Strategic Workforce Planning Statement of Direction

Please refer to the Statement of Direction for Oracle Strategic Workforce Planning Cloud Service (SWPCS): Oracle Support Document 2963631.1 (Oracle Strategic Workforce Planning Cloud Service Statement of Direction). Oracle discontinued offering Strategic Workforce Planning Cloud Service (SWPCS) in September 2023. The replacement product for SWPCS is Enterprise Performance Management (EPM) Enterprise Cloud. There will be no loss in functionality with this change in product licensing. Strategic Workforce Planning is scheduled to be a separate application type within the EPM Enterprise Cloud Planning Business Process.

The timing of this change and discontinuation of old price list product numbers is September 2023. Customers should plan to replace their SWPCS subscriptions with EPM Enterprise Cloud. In order to avoid interruption to your SWPCS subscription, Oracle recommends executing a replacement order at least sixty (60) days in advance of the SWPCS Date of Termination. Customers should speak with their Oracle Sales Representative to prepare for this change.

You can migrate your existing applications to EPM Enterprise Cloud. See the Oracle Strategic Workforce Planning Cloud Service Statement of Direction for details.

Business Benefit: Oracle Strategic Workforce Planning Cloud customers can become familiar with the Cloud EPM readiness format in advance of the transition from Oracle Strategic Workforce Planning Cloud to Cloud EPM.
