GCE, a leader in cloud-computing technology for enterprises, implemented a government agency-wide financial system overhaul within the Department of Labor in early 2010. Through this implementation, GCE has built a best-practice case for adoption, transition and implementation of cloud-based systems that can be applied to other enterprise-class systems. The mission-critical implementations include sensitive financial information management tools such as automated workflows, world-class reporting tools to provide immediate visibility to data, elimination of hardware, software and hosting management, flexibility and scalability as the user's mission changes, security and a quick ramp-up to launch, while staying on budget. Ultimately, the solution will enable an organization to focus on its core mission.
