Chief executive and president Steven Oakland, who took the CEO job in March, said: “The decision to close the Omaha office was a difficult one, and we are committed to assisting employees through this difficult transition. As we streamline our enterprise resource planning systems and near the completion of SAP order-to-cash conversions, it makes a great deal of strategic and financial sense to leverage our shared services capabilities across the company.”
