Case Study: Forbes Marshall achieves 30% performance boost and 50% time savings with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (Oracle)

Forbes Marshall gets 30% performance boost with Oracle Cloud

Forbes Marshall, a global engineering firm founded in 1926 that specializes in steam engineering and control instrumentation with manufacturing across five continents, faced growing strain on its business‑critical Oracle E‑Business Suite running for nearly 20 years on an IBM server. The aging on‑premises setup—large database, frequent upgrades, and limited scalability—left the company needing a secure, always‑available, and flexible infrastructure and prompted a move to infrastructure‑as‑a‑service.

Working with Oracle Consulting, Forbes Marshall migrated Oracle E‑Business Suite and Oracle Advanced Supply Chain Planning to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. The move delivered a 30% improvement in application performance and 50% time savings, enabled faster cloning and simpler upgrades, lowered total cost of ownership, and accelerated the company’s digital transformation and ability to innovate for its customers.
