Client is a leader in life sciences, diagnostics and applied chemical markets, and provides laboratories worldwide with instruments, services, consumables, applications and expertise. They are headquartered in California, and are global leaders in the lab equipment space. The organization decided to split into two separate companies, and a new electronic measurement company was formed as part of this divestiture.
Scope for the divestiture included -
There were challenges related to Oracle Setup Migration as a result of the divestiture due to a large set of Validation / Security /Profile Needs. The organization did not have the manpower or the time for manual executions. The need for automation was huge.
Also, variations between the two target instances in terms of differences in Reporting and Functional Currencies, Financial Structures, and Business Processes led to complexities that posed roadblocks to a successful data migration strategy. The transformations and mappings were far more complex than initially anticipated.
Technically, the biggest challenge that lay ahead was the 8,000 cross-validations, 10,000 security rules & 40,000 profile options that were mandated by the organization. This meant that an agile method had to be adopted, wherein the emphasis was on continuous improvement.
The accelerated timelines meant that a flexible & robust platform was central to this project’s success.
ChainSys tools dataZap was configured for repetitive use in multiple instances and multiple test cycles.
dataZap’s preconfigured templates automated extraction of Setups directly from the Oracle EBS source system and also allowed for the thousands of validations, security rules, profile options & data transformations to be incorporated within the tool.
A Gold Setup hub was created that was used to split the company and generate the Setups for the divested business unit.
dataZap eliminated programming, was simple to deploy, and enabled the organization to overcome setup migration challenges by creating multiple Setup environments during the conversion process, resulting in an accelerated deployment.
