Cedar Consulting has struck a partnership with US-based GreyHeller, in a move that will bring GreyHeller’s user experience and security solutions across the Atlantic to Oracle’s PeopleSoft customers in the UK.

We are proud to partner with GreyHeller,” said Simon Wragg, Director of Cedar Consulting. “PeopleSoft customers in the UK will benefit significantly from GreyHeller’s proven user experience and security solutions.”

Founded in 2012, GreyHeller is an IT consulting firm that provides specialised user experience and security solutions to clients running an Oracle’s PeopleSoft. More than 3 million users access PeopleSoft from their mobile devices via one of GreyHeller’s solutions (‘PeopleMobile), while it also protects nearly 2 million PeopleSoft users’ sensitive data from cybercrime through its ‘ERP Firewall’ solution. Among its roster of clients are organisations such as INSEAD, Wells Fargo, University of California, Verizon, General Electric, Pfizer, Unilever and Robert Half.

With the partnership, Cedar Consulting will be able to offer GreyHeller’s products in the UK market, as well as leverage the US firm’s solutions within its own implementation and managed services offering. “With over fifteen PeopleSoft 9.2 upgrade and implementation projects live, as well as many other 9.2 projects currently in progress, Cedar recognises the challenges clients are facing deploying mobile solutions securely and efficiently. Leveraging the partnership, we can now offer GreyHeller’s excellent solutions and services that will allow its clients to further optimise their PeopleSoft operations”, said Graham Smith, who leads Cedar’s Oracle team.

Among the clients Cedar Consulting is supporting in the field of PeopleSoft are Oxfam and Chivas Brothers. Earlier this year, Oxfam selected Cedar Consulting to oversee the move of its PeopleSoft HCM and Financials systems to the Azure cloud, while the premium whisky and gin company tapped the consultancy to help it with the upgrade of its PeopleSoft system to version 9.2. In addition, the Cedar team is supporting further integration between ELM and Profile Management in HCM to allow for easier identification of areas where staff require training.

Piyush Pandey, GreyHeller’s CEO, added “PeopleSoft customers in the UK require local services and support. As UKOUG Partner of the Year, Cedar Consulting offers best in class strategy, implementation and support services for UK PeopleSoft customers.”

To support the roll-out of the partnership, Cedar Consulting and GreyHeller are in the process of organising a series of events – webinars and user group conferences – for clients already running on PeopleSoft 9.2 or considering an upgrade in the coming period.
