This session highlights New Brunswick Community College (NBCC) and its PeopleSoft Campus Solutions modernization on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) through implementation of Oracle PeopleSoft Cloud Manager. Attendees will gain a practical, end-to-end view of the implementation and the measurable benefits achieved. The presentation explores how NBCC used Cloud Manager—particularly Policy Manager—to automate Dev, Test, Training, and Production environments. By scheduling automated start/stop events, NBCC reduced costs and improved efficiency. Capabilities such as self-service provisioning, automated backup and restore, Lift & Shift, and lifecycle management further streamlined operations and maximized uptime. A concise overview of key features will include environment provisioning, governance, install and configure, orchestration, updates and upgrades, PeopleTools patching, selective adoption, and backup and recovery. Learning objectives include: Understanding the implementation process. Identifying required resources and timelines. Quantifying operational and financial benefits. Leveraging Policy Manager to lower total cost of ownership through automation. The session addresses common questions: Which features drive the most value? How does Cloud Manager reduce costs? What resources are required? The primary message is the business case for lifting and shifting PeopleSoft (CS, HCM, or FSCM) to OCI and fully adopting Cloud Manager. Through a real-world case study, this session is especially relevant for organizations that have moved to OCI but have not yet implemented Cloud Manager to unlock its full value.

Delivering changes in JD Edwards with speed and confidence requires more than manual test scripts and spreadsheets. Modern JDE organizations are looking for automated, repeatable testing that fits inside their existing Oracle stack, not another external tool. In this session, we demonstrate a JDE-native test automation platform that uses Orchestrator, APEX, and Oracle Visual Builder to automate end-to-end business process testing, including real test evidence PDF creation and real-time dashboards. The next step: AI-assisted testing. We show how AI is used to enhance testing capability by: •Automatically generating test data and input variations •Recommending test cases based on JDE usage patterns and change impact •Identifying high-risk areas for regression testing •Assisting with test documentation and exception explanation Combined, these capabilities help teams accelerate testing, reduce manual effort, and improve reliability before ESUs, upgrades, and deployments, all inside the Oracle ecosystem. We will walk through a real Procure-to-Pay scenario (vendor → PO → receipt → match → voucher), demonstrating automated testing orchestration from start to finish. Outcome: Attendees leave with a blueprint for implementing AI-enhanced, JDE-native test automation that reduces upgrade pressure, increases quality, and supports continuous improvement — without adding external tools or complexity.

Emirates Flight Catering (EKFC), one of the world’s largest in-flight catering providers, modernized its JD Edwards environment to overcome inefficiencies caused by manual, paper-based workflows. By automating key operations—from in-flight meal management and maintenance requests to HR leave approvals—EKFC achieved faster communication, real-time visibility, and improved resource utilization. This session highlights how EKFC used JD Edwards’ native automation and mobile capabilities to transform complex workflows into connected, data-driven processes. Attendees will learn how similar strategies can be applied across industries such as manufacturing, logistics, and services to enhance efficiency, strengthen tracking, and drive operational agility through JD Edwards.
