subject: PeopleSoft Now A Part Of Oracle - PeopleSoft Development & Implementation [print this page] PeopleSoft, now a part of Oracle, provides human resource management systems (HRMS) and customer relationship management (CRM) software, as well as software solutions for manufacturing, financials, enterprise performance management, and student administration to large corporations, governments, and organizations.
PEOPLESOFT Inc, the second largest enterprise application software vendor, has its development center in India and plans to add another 1000 to its head count this year as per the Hindu business line. This suggests that they plan to offload more development work to its centers in India. Currently, about 10 per cent of the company's product development is being done out of India through the partners. These centres have played a significant role in enabling PeopleSoft to lead the way in lowering cost and improving their customers' total ownership experience.
India as everyone knows has become the hub for outsourcing and PeopleSoft is no exception. Companies are now outsourcing their PeopleSoft development, management and implementation to companies in India with such expertise.
Companies that have been providing outsourcing services to their clients in the west have upgraded their services in not just providing implementation services but have also started to provide people with strong business acumen and the ability to identify and incorporate the process and business requirements into every implementation and integration project. Knowledge transfer and change management are critical components to a successful implementation, vendors have got people who understand the business in and out which is a big bonus in terms time savings as the clients do not need to spend a considerable time on this anymore.
