Customer Story

Simplifying back-office systems

At Providence St. Joseph Health, employees had spent so much time navigating the organization’s outdated finance and HR systems that it cut into productivity—the organization had fewer resources to invest in its mission of providing free healthcare to underserved communities.

The nonprofit healthcare provider had grown through acquisitions, resulting in 14 ERP systems and fragmented, complex processes. It wanted to simplify operations, standardize processes, and, once that foundation is in place, take advantage of advanced technologies such as AI, machine learning, blockchain, Internet of Things (IoT), and robotics.

Providence St. Joseph Health decided to move to Oracle ERP Cloud and Oracle HCM Cloud because Oracle’s capabilities and roadmap aligned with the organization’s vision. The integrated ERP and HCM systems will deliver richer data insights, improve the end user experience, and provide the health system with access to a steady drumbeat of new capabilities and features.
