The Challenge
Utah Transit Authority sought to upgrade their JD Edwards EnterpriseOne environment to enhance performance and leverage the latest features:
Migration from TR 9.2.6.3 to 9.2.8.1 to access new functionality and performance improvements
Upgrade from Microsoft SQL Server 2016 to 2022 for improved security, performance, and supportability
Maintain the core application on 9.2 update 6 without disrupting existing business processes
Execute the upgrade without significant downtime to transit operations
The Solution
Allari's CNC team and Project Manager collaborated closely with key UTA team members to orchestrate a zero-disruption upgrade:
- → Upgraded TR from 9.2.6.3 to 9.2.8.1
- → Maintained application on 9.2 update 6
- → Validated all custom objects and modifications
- → Ensured compatibility with existing integrations
- → Migrated from SQL Server 2016 to 2022
- → Performance optimization throughout
- → Security hardening and compliance alignment
- → Comprehensive testing and validation
- → Dedicated CNC expertise throughout

- → Proactive issue identification and resolution
- → Accelerated timeline through expert execution
- → Post-cutover monitoring and support
