Featured Project - Systems Migration and Integration of a Defense Contractor Acquisition

Alaris recently partnered with a major defense contractor to lead the integration project for a $700M acquisition. The project entailed migration from SAP to the client’s existing Oracle E-Business installation.  Alaris was responsible for the following: conversion design and data migration; system design and configuration; custom design and development; integration with more than 20 third-party applications; system, integration and user acceptance testing phases; and production cutover planning, execution and support.  The implementation involved a wide range of Oracle E-Business applications that included Engineering, Financials, Manufacturing, Order Management, Project Contracts, Projects, Service and Repair, Supply Chain, and Enterprise Asset Management.  This effort was interdependent with the client’s construction and relocation to a new manufacturing facility. The timing and success of the systems migration was critical to the successful completion of the acquisition within a firm timeline.  Alaris continues to partner with the client to provide system enhancements and deploy new capabilities today.

Featured Project - Oracle Projects and Financials Implementation for a Large Defense Contractor

Implemented Oracle Project Costing and Billing, Project Contracts, OTL and Financials modules for a major DoD contractor. Key success factors included compliance with CAS and FAR regulations, total time accounting for labor costing, TCI and Value Added G&A methods, automation of federal Government billing formats (SF1034, SF1035, DD250, SF1443, T&M, etc.), billing by CLIN/ACRN, progress billing, and interface to Wide Area Workflow (WAWF). Leveraged multiple project and organization hierarchies to accumulate transaction detail into a simplified Datamart to support management reporting, audit requests, incurred cost submission, and other schedules. Additional business units are being added to the core infrastructure to increase the return on original investment.
