Situation Before Oracle ERP Cloud at Calfrac

Calfrac relied on multiple standalone software applications for its back-office operations, and these disparate data sources made it difficult for leadership to fully understand the state of the business. Cross-platform processes were cumbersome and time-consuming, making it difficult to perform monthly close activities.

The client sought to replace its core systems with one integrated cloud solution to strengthen its foundation and modernize business operations. Specifically, Calfrac was looking to:

  • Adopt standardized best practices to manage financials, supply chain, transportation, projects, and human resources
  • Implement a single source of truth and provide real-time visibility into all aspects of the business to improve decision making
  • Replace disparate systems with a modern, global enterprise platform
