SUMMARY:BLUEPRINT 4D 2026
DESCRIPTION:C&A Technology will be attending BLUEPRINT 4D 2026, and we’re looking forward to being part of the conversation.\nThere’s something about this event. It’s not just sessions. It’s not just updates. It’s where JD Edwards teams actually talk about what’s working and what’s not.\nDallas sets the stage this year. A different city. Same idea.\nA few days away from the day-to-day. A chance to step back and look at your JDE environment a little differently. This year, the conversations are shifting. Less about features. More about outcomes.\n\n\n 	How do you manage complexity?\n 	How do you justify modernization?\n 	How do you stay in control as things evolve?\n\nWhat We’re Bringing to BLUEPRINT 4D\nWe’re presenting two sessions focused on areas most teams are already dealing with whether they’ve said it out loud or not.\n\n\n 	\n\n 	JDE solutions for Object Retrofits: Comparing UDC’s, Proc Options, Menus, DD Items in environments\n\n\n\nRetrofits tend to become a problem slowly. At first, it’s just a few differences between environments. Then more changes get layered in. Eventually, you’re looking at an upgrade and realizing you don’t have a clean way to determine what actually needs to be carried forward and what doesn’t. That’s where most teams get stuck\nIn this session, we walk through how to extract and evaluate object data directly from JD Edwards, and how to bring structure to something that usually feels manual and uncertain. The focus isn’t just on identifying differences, but on understanding them well enough to categorize effort, reduce risk, and make decisions with confidence. We’ll also share practical methods and scripts that teams can use to analyze their own environments and start closing those gaps.\n\n\n 	\n\n 	Building a Business Case for Modernization: Measuring ROI Through Your JD Edwards Upgrade\n\n\n\nThe technical side of an upgrade is usually manageable. Getting approval is where things slow down. Not because the upgrade isn’t needed but because the value isn’t clearly tied to business outcomes. Improvements like usability or visibility often get treated as secondary, even when they’re affecting daily operations.\nThis session focuses on how to reframe that conversation. Using a real customer example, we’ll walk through how operational inefficiencies were identified, how upgrade capabilities were mapped to measurable improvements, and how those improvements were translated into an ROI model that leadership could actually evaluate. It’s less about “why upgrade” and more about “how to make the case in a way that holds up.”\nRegister to attend CAT's Two JDE Sessions at BLUEPRINT 4D 2026\n\n\n 	\n\n 	Breakfast Session with C&A Technology\n\n\n\nBefore the conference begins, we’re hosting a breakfast session. And honestly, this is where some of the best conversations happen.\nSmaller group. More interaction. Less noise.\nRegister to attend CAT's JDE Breakfast Session at BLUEPRINT 4D\nJoin us for a focused discussion around JD Edwards strategy, real challenges, and what teams are actually seeing in the field.\n📍 BLUEPRINT 4D, 2026, \nMay 4 - May 7, 2026\nHilton Anatole, Dallas, TX\nIf you’re planning to attend, it’s worth registering early. Sessions fill up. The good conversations happen quickly.Register Now\n
