Follow on Google News | HMS Joins Oracle Partner Network at Gold LevelHMS Software combines its long standing technical relationship with both Oracle and Primavera
By: HMS Software “Thanks to TimeControl, our timesheet product, HMS has a technical relationship with Oracle that stretches back over 12 years and a relationship with the Primavera line of project management products that goes back to 1997,” said Chris Vandersluis, President of HMS Software. “With the acquisition of Primavera by Oracle, we have been able to combine our participation in these two partner programs.” The Oracle Partner Network program is designed to provide independent software vendors access to technical resources so that these products can be better aligned for Oracle clients. HMS Software’s TimeControl timesheet product is able to take advantage of this in several ways. “TimeControl has always supported multiple database systems,” explains Stephen Eyton-Jones, HMS Software’s Director of Technical Services. “One of those databases has been Oracle which we have supported since 1997. Our long-standing partner relationship with Oracle has allowed us to test new versions of TimeControl on upcoming releases of the Oracle database. TimeControl also integrates directly with Oracle Primavera to link timesheet data and project planning data between the two systems. Now with Primavera being an Oracle product, we expect we’ll be able to create even more efficient links with TimeControl.” HMS Software originally became a Primavera Technology partner based on the integration of its TimeControl timesheet software which has pre-configured links to move data to and from Primavera’s project management products. Now Oracle Primavera clients who require more financially oriented timesheets or timesheets which are well suited for both payroll and project updating purposes can deploy the TimeControl timesheet and Oracle Primavera together. The bi-directional link between TimeControl and Oracle Primavera allows for project, task and resource information to be moved from the project managements system and actual hours, costs and task progress to move from TimeControl back to Oracle Primavera. TimeControl’ “We expect that our new relationship with Oracle will result in even tighter integration with the Oracle Primavera system but also with other members of the Oracle family,” says Vandersluis. Some of the clients who have already adopted TimeControl to work with Primavera's systems include the Atlanta Hartsfield Airport, Koch Industries, Opal-RT, Schering-Plough, Acergy, San Mateo County and Lockerbie and Hole. Some of TimeControl's value-added benefits when linking with Oracle Primavera include: Multiple Rates per employee, simultaneous support for multiple versions of Oracle Primavera and matrix organization approvals with HMS Software's unique Matrix Approval Process for Labor Actuals™. This process allows both departmental supervisors to approve hours and costs with an unlimited number of approval levels and for project managers to be able to verify and if required, redistribute accepted hours before they are transferred back to Oracle Primavera.
