Oracle Case Study: Ford Motor Company

Overview The problem faced by Ford Motor Company was running a disparate combination of local and regional accounting systems that created architectural and administrative barriers to the smooth operation of Ford's global nuances. Ford needed a new, consolidated solution to standardize and streamline global financial business processes and achieve a single version of the financial truth for consistent data and actionable business insights. The company overcame this problem by upgrading and standardizing on PeopleSoft Enterprise Financial Management Solutions to establish global accounting processes with a single database. PeopleSoft helped Ford establish a common chart of accounts with consistent financial business processes, accessible on a browser, across 22 countries in more than 120 locations.
