OATSystems Foundation Suite to Provide Oracle Applications Customers With Advanced RFID Capabilities

WALTHAM, Mass., – June 4, 2008 – OATSystems, a member of the Oracle PartnerNetwork, today announced a relationship to RFID-enable Oracle® Applications.

OATSystems has long been a leader in deploying RFID-enabled solutions in the retail, consumer product goods and industrial manufacturing segments. This relationship will enable Oracle customers to gain a new level of real-time visibility into Oracle’s existing suite of supply chain and retail applications. Oracle’s customers will gain the ability to improve operational precision with real-time edge process management and monitoring.

“One of the most challenging areas for businesses is obtaining accurate inventory and asset information,” said Paul Cataldo, vice president of marketing, OATSystems. “A recent industry study demonstrated that for certain industry segments, inventory information is often grossly inaccurate. RFID addresses this problem directly by providing enterprises with greater visibility and operational precision. The bottom line is that for most companies having the right assets in the right place at the right time saves money and increases sales.”

Oracle customers will benefit from OATSystems’ proven solutions in several industries and flexible deployment architecture. This deployment architecture, unique to OATSystems, enables businesses to deploy RFID business logic using a lightweight and low-cost infrastructure, while maintaining centralized management and control capabilities. It mirrors the business model and meets the IT requirements for many of Oracle’s retail and supply chain application customers. In essence, it enables businesses to improve local processes such as shipping and receiving while gaining integrated management and monitoring across multiple and remote sites.

“OATSystems RFID expertise and proven solutions will enable Oracle’s supply chain management customers to use real-time RFID data to improve edge processes and gain deeper visibility into their operations,” said Jon Chorley, vice president, product strategy, Oracle. “With these capabilities, our customers can save money through greater operational precision and the ability to transform business processes.”

Today, Oracle and OAT have joint customers such as Tesco and Best Buy among several others. This relationship will enable them to leverage combined strengths to deliver more value for their market leading customers.
