CIBER Launches ERP Implementations With Three Large County Governments
Greenwood Village, CO /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ CIBER, Inc. (NYSE: CBR) today announced continued success in the local government ERP space with new contracts at three county governments, all of which are in the top 65 in the U.S. These significant wins for CIBER are for consulting services to implement the Oracle® E-Business Suite and PeopleSoft software suites county-wide. The contract values each exceed $13 million and together represent $56.5 million in revenue for CIBER.
The projects are full Enterprise Resource Planning implementations and include implementations of the following applications: Human Capital Management (HR, payroll, benefits administration, absence management and time and attendance), Financials Management (general ledger, accounts payable, accounts receivable, contract management, grant management, projects, asset management, budgeting, purchasing/advanced procurement and inventory management). One project started in late 2008 and the other two commenced in 2009. CIBER is the prime contractor for each project, each of which includes change and program management, as well as functional and technical support.
At these county governments, the new Oracle ERP systems will enable transformation of business processes and will allow these counties to retire and decommission outdated legacy applications. They will also provide greater reporting functionality, budgeting capabilities, reduction of paperwork, and ease of integration to other applications.
"CIBER has successfully established a reputation as a leader in the public sector, and these projects just strengthen this position. We're excited to support three of the largest counties in the country, and we are using our proprietary public sector solutions for each," said Mike Dillon, Senior Vice President of CIBER's Oracle Practice.
One county official proclaimed, "We're implementing both Oracle Financials and Human Resources functions and we chose to work with CIBER because of their expertise in this industry. Our project is significant in scale and we are confident in CIBER's ability to execute. We look forward to improving our systems with this implementation."
CIBER's expertise in both local government and ERP implementations has been recently validated by The Black Book on Outsourcing, an independent global customer experience survey with more than 24,000 respondents. CIBER was ranked #1 in ERP implementations worldwide in the recently-announced 2009 ratings, and #1 in local government in 2008 (2009 government rankings not yet available.)
