Hormel Foods Moves to BI Publisher, Chooses AventX to Deliver Purchase Orders

Hormel Foods Corporation (Austin, MN), manufacturer of high-quality, brand-name food products worldwide, will use AventX to automate fax and email delivery of 700 purchase orders daily.

Hormel evaluated their existing fax solution and decided it was time to move away from third-party forms packages in favor of Oracle’s own BI Publisher, which they already had in-house. The organization began searching for a fax and email delivery solution that integrated with BIP and offered reporting back into Oracle as well as the ability to automatically deliver attachments with purchase orders.

After attending STR Software’s webinar titled “Moving to BI Publisher – Now What”, Hormel recognized the AventX Oracle Connector as the only solution to meet all of their business needs. As an additional bonus, AventX was able to integrate with the existing RightFax fax server, allowing Hormel to leverage that investment.
