Data Cleansing Approach
  • Establish Standards and Definitions
  • Define Set the Attributes for Customer
  • Apply Customer Definition to Siebel SFA and
    Oracle EBS
  • Set the Baseline
  • How Many Duplicates do we have? at what Level?
    (Party, Account, Site)
  • Set and Communicate Cleansing Goals (remember,
    youre never finished!)
  • Dedicate Resource(s) to the Customer Data Stewart
    Role
  • Full time position, Cross-Functional, Position of
    Influence
  • Begin the Merge
  • Involve and Train Key Team members in TCA
  • Credit, Invoicing, Order Management
  • Supervise Production Merges
  • Dont forget your GEOs!
  • Choose the Cleansing Tool
  • Trillium
  • Batch Cleansing process using Global Postal
    Directories

22
Customer Database Hub
  • Driven from the Customer Standards Discussions
  • Apply the Attribute Model
  • Account Name, Address, City, State, Postal Code,
    Country, Hub Xref ID
  • Common to Siebel and Oracle EBS
  • Define your Matching Rule set in DQM
  • How Loose or Tight should the Matching be?
  • WRS took a Conservative Approach, Exact Match
  • Load Process
  • Coordinated the effort with Trillium Cleansing
  • Loaded Subset of Cleansed Records into the Hub
    for end to end Testing
  • Independently performed Full volume Loads from
    Siebel and EBS

23
SOA Approach
  • Define Highest Value Integrations
  • Customer Interface, New Customer Only
  • No Changes to Customer Acct - Oracle EBS is the
    Master
  • License Quote to Order (Product/Services Sales)
  • Renewals Quote to Service Contract
  • Mapping Implications
  • Single-Org Structure in Siebel, Multi-Org in EBS
  • Bi-Directional Mapping Requirements
  • Error Handling, Presenting a meaningful message
  • Integrating Systems, Integrating Teams
  • Functionality
  • New Customer Creation
  • EBS Party, Account, Bill-To, Ship-To, Sold-To
  • Notifications/Transmission
  • Automated Credit Check Notification for New
    Customers
  • Transmit Directly to Oracle OM Service
    Contract, Book and Ship
  • Order Status sent back to Siebel

24
SOA Challenges
  • Change Management
  • Systems and Processes are now highly connected
    and dependent
  • Business Teams IT need to Plan and Execute
    together
  • Initial Increase in Credit Check Notifications
  • Major change from informal Process to Automated
  • Due to our Tight Matching Rules
  • Manual Check in OCO Required to Validate Customer
  • Process Adoption
  • Took a little time to get comfortable with
  • Old (obsolete) processes still performed
  • Training fixed this

25
Project Timeline
26
Deployment Plan
  • Three Dry Runs prior to Production Cutover
  • To get the timing and dependencies straight
  • Estimated Four Day Cutover
  • Production Cutover Timing November 7 to 11
  • Apply Trillium Cleansed Data to EBS, Siebel 6.3
  • Perform the Siebel Upgrade 7.8

  • Validate Customer, Quote to Order, Quote to
    Service Contract Integration

27
Project Lessons
  • Think Twice (no three Times!) about merging
    independent initiatives into one Enterprise
    effort
  • For WRS, it was Foundational for the Future
  • Know your project dependencies
  • Parallel activities such as cleaning customer
    information while testing the capabilities of the
    Database Hub Crossing a bridge while building
    it
  • Be flexible and willingness to change
  • Changes in Business Practices and Processes
  • Changes in Roles, new Heroes emerge
  • Applies to IT, understand the responsibilities of
    each team and execute as one

28
Critical Success Factors
  • Gain strong Cross-Functional buy-in from the
    Executive level down, and a willingness to shift
    from Thats how we do things
  • Deliver the projects on time, with promised
    capabilities, focus on the end Goal
  • Deliver on the Upgrade, Customer Integration
    Platform
  • Nearly 30 of our Accounts match between Siebel
    and EBS
  • Make sure you have the Post-Implementation
    Support Plan in place
  • Elicit open and constructive feedback from the
    Business, the Good, the Bad, etc.
  • Communicate, communicate, communicate!
