Between January and March this year, we have worked closely with representatives from across Imperial to align our Finance, HR, and Research Administration needs with best practices and fully adopt the benefits of the new Oracle Fusion system.
During this design phase, Process Outcome Designers and Subject Matter Experts participated in a series of workshops, to understand the new functionality on offer, share their expertise and Imperial experience, and shape design options.
Building on this work, which included developing processes, integrations, data structures, and reports, we are now moving into the prototyping phase, starting with Application Walkthroughs (AWT).
Oracle Fusion will replace ICIS and some other systems (including Teamseer and Talentlink) in August 2026. This means everyone in Imperial will use Oracle Fusion in the future.
What is Application Walkthrough?
Application Walkthrough offers all future users an early, tangible experience of Oracle Fusion, bringing the new system to life ahead of its launch. Our Application Walkthrough series will provide a guided experience through parts of the early prototype system and will help you begin to understand its key features, the opportunities it will provide and what its implementation will mean for you.
How can I get involved with Application Walkthrough?
Across the summer, all staff at Imperial will have the opportunity to see and hear more about the new system with our Lunch and Learn sessions.
Application Walkthrough Lunch & Learn sessions
We will publish new sessions and dates each month. The early sessions will provide an introduction relevant to the largest number of people. Later sessions will focus on specific activities so keep an eye out for additional sessions.
Note: these are early sessions to give everyone in Imperial a very early of the Oracle Fusions system. These are not training sessions – thorough training will be provided during 2026.
