Oracle Primavera P6 and Unifier Achieve UK Cyber Essentials Accreditation

Demonstrating Oracle's commitment to delivering secure, compliant systems, Oracle Primavera P6 SaaS has become the first construction and engineering project management and collaboration software to achieve Cyber Essentials and Cyber Essentials Plus accreditation in the UK. Oracle has also secured Cyber Essentials Plus accreditation for its capital program management and project controls solution, Oracle Primavera Unifier. These SaaS solutions are components of the Oracle Smart Construction platform and are built on the performance and security of Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI).

The accreditations come from a scheme backed by the UK government that is certified by The Information Assurance for Small and Medium Enterprises Consortium. Cyber Essentials provides an assurance framework and security controls to protect information for agencies of any size against an array of cyber threats.

Oracle Primavera P6 SaaS connects office and field teams who plan and build physical assets and infrastructure projects. By uniting delivery teams around a single execution plan, the solution helps standardize best practices, identify and manage critical risk factors, and synchronize resources within and across engineering and construction projects. The applications are deployed in Oracle Cloud for UK Government and Defence, a sovereign, dedicated dual-region cloud that is distinct from Oracle's commercial public cloud regions. Oracle Government Cloud regions are built specifically to support the regulatory, security, and compliance requirements of government operations.

"Oracle Primavera solutions help businesses and construction teams increase coordination, control, consistency, and compliance at every phase of a construction project," said Mark Webster, senior vice president and general manager, Oracle Construction and Engineering. "This Cyber Essentials certification can give our clients peace of mind that we are always working to ensure they stay protected against the growing sophistication and frequency of severe threats."

Primavera Unifier, meanwhile, can help companies improve their forecasting accuracy, contract administration, cash flow control, and cost and funding management by implementing a companywide project- and portfolio-level system built to connect interdependent functions such as funding, budgeting, contracts, procurement, and change management. With robust cost controls and schedule milestone tracking, Primavera Unifier supports advanced capital planning, project execution, cross-project oversight, and asset management.
