The Electric Power Board of Chattanooga (EPB) had been working with an antiquated and siloed ERP system for all of its finance, HR, and payroll processes. The severely aged and disjointed software required time-consuming, manual processes across departments, lacked appropriate tracking and reporting capabilities, and was costing the organization significant resources to maintain.
EPB sought a single, integrated cloud solution to replace its outdated enterprise systems. The primary objectives of the project included:
AST has been very helpful in driving the project forward and assisting EPB staff with staying on task.

During this 15-month project, AST provided a robust, integrated ERP software set, combining finance, procurement, and HR into one modern, integrated solution with enhanced security.
In order to enhance the security of the solution, AST demonstrated that by adding Oracle Identity Cloud Service (IDCS) and Oracle Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB), the new system would be even better protected from intrusion by external and internal threats. EPB now operates on a highly secure, fully integrated, modern cloud ERP solution, resulting in the following key benefits for the organization:
AST’s expertise ensured a successful implementation of Oracle ERP Cloud, providing EPB greater efficiencies, cost savings, and overall improved business operations, resulting in greater customer and employee satisfaction.
