Dedicated JD Edwards Track
While the keynotes will address cross-platform strategies, JDE users benefit from a full dedicated stream featuring:
- JD Edwards Roadmap Update | 11:00 - 11:45
Mark Herwege - Oracle & Christian Fronteras - Redfaire
Hear directly from the Oracle Product Team on future functionality, release timelines, and strategic direction for EnterpriseOne. You'll also get feedback from the Redfaire team on what we are seeing in customers regarding the adoption of new functionality. - Embrace JD Edwards EnterpriseOne as a Modern Digital Platform to help Reduce Technical Debt | 11:45 - 12:30
Rose Lane & Barry Yelverton - Redfaire
For many JD Edwards customers, years of custom development has created technical debt that makes upgrades feel impossible, and the ability to adopt a continuous improvement strategy seem out of reach. In this session, we'll share the latest capabilities from Oracle JD Edwards in Process Automation and Orchestrations, but also discover how smart low-code native Oracle Cloud Services can be deployed for workflow, integrations, mobile, and scanning requirements. - Elevate JD Edwards: Leveraging Oracle AI for Real Business Impact | 14:15 - 15:00
Vincent Casagrande - Redfaire
This session will present our AI / MCP Platform with a particular focus on some AI Use Cases for JDE, such as Speech-to-Task, Anomaly Detection, and Intelligent Predictions. Discover features and functionality you may be underutilizing, with practical guidance on driving adoption and measuring business impact. - JDE Customer Roundtable | Turning JDE Challenges into AI Opportunities: A Practical Discovery Framework for Oracle ERP Customers | 15:15-16:15
Vincent Casagrande - Redfaire & Srini Karri - AICOE
Oracle JDE customers frequently ask: Where should we apply AI first—and how do we know it will work? This session answers that question by walking through a hands-on AI Discovery Workshop that has been successfully used to identify AI opportunities in ERP environments. By sharing practical examples and lessons learned from real customer use cases, we will demonstrate how you can move from AI curiosity to confident, value-driven adoption within your Oracle ERP landscape. This will be an interactive session with discussions, feedback, and peer learning.
