Case
Oracle Audit
Resolution
Avoided $6M
shortfall
Background: The organization contracted our services, to get a clear overview of their Oracle usage across their IT environment and to determine the compliance position. They understood that Oracle licensing is extremely complex and due to the cost of licensing and support, a small compliance issue could easily result in significant financial exposure.
Business impact and results: Based on our analysis and subsequent recommendations, the customer was able to avoid $6M spend on additional license purchases and save another $2M in support costs.
If the organization had not invested in subject matter experts who understood the finer details of Oracle licensing and contracts, they would not have been able to defend audit findings.
