The widespread use of digital devices and applications raises the need for pervasive cellular coverage. However, the existing private cellular networks are not sufficiently scalable and economical to extend in dynamically changing indoor and outdoor enterprise environments. New network architectures are needed to deal with unique enterprise use cases and increase coverage and capacity without dependency on the underlying infrastructure. Are cellular mesh networks the answer to this challenge? Let's find out!Our guest for the podcast is Matt Musial, Solutions Director at GenXComm. He has over  25+ years of experience providing complex IoT, security, and wireless solutions to customers in industrial, DoD, SLED, and service provider markets.  In today's discussion, we will explore some important topics such as: -Do broadband wireless networks have adequate capacity for the needs of advanced applications like massive machine-type communications? -Can CBRS private networks provide adequate capacity and resilience for high volumes of data?-What are the implications of mesh networks for costs, capacity, resilience, and security?-What are the early use cases of mesh networks? 

The Hackett Group Solution Director Mark Eklund talks with Associate Principal and Consolidation Vertical Lead Brian Willson about the benefits of transitioning from Hyperion Financial Management to Oracle EPM FCC.Show Notes:Welcome to The Hackett Group's Business Excelleration Podcast, where - week after week - we hear from experts on how to avoid obstacles, manage detours, and celebrate milestones on the journey to world-class performance. Today's episode is hosted by Mark Eklund, Solutions Director at The Hackett Group. He is joined today by Brian Willson Solution Architect and Lead in The Hackett Group's Close and Consolidation practice. The discussion today is centered around the technology supporting the financial close and consolidation. This is a topic near and dear to both Mark and Brian, who have worked with many clients by supporting the last mile of the close of their corporate earnings and releases. To begin, Brian outlines the timeline of the technology supporting consolidation. Back in the 80s, a Windows-based product called Micro Control was developed. This became the market leader in terms of the consolidation space all throughout the 90's. In the early 2000s, the companies switched over to HFM, which is still widely utilized today. In the 2016-2017 timeframe, the decision was made to move to the cloud. Today, many clients are migrating from HFM to FCC. Relative to prior releases, one of FCC's biggest draw points is its ease of implementation. Oracle spent much time behind the scenes aligning their solutions in the cloud to very specific business processes. Rather than having a product which is highly customized, they opted to focus on each business process to create a market leading product. It took them a few years to achieve parity with HFM. By 2019, the things you could do in HFM were all available in FCC. At the beginning, it catered to small to medium companies, but now we are seeing companies in the $10+ billion range move to FCC. We've seen the account to report have become templated for a lot of companies. The migrations from HFM to FCC typically take half the time of a pure HFM implementation. Some clients today still feel hesitant about adopting cloud FCC. Brian entered consulting with an accounting background and reveals that accountants are typically quite conservative in nature. This is a large factor in the hesitance to make the switch as well as the messaging from the consulting side. The goal of this episode is to help people see the value in going from HFM to FCC. The cloud world has moved away from having one application to serve discreet business processes and transformed it into serving the users of each business process. This way, nothing is being compromised to fit all things for all users. Thus, companies aren't losing anything in the transition but actually gaining. Much of FCC's value lies in its enhanced offerings compared to HFM. All of the standards of HFM are included in FCC along with even more useful features. These features include a task manager module, which offers a single source of the truth for the close process. Also offered is a supplemental data manager for things like footnotes and disclosures. This leaves collected data centralized in one place, bringing a new value unseen in HFM. Finally, FCC offers enterprise journals which bridge the gap between the consolidation process and close activities. This allows users to post journals from FCC back to the ERP. FCC also brings improved cash flow. When building out the data model within FCC, Oracle saw an ability to automate cash flow. Their ingenious design created an additional dimension to house that information. A complete list of show notes is available here for download.

Des Ryan, Solutions Director for Microsoft Ireland, said: about digital security -> “Cyber hackers are opportunistic, skilled, and relentless. They have become adept at evolving their techniques to increase success rates, whether by experimenting with different phishing lures, adjusting the types of attacks they execute or finding new ways to hide their work. While our physical work locations may have changed, our responsibilities in protecting organisational data and complying to data regulations have not. Now is the time to address this with an increased investment in cybersecurity, secure devices, tighter policies, increased support, and education for employees so they can play an important role in not only protecting themselves but also their organisations.”
