Services

Deep specialists in every corner of Oracle licensing.

Six practices, one discipline: we read the contracts, measure the estate, and put the evidence on your side of the table. No software resale, no Oracle partnership — advice only.

Oracle negotiation advisors and independent Oracle license consultants lead every engagement — buyer-side only.

SERVICE / 01

Effective License Position

You cannot manage — or defend — what you have not measured. We build a verified, audit-grade baseline of your Oracle estate: every deployment discovered, every entitlement reconstructed from contracts and order documents, every gap and surplus quantified in money, not licenses.

What you get

  • Full deployment discovery (on-prem, VM, cloud)
  • Entitlement reconstruction from contracts
  • Gap & surplus analysis priced in currency
  • Java, Database, middleware & apps covered
  • Board-ready summary of exposure
  • Remediation plan ranked by risk
Typical duration 4–8 weeksFixed feeOutput: ELP report

Audit Defense

An Oracle audit is a process you can manage — if you control the data, the timeline, and the narrative. We run the engagement end-to-end so nothing leaves your network unreviewed and every finding is challenged before it becomes a claim.

What you get

  • Audit-notice response & scoping strategy
  • Review of all data before submission
  • Script output validation & correction
  • Findings rebuttal with evidence
  • Settlement strategy & resolution support
  • Post-audit compliance hardening

Java SE Licensing

Since the per-employee subscription metric, Java is the single fastest-growing licensing exposure in most enterprises. We measure your actual Java footprint — versions, installations, usage — and design the cheapest compliant path, which is often not a subscription at all.

What you get

  • Java discovery across the whole estate
  • Employee-metric cost modelling
  • OpenJDK / alternative runtime migration plan
  • Legacy-license and NFTC qualification review
  • Negotiation support if subscribing is right
  • Ongoing Java governance policy
Typical duration 3–6 weeksAvg. result: 50%+ exposure reduction

ULA Advisory & Certification

An Unlimited License Agreement is only a good deal if you exit it deliberately. We manage the full lifecycle — entry negotiation, mid-term deployment strategy, and the certification count that locks in your value when you leave.

What you get

  • ULA entry & renewal benchmarking
  • Deployment maximization strategy
  • Certification counting & evidence pack
  • Cloud deployment treatment (OCI / hyperscalers)
  • Post-ULA license management plan
  • Renegotiation if a ULA no longer fits
Start 12+ months before expiryOutput: certified position

SERVICE / 05

License & Support Optimization

Oracle support typically grows 3–8% a year while usage shrinks. We identify shelfware, over-provisioned metrics and unused options, then restructure licenses and support streams so spend tracks reality.

What you get

  • Shelfware & unused-option identification
  • Support stream restructuring analysis
  • Metric right-sizing (procs, NUP, users)
  • Repricing & migration scenarios
  • Third-party support feasibility review
  • Multi-year cost roadmap
Typical saving 20–40% of annual spendSelf-funding in year one

SERVICE / 06

Cloud & Hybrid Licensing

Every cloud counts Oracle licenses differently — and the rules change. We model BYOL versus license-included versus exit for each workload so cloud decisions are licensing decisions, made with full information.

What you get

  • Authorized cloud policy interpretation
  • BYOL vs license-included modelling
  • OCI / Azure / AWS vCPU counting review
  • Licensing impact of migrations & DR
  • Cloud contract clause review
  • Hybrid estate governance model
Per-workload analysisCovers OCI, Azure, AWS, GCP
