Enterprise applications management (EAM) - Xansa delivers ongoing operational excellence and stability through EAM, whilst recognising that Oracle e-Business suite and similar enterprise packaged solutions differ from traditional legacy environments due to:
- Business pervasiveness, complexity and dynamics
- High levels of integration
- Embodiment of best practice, but retaining the ability to tailor
- Continued product development and integration of acquisitions by the vendor
- Xansa's EAM operational service model provides a framework for the management of Enterprise application solutions. It applies equally to the support of both local and global systems.
Xansa methods for Oracle application delivery - Xansa and Oracle have agreed that there are benefits and synergies to be obtained from fusing the best components of Xansa's renowned delivery framework, "Method abc", with Oracle's AIM4BF (Application Implementation Method for Business Flows), consistent with PRINCE2 standards.
