Europe's largest city council runs parallel systems to cover Oracle rollout mess
Birmingham City Council is running parallel systems to compensate for the troubled implementation of an Oracle system which will suck in £46.5 million in additional spending in the current financial year.
"The briefing I had was more about ensuring that the statutory reports the council has to give are given by… running parallel systems to ensure that all the financial reports are made. It is not actually fixing Oracle," he said. Birmingham City Council is the largest local authority in Europe by population, with around £3.4 billion in revenue per annum. It has been struggling with the project to replace SAP with Oracle's Fusion cloud system to support core HR and finance functions since 2018. The ERP project was reviewed in 2019, 2020, and again in 2021, when the total implementation cost for the project was put at £38.
