The project was undertaken as part of OXYGENE, a program Nickel launched in 2019 to modernize, simplify and harmonize its IT systems by migrating them to the cloud - helping ensure best practices for its financial management capabilities.

Accenture led implementation of the solution, leveraging the company's expertise in digital transformation, innovative methodologies for implementing Oracle Cloud solutions, and substantial experience in the financial sector.

Accelerate and standardize the production of customer accounts;

And many are deciding to begin this migration with ERP, understanding that the finance function is a critical component of the company's strategy and sustainability," says Eric Gatrio, Applications Leader for
