TrueBlue Streamlines Operations with Oracle Fusion Cloud Applications

Oracle Fusion Cloud Revolutionizes TrueBlue's Finance and HR

  • TrueBlue Achieves 40% ROI through Oracle Fusion Cloud Applications implementation.

  • Centralized Finance and HR Processes Enhance Productivity and Reduce Costs.

  • Over 11,000 organizations opt for Oracle Cloud ERP and HCM Solutions.

TrueBlue, a leader in specialized workforce solutions, has automated its finance and HR operations using Oracle Fusion Cloud Applications Suite, resulting in a remarkable 40% return on investment (ROI). Leveraging Oracle Fusion Cloud Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) and Oracle Fusion Cloud Human Capital Management (HCM), TrueBlue has achieved heightened productivity, cost reduction, and enhanced business insights by streamlining and automating its finance and HR processes. This strategic move empowers TrueBlue to better assist its clients in achieving growth while addressing evolving workforce demands.

TrueBlue, dedicated to improving growth and performance by offering staffing, workforce management, and recruitment process outsourcing solutions, annually connects over 600,000 individuals with job opportunities. To tackle the challenge of managing 20 disparate financial and HR applications accumulated over several years through organic growth and acquisitions, TrueBlue made the decision to consolidate its finance and HR processes with Oracle Fusion Applications.

Derrek Gafford, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of TrueBlue, emphasized the positive impact of this transformation, noting,

Our legacy systems were a struggle to maintain resulting in unnecessary delays, which hampered our ability to innovate.

He added that with Oracle Fusion Applications, they had been able to bring finance and HR together on a single shared platform. He mentioned that this had helped them eliminate manual processes, improve the speed and accuracy of their business operations, and enhance their ability to meet demand. By implementing Oracle Cloud ERP and Oracle Cloud HCM, TrueBlue has realized tangible benefits, including automating billing to decrease days sales outstanding by 20 days and cutting three days from its financial close cycle. Furthermore, Oracle Cloud HCM has streamlined HR tasks, allowing employees to dedicate more time to achieving their career and growth goals.

Steve Miranda, Executive Vice President of Applications Development at Oracle, praised TrueBlue's approach, noting,

To efficiently support stakeholders and fulfill its mission to connect work and people, TrueBlue needed to streamline processes, consolidate systems, and embrace automation.

He added that with Oracle Fusion Applications, TrueBlue had been able to take advantage of Oracle's integrated suite of applications to bring finance and HR together. He noted that this had made a significant difference to the way TrueBlue ran its business and was helping the team drive innovation to better serve clients both in the present and the future.

Oracle Cloud ERP offers a comprehensive suite of enterprise finance and operations capabilities, encompassing financials, accounting hub, procurement, project management, enterprise performance management, risk management, subscription management, supply chain management and manufacturing. On the other hand, Oracle Cloud HCM provides market-leading features for human resources, talent management, workforce management, payroll, and the award-winning employee experience platform, Oracle ME. This transformative move by TrueBlue underscores the power of automation and integration in enhancing business efficiency and competitiveness. It exemplifies the benefits that organizations can achieve by embracing modern cloud-based solutions.
