News facts

Internet Solutions (IS), a leading African Internet protocol-based service provider, has selected Oracle Fusion Incentive Compensation to align sales activities with business objectives and to use compensation plans more strategically.

The Oracle solution will reduce the administrative burden carried by IS' compensation, IT and sales teams, allowing them to focus on delivering strategic projects. Administrative resources allocated to calculate and manage commission payments will be able to focus on other departmental functions.

Another key benefit is the improved accuracy and auditability of compensation calculations, and the ability to access accruals, targets and payments at any time, from any location, on any mobile device.

IS selected Oracle Fusion Incentive Compensation as it fits the company's architectural landscape and compared favourably with competing products. IS will use the implementation of Fusion Incentive Compensation to gain experience in migrating its other existing Oracle services onto the Fusion platform.

Fusion Incentive Compensation will be used to manage compensation plans for both local IS sales teams within South Africa, as well as sales teams operating within the IS International regions.

IS is working together with the Oracle Collaborative Engagement Programme (CEP) team on the project. Oracle partner Xpedia is providing assistance with project management and implementation services.
