Cellular South Chooses Oracle e-Business Suite and SkyBridge Global for Business Transformation
Atlanta, GA-June 21, 2007–Cellular South, the nation’s largest privately held wireless company has experienced tremendous growth since 1988 and has recently launched a transformation of all of their internal financial systems. As part of this transformation, Cellular South licensed Oracle’s eBusiness Suite of financial applications, and has partnered with SkyBridge Global for the implementation of these applications.
“Cellular South is overhauling their financial systems in a very rapid manner. The SkyBridge team is helping with the design, configuration, and training efforts to ensure that the applications are set up appropriately for today and for the future,” stated Michael Bellafiore, Oracle Practice Director for SkyBridge.
“Cellular South is excited about upgrading its financial systems to “Best in Class” applications and appreciates SkyBridge’s assistance in this effort” said Ben Pace, Vice President of Finance for Cellular South.
“This is a great example of a mid-sized organization leveraging Oracle’s market-leading technology and application solutions to truly integrate their financial operations across the entire company,” added Todd Murphy, Vice President of Business Development for SkyBridge Global. “Cellular South will completely transform their organization in less than one year (will actually take longer than one year to “completely transform”), and will be positioned to continue their history of solid company performance and growth.”
