The alumni who built PeopleSoft, photographed mid-sentence explaining why your ERP doesn't have to fight you. Pleasanton, California - where the people who wrote the software came back to fix it.
EST. 2005 // PLEASANTON, CA // FILED JUNE 2026
An enterprise resource planning system is a building's plumbing - invisible when it works, catastrophic when it doesn't, and almost never installed by the people who designed the pipes. Smart ERP Solutions is the rare exception. Walk into their Pleasanton office and you find a room full of people who once sat inside Oracle and PeopleSoft, drawing the blueprints. Now they spend their days making those same systems behave for everyone else.
It is a strange and useful kind of homecoming. Most ERP consultancies learn the software from the outside, like tourists with a phrasebook. Smart ERP Solutions learned it from the inside - the CEO, Doris Wong, once ran Oracle's entire PeopleSoft product line as Group Vice President. The president and co-founder, Ramesh Panchagnula, was a technical architect at PeopleSoft before there was a company to consult for. When your ERP misbehaves, you can call a stranger. Or you can call the people who wrote the grammar.
There are two ways to make enterprise software fit a business. You can bolt on custom code that breaks every time Oracle ships an update - the expensive, brittle road most firms take. Or you can build configurable add-ons that extend the system without fighting it. Smart ERP Solutions picked the second road in 2005 and never looked back.
The catalog reads like a tour of every place enterprise software hurts. Cloud services across HCM, ERP, CX, and EPM. Oracle Cloud Infrastructure and Integration Cloud. On-premise support for PeopleSoft, JD Edwards, and E-Business Suite. "Lift and shift" migrations that move old workloads to the cloud - and, ideally, improve them on the way.
Then there is the unglamorous, indispensable middle: segregation of duties, security audits, compliance automation, Form I-9, E-Verify. The work nobody photographs for a brochure, and the work that keeps an institution out of court. Smart ERP Solutions does it without flinching, which is its own quiet form of marketing.
The flagship is Smart Onboarding - software that turns the new-hire paper avalanche into a single button. Pre-board, onboard, off-board; employees, suppliers, students. It is the kind of product that sounds boring until you have personally filled out a Form I-9 by hand.
Pre-board, onboard, and off-board people and suppliers - with Smart E-Verify and Smart I-9 built in.
HCM, ERP, CX, EPM, OCI, and Oracle Integration Cloud - implemented and optimized.
Implementation, upgrades, managed services, and add-ons from the people who built it.
Move on-premise Oracle workloads to the cloud - and improve them on the way over.
Business intelligence, analytics, and big data layered on top of your ERP data.
Segregation of duties, audits, ePar, and supplier diversity reporting - the work that keeps you safe.
Mythics' strong leadership and partnership with Oracle aligns with SmartERP services and solutions offering.- Doris Wong, CEO, on the April 2025 acquisition
A snapshot of the footprint - figures drawn from the company's own published materials, treated as approximate where the public record is thin.
The leadership reads less like a consultancy roster and more like a PeopleSoft alumni reunion - which is exactly the point.

Higher education, healthcare, finance, government, manufacturing - the sectors where an ERP failure is not an inconvenience but a headline. A sampling of named clients:
Recognized again with the Oracle PeopleSoft Innovation Partner badge for work with University of Florida Health and Roush Enterprises.
Announced April 24, 2025 - Mythics, LLC acquires Smart ERP Solutions to globally expand Oracle Cloud capability and 24/7 delivery.
CEO Doris Wong transitions to Executive Vice President, Chief Customer Success Advocate at Mythics.
Return to the office full of people who wrote the pipes. Twenty years on, the room has gotten bigger and the badge on the door now reads "SmartERP - Now Mythics." The acquisition in April 2025 folded the company into a larger Oracle practice, but the premise that started it in 2005 is unchanged: enterprise software should fit the enterprise, not the other way around.
That is the quiet trick of this company. It never promised to reinvent the building. It promised to make the plumbing invisible again - to take the system you already bought and make it stop fighting you. For 300-some institutions that can't afford a flood, that promise turned out to be worth more than a flashier one. The tourists with phrasebooks are still out there. Smart ERP Solutions just speaks the language.
Together our joined forces will offer scalability, and an expanded set of services delivered with excellence to our joint customers.- Paul Seifert, CEO, Mythics
