Mr. Andre Spatz (UNICEF) announced recent progress made following a recent high level meeting with IBM. Reduced maintenance costs were agreed upon and opportunities to share savings with an estimated 75,000 user licenses across the system are now being investigated with the company.

Norman Sanders (UNDP) informed the meeting on the recent collaborations made between UN System agencies using PeopleSoft. The acquisition of PeopleSoft by Oracle presents other agencies (running Oracle implementations) with the opportunity to collaborate and bolster their influence on the vendor as they pursue new Oracle implementations, upgrades and releases. The meeting welcomed this initiative and recommended that further collaborations of this nature be encouraged.

Decision 8

It was agreed to hold the next meeting in New York prior to the HLCP meeting, which takes place in Rome in September. CEB Secretariat will consult the Network on the exact date and venue.
