Giv­en today’s com­mod­i­ty price envi­ron­ment, man­ag­ing sup­pli­er costs asso­ci­at­ed with cap­i­tal projects and Lease Oper­at­ing Expense has become crit­i­cal. Meet­ing this chal­lenge with on-premise solu­tions can be dif­fi­cult due to data needs and man­u­al inter­ac­tions between oper­a­tors and sup­pli­ers. Using SAP® Ariba®’s cloud-based solu­tion and SAP as the foun­da­tion, Devon Ener­gy is dri­ving val­ue to our E&P busi­ness by pro­vid­ing auto­mat­ed price val­i­da­tion, more detailed vis­i­bil­i­ty of spend, and improved time­li­ness of cost realization.

Join us for this web­cast where Lane Hale, Direc­tor of IT at Devon Ener­gy, and Greg Dolezel, Senior Man­ag­er of IT at Devon Ener­gy, will take us through their jour­ney to imple­ment SAP Ari­ba as deliv­ered at from the event.
