Oracle Open World 2009 was a first for the Public Sector SIG in that we were the first of the OAUG SIGs to ‘collaborate’ with our counterpart, Quest Public Sector SIG, in a joint meeting. It was very beneficial to both groups who began the meeting with general business and then introduced Oracle to update us on PS happenings.
Susan Logan, Executive Director, Public Sector Solutions, presented Oracle’s Acquisition Strategy, AppsUnlimited, and Oracle’s Footprint as relative to Public Sector. Please take a moment to review her presentation under the Events link.
Kathy Bush, Principal Customer Relations Sales Consultant, talked about the Customer Interaction Model. Kathy handed out The Resource Guide which is a compilation of customer programs and resources available to us, the customers, to assist with finding and accessing programs and resources supported by Oracle. It is a quick reference guide with working links and phone numbers, which should allow access to the resources easily. This Guide is also attached under the Events link.
General Elections were held for our group this fall. The new officers are:
Joe Holtz, City of Arvada Chair
Kathleen Fauerbach, City of Las Vegas Co-Chair
Andy Donovan, EiS Technologies Membership Chair
Linda Granger, City of Virginia Beach Past Chair
We are looking forward to Collaborate 10 in Las Vegas and hope to see you all there!
Kathleen Fauerbach, PMP
OAUG Public Sector SIG Chair
