She has the depth of knowledge, the technical expertise, the business acumen, and a range of experience in companies from start-ups to the Fortune 50. As Oracle’s first applications consultant in 1988, Abrams also has the technical and functional knowledge of how to align Oracle E-Business Suite with business strategies.

  Andy Harriss

  Andy Harriss is Strategic Developer Manager for 2e2 and has been working with Oracle E-Business Suite since 1994. During that time, he has worked in a variety of roles including business analyst, technical developer, project manager and program manager. Much of his role was focussed on developing methodologies for implementing, upgrading and managing E-Business Suite, enabling the organizations he worked for to gain significant competitive advantage.

  As part of this role, one of the key developments was ConfigSnapshot, the most comprehensive and flexible configuration management software available for E-Business Suite. Originally developed as part of an enhanced implementation methodology, it proved so successful with customers that it was extended to become a standalone product that customers could take advantage of for themselves across the entire E-Business Suite lifecycle. ConfigSnapshot is now used by over 200 organizations as well as many implementers and system integrators to enhance their own methodologies.
