If you are a Game of Thrones fan, you are probably familiar with the “winter is coming” phrase. When it comes to Oracle Fusion, the Redwood experience has been coming for years, but now it’s almost here.
Oracle is in the process of overhauling the whole fusion suite with what they call the “Redwood Experience.” The newly designed Redwood pages are not only responsive and more powerful than their ancestors, but they bring great capability to the table.
- Redwood pages are built for the future. They are all AI-ready and some come with pre-built AI capabilities.
- They are geared toward a “Journey Guide” concept, so enterprise-level software implementations are no longer full of “technical jargon.”
- The new AI Studio and the Visual Studio give Oracle Fusion clients the ability to modify the application for their business needs.
How to Move Forward with the Redwood Experience
Adopting to Redwood is not a straightforward task. Every quarterly release, Oracle will add more and more pages with the Redwood design, but how do you adopt and take on to the Redwood experience and explore AI opportunities?
- First, deploy the setup screens where Redwood experience is available.
- Second, review quarterly updates and decide what screens are mature enough to be deployed.
- Third, review is the new design is beginning new functionality or lacking any functionality. For instance, Oracle Work Definition Redwood pages are bringing new functionality, whereas the newly designed Order Management pages won’t support certain flows. Having said that, Order Management screens brings so much when in comes to AI capabilities, if the “not yet available” features is not a business requirement, moving to the Redwood experience will bring efficiency in customer service and much better user experience.
- Fourth, have a game plan to roll out with your pace. With the cloud, you are in total control of how and when you roll out the SCM pages. According to Oracle, there isn’t yet a definitive timeframe that Oracle will make the Redwood pages mandatory (04/2025). Please note that some of the pages are already in play and some made have been mandatory.
User acceptance and adoption comes with time, so the sooner the transition begins, the more successful the implementations will go. Perficient can help you with your transition from traditional Fusion or legacy on-prem applications to the SCM Redwood experience. When you are ready to take the first step and you’re looking for some advice, contact us. Our strategy is to craft a path for our clients that will make the transition as seamless as possible to the user community and their support staff.
