Integrated Business Planning and Execution
Oracle Integrated Business Planning and Execution provides end-to-end planning capabilities for manufacturing companies, enabling them to achieve their long-, medium-, and short-term performance goals. Oracle’s solution uses the Internet of Things (IoT), artificial intelligence (AI), and prescriptive analytics to transform plans into execution. It provides a what-if analysis of future scenarios and evaluates the alternatives to maintain or improve the company’s business targets. Once a new plan is generated that incorporates this information, Integrated Business Planning and Execution transforms plans into action using enterprise execution systems.
