The new Oracle ERP system will allow for transformation of business
processes and will replace Montgomery County’s current legacy mainframe
applications. The new system will provide greater reporting functionality,
budgeting capabilities, reduction of paperwork, and ease of integration to
other applications.

CIBER will serve as prime contractor for the project and will work with
selected partners in a collaborative manner to ensure the best results for
Montgomery County. The Oracle E-Business ERP solution will include
applications for (among others) payroll, benefits administration, personnel
administration, general ledger, accounts payable, purchasing, and contract
management. These solutions will enable Montgomery County to use one IT
system to track nearly all of its operational needs, thereby offering seamless
integration of data and business processes for all departments and personnel
in the organization.

The project is a major initiative which will significantly streamline
operations and increase business process efficiencies. Since the system will
provide many features and tools to support the new operations, CIBER will
employ its change management methodology to train staff on how to maximize
their use of the system and adapt to the new business processes.

“We’re honored that Montgomery County recognized CIBER’s leadership and
industry expertise for this important project,” said Russ Wheeler, President
of CIBER’s Enterprise Solutions division. “Montgomery County is making a
critical investment in its infrastructure and is embracing industry best
practices. We are confident these actions will help achieve and exceed their
goals of providing a high-quality, effective, and efficient business system to
not only their employees, but to the residents and customers of Montgomery
County Maryland
.”

Montgomery County has named the project “TransformMCG”. The vision of the
Transform MCG ERP initiative is to transform the way Montgomery County serves
its residents and customers by setting new standards for how government
operates.
