How WillScot-Mobile Mini Utilized Enterprise Data Management for Business Transformation

-Hear the story of how two industry heavyweights, WillScot and Mobile Mini, joined forces to form an industry leader in modular space and portable storage solutions, and the role Oracle Enterprise Data Management (EDM) played in their business transformation! As if completing a large merger in the midst of a pandemic was not challenging enough, WillScot-Mobile Mini was also implementing Enterprise Planning Cloud at the same time.

In this session, we will take you through the steps of the Willscot-Mobile Mini journey including:

WillScot and Mobile Mini company background, current state, and merger
Aligning a Future State CoA from multiple current state CoA’s and disparate legacy ERP and - EPM systems
Challenges encountered with the original approach to CoA finalization and how EDM was able to help
How EDM was utilized in a phased approach to support both CoA finalization and Planning deployment
How EDM’s multi-purpose capabilities can help organizations:
1) TRANSFORM the business during significant events (mergers, acquisition, CoA design)
2) ALIGN the business with hierarchy management, compares, and business rules
3) RUN the business by streamlining the routine, day-to-day master data maintenance process

We will close with a summary of challenges, benefits, results, and lessons learned; specific EDM features that proved invaluable in managing the many moving pieces (especially during a pandemic); and next steps for Willscot-Mobile Mini and their EPM Cloud journey.
