General Sessions

TIME TITLE ABSTRACT SPEAKERS

Tuesday

11:00 – 11:45 AM

Oracle Procurement:

Empowering Modern

Procurement

Modern procurement systems and business practices offer significant

opportunities for cost savings, process improvement, and value creation

for your organization. In this session Oracle will cover keys trends, best

practices, and product strategy across our procurement solutions.

Don Good, Senior

Manager, Deloitte

Tom Anthony, VP

Strategy, Oracle

Tuesday

12:00 – 12:45 PM

Oracle iProcurement

Loved by All: Case

Study

Today’s requisitioning tools are in competition to be user friendly,

efficient, and robust. Why did we select Oracle’s iProcurement over Ariba,

Coupa, and other niche players’ products? It wasn't just because of the

natural integration with our existing Oracle E-Busines Suite 12.1.3

footprint -- our category managers and requisitioners are thrilled with

Oracle iProcurement! This session will profile a collaborative solution that

has maximized user adoption, user productivity, and contract compliance

for realized value.

TBD

Wednesday

10:45 – 11:30 AM

New Approaches for

Driving Spend

Compliance Through

Managed Catalog

Content

Optimizing the success and benefits of a self-service procurement project

demands a thoughtful approach to managing catalog content. This session

will cover new alternatives available for delivering robust content while

minimizing catalog administration and overhead costs.

Marc Cagigas, Director,

Application Product

Strategy, Oracle

Wednesday

11:45 – 12:30 PM

Procurement and

Spend Analysis for

Oracle Applications

Do you have complete insight into your spend? Are you identifying and

exploiting cost-saving opportunities? Can you forecast your spending for

the next quarter or next year? Do you have a plan to optimize your

spend? With Oracle Procurement and Spend Analytics, your procurement

and line of business users will be able to quickly focus on opportunities to

reduce spend and monitor all aspects of the procurement process.

#OVCS


Track: E-Business Suite


Tuesday

1:45 – 2:45 PM

Advanced

Procurement

Strategy and

Roadmap

Procurement is one of the most important contributors to margin and

working capital. When organizations manage only a fraction of spend,

opportunities to improve financial performance are lost. When supplier

visibility and performance are unclear, supply base innovation is limited

and opportunities to deliver superior value are missed. Learn about recent

features, how they benefit critical business processes, and what lies ahead

on the product roadmap. This is the cornerstone session for Oracle E-

Business Suite customers interested in improving the procurement,

sourcing, and finance functions.

Paulo Black, Vice

President, Oracle

Tuesday

3:45 – 4:45 PM

Supplier

Management

Supplier Management is emerging as a critical area of focus for buying

organizations as they look to improve supplier performance, control levels

of risk, and minimize collaboration costs. All too often, a fragmented set of

tools and processes makes it difficult to synthesize supplier information

with the compliance, contracts, CSR/sustainability, relationship, and

performance details needed to unlock supplier value. And without a

focused approach to electronic collaboration, it's difficult to keep

relationship costs in check. Join this session to learn how Oracle’s E-

Business Suite Supplier Lifecycle Management, iSupplier Portal, Supplier

Network, and Supplier Hub improve both efficiency and insight about

suppliers for better performance.

Mark Peachey, Director

of Product Strategy,

Oracle

Tuesday

5:00 – 6:00 PM

Indirect

Procurement

High-performance procurement organizations not only target a high

volume of spend under management but increasingly guide the buying

experience for their users. Recent enhancements to the Oracle E-Business

Suite Advanced Procurement solution help direct users to preferred

catalog content even with dramatically increased catalog variety. The

simple user experience of iProcurement Extensions to Endeca improves

employee adoption, which drives contract savings. Indirect procurement

benefits can be accelerated further by related applications such as Services

Procurement, improving contract utilization and cost savings while

increasing supplier responsiveness to employees.

1:45 – 2:45 PM

Oracle Procurement

Cloud: Overview,

Strategy, and

Roadmap

Oracle Fusion Procurement applications represent an innovative shift from

traditional approaches to improving procurement through technology.

Learn how and why customers are adopting Oracle Fusion Procurement

today and the value they are achieving from interactivity, information

sharing, and collaboration. Understand how next-generation applications

for sourcing, contracting, self service procurement, purchasing, supplier

collaboration, and analytics can deliver to your organization value now.

Tom Anthony, VP,

Procurement Product

Strategy, Oracle

Tuesday

3:45 – 4:45 PM

Sourcing and

Procurement

Contracts in the

Cloud

This session will discuss approaches for managing sourcing and contracting

processes in the cloud, such as negotiating with suppliers and leveraging

templates, the terms and conditions library, authoring, compliance review,

digital signatures and integration approaches.

Cynthia Pavana,

Procurement Product

Strategy Director, Oracle

Mike O’Connor, Director,

Procurement Product

Strategy, Oracle

Tuesday

5:00 – 6:00 PM

Supplier

Qualification

Management: New

Capabilities for

Supplier

Management

This session will preview upcoming new functionality for managing

suppliers with Oracle Fusion. Learn how Supplier Qualification

Management can help you model and track important aspects of the

supplier's capabilities, qualifications, certifications, and risks, and then

leverage this data to get more value and better compliance in your supply

base.

Mike O’Connor, Director,

Procurement Product

Strategy, Oracle

Wednesday

1:30 – 2:30 PM

Fusion Inventory

Management in the

Cloud

This session will explore Oracle Fusion’s solutions for managing expensed

and indirect materials in the cloud for today’s procurement-based

organizations. The focus will be on the Fusion paradigms used to simplify

and empower materials management for both the casual user as well as

the materials management professionals.

Mike Lizio, Oracle

Wednesday

3:30 – 4:30 PM

Spend Analysis in

the Cloud

Interested in having better insight into your spend and savings

opportunities but don't have the IT infrastructure to support an on-

premise data warehouse? Oracle Procurement and Spend Analytics in the

cloud provides procurement and line of business users the ability to reduce

spend and monitor all aspects of the procurement process.

Director, Product
