LiTech Systems and DPIRD: A Case Study in Oracle E-Business Suite Excellence

Overview: 

The Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development (DPIRD), previously known as the Department of Agriculture and Food Western Australia (DAFWA), faced challenges in their Oracle E-Business Suite environment. LiTech Systems was brought on board to provide a comprehensive solution—from investigation to ongoing support.

  1. Investigation and Remediation: Conducted a thorough investigation to identify and resolve all issues in the Oracle E-Business Suite environment.

  4. Ongoing Support: Engaged in long-term support and resolution for key issues, demonstrating DPIRD’s trust in LiTech Systems.
