THYSSEN KRUPP ELEVATOR RELIES ON ORACLE E-BUSINESS SUITE

Rolf Schwirz, Senior Vice President and Managing Director, Oracle Deutschland GmbH, commented: "ThyssenKrupp Elevator’s decision to rely on Oracle for their process optimisation strengthens our conviction that the best, professional performance is only possible with the corresponding tools. The Oracle E-Business Suite is a comprehensive, flexible and highly innovative solution with a proven track record of helping corporations to implement quality and efficiency gains in their daily work."

Robert Fleming, Senior Director, Applications Marketing, Oracle EMEA, said the decision by ThyssenKrupp Elevator to outsource its software management to Oracle was part of an overall industry trend. "Organisations across the globe are very interested in the substantial benefits offered by outsourcing Oracle software management to Oracle itself," he said. "We are serving over 250,000 end users in 25 countries in this way. These benefits include not only reduced IT costs but also faster, more proactive problem resolution, higher availability, change management and security.

"Physical location is immaterial. We can provide the outsourced service whether the computers reside at the customer’s location of choice or at Oracle’s own data centre, as will be the case with ThyssenKrupp Elevator."
