In 2018, Esh Group implemented Microsoft Power BI as part of an Analytics and BI program to deliver consolidated reporting for its Oracle Fusion Cloud rollout. The engagement ran from March 2018 to July 2018 in Durham, United Kingdom, and centered on delivering cross functional business intelligence for HCM, Payroll, Sales CRM, Procurement, Finance and Commercials modules.
The implementation combined Oracle OTBI and BI Publisher reporting with Microsoft Power BI visualizations and direct database SQL extracts. Core deliverables included BI reports and dashboards for Payroll Variance, Data Quality across HCM CRM Finance and Procurement, Actuals versus Budgets variance analyses, Absence Calendar, Headcount and Turnover trend reporting, workforce diversity breakdowns, starter and leaver analyses, HR template outputs in BI Publisher and multiple invoice formats.
Architecturally the solution leveraged Oracle Fusion R12 and R13 subject areas via OTBI and BI Publisher, alongside ODI and direct SQL for data extraction and complex data models consumed by Microsoft Power BI. Technical workstreams addressed BI Publisher data model development using SQL, creation of scheduled agents and IBOTs, custom SQL for flex fields, and collaboration with Oracle for service requests and workarounds, while Power BI was used for layered data visualization and stakeholder presentations.
Governance and operationalization followed structured deployment and support practices, including code promotion from development to test to UAT and pre production, system testing and support for user UAT, BAU incident handling under SLA, CAB approvals for changes, knowledge transfer sessions between project and BAU teams, detailed design and implementation documentation, and performance tuning of dashboards and SQL queries.
