Oracle Enterprise Performance Management
Kovaion implements Oracle Cloud EPM across planning, consolidation, close, reconciliation and reporting, for finance teams that need trusted numbers sooner. Oracle Partner delivery, structured to put your first module live in 12 weeks.
The opportunity
Oracle Cloud EPM brings trusted data, connected processes and intelligent forecasting into one place. Here is what that makes possible, every single month.
Automated journals, orchestrated tasks and live status let you report while the numbers can still shape a decision.
Financial, workforce, capital and operational plans share one driver-based model, so the budget consolidates itself.
Board questions get answered the same day, with predictive planning showing where the trend is already heading.
Automated matching absorbs the volume and surfaces only the exceptions genuinely worth a person's attention.
Quarterly innovation arrives without an upgrade project, and there is no infrastructure of your own to run.
Governed hierarchies and shared metadata keep management, statutory and board views telling the same story.
Oracle Cloud EPM capabilities
Start with the process that hurts most, on an architecture that takes the rest without rework. Every engagement is scoped module by module, with a clear business case for each phase.
Replace disconnected spreadsheet models with driver-based planning that links financial, workforce, capital and operational plans.
Run a controlled group close across entities, currencies and ownership structures with a defensible audit trail at every step.
Move reconciliation from a spreadsheet chore to a controlled process, with automated matching and exception-only review.
Bring trusted numbers and written commentary into one collaborative, version-controlled reporting cycle.
Allocate shared costs transparently and see true profitability by customer, product, channel, branch or segment.
Govern the chart of accounts, hierarchies and reference data that every downstream report depends on.
Plan the shape of the workforce over the long range, matching skills, capacity and cost to where the strategy is heading.
Bring quota, territory and sales capacity planning into the same connected model as the financial plan.
Produce the tax provision and country-by-country reporting from the same trusted data that drives the statutory close.
Hyperion to Oracle Cloud EPM
Migration is the natural moment to modernise how finance works: simpler close steps, documented rules and clearly owned hierarchies. We move you to Oracle Cloud EPM with the design refreshed for how the business runs today.
Inventory applications, rules, integrations, reports and actual usage, including what can be retired.
Module mapping, phased roadmap, licence and effort estimate, and the value case finance can defend.
Configure in Cloud EPM, migrate history and metadata, then reconcile against Hyperion until results tie.
Go live on a close cycle, transfer knowledge, then retire legacy infrastructure and its running cost.
How we deliver
A fixed, finance-led delivery method. Every phase ends in something you can see, test and sign off, not a status report.
Process walkthroughs, data readiness, priorities and the outcomes finance will be measured on.
Target model, dimensionality, integration architecture and a phased plan with value milestones.
Iterative configuration with fortnightly showcases, source integration and security design.
UAT with real periods, reconciliation to existing results, performance and controls validation.
Cutover on a live close, role-based training, hypercare and a backlog for the next phase.
A live Oracle Cloud EPM module, reconciled to your existing numbers, with documented design, trained users, governed data and a costed roadmap for the next phase.
Ways to start
You don't have to commit to a transformation programme to find out where you stand. Most clients start small, prove the case, then scale.
Outcomes
Representative engagement profiles from the Office of the CFO: the shape of work we are brought in to do, and what improves once it is live.
A multi-entity manufacturer consolidating 40+ legal entities in spreadsheets moved to FCCS with automated intercompany elimination and a controlled close calendar.
Annual budgeting that consumed an entire quarter was rebuilt in EPBCS with branch-level drivers, workforce planning and monthly rolling re-forecast.
A legacy Hyperion Planning estate was assessed, rationalised and rebuilt in Oracle Cloud EPM, with a parallel run until every reported figure tied out.
Why Kovaion
Adoption is what turns an EPM platform into better decisions. We staff engagements with people who can hold a real conversation about your close calendar and your consolidation rules, not only your configuration.
Every design decision is traced to a measurable finance outcome, whether cycle time, accuracy, control or cost, and reviewed against it at go-live.
EPM rarely lives alone. Our ERP, HCM, APEX, analytics and OCI teams make it work as part of your wider Oracle estate, not beside it.
Qualified finance professionals alongside certified Oracle EPM consultants, so requirements are challenged properly before they become configuration.
Hypercare through a full close cycle, quarterly Oracle update testing, and managed support from the same people who built your model.
The difference was that they argued with us about the close calendar before they touched the configuration. We came out with a shorter close and a process our auditors were comfortable with.
Industries we serve
Oracle EPM, frequently asked
With the process where improvement pays back fastest, usually the close or the annual budget. We assess business priorities, data readiness and process maturity, then recommend a focused first phase that delivers visible value while establishing the architecture, dimensionality and governance the later modules build on.
Our QuickStart puts one module live in twelve weeks, and you see working configuration in fortnightly showcases from week three. An assessment engagement delivers a roadmap and business case in two to three weeks.
A phased roadmap works better. It delivers early value in one priority area while establishing the shared design, metadata and governance foundations that make each later module faster and cheaper to add.
Yes. Oracle Cloud EPM integrates with Oracle and non-Oracle finance, HR, sales, supply chain and operational platforms through Data Integration, REST APIs and file-based patterns. We design governed, repeatable data flows rather than one-off extracts.
We start from leading-practice configuration and tailor only where your business genuinely differs: your allocation logic, your close calendar, your reporting hierarchy. That keeps you aligned to Oracle's quarterly updates and able to adopt them easily.
It's a rebuild, and that's the opportunity. Cloud EPM is a different architecture, so we re-express your rules and models rather than copying them, retiring what's unused, documenting what's kept, and running in parallel until every reported figure reconciles to your existing results.
No. Historical data, metadata and hierarchies are migrated as part of the build, and reporting is rebuilt and reconciled before cutover. We agree the retention and comparability requirements at design stage, not at go-live.
Yes. We assess, optimise, automate and support existing Cloud EPM environments, typically improving close automation, reconciliation coverage, reporting quality, security design and user adoption without a full re-implementation.
Health checks, assessments and QuickStart implementations are fixed fee against a defined scope. Larger programmes are phased, with each phase priced on its own business case. Managed support is a monthly subscription sized to your close calendar and enhancement backlog.
Oracle Cloud EPM subscriptions are licensed directly from Oracle and are separate from our services fees. We size the subscription with you during the assessment so the business case reflects the full cost, and we can work alongside your Oracle account team.
Hypercare covers a full close cycle with the delivery team still in place. After that, managed support provides close-cycle cover, quarterly Oracle update testing and an enhancement backlog delivered in sprints, staffed by consultants who already know your model.
Yes, and we prefer it. Knowledge transfer is a delivery workstream, not a closing formality. Your team joins design sessions, build reviews and testing so they can own and extend the platform after handover.
