LeanDNA vs. Oracle Fusion Cloud Supply Chain Management (SCM)

LeanDNA is a simple to use system, easy to implement, and has a very customizable analytics engine. As I continue to learn more about the dashboard I learn more of capabilities such as creating tasks and or lean projects. This is a one stop shop for all project management that is a capability you can use without even connecting your ERP to the system.

Oracle SCM Cloud is extensively used in my organization for a complete
Supply chain. We use all the Procure to Pay modules starting with
Procurement, Order management, and Financial modules. We also use Product
Information Management and Product Development Management modules to create and maintain items and products that we sell. These modules are interfaced with Inventory Management for shipping and supply chain demand and supply planning as well. Analytics is integrated with all these modules so it is very useful to keep track of metrics. However, if you are not using Sales Cloud and use another CRM system, there could be some hiccups in syncing the system if you don't have a middleware.

We had tremendous support from all of our account managers. The company was so keen on their customer feedback that the CEO, head of operations used to join our calls to get our feedback

The implementation process went very smooth. The upfront work from LeanDNA providing mapping data needed for our specific ERP system made the initial implementation seamless. After the data was collected the data validation process was very smooth. LeanDNA has a process that they follow in order utilize the time of the users efficiently. They provided step by step instructions on validation.

We have looked to test and pilot other tools and platforms but have not implemented as we down selected to use LeanDNA as the preferred tool.

Oracle SCM is best suited for Small & Mid Sized Business, whereas SAP SCM is best suited for large scale businesses. Oracle SCM has Customer Relationship Management (CRM) and Supplier Relationship Management (SCM) integrations which is missing in SAP SCM. Oracle supports modular integration and electronic data integration (EDI) which was one of the pre-requisites of the client.
