing processes for governance, risk and compliance is more important than ever.For many banks, leading edge financial management software solutions are the answer. When implemented correctly and utilized optimally, such solutions can play a vital role in managing the inherent complexities of modern-day banking, mitigating risk of noncompliance, realizing new process efficiencies and fueling organizational growth.
