Mutual of Omaha significantly reduced customizations, deployed Fluid for key functions like Approvals and Expenses, created custom Fluid Dashboards for areas such as Procurement Spend, used configuration and customization management tools like Page and Field Configurator and Event Mapping, applied branding using PeopleSoft Macro Sets, and used Selective Adoption to rapidly analyze the contents of new update images, prepare business cases for deploying new features, and updating test automation.
Mutual of Omaha has implemented a unique Selective Adoption strategy which they refer to as 'Wash, Rinse, Repeat'. As new images are released, they implement a rapid analysis of the new content, assess customizations that can be eliminated, prepare business cases for new features, update test scripts, and incrementally stage the scope for their next 'Get Current' update. By doing the analysis and prep work continually, they are able to execute their 'Get Current' project very rapidly. It also allows them to identify critical items that they might need immediately, which get on their daily work management board, and are deployed to production. Their 'Get Current' projects are every 12 - 18 months to enable the selective adoption of new features as they are delivered.
