By Heather Leed, Editorial Assistant Oracle has announced a series of rapid-deployment packages aimed to help companies implement Internet procurement solutions. The Oracle Internet Procurement Solution Bundles combine software, implementation services, education and support, and are tiered to the needs of different market segments. Oracle says the bundles have a defined scope, cost, and implementation time-frame suitable for any size company, and they are being delivered by Oracle Consulting. Additionally, three electronic catalogs can be purchased from Requisite Technologies that give online ordering access to computer equipment, office supplies, and industrial supplies. The Touchless Procurement, which can be implemented in 60-90 days, is an augmentation to the FastForward solution in that it grants suppliers Web access to a company's order information.
