The Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin’s (CHW) outdated PeopleSoft application posed significant risks and was requiring more and more budget to maintain. Thanks to a quick, affordable lift-and-shift upgrade to PeopleSoft on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), CHW has saved time, lowered the total cost of ownership, and reduced risk, all while transforming their IT organization from a cost center to a value provider.

CHALLENGE PRESENTED: CHW’s aging infrastructure lacked a Disaster Recovery solution and was no longer actively supported with vendor upgrades, patches, and technical support. These gaps resulted in security vulnerabilities, software incompatibility, and compliance issues, poor performance and reliability, as well as rising support costs.

PROPOSED SOLUTION: SpearMC helped CHW upgrade their legacy, server-based PeopleSoft application to a more modern solution hosted on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI).                  

HOW WE HELPED CHW SUCCEED:
-Provided on-site employee training on OCI, PeopleSoft Cloud Manager, OCI Maintenance, PeopleSoft Update Manager, PeopleSoft Integration Tools, plus important considerations and best practices
-Performed a lift-and-shift to PeopleSoft OCI for upgraded functionality with minimal business impact
-Built a library of automated test scripts using the PeopleSoft Test Framework for fast future updates
