New ERA from JD Edwards and Paradigm Technologies

JD Edwards and Paradigm Technologies plan to share development and marketing of new upstream ERP solution. The new package will bring together JDE’s OneWorld system with PTI’s Excalibur software.

Paradigm Technologies Inc. (PTI) and JD Edwards (JDE) are teaming to integrate and market a new accountancy and Enterprise Resource Allocation (ERA) package. The new software will integrate PTI’s Excalibur Energy Management system with JDE’s OneWorld package. Target areas for the new development effort are joint-interest-billing, AFE, and reporting in both domestic and international contexts. PTI president Brian Searles said “The partnership with J.D. Edwards will elevate Paradigm’s premier upstream product offering into the major international and domestic upstream markets.

Paradigm can now offer a platform independent, enterprise-wide solution that melds our expertise with OneWorld to provide a fully multi-currency, multi-lingual upstream product that will bring benefits to both independent and major oil and gas producers throughout the world.”

Marketing of the new solution to the small and mid size US market will be performed by PTS while JDE will handle larger domestic accounts. International sales will be through JDE’s UK base. Arthur Andersen is helping out with product design and will be a preferred implementation partner for the joint solution in the international market.
