The State of Oregon is seeking a cloud-based Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) solution to replace its current Oracle PeopleSoft application. This new system will encompass advanced analytics capabilities, including multi-variant forecast modeling for improved scenario and sensitivity analysis across the ERP platform.

Key requirements include comprehensive data management features, such as robust data dictionaries, establishment of golden records, data lineage tracking, and enhanced data certification to support overall planning and implementation. The selected ERP solution should enable automated alerts driven by flexible business rules—such as monitoring spend versus forecast and conducting threshold analysis—to optimize organizational responsiveness.

Change management is a critical focus, with an emphasis on deploying clear and consistent best practices to ensure successful transition and adoption, as measured by program KPIs. Additionally, the solution should be prepared for integration of advanced functionalities like artificial intelligence to support future decision-making and organizational agility. The ERP system is expected to serve users across the enterprise, fostering location independence, increasing staff self-sufficiency, and reducing dependence on IT teams.
