This session was presented at Oracle Cloud Summit Virtual 2025.
This presentation is for CIOs, IT leadership, project managers or product managers. When migrating your system to the cloud, you're likely going to engage the services of a vendor, systems integrator or implementation partner. This presentation will include best practices and lessons learned from the entire lifecycle of working with vendors to insure project success: negotiating SOWs, preparing your team, Project Management, identifying and mitigating risks, keeping things on track, go live and sustainment. We are in the process of migrating from Peoplesoft to Oracle (Fusion) Cloud Apps, but this presentation includes takeaways for any cloud implementation.
