Case Study: Thermo Fisher Scientific achieves rapid, large-scale product launches with Oracle Cloud PLM (Oracle)

Thermo Fisher speeds product launches with Oracle Cloud

Thermo Fisher Scientific, a $30B biotechnology tools company with more than 80,000 employees and 24 divisions, faced the challenge of continuously launching tens of thousands of new products to meet fast-changing scientific needs. Growing through acquisitions and relying on rapid innovation, the company needed a scalable, cloud-based product lifecycle management (PLM) system to unify business units and accelerate time to market.

Thermo Fisher implemented Oracle Cloud Product Lifecycle Management—supported by Birlasoft for product master data management—choosing the cloud for its scalability and automatic updates. The move enabled a dramatic increase in launch capacity (targeting up to 50,000 SKUs in weeks versus up to nine months previously) and now impacts more than 5,800 employees, delivering the speed and scale required for the biotechnology market.
