DESCRIPTION

The world is presently experiencing an unprecedented level of adoption of all things mobile. Organizations are scrambling to carve out budget and adopt mobile based initiatives in an attempt to shore up competitive advantage and maintain connectivity with the modern day consumer. With such a diversity of our technology equipped consumers (from Baby Boomers to Z Generation), we need to now cater (not for the device) but for the event the device is being engaged with. Going mobile is not just about re- architecture our IT systems, but re-architecting how we engage our customers; this presentation, originally delivered at Oracle OpenWorld 2014, covers how National Pharmacies implemented their mobile strategy to increase marketing reach, better engage their customers and the benefits delivered.

Our procurement aim was a must that we secured a technology and partner that can sustain our objectives of leadership. Our evaluation criteria had to be forward thinking: 1. A technology that will reduce the time to write and deploy code. Support our people

from developer to problem solver. 2. Single ‘One’ environment of tools supporting our needs today, and be confident it will

keep pace with future technology trends. 3. Not just a good, but a great partner network 4. Technology that will be easy (low effort) to fit & fixture with our existing technologies 5. High credibility rating with network peers, past experience and partner networks 6. Security confidence ADF/FMW is simply our one environment for tools today, and tools yet to come. Oracle Partner, Rubicon Red, was that icing!. Rubicon Red had that 'real' experience to match our aggressive journey.

Our Result & Experience

We feel we have achieved a revolution as the IT Division (from contributor to leader) < 2013 Support the business 2013 Alignment with the business 2014 Enabling the business > 2014 Creating for the business As a result? Our ROI is the organisational shift The new ‘Retail Platform’ has generated a corporate rupture, returning business divisions back to strategic thinking on these new consumer channels. Oracle certainly likes to help you buy the new products. But our experience has enjoyed an Oracle that brings experts (with product), and accepts and talks my solution.
