Case Study: Gemeente Ede (Ede Municipality) cuts onboarding to 48 hours and streamlines HR with Oracle Process Cloud Service

Ede Municipality Strategically Shifts HR Processes with Oracle PaaS

Ede Municipality, a Dutch local government serving more than 100,000 residents with about 850 permanent and 200 temporary staff, faced fragmented HR data and slow, ad‑hoc onboarding processes that relied on legacy systems and Excel workarounds. The municipality needed a single, trustworthy source of HR information, better cross‑department collaboration, faster onboarding, and a solution that would not disrupt on‑premises systems.

Working with Oracle Platinum Partner Qualogy, Ede deployed Oracle Process Cloud Service and Oracle Database Cloud Service to consolidate HR data and redesign processes. The cloud solution delivered rapid deployment, mobile access, and stable performance; onboarding time fell from up to two weeks to within 48 hours, hidden staff capacity was unlocked for redeployment, and leadership gained a single source of accurate HR data to support staffing decisions — all without impacting on‑premises infrastructure.
